Amos had carried her up in his arms before she could say anything.
"Don't touch the computer for the time being. Lie down on the bed and rest for a bit."
He then instructed Charlie to give Helen a call.
Eudora wanted to protest, but she seemed to lose the courage to do when she saw the expression on Amos' face. He really was worried about her, so all she could do was to cooperate.
She lay on the bed obediently and looked at Amos holding her hand.
If one were to take a look at his expression, they would have thought that she was suffering a terminal illness instead of just having a common cold.
Eudora suppressed the urge to laugh, "Hey, don't worry. It's just a cold, it's not as though I'm dying ... "
Her remaining words were muffled because Amos had already covered her mouth with his hand.
"Don't speak of such nonsense."
Eudora blinked a few times and stuck her tongue out to lick his palm. It felt a little ticklish.
Amos shivered. He looked at her helplessly, "Stop messing around! Just close your eyes and have a rest."
"You'd have to keep me company then!" Eudora said.
She felt as though Amos had become the typical male lead in a romance drama. If she did not pay any attention to him, he'd probably imagine all sorts of scenarios that were next to impossible!
Amos was more than happy to oblige, so he quickly removed his coat and lay down beside her.
He opened his eyes after Eudora had fall en asleep, and he looked at her peaceful face quietly .
Helen arrived soon after, having rushed all the way here.
She thought that something serious had happened, but she realized that Eudora only had a mild fever after examining her.
Helen sighed in relief before speaking.
"It's not a serious matter. It's probably because the weather hasn't been too great lately, so she caught a mild cold. Everything.s fine. She doesn't need to take any medication. It would be better to cool her down physically and let her eat some warm food."
Amos frowned. "Is that all we need to do? Will the cold affect her and the child?"
Helen replied helplessly, "No! It's normal for humans to get sick and expecting mothers would tend to fall sick easily because their bodies' immune systems would decline during pregnancy. Don't worry about

I t.
Amos' expression darkened.
"Are you saying that Eudora got sick because of the child?"
Helen did not know how to explain it better, so she merely nodded.
"You could say that."
Amos finally stopped talking. He stared at Helen again and got her to repeat the things that he had to take note of three more times before finally letting her go.
Helen immediately gathered her items and left Clearwater Bay in a hurry.
She was worried that Amos might think of another question and forced her to stay and answer each of his queries.
It turned out that this cold and indifferent man was horrible whenever he started nagging. However, in another way, one could say that Miss George was extremely blessed.
Helen had been a doctor for so many years, but she had never seen a man who was so concerned about his wife's pregnancy .
Eudora felt as though someone was stroking her belly as she woke up in a daze.
The movement was very light and gentle, as though the person was touching a precious gem.
It made her feel very warm and secure.
