My Second Husband novel Chapter 473

On the third day, Doctor Chilton and others increased the dosage for the medicine again. At that point, Eudora started to realize that something was off.

Although the doctor had already explained to her that she just needed more rest to speed up the recovery, it was impossible for Eudora to not notice anything at all. After all, it was her own body.

At this moment, Amos reached out and patted the top of her head.

'Are you still sleepy?"

Eudora shook her head and answered, "I've slept well!" However, as soon as she finished speaking, she gave a big yawn.

Thinking about what Doctor Chilton had said earlier, Amos caressed her cheek with his hand and asked, "Remember the delicious beef stew you mentioned the last time? Cindy has already brought it here. Would you like to have some?"

Eudora nodded. She tried to regain her energy and replied, "Okay! I'd love to have some."

As expected, Cindy entered the ward as soon as Amos had finished speaking.

She held a pot of beef stew and said, "Mrs. Granger, do have some stew before you go to sleep!"

"Give it to me," Amos took the stew and poured it into the bowl. Then, he took the spoon and fed it to her.

"How does it taste?"

Eudora took a sip and realized that she could only taste bitterness! It was as though everything had tasted bitter no matter what she ate.

"What's wrong?" Amos asked worriedly.

"Oh, it's nothing!" Eudora shook her head in reply. "It's so delicious that I'm savoring it bit by bit!"

"Since you like it, I'll ask Cindy to bring it over every day!" Amos exclaimed. He then scooped up another spoonful of stew for her.

Eudora couldn't handle the bitterness after a few sips. However, she didn't want Amos to be disappointed, hence she came up with an excuse.

"Could you help me get a towel? I'll drink it myself."

Amos placed the spoon down into the bowl and went to the bathroom.

As soon as Amos left, Eudora quickly poured the bowl of stew into the garden behind the window. Then, she lay back on the bed and took the towel from Amos' hand.

'Tm done with the stew!"

After that, she began to feel sleepy again. Amos' heart wrenched. Her eyes were teary as she had yawned too much.

He felt as though his heart had been stabbed by a knife.

"Why don't you rest for a while more?" Eudora nodded and let Amos tuck her into bed.

His phone rang at this moment. Amos was about to decline the call when Eudora said hurriedly, "I think that you should just answer it! It could be an urgent call for work."

Amos had been staying in the hospital for the past few days to keep her company. Because of that, much of his work was delayed. Even if there were really urgent matters to attend to, he would always ask Clint to send the documents to the hospital. Not only that, he would refuse to answer any phone calls so that her rest would not be disturbed.

"I'm really fine," Eudora's eyes were gleaming brightly, "If you don't go to work, Sugar Bun and I are going to be upset!"

Amos sighed and replied, "Okay, I'll go. I'll be back soon!" After thinking for a brief moment, he said, "Cindy will keep you company."

"Okay!" Eudora said as she let him tuck her in and watched him walk out of the ward.

Eudora felt drowsy and went instantly went to sleep as soon as the door was closed.

However, she didn't fall into a deep sleep. She could hear Cindy's footsteps as she did her errands. She also heard Cindy and Doctor Chilton talking to each other.

"Is Mrs. Granger already asleep?"

"Yes! Mr. Granger said that we could start after he returns in five minutes!"

She also heard another nurse's voice saying, "Everyone in the operating theatre is ready! They're just waiting for the patient to be wheeled in."

Eudora's heart skipped a beat. With an unknown source of strength, she instantly opened her eyes.

"What did you say? Who's going for an operation?"

Everyone didn't expect Eudora to wake up all of sudden. Doctor Chilton didn't know what to say at the spur of the moment. Doctor Leon, who was behind him, tried to ease the situation quickly.

"Eudora, you probably just had a dream. Nothing's happening."
