The little baby in her belly seemed to have heard Amos. Its protruding little foot slowly retracted.
Soon, there was no more movements.
Eudora touched her stomach gently before speaking with a frown plastered on her face.
"Don't say that. The child's prenatal education is crucial. Although he is only six months old, he could still hear our conversation! He'll be very sad if you're behaving this way. What if he becomes a selfabased child in the future?"
Amos gave a wry laugh, "I don't want to know what he will be like in the future."
Because without her, nothing else mattered.
However, he couldn't seem to say those words out loud.
Eudora looked at Amos in shock, her eyes slowly filled with disappointment.
"Oh."
After that, she turned around and did not look at Amos again.
She didn't know that Amos already knew the truth that she'd been hiding. He resented everything that affected her health.
She thought that she had concealed it very well.
Amos had told her from the very beginning that he did not like Sugar Bun. She figured that he was starting to despise her too...
Originally, she had been feeling a little down after that incident. If it was in the past, she would have already thought of leaving.
However, she could not do the same this time around.
She only had so little time left. She had to give as much hope and love to the child while she still could.
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Her tears started falling non- stop. She wanted to wipe them away, but they did not stop.
The more she wiped them away, the harder she cried. Her tears were like a broken pearl necklace, its pearls falling everywhere on the ground.
Amos regretted what he said earlier. He was supposed to be the one who knew her best in the world.
She was willing to sacrifice her life to keep their child because she loved him so deeply.
He opened his mouth to apologize. However, anger was still lingering in his chest. He was afraid that his words might hurt her again, so he tried to calm down and remained silent.
He turned around and wanted to go out for a walk. However, just as he turned around, he noticed that her shoulders were trembling and tears were falling from her eyes.
Amos held his breath, and the anger he felt suffocating his chest just a moment ago dissipated in a heartbeat.
He turned around hurriedly and wrapped his arms around Eudora's waist. He didn't expect her to be so mad this time. The moment he touched her, she pushed him away.
Amos stepped forward, and she moved a little to the other side.
They repeated this several times. Amos didn't dare to go near her again. He was afraid that she would hurt herself if she dodged him further.
Amos just stood there and looked at her petite frame from the back.
"Eudora, I was wrong!"
The little woman, who was sobbing quietly, suddenly burst out crying.
She covered her face and complained loudly.
"Amos, you're a j*rk!"
"Yes, I am. I'm sorry!" He watched her cry, worried that the poison would spread more rapidly if she was so emotional.
Therefore, he should not provoke her further.
"You hate me, I understand. I know that you loathe me and that I shouldn't expect too much. Don't worry, I won't be a burden to you. If you don't want Sugar Bun, then I won't keep it either!"
She had made up her mind, but after she said that, more tears rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably.
