My Second Husband novel Chapter 567

Then, Hodge paused for a moment.

Eudora held her breath and asked instinctively, "What happened after that?"

"After that..." Hodge sighed heavily. "After that, Mr. Holt took three bullets from the boss. His life was on the line. In the end, it was Mr. Nolan who saved Mr. Holt. He received treatment for half a year before he could be considered healed."

Unfortunately, not long after Mr. Holt's disappearance, Madam Emily found out that she was pregnant. So, she accepted her family's arrangement to be with another man..."

Eudora frowned. "Another man? Was that..."

Hodge nodded and said affirmatively, "That's right. It was precisely the man on your mind."

Eudora gawked at Hodge in utter shock. She felt as though her mind was overloaded and she couldn't process the information quickly enough.

"You're lying to me!" Eudora said in disbelief.

Hodge smiled calmly and responded, "Miss Eudora, you entered that small house the other day, didn't you? That must mean that you have seen everything that Mr. Holt prepared for Madam Emily. He actually had the opportunity to take her away after that, but his boss was still searching for him since he had escaped death. He did not want Madam Emily to be in danger, so he gave up in the end.

Mr. Holt still regretted it to this day, even after Madam Emily had passed away. In all his life, I could tell that the most regretful thing he ever did was not taking Madam Emily away at the right time.

In fact, he had asked me many times whether it would be better for Madam Emily to be with Gordon. Then, it turned out that he was wrong about everything. That was why, from then on, he became very aggressive and stubborn.

Underneath it all, it is only because he is afraid of losing his loved ones!"

Listening to Hodge, Eudora's heart was a little unsettled. She had hated Tyler all this time, but after learning the past that he had gone through, she felt that Tyler was a little pitiful.

He couldn't be with his beloved one, just like how she and Amos couldn't stay with each other. However, on second thought, she uttered, "Is he separating me from Amos because he could not be with my mother?"

Hodge suddenly choked at this statement. He said helplessly, "Miss Eudora, in fact..."

"I don't want to hear it!" After that, she turned around and went out.

Hodge wanted to catch up, but after just two steps, he staggered again. In the end, he dared not go up to her.

Eudora took a stroll in the front yard and arrived at the backyard unknowingly. The door of the small house was not locked, and it was slightly ajar.

Eudora stood outside. Through the crack of the door, she could see Tyler sitting on the couch in the living room. He was looking at a portrait in front of him.

Eudora did not see the portrait when she entered the room that day. Now, it seemed that the portrait was probably a projection.

The portrait was of a young Emily.

Tyler's eyes were fixed on her as though he was looking at a rare treasure.

"Emily, did I make the wrong decision?" He asked from time to time.

The woman in the portrait had a gentle smile on her face. However, she would never be able to answer any questions he asked.

A moment later, Eudora heard Tyler sobbing alone in the room.

Such a high and mighty man was crying like a child.

Eudora was stunned for a moment. She then turned around and returned to the front yard.

It was not until lunchtime that Tyler finally came out of the backyard. As he walked past the living room and was just about to head upstairs, he saw Eudora carrying the dishes out of the kitchen.

There was a smile on Hodge's face as he said, "Mr. Holt, Miss Eudora has personally cooked this today. Why don't you give them a taste?"

Tyler glanced at Eudora subconsciously, and he realized that she was just as indifferent as she was before. However, he also felt that there was something different about her.
