Tears were a magical thing. They could be held back, but there will be no control over them once they begin to fall.
Eudora held Juju in her arms, tears streaming down her cheeks.
At this moment, the sadness, grievance and tiredness she had been experiencing turned into tears that flowed down her cheeks.
Juju pursed their lips tightly into a straight line and looked eerily similar to Amos. Her behavior was the same as her father's.
She was motionless as Eudora held her in her arms and continued to cry.
The people who had been urging Eudora for favours exchanged glances with each other when they witnessed this.
"No, Miss. You have to sign my agreement first..."
"Get out!"
Juju roared suddenly. She covered Eudora's ears while glaring at those people sharply.
All of them initially assumed that Juju was no more but a six year old child. There was nothing for them to be afraid of.
However, her words and glares were a reflection of Tyler's elegant demeanor back in those days!
As expected of the Holt family's child!
Several people were so scared that they fell silent immediately and trotted out to wait instead.
When Eudora was done venting her feelings, she wiped away her tears and looked at Juju.
"Sorry, I am an incompetent mom."
Juju shook her head. There was a hint of a smile on her tender face.
"Daddy said that everyone can be weak sometimes. Mommy, you are also a human, so why can't you be weak? You have me. When you're weak, I will definitely stand behind you and support you."
Eudora felt emotional again. She managed to hold back her tears with great difficulty, but they were threatening to fall again.
Fortunately, she managed to control herself.
After calming down, Eudora realized, "Why are you here, Juju?"
"Who brought you here? Where's Sugar Bun?"
Juju's lips curved into a smile as she said, "Don't worry, Mommy. Sugar Bun is doing well because Uncle Wesley is taking care of him.
As for who brought me here, I'm sure you can guess!"
Eudora recalled Amos' familiar face and immediately fell silent.
Juju looked at Eudora curiously and asked, "Mommy, didn't you and Daddy make up already? Did you quarrel again?"
"Children like you won't understand the world of adults, so don't ask."
Juju pouted in dissatisfaction. She wanted to say something, but she remembered Amos' order asking her to take good care of Eudora. Hence, she decided to keep her word and stopped asking.
With the Holt family's current situation, Eudora knew that this wasn't the time for her to act willfully. She calmed herself down, quickly called the people in, and continued to look through the documents.
Juju had nothing to do, so she took a look around and quickly slipped out of the room.
The sky was already dark, and the whole yard was quiet with no signs of human activity. A small figure ran through the garden and out the gate.
When she gently pushed the door open, Juju poked her neck out and glanced around outside. Finally, her attention fell behind a bush and she called out softly.
"Daddy!"
Upon hearing this, Amos walked out from behind the bushes.
He thought that Juju had encountered something bad, so he looked anxious and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with Mommy?"
Juju shook her head and explained, "It's not that. Mommy is just very busy and there are a lot of people looking for her to sign documents. She's been so tired that she cried!"
Amos frowned and snorted, "Who are they?"
