My Second Husband novel Chapter 616

Eudora was dumbfounded and glanced around subconsciously.

"Juju, tell me, who made this dish?"

Juju blinked and said, "Mommy, this dish is made by... me, of course! Did you think it was Daddy? Do you miss him?"

After Juju finished speaking, she deliberately glanced at the half-closed door at the back.

She was sure that Amos hadn't left yet and was standing behind the door. If Daddy knew that Mommy cared and missed him as much as he missed her, wouldn't the misunderstanding between them be resolved?

Eudora didn't know what to say. Did she miss Amos?

She should miss him, right? However, under these circumstances, she had to take over the Holt family's affairs. Notably, all the Holt family's subordinates thought that it was Amos who killed Tyler.

At a time like this, she could not make any contact with Amos.

"No!" Eudora shook her head and continued to eat.

Amos laughed bitterly as he stood by the door. He knew that she was heartless.

Juju was a little disappointed and pretended to sigh heavily, looking like an old woman trapped in the body of a young girl, "Alas! It's tough to understand adults!"

Eudora was obviously in love with him, but she still said things that she didn't mean.

Juju was feeling a bit tired. Hence, she leaned on the sofa and yawned.

Eudora was just about to finish her meal, so she walked over and stroked Juju's back. She laughed, "Are you sleepy? I'll bring you home to sleep first!"

Juju's eyes were half open as she said drowsily, "Mommy, are you going to sleep as well?"

Eudora shook her head, "I'm sorry, Mommy can't rest now. There are still many documents waiting for me to read."

Juju shook her head firmly.

"Then I shall stay here to keep Mommy company."

Eudora had no choice and replied, "Then, just close your eyes for a while. Mommy will cover you with the blanket."

Juju wanted to shake her head and refuse, but her heavy eyelids were almost glued together. Before Eudora could finish speaking, Juju had already fallen asleep.

Eudora chuckled and draped a blanket over Juju, allowing her to sleep more soundly.

Then, she yawned and rubbed her eyes to keep her awake. She sat back at the table and resumed looking through the documents.

However, she was feeling exhausted. She hadn't slept a wink since whatever happened to Tyler the day before. Today, she hosted a funeral and hadn't rested ever since she came back. She was already feeling very drained.

However, she continued to persevere.

Amos stood outside the door and looked at her haggard face.

He secretly grumbled, "Little fool, I care about you so much and hate to see you get hurt. But you insist on taking on the Holt family's mess and ended up tiring yourself..."

Eudora yawned again. She closed her eyes and picked up the phone to set an alarm for five minutes.

She was so worn out that she needed a five-minute rest so she could concentrate on her work again.

After setting the alarm, she rested her head on the table. She was so tired that she fell asleep the moment she closed her eyes.

Amos waited for her breathing to become heavier before slowly pushing the door open and tiptoeing in.

The closer he approached her, the clearer he could see the dark circles under her eyes. Amos frowned and reached out to rub her cheek.
