My Second Husband novel Chapter 626

Eudora felt some dampness on her shoulder when she was hugging Juju.

Flustered, she grabbed Juju's shoulders anxiously.

"I'm sorry, Mommy, but you should not have come back so late!"

She had initially thought she came home slightly later than usual, but she didn't know that Juju had been waiting for a long time.

Juju sniffed and said, "I tried to call you many times, and Uncle Hodge had helped me to call you several times too. Mommy, I thought that you have abandoned me."

Eudora's heart tightened. "No, I would never do that. How could I?"

"But everyone said that it was Daddy who hired someone to kill Grandpa. Mommy, you and Daddy are never getting back together again, right?"

It seemed that she knew about this matter too!

Hodge explained hastily, "I'm sorry, Miss Eudora. I did not expect Miss Juju to overhear the maids talking at the garden today. They didn't intend for this to happen..."

Eudora frowned. "Go back to work!"

She glanced at Juju seriously after Hodge left.

"Juju, listen to me. Even if your Daddy and I can't be together, all of this will not change either. I am still your mother, and he is still your father!"

Juju stared at Eudora blankly. "Really?"

"Of course! We will always be a family. Even if there is something between your Daddy and me, it has nothing to do with the both of you!"

"But..." Juju furrowed her brows tightly. "Daddy would never hurt Grandpa! Back then, when you came back with Grandpa, I once said that it was Grandpa's fault for taking you away. Daddy taught me that Grandpa is still your father. Therefore, no matter what happens, I still have to respect Grandpa."

Eudora was taken aback. She never knew that Amos would say something like that.

She stroked Juju's head and nodded. "I understand now! I will keep your words in mind, Juju."

Meanwhile, Fabian was standing in front of the window as he held a glass of red wine with his long, slender fingers. He looked at the night scene outside the window and enjoyed the occasional sip of dry Cabernet.

Standing next to him was his lawyer, Skye, who was also holding a glass of wine in his hand with a smile.

"Mr. Nolan, I have turned the tables around as you wished. Are you satisfied with the outcome?"

Fabian hummed as a reply. "Quite satisfied indeed. It seems that it was the right decision for me to have placed my trust in you."

"Thank you, Mr. Nolan!" Skye chuckled, "Mr. Nolan, you are such an outstanding talent. I've clearly seen it this time around. Just a few days ago, people were saying that the Nolan Family would have absolutely no way out this time. But you've already turned the tide within a few days, Mr. Nolan. I really admire you!"

Fabian snorted. "There's no need to say such nonsense. I will arrange for the rewards you deserve. However, there is still one matter that you haven't done enough!"

Skye was dumbfounded. "I don't understand, Mr. Nolan."

Fabian smirked. "Do you not know that you could also kill a person with words instead of using a knife?"

Skye's eyes lit up. "I understand! Rest assured, Mr. Nolan. I will definitely make things work!"

Fabian didn't add anything further. He replayed the change in Eudora's expression when she heard the news that it was Amos who killed Tyler, in his head.

Even to point of time, she was still in denial.

Their feelings for each other were enviable.

Eudora didn't believe it because he was the one who broke the news to her. Would she continue to deny it if the whole world were to sing the same song?

Eudora woke up early the next day and sensed an awkward atmosphere in the house. Not a single person glanced her way. It was as though they were trying to avoid her.
