My Second Husband novel Chapter 643

Fabian was planning to plant a goodbye kiss on Eudora's forehead, but he didn't expect that she would dodge at the very last second.

His arms stiffened slightly before he chuckled. "You don't have to thank me from now onwards. Take the flowers. See you tomorrow!"

Eudora reached out for the bouquet and said, "See you tomorrow!"

She breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the roses in her hand after the car drove away.

Weren't the flowers supposed to be endearing and lovely? Why did she feel that they were offensive instead?

At this moment, Juju's voice rang out from behind her.

"Mommy, you're back!"

Eudora turned around and pulled the little girl into her embrace, "Have you had your dinner?"

"Yes!" Juju nodded. "Uncle Hodge got the kitchen to cook lasagna today! But it's still not as delicious as yours, Mommy."

Eudora used to cook often, but she didn't have time for that ever since she took over the Holt family's business.

"I'm sorry. Since it's the weekend tomorrow, I'll rest at home and make you your favorite dishes, alright?"

"Really? I want lasagna and nuggets. Oh, right, and Daddy's favorite brussels sprouts too. It would be great if Daddy and Sugar Bun could have a meal together with us too!"

Eudora's heart skipped a beat, and she replied lightly,

"Sugar Bun can't consume rice yet, and your Daddy is quite busy!"

"Oh," Juju responded, disappointment evident in her voice. Her attention was soon diverted to the flowers in Eudora's hand.

"Are those roses from Uncle Nolan, Mommy? Are you dating him now?"

Eudora choked, "Juju..."

Juju didn't complain about it. Instead, she said, "You're an adult now, Mommy, so it's up to you to decide, but Daddy and I will always protect you!"

Eudora didn't expect Juju to say such wise words.

She felt a lump forming in her throat in an instant. "Actually, I'm not in a relationship with Uncle Nolan. I'm-"

She just didn't want to hold on to that person all the time. She would only be hurting herself if she did not move on. It was just too distressing.

She thought that things would take a good turn if she took a step forward, but it seemed that she was wrong.

Juju patted Eudora's back. "Mommy, let's go home!"

"Sure!"

They then went back hand-in-hand. Eudora glanced at the roses in her hands and eventually threw them into the trash can outside.

Eudora slept in the next day after a sleepless night.

The sun was already shining through the curtains when she got up. Eudora woke up and lowered her head to kiss Juju's forehead, who was still sleeping.

She recalled her daughter's words from the night before and ignored the complicated feelings brewing in her heart. She got up to prepare a meal.

As she was preparing the ingredients, she saw Hodge scurrying in hastily.

"Miss Eudora, Mr. Clarke is looking for you. He's waiting in the living room outside."

Eudora continued with her motion and chuckled, "Why is an old man like him still busy on the weekend? Pour him some tea and ask him to wait outside for a while. I'm cooking today, so I'm going to treat him to a meal."

Hodge was flustered. "Miss Eudora, I'm afraid that this matter is urgent!"

Eudora paused. She quickly cleaned up and followed Hodge out of the kitchen.

Mr. Clarke was pacing back and forth angrily in the living room. Seeing that Eudora was finally there, he stepped forward quickly.

"Miss Eudora, Amos has crossed the line! He has gone too far!"

Eudora's heart skipped a beat. "What's wrong?"
