My Second Husband novel Chapter 687

At this moment, Eudora's hurried footsteps could be heard coming from outside the door.

Juju's entire body stiffened. She immediately turned around and said, "Daddy, your baby is back..."

She immediately turned back and hugged her brother, and they began to play games in the living room.

Amos could tell that something was off.

However, he didn't think too much about Juju's unusual actions now that Eudora was back.

He missed her even though she had only been away for a few hours.

He walked out quickly and looked at Eudora with a smile after tidying up his clothes in front of the mirror.

"Slow down, don't worry."

The next moment, Eudora had already grabbed onto his arm. "Amos, how could you treat the children like that?"

Amos was very baffled.

How was he treating the children?

His brain worked fast. After Eudora left in the morning, he had prepared breakfast for the children, helped them dress up, and then accompanied them to read. Now, they were playing games.

Oh, that was right.

He went out to make a phone call in the afternoon and was on the phone for half an hour.

Amos closed his eyes. "It's probably something about the phone call..."

"I knew it! Children are naughty at times, so we should teach them patiently and reason with them, shouldn't we?"

Amos nodded. "Yes!"

"You used to love them very much. Why are you doing this now?"

Amos frowned. It was just a phone call. Was it that serious?

"If such a thing happens again next time, I won't forgive you! You've committed domestic violence! You are not allowed to do this again!"

Amos was bewildered by her statement.

He knew he needed to explain himself. "Since when did I do that?"

After a slight pause, he added with a smile,

"The actions on the bed don't count!"

Eudora was furious.

"You! How dare you talk about this now?! I've just received a call from Juju, saying that you were hitting her. She was crying so bitterly, how could you do that?"

Amos recalled how Juju had hugged his thigh, and their conversation earlier, and he finally understood.

"Juju!" He shouted.

The two little kids were eavesdropping behind the door. "Sugar Bun, this seems bad."

Sugar Bun seemed oblivious of the situation and he started giggling.

Juju covered his mouth hurriedly and picked him up. "The opponents seem to be irritated. We've been discovered. Let's hide!"

Amos had already stepped forward and grabbed onto Juju. "Tell me, what's going on?"

Juju covered her mouth and replied, "I won't say anything even if I were to be beaten to death."

Eudora's eyes widened. "And yet you said that you didn't hit her!"

Amos was perplexed.

"I really didn't hit her!"

All of a sudden, Eudora heard a line from the show that was playing on the TV. "I won't say anything even if you beat me to death!"

Eudora was mystified by the actor's line in the movie.

Upon closer inspection, Juju and Sugar Bun were both wearing a hat. Was this a cosplay?

Eudora frowned. "Juju, why did you lie?"

Juju pursed her lips. "I'm playing a game with Sugar Bun. He misses you, Mommy!"

She then lowered her head dejectedly. "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"

Eudora's heart stopped for a moment. All of her anger immediately dissipated because of Juju's words.

She held both Juju and Sugar Bun in her arms. "I'm sorry, I'm the one in the wrong."

She hadn't been there when the children were growing up. It was not unusual if they didn't feel bonded with her, resulting in such a scene.
