My Second Husband novel Chapter 79

Eudora could not stand the boredom as she couldn't do anything in the hospital.

She finally convinced Aunt Valerie to let her leave the hospital.

Aunt Valerie had prepared a lot of good food, but they couldn’t finish them at all.

In the evening, Eudora was lying in bed but she couldn't fall asleep. She had never felt this bed was too big for herself.

She took out her cell phone and looked at Amos’ number before she turned her phone off again.

She thought to herself that he might be busy and she should not disturb him.

Eudora forced herself to fall asleep by closing her eyes tightly as she still had to work on the next day.

Someone hugged her from behind when she was in a daze.

His scent made Eudora's heart skip a beat. She froze.

His chin rested on her shoulder. She could feel the stubble on his cheek. For some reason, her heart ached for him. She turned around and held his face.

She whispered, "What's wrong?"

He didn't answer her. His lips mashed against hers.

He kissed her passionately and hugged her tightly. If it weren't for him being apart from her for the past few days, he wouldn't have realised that he would be so reluctant to leave her.

Eudora hid in Amos’ arms after half an hour of cuddling. She couldn't fall asleep.

Amos caressed her arm. "You've lost some weight..."

"No, I didn't!" Eudora's nose twitched while she quickly turned around.

After a moment of silence, Amos said, "There's something I want to tell you. It is about my trip to America this time."

She had been waiting for him to talk about it.

Her heart was pounding as she looked at Amos expectantly.

'Ringggg!' Amos' phone rang out of a sudden. His face darkened after he picked it up.

He answered, "I'll be right there."

He got up and put on his clothes.

He disappeared from the room in a split second.

Eudora's heart sank, again. She felt that things had changed for some reason.

She stared at the ceiling until dawn.

Aunt Valerie had advised her to rest for two more days at home. But, she didn't listen to her and went straight to the company after breakfast.

Her project was almost finished. It took her a day to finally complete the draft.

She would not have the time to overthink if she was busy. She saw a rather familiar car at the entrance when she left the company.

The Old Master walked out of the car with a crutch while Eudora looked at him in surprise.

It had been more than a month since she last met him. Thousands of possible reasons of him coming to her ran through her mind.

The Old Master's assistant came over to her.

Eudora took a deep breath and followed him.

The Old Master questioned, "What is Amos doing these days?"

Her eyes flickered. "I don't know."

"Really? You are his girlfriend and yet you don't know. I thought you were reliable, so I gave my permission to you to stay with him and take care of him. But now it seems that you care for your work more than him. Then let me ask you, what's the purpose of your existence?"

The Old Master was furious. His words were hurtful.
