When Elaine followed him out, she saw Sawyer carrying Eudora.
Elaine was stunned and hurriedly came up to him, "What happened to her?"
"Maybe she's drunk!"
Elaine immediately became furious, "Those people really are too much! How can they treat a woman like this? Fortunately, we had gone just now. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."
As soon as Elaine finished speaking, she felt a cold aura emitting from Sawyer's body.
In the blink of an eye, the chill disappeared.
Elaine blinked her eyes. She must have made a mistake!
In Sawyer's arms, Eudora was still muttering to herself. Elaine listened to her words carefully and instantly felt moved.
"I've heard stories about Mr. Granger and Miss George. They were a loving couple! I envy them the most. I thought they would last forever, but life is so unexpected. I have her assistant's number. Why don't I ask him to send her home?"
After saying that, Elaine got ready to grab her phone.
However, Sawyer said in a cold voice, "If her assistant comes, he'll definitely send her home. She has two kids at home. It's not good for her to go back like this."
Elaine's finger paused, "What you've said makes sense. Then, what should we..."
"Let's bring her home with us first!" said Sawyer as he walked over and got into the car.
Elaine looked at his back and was stunned for a moment.
She asked in astonishment, "How did you know that?"
Elaine and Sawyer were neighbors. After they arrived home, Sawyer opened the door and carried Eudora inside.
She was drunk. Additionally, she was sick too. She looked like she was not in good health.
Elaine said in a hurry, "I have some cooling patches at home. I'll get them."
Sawyer ignored her and carried Eudora straight into the bedroom. Elaine walked to the door and turned back, "Sawyer, don't go overboard! If you harbor the same thoughts as the men at the banquet, I'll despise you!"
Sawyer's footsteps paused. In the end, he placed Eudora on the sofa.
Elaine smiled and said, "I knew that you weren't that kind of man."
Sawyer looked at the woman in his arms with his heart empty.
It was just that he realized that she might feel awkward after waking up, so he put her on the sofa.
After she laid down, Sawyer grabbed a wet towel and wiped her arms and face to cool her down. Since she was drunk, he could not give her medicine.
So, he went to the kitchen and made some ginger soup. It was more exquisite than the one in the banquet hall.
He did not want the taste of the ginger to be too strong, so he added other ingredients into it. Not only would it not affect the healing effects, it would also be delicious.
After he was done, he quickly came back and helped Eudora to sit up straight.
"Come on, drink it."
Eudora did not say anything at first. Now that she had been woken up by Sawyer, she suddenly began to mutter in a daze.
He leaned closer to listen and instantly felt a lump in his throat. His heart was aching.
She kept saying, "Amos, I'm so tired. Ever since you passed on, I've been all alone. I'm really tired."
Sawyer clenched his fists then loosened them.
After a long time, he answered in a low, hoarse voice, "I'm here, I've always been here."
As if Eudora had found comfort, she grabbed his wrist with both hands and gradually calmed down.
Then, he fed her the ginger soup bit by bit before putting down the bowl.
