Eudora's heartbeat echoed in his ears.
Her heartbeat was rapid and full of life.
Eudora asked again, "Do you still dare to say that it's not skipping a beat?"
In the next instant, Amos raised his head and kissed her again.
"Let's make it beat a little more rapidly then!"
Downstairs, in the living room.
Upon coming out, Gordon saw the two children playing. He walked over and stroked Juju's head.
He asked, "Where are your parents?"
Juju immediately gave Gordon a sweet smile.
"Grandpa, I'm grateful that you told me that they were quarreling. Sugar Bun and I helped them though. Currently, they should be making up with each other."
Gordon was incredibly satisfied and said, "That's good! Whenever they quarrel again in the future, you and Sugar Bun have to help them!"
Juju looked troubled and said, "But Grandpa, Dad looked strange when he got angry. I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to tell when he gets angry again in the future! Grandpa, can you tell me when he does in the future?"
Gordon pursed his lips and said, "Of course!"
"However, I don't know how long I can live to tell you!" he thought to himself.
Juju smiled and said, "Thank you, Grandpa. You're the best!"
Gordan glanced at Sugar Bun. As if recalling something, he took out something from his pocket and handed it to Juju and Sugar Bun respectively.
"This is a gift from me. Keep it well. Take it out when Grandpa is no longer here in the future!"
Sugar Bun was confused as he stared at the gift for a long time, unable to tell what it was. He thought it was an ordinary toy block...
Juju was a little older, therefore she asked, "Grandpa, didn't you say that you wouldn't leave? Where are you going?"
Gordon sighed and said, "I'll try my best not to leave. However, this is just a precaution just in case I suddenly want to go travelling in the future."
Juju nodded and said, "Okay! I'll keep it well for Grandpa. When you return, I'll give it back to you!"
"Okay!" Gordon nodded.
"Then, Grandpa will play another fun game with the two of you today!"
"Yes! Yes!"
The three of them played together for the entire afternoon. As Eudora went downstairs, she heard cheers and laughter.
Sugar Bun, who was filled with excitement, said, "Mommy, Grandpa made this! It's a princess's castle!"
Eudora looked at the castle, but felt like it was a world away.
"This is..."
Gordon smiled embarrassedly and said, "This is the castle you wanted me to make for you when you were a kid. Do you still remember?"
Eudora indeed did remember that. That was the reason why she felt that it was strange!
"It's been so many years, and you still remember?"
Gordon nodded and said, "Of course I do! That time, you told me that your school assigned a parent-child project and you told me to come back earlier to help you complete it. You also sent me the drawing. However, I couldn't come back because I had an urgent meeting! In the end, you got zero marks because you didn't hand it in!"
Those sad matters in the past no longer seemed to feel so sorrowful anymore.
Perhaps it was because she had already gone through them, therefore she felt that they were just trivial matters!
"Eudora, I'm sorry."
