My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 1134

"What do you mean? Our Gellert family is also a noble family. Don't tell me you are not satisfied with

that?"

Eddison shook his head. "Of course not. It's just that things are not what you think! Nothing happened

between Rachel and I!"

Rachel was discouraged as he had refused Jarred without hesitation.

Initially, she had felt like the happiest person in the world when she woke up in the morning. However,

at the moment, she realized that everything had just been wishful thinking.

She had thought she had actually had a chance of being with Eddison.

She pursed her lips.

She told Jarred, "Dad, he's right. Nothing really happened between us. I drank too much last night, so

he just brought me here to rest."

"Shut up!"

Jarred couldn't stand such an explanation and he was livid.

"It's not up to you to decide whether anything happened between you two or not. People will comment

whatever they want on this incident freely. Don't you see what's circulating on the Internet now? The

good name of our family has been besmirched!"

"Dad!"

Bianca stopped her from talking, saying, "Rachel, just keep quiet and let your father handle things!"

"Mom!"

"No matter what, you must marry my daughter instantly, otherwise, I will make you regret the day you

were born!"

Their kerfuffle started to catch the attention of nearby passersby.

Rachel took the opportunity to say, "Dad, there are many people around here. Why don't we talk about

this after we get back home?"

Only then did Jarred stop rebuking. He turned to glower at Eddison.

He turned to glower at Eddison, "Follow me!"

Eddison frowned and replied, "I will never go back on my word or deny responsibility for what I've done.

Nonetheless, I won't take responsibility for what I've never done. I still have work to do. When I've

finished, I'll return and make things clear to you guys."

Undoubtedly, Jarred couldn't tolerate such a rejection. Fortunately, Rachel tried her best to stop him.

"I believe him. Actually, it's not a big deal. Let's go back first!"

Jarred was so irritated that Jillian was on Eddison's side throughout the entire argument. However, it

was unwise for them to stay any longer in the hotel lobby as people were watching them.

If they continue to quarrel, the headlines in the newspaper the next day would be even more

unbearable for them.

Therefore, he turned around and left angrily.

In the Granger Mansion, Eudora was taking Cola out for a walk in the garden. Cindy came up to her

after they had just walked for one round.

"Mrs. Granger, the Gellert family is here!"

Eudora thought for a while before she remembered who they were.

She thought of that well- behaved girl, "Is it Rachel?"

In principle, she should like girls with unique personalities since she was a strong- willed woman

herself.

A well- behaved girl might be too conventional.

She didn't usually like prim and stuffy girls.

However, it was quite strange that she liked Rachel from the bottom of her heart. She always felt that

Rachel was a warm-hearted and likeable person.

Cindy shook her head.

"Miss Gellert's father, Jarred Gellert is here, and he looks furious."

Eudora furrowed her brows and said, "I'll go and take a look."

In the living room, Jarred was pacing back and forth in anger.

Eudora adjusted her mood and walked in with a smile.

"Mr. Gellert, nice to meet-"

Jarred shouted directly, "Where is Amos? Tell him to come back!"

Originally, he had wanted to look for Amos in Valiant East. However, there were too many reporters

outside. He was afraid that he would be accosted by them before he arrived at Valiant East.

He really couldn't afford to be humiliated by those indiscreet reporters.

Eudora was not fazed by his show of anger. She instructed Cindy with a smile on her face.

She instructed Cindy with a smile on her face, "Cindy, go and pour a cup of tea for Mr. Gellert!"

"I won't drink your tea!"

Jarred gnashed his teeth and said, "Don't play dumb! You can't just take advantage of my daughter and

walk away. I won't let you go!"

Eudora was startled. "What's wrong?" she asked.

"Don't tell me that you are unaware of this. It's all on the news!"

Cindy immediately handed over the newspaper to Eudora.

"Mrs. Granger, you haven't read today's newspaper!"

Eudora took it and looked at the articles. The news disconcerted her at first sight. However, on second

thought, she regained her composure as she knew Eddison well.

Eddison was not the kind of person who would cross the line.

She said composedly, "Mr. Gellert, don't worry. The media will spread unverified news every now and

then. We need to find out what's going on." Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"So what if we found the truth? My family's reputation has already been severely tarnished!"

Eudora finally understood his purpose of visiting her and Amos. Clearly, he was not planning to discuss

solutions for the problem, but to pressure them into agreeing with his plan.

Obviously, his plan was to let Rachel marry Eddison.

She liked Rachel a lot, but she did not want to force Eddison into an arranged marriage. She reckoned

she should discuss the matter with Amos.

Hence, she ordered Cindy to call Amos and ask him to come back.

Amos came back quickly after receiving the call.

Eudora looked behind him and asked, "Where's Sugar Bun?"

Amos held her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, he will come back!"

Eudora was feeling unsettled, thus she went outside to wait for Eddison.

He came back in the evening.

He wore a plain black shirt. He hadn't been home for a few days and seemed to have lost weight and

gotten a slight tan.

However, upon seeing him look spirited, Eudora became relieved.

She pretended to be angry as she said to him, "Why didn't you come back these few days?"

Eddison smiled at his mother, saying, "I'm fine. Didn't you say that I have to be independent. Look, I'm

now independent!"

"It's true that you're independent, but you're in trouble now! What happened between you and Rachel?"

Then, he explained the ins and outs of the matter to his mother.

"I didn't expect that there would be reporters, but I have a clear conscience!"

Eudora knew that Eddison would not do anything bad, but she also knew that the Gellert family was not

easy to deal with.

So, she pulled him into a room.

She asked, "What do you think of Rachel?"

Eddison simply told Eudora how he felt towards Rachel, "She's a nice girl!"

Eudora's eyes lit up at once. "Do you mean that you like her?" she asked.

"No, I don't think I like her, but I don't hate her either."

He had still been quite resistant to being with

Eudora tried to sound him out, "Then, can you try to like her?"

Eddison retorted right away, "Mom, that's impossible!"

"Why isn't it possible?" Eudora had failed to notice her son's irritation as she was only thinking about

Rachel.

Eddison stood up indignantly, saying, "No, it's not a good idea!"

"Mom, it's impossible! Either way, I won't like her. Quit persuading me!" said Eddison. After that, he got

up and headed outside.

Then, Amos's stern voice could be heard as he said, "Stop right there!"
