My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 1187

Rachel stared blankly at Eddison. She failed to understand his words. What did he mean by that?

"| liked Sierra because she treated me very well. However, she's not the person | want to protect and cherish. I've said before that I'll be by your side forever, and I'll always be there whenever you need me."

"But..." Rachel asked eagerly, "When did you start to fall in love with me?"

Eddison pursed his lips, "| don't know either! It probably started when you helped me in Rosaville City, or perhaps when you waited for me to come back in the dark. Or, maybe when you said that you had never been found by others, and you were happy to be found by me."

She couldn't help complaining. “Hey, the moments you mentioned don't sound like you fell in love with me at all!" "Why not?"

“Love can't be that plain, right? Sierra has had some memorable moments with you, like a lifesaving event, whereas we don't have. | even got you into trouble the last time | tried to help you!"

To her, love should be intense and unforgettable.

Eddison could not help but laugh as he replied, "Well, life is rather tedious and wearisome in certain aspects. Sometimes, love is not necessarily about requesting something from your partner; feeling wanted might be a part of love, too. Knowing that you need me, | feel that my life is very fulfilling, and that I'm not a loser."

Rachel was astounded, "Of course you're not a loser." He was the son of the Granger family and the future leader of the most prominent company in Rosaville City.

Since childhood, the media had been trying hard to pry into his life. It was just that he was well protected by his family, therefore he had been living life on the low down.

She hadn't expected him to say such words.

He smiled faintly, "Alright, can we go for dinner now? I'm hungry!"

Indeed, Sierra's call had disconcerted Rachel, but she managed to pull herself together after chatting with Eddison for a while. Upon hearing that, she realized that he was no longer in the mood to talk about the matter.

Hence, she changed the subject.

"Don't think that the matter will be solved just like that. You must treat me to dinner for at least three days, or | won't go easy on you!"

"Okay, I'll be pleased to do it for a lifetime!"

Rachel grinned and turned her head away.

"What a sweet talker!"

At the same time, Sierra quickly got up and tidied her hair after she looked at the clock hanging on the wall. "Mom, do | look okay?"

Dania handed her a slice of fruit while praising her.

"Certainly. You look fine no matter what."

"Mom, quit flattering me! | must be really pale right now."

Dania chuckled as she asked, "Eddison is coming, right? Do you like him?" Sierra turned her head away.

“Not really. He isn't my type. | just don't want to lose such a friend.”

Dania sighed and said, "I don't know how you think of him, but | think that he isn't a bad lad. Not only is he good- looking, but he's also considerate.

Additionally, if it weren't for him, you would have been doomed this time. Listen to me, forget about your previous boyfriend and strike while the iron is hot! This young man must not be missed!"

Sierra replied to Vania with a smile, "I'll think about it!" As they were talking, they heard footsteps at the door. Hence, they immediately stopped talking and looked at the door. The door was pushed open. Eddison did not come in. Instead, it was his roommate, Carney, who entered the ward instead.

Holding a bag in his hand, he said, "Sierra, I'm sorry for being late. There was traffic congestion. | bet you've been waiting, haven't you? Here you are.”

Sierra looked behind him and asked, "Did you come alone?"NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

He nodded and answered, "Um, yes! Originally, everyone wanted to come and pay you a visit, but they all had something urgent to do today, so I'm the only one who came."

In fact, he was courteous despite his indignation. He and his roommates had witnessed how Eddison had put in so much effort to please and help Sierra throughout the years.

However, Sierra had never appreciated how much time, energy and money Eddison had spent. It wasn't until she was dumped by Jairus that she discovered how good Eddison was.

Thus, they were quite disdainful of Sierra.

Sierra finally couldn't hold back her curiosity anymore. She asked, "Where's Eddison?" "Oh, something just came up, and he had to deal with it."

Sierra asked another question, "What happened?"

Recently, Eddison had been saying that he had plenty of matters to take care of. As a consequence, she started to suspect that he had fallen in love with someone else.

That was why she had taken the initiative to call him in the afternoon.

In the past, he had never refused her request, nor had he failed to attend their hangouts. At first, she had really thought that he would come to visit her.

“Well, how would | know? It's been a long time since he stayed at the dormitory." Sierra felt even more uneasy as she asked, "Seriously? Then, where did he move to?" "| don't know about that either. Sierra, if you're alright, | take my leave as | still have work to do."

"Wait!"

Sierra stopped him and asked again, "Do you all

hate me?" She pretended to be on the verge of tears, one of her usual tactics.

She had a pretty face. Coupled with such a piteous expression, everyone would still sympathize with her even if they knew that she was a conniving little b*tch.

Carney was not an exception and he pitied her subconsciously. "Sierra, please don't think that way. Actually, everyone respects you a lot."

"Stop lying to me! | know that all of you dislike me. I've heard people saying that I'm materialistic, arta that i eon keapingdison on the back burner. However, all | wanted was to be in anormal relationship. To be honest, | was the victim! Why are you all doing this to me?" Please read the original content at NovelDrama.Org.

Carney was fazed by her outburst, "Sierra, don't take it to heart. If that was true, why would we come to visit you?" "Then, why didn't Eddison come? Does he dislike me?"

"That's impossible! You shouldn't doubt his sincerity. He has always been very good to you. Last time, when you participatedinghec O'" titiam) nelieked us to campaign for people to vote for you even though he was in Country C back then. He said that you yearned for the prize. He even raised a few hundred thousand dollars for the campaign, though later-" Please read the original content at NovelDrama.Org.

Sierra was dumbfounded as she asked, "What? Did he really raise money and get people to vote for me?"

"Yeah! Don't you know that? He spent five hundred thousand dollars for it, and he even got himself into a quarrel with his parents. He almost couldn't come back here to continue his study."

Sierra was bewildered, "He had never told me about that before, though.”

"You had a boyfriend at that time, so what did you expect him to say b

then? Sierra, YOUcAn eewhGiseer yoymart about us, but please don't

misunderstand Eddison's intentions. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll take my leave." Please read the original content at NovelDrama.Org.

After Carney left, Dania came up to Sierra and caressed her arm.

"Sierra, are you alright?"

“Mom, | want to be discharged from the hospital for a day tomorrow!"

Dania saw through her intentions at one glance. She asked, "Are you going to look for Eddison?"

She nodded. "Yes!" "Have you resolved to get together with him?" She shook her head, "I'm not sure yet, but | know that I can't afford to lose him for the time being.”

"That's true. | really didn't expect that he would do so much for you. Five hundred thousand dollars is no joke."

Sierra sighed and said, "Yes, it's a substantial amount of money for an ordinary family like us. It'd be nice if he came froma richer family."

Vania failed to hear Sierra clearly, so she asked, "What did you say?"

Sierra shook her head and replied, "It's nothing! Can you help me tell the nurse about my request for tomorrow? | want to take a breather from the hospital.”
