My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 89

Clint Zuckerberg went into Amos Granger's office and said immediately, "President Granger, Miss

George was scalded."

Amos frowned as he said, "Get the doctor."

"You don't have to do this!" Eudora George looked at them helplessly, "It's not too serious. I just need it

to leave it under cold running water and apply some aloe vera gel afterwards."

After that, she went into Amos' lounge alone. There was a restroom inside, where she could run her

arm under cold water.

The chicken soup wasn't boiling hot, hence she was not badly burned.

Coming out from the restroom, Eudora heard Amos asking Clint, "How did it happen?"

Clint shook his head and said, "I've no idea. Things had already happened when I saw her. I'll go check

it out now."

"There's no need!" Eudora said in a hurry. "It's just an accident. I'm really fine!"

Amos grabbed Eudora's arm and looked at it, then nodded his head.

"Please be more careful next time. You don't have to take the staff elevator. You can use the

president's elevator."

"Is that really necessary?" Eudora retorted. Despite saying that, her heart was beaming. Eudora took

the president's elevator down. She saw the two young ladies from earlier waiting for her at the main

entrance. They apologized to her immediately when they saw her coming out.

Eudora comforted them and said that it was all right. Then, she left.

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Our president's fiancee is indeed a kind person!"

"That's for sure. Otherwise, why would President Granger fall in love with her?"

As she spoke, Sunnie's mobile phone rang all of a sudden. She saw the caller ID and answered the

phone somewhat indifferently, "Yes?"

Wendy Liam said gently on the other side of the phone, "Was the chicken soup delicious? I'll ask them

to deliver it to you again if it's delicious."

"You don't have to do this!" Sunnie said in an awkward manner. "Thank you, Miss Liam."

Wendy was startled, then she said, "Would you prefer any other food then?"

"You really don't have to do this anymore!" Sunnie repeated her words.

Wendy said, "Well... What about President Granger? How was his work today?"

"I've no idea!" Sunnie said. "I'm not even working in President Granger's office, and I'm quite busy now

by the way. Goodbye!"

After that, she hung up the phone directly.

Wendy was dumbstruck for a moment, and she threw her mobile phone onto the ground all of a

sudden.

Considering the fact that Amos promised to go back early in the evening, Eudora went to buy some

cooking ingredients after work.

Eudora had cooked a lot of brussels sprouts for him last time. Therefore, she decided to prepare a few

sweet dishes today.

She was planning to cook some sweet potato bites, sweet caramelised pork ribs, as well as chocolate

lave cake for dessert.

After she was done cooking, Auntie Valerie joked, "I suppose that Sir would fall into a honey jar today."

"What honey jar? Auntie Valerie, please stop laughing at me!" Eudora said.

After that, Eudora went to wash her hands, but her mobile phone rang all of a sudden. She then asked

Auntie Valerie to answer the phone call.

"Please help me to answer the phone call."

Auntie Valerie had already hung up the phone when Eudora was back from the washroom. Auntie

Valerie stood there, as if she was hesitating to say something.

Eudora paused for a while. She could tell what was going on.

"Is Amos working overtime again? It's okay. I'll wait for him for a while." Eudora said.

"No!" Auntie Valerie said, "Miss Liam fell sick again. President Granger asked us to eat first. He said we

don't have to wait for him." Eudora's hands, which were holding a dish, stiffened.

It took some time until she finally put down the plate and said, "Oh, I see. Well... let's eat then!"

Auntie Valerie was a little angry. "Is Miss Liam only pretending to be ill? She's always falling sick

whenever you get closer to President Granger..."

"Auntie Valerie!" Eudora stopped her. "After all, she's Amos' lifesaver."

"Okay fine!" Auntie Valerie nodded her head and said, "Please eat first. I'll be outside doing some

chores."

After Auntie Valerie left, Eudora finally put down her fork. She had lost all her appetite.

In Wendy Liam's apartment.

Wendy's situation was more serious than before, but she wasn't going crazy this time, she was crying

non-stop instead.

Amos and the doctor had no idea what to do.

In the end, the servant told them what had happened.

"Miss Liam was very happy after getting to know the people you introduced to her. She even asked me

to cook some chicken soup for them. Unexpectedly, they suddenly become hostile, and even asked

Miss Liam to stop calling them. Miss Liam is very sad because she had lost her newly-made friends."

Amos frowned. 'It's because of chicken soup again.' He thought.

"Get out!" Wendy, who was still crying, suddenly shouted, "All of you, please get out now!"

Amos and the others left, as they didn't want to agitate her further.

Then, the doctor and the nurse entered the room to inject the sedative into her arm.

After coming out, the doctor said, "Psychiatric patients tend to protect themselves, hence it's hard for

them to trust others. Miss Liam took great efforts to take the first step. However, she was treated in this

way unexpectedly. I'm afraid it will be more difficult for her to trust others again in the future."

Amos frowned and asked, "Is there no other way?"

The doctor shook his head and said, "The only way is to take care of her patiently and guide her slowly.

Please remember not to trigger or provoke her!"

"I see." Amos nodded his head and responded. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Amos entered Wendy's room after the doctor had left.

Wendy had calmed down because of the sedative. She was lying on the bed with a very confused look.

Tears welled up within Wendy's eyes when she saw Amos coming in. She said, "They hate me. It's all

my fault. Amos, I don't want to go to work anymore. I'll just stay at home in the future."

Amos shook his head and said, "I'll help you to start a business!"

Wendy was dumbfounded, "What?" "Didn't you say that you like fashion design? I'll open a fashion

company for you, and you could be the designer and boss of your own company!"

"But..." Wendy still wanted to say something. However, the servant, who was standing next to her

suddenly smiled and said, "Miss Liam, no one would dare to treat you badly if you're the boss!"

"Really?" Wendy looked at Amos expectantly.

"Yes!" Amos nodded his head. "I'll ask Clint to prepare for this tomorrow!"

Wendy finally nodded her head and sat up again.

"I'm sorry. It's so late already. You haven't eaten yet, right? I'll cook something, and we can eat

together." Wendy said.

"It's okay!" Amos rejected her. "I have something else to do."

"You'd have to eat even if you have something to do. I'll cook now, it won't take long." Wendy said.

"That's not necessary, you should go to bed early!" After saying that, Amos picked up his coat and

turned around to leave.

Wendy stood there for a long time before she asked, "Do you think he dislikes me?"

The servant shook her head and said, "How could it be possible? Mr. Granger treats you so nicely. He

would rush here whenever you're in trouble, no matter what time it is."

"Really? But he doesn't even want to have a meal with me." Amos took a glance at his mobile phone.

However, there was no missed call or text message. He frowned slightly and put down his mobile

phone. Then, he started the car engine and drove away.

The sweet dishes were still on the table untouched, and Eudora had fallen asleep on the table,

Amos pursed his lips and bent down to hug Eudora.

Unexpectedly, Eudora woke up.

"When did you come back?" She asked in a daze. "How did I fall asleep here? Let's go upstairs and

sleep!"

However, Amos wrapped his arms around her waist and said, "I'm hungry."
