Eudora George went to take a bath once they reached the resort. When she came out, she noticed that Amos was still awake. He was leaning against the bed and reading a book.
Eudora craned her neck and took a look. She realized that he was looking at a cookbook!
Amos Granger turned his head away when he realized that he had been discovered.
âWere you the one who put it on the bedside table? I just took it casuallyâ¦â
Such a stubborn person!
Eudora reached out to take the cookbook back.
âI did put it at the bedside. Mr. Granger, why donât you have a look at it?â
âNah!â Amos was full of pride.
Eudora did not expose Amos to his lies, instead, she reached up and kissed his cheek.
âHow about this?â
Amosâs eyes darkened, âHmm?â
âStill no? Alas, itâs really annoyingâ¦â Eudora frowned mischievously, which was really adorable and annoying at the same time. In the end, Amos gave in and took back the cookbook.
Eudora, on the other hand, adjusted to a more comfortable position. She leaned on his shoulder and looked at the cookbook seriously.
Although Eudoraâs cooking skills were good, there were actually a lot of dishes that she didnât know how to cook.
She felt as though she had learned a lot after reading a few pages of the cookbook.
She couldnât help pointing at the cookbook and said, âThis is good. I want to learn this.â
They were so close to each other that Amos could almost feel her exquisite curve. However, she did not notice it in the slightest and she ended up seducing Amos without herself realizing.
In the end, Amos put down the cookbook in his hand.
Eudora was stunned, âWhatâs wrong? I havenât finished reading it yetâ¦â
He kissed her before she could even finish her sentence. As he spoke, his vague voice ran through her teeth.
âLetâs eat something else firstâ¦â
Eudora was speechless.
She didnât know when she finally fell asleep. It was already daybreak when she woke up the next day. The cookbook at the bedside was already turned to its last page. Eudora wanted to read it again, but she still took it away at the thought of what had happened to her last night.
The Old Master was already sitting there happily in the kitchen downstairs after freshening himself up. Amos was busy in the kitchen. Even though heâd been reading the cookbook all night, he was still a little nervous!
In fact, Amos had cooked before. The nerves were probably caused by the stress he had put onto himself.
However, he was performing much better than yesterday. At least, he was not burning the whole kitchen anymore.
Amos made some poached eggs, bacon, and sauteed mushrooms for breakfast. The tomato soup was store-bought.
It was a scrumptious meal. After the family sat together for breakfast, the Old Master suddenly proposed to go to the amusement park.
Juju was over the moon. She liked the amusement park very much. It was a place full of all kinds of fantasies for kids.
However, Amos was very unhappy.
âDonât you know about your own health condition? You are not allowed to go.â
âI donât care!â the Old Master then wheeled himself out of the room.
Amos snorted, âDo whatever you want then! Iâm not going to say anything if you refuse to take care of your own health!â
The father and son, who were getting closer initially, had started to quarrel again. Eudora looked at Juju and said hurriedly, âIâm going after Grandpa.â
Juju understood immediately and grabbed Amosâ finger, âDaddy, donât be angry.â
Whenever Amos got angry, as long as Juju and Eudora were around, things would be set right eventually. On the other side, when Eudora got out of the house, she saw the Old Masterâs wheelchair parked on the lawn outside the door.
Eudora caught up hurriedly and saw the Old Master staring at the amusement park roller coaster not far away in a daze. He even had a smile on his face.
Eudora felt that things were not that simple, so she sat down in the chair next to the Old Master.
âActually, it is not because you wanted to go, is it?â
The Old Master was stunned and he turned his head around.
He was slightly disappointed to see that it was only Eudora.
âWhereâs that br*t? Is he still mad at me?â
Eudora did not answer and she continued asking, âIs it because of Amos?â
The Old Master chuckled, âYou are right. What else do I have to say?â
âI am right?â Eudora said with a smile, âI was just guessing. I thought it was strange for you to want to go to the amusement park at your age. But now that I look at it, I understand.â
The Old Master seemed to be lost in thought, âIn fact, when I was investigating him back then, I saw a message that was left by his mother behind one of his pictures. It said that he really wanted to go to the amusement park with me.â
He then paused, âI was the one who didnât do a good job as a father. Heâs all grown up and itâs too late!â
âItâs not too late!â Eudora said, âYou could still tell him your thoughts. I believe that he will definitely understand!â
The Old Master immediately shook his head, âForget it, letâs not talk about this anymore. Itâs too embarrassing!â
âItâs not!â Eudora said hurriedly, âPeopleâs feelings for each other are meant to be expressed out loud. If you donât say it out loud, how will people understand what youâre thinking? You know clearly that you may not have a chance in the future. If you donât say it now, wonât you regret it in the future?â
In fact, Eudoraâs words were not only for the Old Master, but also for Amos.
When she was chasing after the Old Master, she noticed that Amos had come out with Juju as well.
They were standing just a short distance away, so they could clearly hear the conversation between her and Old Master Granger.
Old Master Granger still shook his head, âForget it. Perhaps, when Iâm dead, you could take my ashes and bring them to the playground with him.â
Eudora was speechless.
She was taken aback by the Old Masterâs suggestion. He had asked her to do so, but it did not mean that she would be willing to bring his ashes around!
She had no choice but to use her trump card.
âBut, Juju wants to go!â
The Old Master was stunned, âDoes Juju want to go?â
Juju immediately broke free from Amosâ grasp and ran over without hesitation, âGrandpa, Mommy is right. I want to go to the amusement park.â
Eudora, on the other hand, swapped with Juju and took the opportunity to run over and hold Amosâ hand, âI want to go too.â
Amos was still upset, but he seemed less unhappy than before.
Upon hearing that, he pursed his lips, âStop it.â
âWhy? But I really want to go to the amusement park,â Eudora reached out to hold Amosâ hand and shake it desperately like a petulant child.
âI really want to go. Hubby, please take me thereâ¦â
Amos let out a breath and said, âOkay! Okay!â
âThank you, Amos!â
The mother and daughter winked at each other and immediately went back inside to change their clothes. When they left, only then did Amos walk over to the Old Masterâs wheelchair.
âThatâs what children are like. Thereâs really no need for you to take it to heart.â
He was referring to his wish to go to the amusement park when he was younger. The Old Masterâs eyes darkened and he said immediately.
âIâm sorry.â
Amos was stupefied when he heard the Old Master apologizing to him.
âIâm sorry. Iâm not a good father.â
