Chapter 343: Chapter 343 Let Me Go

Amos and Eudora were busy the whole morning, tidying up the whole house.

After that, Eudora sat by the window on the second floor, looking straight ahead at Juju’s figure.

Just for a moment, she began to doubt herself again.

“Shall I take a shower first?” Eudora asked.

Amos shook his head and comforted her, “No, you’re good this way.”

“Should I change my clothes then? Juju likes me wearing white clothes,” Eudora said again.

Amos wanted to say that she looked beautiful in anything. However, the next second, Eudora asked weakly.

She was full of fear and worry.

“Amos, will Juju dislike me?”

She had completely lost her confidence and she was worried that she would be despised and looked down upon.

Amos’ heart tightened. “No! She won’t dislike you. She’s your daughter! You gave birth to her after carrying her for nine months! Why would she dislike you?”

Eudora looked at him with suspicion. After a long time, she looked away and looked down from the balcony.

Not far away, a car was driving over slowly. Eudora’s body trembled and she hurried downstairs.

…

Downstairs, Harley had been waiting in anticipation when he knew that Juju was coming back.

He too thought it was rather odd. Juju was just another little brat to him initially, and he didn’t like children before. Nevertheless, he had become very fond of the little funny kid.

He always felt that there was a powerful monster living in her heart, which was very attractive.

He rushed out of the room when he heard the car approaching.

As a result, he fell as soon as he took a step forward.

Harley was speechless.

He was ranked first when he was in the police academy back then. When someone hit him in the leg while he was squatting, he could stand in stillness. Now, he actually fell just by walking.

The next second, Doctor Leon, who came out with him, also fell.

The two of them looked at each other awkwardly…

“The floor is too slippery…”

The two clean freaks were too scary. How did they clean the floor so extensively?

At this moment, Eudora and Amos were making their way down the stairs. Suddenly, Harley thought of something and warned hurriedly, “Be careful…”

However, before he could even finish his words, the two of them had already walked over quickly.

Harley was speechless.

…

Outside the door, Juju threw herself into Amos’ arms right away after getting out of the car.

“Daddy! Juju is back!” Juju shouted happily.

Auntie Valerie followed after her and smiled happily, praising, “Juju has grown a lot. She could take care of people now.”

Next to her was Anya Astor. “Yes! Juju is really awesome, just like Eudora,” she echoed.

Everyone turned their gaze to Eudora.

Eudora, who didn’t dare to step forward, suddenly stopped. Each pair of eyes was like searchlights, completely seeing through her.

She took a step back subconsciously and wanted to leave. Amos took her hand right away.

“Eudora, don’t you miss Juju? She’s back!”

“Mommy!” Juju called. She looked at Eudora with her big round eyes and arched eyebrows. Then, she turned around and took a box from her bag and held it in front of Eudora.

“Mommy, I’ve gotten a present for you,” Juju said.

Eudora stared at the box and finally reached out to take it.

Seeing that Eudora seemed to be getting better, Amos was very happy. If she could recover, then there was no need to hypnotize her.

“Open it and have a look.”

Eudora nodded and opened the box. Inside was a crystal necklace and a crystal pendant shaped like a teardrop.

It was pure and flawless.

Eudora looked at it and threw the box on the ground all of a sudden. Then, she turned around and ran into the house.

Juju, Auntie Valerie, and the rest were all shocked. They didn’t know what was going on. Even Anya was stunned.

It was a complicated matter, hence Amos did not tell them anything. He just said that Eudora had not been in a good mood recently.

He asked Anya to go back and take a rest. After handing Juju over to Auntie Valerie, he picked up the crystal and chased after Eudora.

In the room, Eudora shut herself in the bathroom again and took a desperate bath.

After that incident the day before, Amos had asked someone to change the bathroom’s lock into one that could not be locked from the inside. Therefore, at this moment, he pushed the door open and went in.

He saw Eudora rubbing and washing desperately while murmuring something.

He walked over and listened carefully. After a long while, his eyes narrowed.

She was saying that she was dirty.

Amos’s eyes turned tearful. He put the crystal into the bathroom cabinet and walked back to the bathtub.

“Let me help you, okay?” Amos asked.

Eudora didn’t say anything, and he didn’t expect her to answer. Her heart was broken, thus he had to be strong for both their sakes.

Not only did he have to protect her, but he also had to protect Juju.

Before Eudora could scratch her skin, he took her out of the bathtub forcefully again and put her back on the bed.

Then, he kissed her hard.

He held her in his arms and kissed her affectionately. However, if one were to look closely, it was not actually a kiss.

It was as though he was wiping her lips. He wiped every inch of her lips.

Once she calmed down, he said in a low voice, “Now we’re the same. We’re as clean as each other!”

Eudora knew what he was talking about. She was very sober, but she just didn’t want to face the cruel reality.

She felt that she couldn’t help him anymore. On the contrary, she even made things hard for him.

She curled herself up, and for the first time since she was back, she finally blurted out a coherent sentence.

“Amos, let’s break up.”

Amos’s heart skipped a beat. “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“I mean it! I can’t bear it anymore. I thought that I could marry you and face the future together with you, but I’m not worthy now. As long as I stay here for even a minute, I will never forget the cruel reality. Therefore, you’d better let me go,” Eudora said.

Amos’ heart tightened, “What about Juju? Are you not going to care about her as well?”

“I couldn’t care about her anymore, could I?!” Eudora sobbed in a low voice. “I don’t deserve to be Juju’s mother. If anyone knows about what had happened, they will laugh at her! I’ll leave Juju to you. In the future, please find a better mother for her,” Eudora replied.

Amos’ heart tightened even more. He asked, “Eudora, do you really have to be so cruel?”

Eudora smiled bitterly and answered, “All I have left is just a cruel heart now. Amos, please forgive me. If you insist on me staying here, then there is only one way. That is…”

Before the word “die” came out of her mouth, Amos had already hugged Eudora.

“I promise you. Please don’t say that word.”

Eudora was shocked. He finally agreed, but she did not feel the relief that she had imagined. Instead, she felt even sadder.

“Thank you…” she said in a muffled voice.

Amos tightened his arms around her, and Eudora said again suddenly.

“Could I please stay for a few more days? I want to stay with Juju for a few days. By then, I will tell her that I have to go abroad to study so that she won’t be so sad.”

Amos smiled bitterly and responded, “You can stay here for the rest of your life.”

What about him? Wouldn’t he feel sad too?
