Chapter 428: Chapter 428 Would You Despise Me?

Eudora was stupefied when she realized that Amos had finally woken up. She suddenly felt a burst of delight.

Her tears fell even harder as she said, “I was scared to death. I thought you were going to die!”

Amos ruffled her hair, saying, “You are about to be a mother of two. Why are you still crying so much? Are you not feeling well? However, I think the doctor said that it’s normal for pregnant women to be more sentimental than usual.”

Seeing that he was so worried about her wellbeing, Eudora felt even more uneasy.

“You are such an idiot. Why didn’t you stop me when I was the one being unreasonable and willful? Yet you still accompanied me with my ramblings? I almost got you killed!”

Amos didn’t seem to care. “Even if you are willful, I still find it very charming.”

Eudora glared at him, “If you keep talking glibly, I’ll leave you!”

“Fine, I’ll stop!” Amos raised his hand, expressing his surrender.

They were silent for a moment before Eudora remembered that Juju was still waiting outside. Therefore, Eudora hurriedly started to get up.

“I’ll go out and speak to Juju. I’ll let her know that you are fine and not to worry.”

The next second, her fingers were being gripped. Amos raised his head and stared at Eudora deeply, “Don’t you think about leaving me again, okay?”

Eudora was surprised at once. It turned out that Amos already knew about her desire to leave him.

“Then I…” Eudora’s heart skipped a beat. Before the words escaped her mouth, Amos had already grabbed her into his embrace.

“I don’t care how you are behaving. In my heart, you will always be the best, and the most beautiful woman I’ve ever met! Eudora, why don’t we forget about the past and start all over again?”

Eudora’s nose tingled as she asked, “You really don’t mind?”

“Why should I care? You’ve never despised me for anything before. Why would I despise you then?”

Eudora didn’t know how to react to his words… “Why would I despise you?”.

Upon hearing this, Amos suddenly started to unbutton his clothes in a determined manner.

Eudora was staring at him blankly until she saw the scars all over his body, wantonly exposed to her.

“Eudora, I don’t want to play any games with you anymore. In fact, ever since Vincent came to our house that day, you’ve learned a lot about the past, haven’t you? I have been avoiding this for the past few days, as I hoped you could slowly forget about this incident. We are a family of three. All we need to do is be together. However, the guilt in your heart is getting deeper and deeper, and I feel that I have to start facing the truth. So, I have to tell you the truth! Eudora, I love you, every bit of you. You were forgiving, tolerant, and understanding towards me when I was hurt and at the lowest point of my life. Hence, I must be there for you when you need me the most. We should always be there for one another. I beg you not to leave me, please?”

Eudora could not hear him at all, as her eyes and mind were so preoccupied with the scars on Amos’ body.

How much hardship had he suffered to have all those scars?

Amos didn’t shy away from her eyes as he let her examine his scars. He could feel her fingers sliding over them, little by little.

“What happened to you?”

Amos closed his eyes and revealed the truth without any reservation.

“There are the scars from years of struggling and hustling, as well as…. what happened in that basement.”

Eudora was shocked that she could recall the basement. Her memory was stuck at the age of 20, thus she could remember everything before that.

In a dark basement, there was a boy and a masked woman.

Eudora was in shock, “Were these scars left from that incident?”

“Yes!” Amos nodded, “Would you despise me? Does it make you feel disgusted?”

Eudora shook her head subconsciously, “No, never!”

“Would you feel particularly aggrieved by being with me, then?” Amos added.

“How is that possible?” Again, Eudora shook her head, “That’s not what you wanted. You’ve gone through so much hurt…”

Her voice trailed off before finishing her words.

Amos’s eyes were ardent, as if he was speaking to her with his gaze.

“If you don’t hate me, how would I hate you? What kind of person do you take me as, after all these years?”

Eudora stood rooted to the spot and suddenly felt she was chasing a dead end. She was dwelling in the past so much that she couldn’t see the bigger picture.

“I’m sorry, I was ignorant and foolish all this while!” Eudora suddenly said, “I’m sorry for what I have done to you.”

Amos shook his head, “No, it was all my fault. I didn’t place my faith in you. You were so resilient in the face of any adversities. Yet I still used the stupidest means… Causing us this misery.”

In fact, Eudora’s heart was still in a mess, but she suddenly wanted to be selfish and be with Amos forever.

Especially after she saw Amos’s rashes and fainting incident, Eudora thought that she would lose him forever. At that moment, she finally realized that Amos was, in fact, very important in her heart.

Although she had lost her memories, she still couldn’t live without him.

“Alright!” Eudora nodded, “For our future, we’ll stay strong together. But…”

Eudora paused slightly and said, “I don’t want this child. I do not want to carry on with this pregnancy anymore!”

Since she decided to move on, knowing that this child was a burden, Eudora felt that she should not carry on with this pregnancy.

Amos frowned, “You don’t need to do something you don’t want to… Just because of me.”

“No!” Eudora shook her head.

“I’m not doing it just for you. I’m doing it for our future and myself too. I have Juju already, and I want to forget the past!”

Seeing that she really wanted to forget the past, Amos breathed a sigh of relief.

“Then, by all means, I’ll hire the best doctor to end the pregnancy for you.”

After the deep conversation, Eudora was about to go out and call Juju in. However, Amos had already gotten up, saying, “I’m fine, let’s go home together!”

Eudora nodded and walked out hand in hand with Amos.

Outside, when Harley saw Eudora and Amos holding hands, he couldn’t help but wail again.

“I shouldn’t be here. Why are you both always so publicly affectionate when I’m around?”

Harley didn’t know that Eudora had already found out about the truth. Amos and Eudora didn’t intend to tell him either.

Hearing that they were heading home, Harley followed them as he always cherished his time at the Granger home. Eudora had always welcomed him as well.

It was already very late, almost nine o’clock at night.

However, the Grangers’ courtyard was still lit up. Harley was startled by a patch of white lilies in the garden as soon as he entered.

“What the f*ck? What’s going on? I remember this area used to be a patch of red roses. It was so elegant and beautiful. How did it turn into a patch of white lilies?”

Moreover, Charlie and Wesley had looked for white lilies that were already in full bloom on purpose to salvage the situation. From afar, it looked like a pile of clouds…

No wonder Harley was complaining.

“Who did this? Call her out and I promise I’ll…”

The next second, Eudora glared at him.

Harley said, “It can’t be you, right?”

Eudora lifted her chin, “I did it. What’s wrong with that?”

Harley parted his lips and was just about to speak when he sensed a chilly gaze coming from behind him. He was very tactful and quickly changed his words, “It’s so beautiful. No wonder you are a chief designer. It looks amazing…”
