Chapter 462: Chapter 462 Make A Bet

Doctor Leon did not reject Amos’ suggestion. As a doctor, he could only treat patients well if he maintained a good physical and mental state.

Therefore, a doctor’s spirit must be very strong, especially surgeons.

They must be able to keep their calm all the time even in the operating room.

Doctor Leon then nodded and said, “I’ll be downstairs then. Call me if you need anything.”

He had already taken a few steps before noticing that his daughter, Helen, hadn’t followed him yet. “Helen…” He called.

Helen then followed him down the stairs hurriedly. Soon, they could hear the sound of the door closing behind them.

Helen recalled Amos’ smile just now and asked carefully, “Dad, didn’t you say that Amos didn’t like to smile and that he was a very indifferent person? Did he really smile just now?”

However, Doctor Leon had already seen through everything.

“Obviously, it was the girl inside who asked him to be polite to me!”

Helen froze for a moment. “It’s Mrs. Granger…”

“Definitely! When has this brat ever been so polite? However, to think about it in another way, Eudora really is a good girl. He’s lucky to have found her.”

Helen nodded. “Mmhm, maybe you’re right.”

…

Amos measured Eudora’s body temperature once he returned to the room. Her temperature was starting to rise again, but it was much better than when she fainted in the bathroom just now.

Amos then took a cold shower again and held Eudora in his arms.

Eudora’s heart tightened when she felt the chill on his body. “Amos, did you take a cold shower on purpose so that you could cool me down?”

Amos only replied vaguely, “It’s quite warm tonight, so I thought of having a cold shower.”

It was September, and it was already nighttime. How on Earth could it be warm?

Eudora knew very well that he was trying to cool her down, but she didn’t expose his intentions.

She just said, “Even if it’s warm, you can’t possibly just take a cold shower like that. Who’s going to take care of Juju if you catch a cold too? And what about the little Sugar Bun in my belly?”

“Sugar Bun?” Amos repeated in confusion, thinking it was a really weird name.

“Yeah, our child! Sugar Bun and Juju will get along great with each other!” Besides, this name is so cute that it could be used for both boys and girls.”

Amos laughed. “Well, as long as you like it.”

At this moment, Eudora suddenly hissed. Amos was startled and he immediately leaped out of the bed.

“What’s wrong? Do you feel unwell?”

“No!” Eudora shook her head. She grabbed Amos’ arm and placed his large hand on her belly.

Amos was stunned and he said hurriedly, “My hands are cold…”

Although he needed to cool Eudora’s body temperature down, he was sensible. He knew that a woman’s stomach should not be exposed to cold as much as possible, especially for pregnant women.

Therefore, he had made sure to avoid touching her stomach as much as possible.

He withdrew his hands hurriedly and rubbed them together quickly. After he confirmed that they weren’t too cold, only then did he place them back on Eudora’s belly.

Eudora had been pregnant for more than four months. Her baby bump was quite obvious now.

As soon as he put his hands on it, he could feel the little person in her belly move, as though he was greeting him.

Amos was completely dum        bfounded.

Eudora wasn’t paying attention to his expressions as she continued talking, “The baby’s saying hello to you…”

Having met with silence, she looked up and realized that Amos had turned into a sculpture.

Eudora burst into laughter. “If the staff of the Valiant East were to see their wise president become so silly because of a baby, it would be really shocking, wouldn’t it?”

Amos still didn’t say anything. Only after a long time had passed did he finally come back to reality.

“Did the baby just move in your belly? Did Juju also move like this before?”

With a magical look on his face, he suddenly turned into a child…

Eudora burst into laughter and answered, “Of course, all babies are the same! Would you like to try it on the other side?”

Amos actually wanted to give it a try, but he eventually shook his head.

“You must be tired, and go to sleep! I’m fine. Don’t try to comfort me.”

He could tell that she was comforting him…

Eudora really did have a bit of the intention to comfort him, because she didn’t want him to be so nervous because of such a trivial matter.

“I didn’t. In fact, it’s not a big deal that pregnant women get sick. When I was carrying Juju, I was a little unaccustomed to the environment in Italy. At that time, I was about three to four months pregnant too. I caught a cold because I got drenched in heavy rain. The medical care there is completely different from that of ours. No matter who comes to the hospital, they will give them some medication first. The prescription that they provide after is quite low in dosage. At that time, my body was already used to the potent medicine that our doctors used to prescribe, so I did not get better even after consuming their medication for two months. I coughed in my sleep every night. At that time, I thought I would die there. But look at me now, aren’t I completely fine here?”

She had said it so casually, but to Amos, it sounded like endless suffering.

“You never told me all this before…”

Eudora was stunned, “Didn’t I lose my memories before? I just remembered it recently!”

Amos remained silent for a long time before lowering his head and kissing her forehead.

“I’m sorry. I wasn’t by your side when you needed me the most…”

Eudora looked up in confusion.

“Amos…” She sighed. “I’m saying this just to tell you that it isn’t a serious thing for pregnant women to fall sick. I am not complaining to you. I just need help.”

However, Amos didn’t care. He already hated himself to the core for not protecting her well enough back then.

Eudora said helplessly, “Forget it, let’s not talk about this anymore, shall we? I’m a little sleepy. Why don’t we make a bet?”

“What?” Amos asked.

“Let’s make a bet. If I get better tomorrow, you lose. Then, you have to promise me that you will not make a big fuss in the future. If I don’t get well, I’ll listen to you! I’ll do whatever you say!”

Amos nodded and agreed, “Okay!”

As long as it made her happy, she could bet anything she wanted.

She then yawned and said, “I’m a little sleepy. I want to hug you!”

After that, she threw herself into Amos’ arms and trapped him like a koala.

Amos’s heart softened as he looked at Eudora, who was hugging him tightly. Truth be told, she just didn’t want him to douse himself in cold water again to cool her down.

No matter when, she was always the kindest and purest one of all.

Fortunately, the two of them had chatted for a while just now, and her fever had reduced by a lot.

Amos no longer dwelled on the topic and eventually fell asleep with her in his arms.
