The next day, when Eudora woke up, she found herself asleep in the VIP ward next door.
She sat up hurriedly and heard Hodge calling her from the outside.
âMiss Eudora, itâs time to have breakfast!â
Eudora was truly starving to death, so she got up.
Breakfast consisted of banana oatmeal and French toast, something which she liked very much. It was easy to digest and was also quite filling.
Eudora didnât eat much yesterday, hence it was the most suitable breakfast for her now.
In particular, the two dishes tasted like it had been specially bought from a famous restaurant. Eudora praised Hodge for his good tastes.
âItâs so kind of you, thank you.â
Hodge shook his head and said, âI didnât buy it! The nurse gave it to me when I just arrived at the reception this morning. She said that a very handsome man asked someone to send it here. Sheâs probably talking about Mr. Nolan, right?â
Eudora recalled that Fabian had indeed come last night, thus she nodded in realization.
However, for some reason, she kept thinking about the strange dream she had last night. In her dream, she seemed to have seen Amos.
With that thought in mind, she couldnât help but ask.
âWhy was I sleeping in the room next door all of a sudden? Did you arrange it?â
Hodge shook his head again and explained, âMiss Eudora, you were already there when I came. Iâve asked the nurse about it too. She said it was also the very handsome man who arranged for you to sleep there!â
At this point, Hodge couldnât help but smile.
âMr. Nolan is really nice to you, Miss Eudora. You shouldnât be mad at him againâ¦â
Eudora didnât say anything and took another bite of the oatmeal. Suddenly, she heard Hodgeâs surprised voice again, saying, âMaster Tyler, youâre awake? Iâll get you a glass of water.â
Eudora put down her cutlery and stood up, while Tyler happened to meet her eyes. Both of them were stunned for a moment.
Hodge asked hurriedly, âMaster Tyler, are you hungry? We happened to buy some light oatmeal that is suitable for you. Would you like to have some?â
Tyler didnât say anything. The father and daughter duo really had the same temper.
Hodge was a little helpless. He then looked at Eudora and asked, âMiss Eudora, why donât you feed him?â
Fortunately, Eudora nodded this time. Otherwise, he really wouldnât know how to smooth things over.
She filled up some of the oatmeal in another bowl, walked over, and adjusted Tylerâs bed up slowly. However, in her heart, she was contemplating how to bury the hatchet with him.
She was infuriated that day, so some of the words she said were really too harsh. However, it was difficult to take back those words.
In the end, Eudora didnât say anything and could only send the oatmeal to Tylerâs lips.
âEat something first!â
Fortunately, Tyler opened his mouth and ate the oatmeal.
Eudora breathed a sigh of relief and fed him bit by bit. Soon, he finished the last bit of oatmeal in the bowl.
âDo you want another bowl?â Eudora asked.
Tyler opened his mouth and muttered something. Eudora didnât get it, hence she moved a little closer.
The next second, she froze. That was because Tyler had said, âFortunately, Iâm still alive. Otherwise, I wonât be able to watch my precious daughter get married anymore!â
Her eyes reddened all of a sudden as she was caught off guard!
Eudora turned her head away hastily and asked again, âDo you want more?â
Tyler, who was lying on the bed, nodded as he said raspily, âI want more. Itâs my daughterâs first time feeding me.â
Seeing this, Hodge, who was next to them, finally put down the glass and said with gratification, âMiss Eudora, you guys have a good time. Iâll go and get the bill.â
After Hodge left, Eudora returned to Tyler with another bowl of oatmeal and sat down in front of him.
âHave some!â Eudora said.
Tyler had just eaten a bowl of oatmeal and finally had a bit of strength to speak. As of now, he looked at Eudora, who was acting inexplicably well-behaved.
He opened his mouth and ate the food whenever she asked him to.
After Eudora fed him the food, she apologized in a low voice, âIâm sorry.â
Tyler was stunned and tears welled up his eyes.
âI should be the one apologizing to you. Iâve thought clearly about what you said yesterday at the moment of life and death. Youâre right, Iâm muddled. I wonât meddle in your personal affairs in the future anymore. You can be with whoever you want, okay?â
Tylerâs sudden understanding made her heart tighten up. Eudora couldnât find the correct words to describe her feelings since he had compromised so suddenly.
After being stunned for a while, she heard Tyler ask her again, âWhatâs wrong? Are you too happy that youâve become dumb?â
âAre you serious?â
She finally came to her senses. Her face was full of anticipation as she looked at Tyler.
Tyler nodded solemnly, âI never lie! Eudora, go pursue your happiness! Youâre right, itâs your own life. Be it happy or sad, youâll have to experience it for yourself. No matter how smooth the path others set for you is, it wonât be as unforgettable as the path you choose yourself.â
âThank you! Thank youâ¦â Eudora originally wanted to say âThank you, Dadâ, but when the words reached the tip of her tongue, she suddenly couldnât say it.
She took a deep breath and felt a little embarrassed. It was fine, she could take things slowly.
She thought that one day, she would be able to call Tyler âDadâ to his face!
As Eudora and Tyler reconciled, the atmosphere in the ward became much more relaxed. After breakfast, Tyler started nagging again.
âI have already given in. Are you still not going to let me meet my lovely grandson and granddaughter? And the man youâre always missing? Is he not coming to the hospital to visit me, his father-in-law?â
Eudora felt awkward and chuckled, âI have never met a person like you. Do you expect others to repay you immediately after youâve given them some benefits? How badly have you treated him before? How can it be so easy for both of you to reconcile now?â
Tyler was instantly unhappy and retorted, âHow dare he! No matter what, he is still my son-in-law! He is not allowed to hold grudges towards me!â
Eudora felt helpless. This old man was harder to deal with than an unreasonable child.
Just as he was speaking, someone pushed the door open. Fabian walked in from outside and said, âUncle Holt, itâs good to see you recovered! Iâm relieved!â
After that, he took another look at Eudora and said, âYou didnât rest well for the entire night, did you? Why donât I stay here and accompany Uncle Holt, and you can go rest for a while?â
Eudora was stunned and remembered how she woke up in the ward next door this morning. She asked him, âWhen did you leave last night?â
âI left before dawn! You were asleep at that time and I had something urgent to deal with, so I left first. Are you okay? Are you not fully awake yet?â
He thought that her muddled look from the night before was quite adorable.
Eudora shook her head and noticed that Fabian had called his assistant to bring in another lunch box.
âI asked the chefs at home to cook something for you in the morning. Try it, does it suit your taste?â
Eudora looked at the lunch box and felt a little happy. Hodge said that Fabian sent the breakfast in the morning, but now it seemed that this was not the case.
Otherwise, he would not have brought another lunch box with him.
If it wasnât Fabian, who could it be?
Eudora thought of the dream last night and the shoulder that gave her a sense of securityâ¦
Amos. It mustâve been him.
