Eudora slept soundly till the next day, the sun outside the window already shining the top of her head when she woke up.
She opened her eyes, and her body was still sore.
She yawned and was about to get out of bed when she heard footsteps coming to her. A cute little boy was looking up at her with a grin.
âDa da daâ¦â
It was Sugar Bun.
Eudora reached out and carried Sugar Bun into her arms, but she accidentally pulled on her aching waist, causing her to grimace in pain.
She swore she wouldnât allow Amos near her for the next three days!
Amos, who was reading a magazine downstairs, could not help but feel a chill on his back. Oh⦠Mrs. Granger must be scolding him behind his back, huh.
Who else would dare to do this apart from her?
Amos wasnât lying. There were still the Nolan family and the Holt Family fighting against him in the past. Now that the both of them were gone, the entire place belonged to his family.
Moreover, there was still TEM Company. Who could be a match for the two if they were to team up together?
Eudora didnât know what Amos was thinking about, torturing her for the whole night. She lowered her head and kissed her son. He really did look like her. People believed that sons used to be the lovers of their mothers in their previous lives. Now, she was convinced of that saying.
At this moment, Juju entered the room.
âSugar Bun, did you forget that Daddy said Mommy is not feeling well?â
And whose fault was that?!
Juju asked again, âMommy, are you awake? Are you feeling better now?â
She caressed Eudoraâs forehead with her small fair hand, and a smile quickly appeared on her face. âIt looks like you are feeling much better now!â
Eudora stretched out her hand and rubbed it on Jujuâs round cheek. âYes, I feel good! Letâs go, you must be hungry, right? Iâll make something delicious for you!â
They all got up from the bed and made their way downstairs. Amos heard the noise and turned back to look at Eudora.
âIâve chosen a few places for the honeymoon. Which one do you prefer?â Eudora refused to talk to him. She knew that men would usually take oneâs kindness for granted if they were treated too well.
Amos was confused by her actions.
When Eudora entered the kitchen, Juju said coquettishly, âDaddy, youâre doomed. Mommy is angry with you! Hurry up and comfort her.â
Coincidentally, Charlie and Harley came into the house.
Fabianâs secret was exposed after Charlie was hurt, and thankfully, the antidote to his injury had been found in the midst of it all.
Coupled with Doctor Leonâs treatment, Charlie was finally back on his feet, ready to report for duty.
As soon as they entered the door, they heard Jujuâs words.
Harley immediately gloated, âOh, I guess Eudora is the head of the family at home. I feel like my relationship with Thea is the best.â
Charlie had always been very protective of Amos. He immediately came to Amosâ defense.
âMr. Louis, Mr. Granger is the true leader of the family. This child is just joking. Donât take it seriously.â
Harley smirked. âReally?â
Charlie wavered a little as he replied, âAh⦠of course!â
He saw Amos standing up without hesitation and walking towards the kitchen.
Looking at his confident stride, it seemed as though he was about to do something great and honorable.
Charlie breathed a sigh of relief. The macho and tough guy was finally back!
âMr. Granger must have gone to educate his wife. After all, she shouldnât have spoken so harshly to her husband in front of the childrenâ¦â
Unexpectedly, in the next moment.
They could hear Amos apologizing to Eudora in the kitchen. âHoney, I was wrong.â
Charlie was astonished.
Harley laughed proudly and shouted, âAmos, Iâm here!â
The kitchen quieted down all of a sudden.
Harley walked over quickly and wanted to see Amosâ rare apologetic look. In the next second, he came back with a surprised look on his face.
Charlie was shocked. Could it be that Mr. Granger had knelt to the ground and apologized to his wife?
He quickly went over to look, the corner of his mouth twitching. Amos, who was apologizing just now, was now standing at the kitchen counter in a very manly way. Behind him was Eudora, who looked like a little obedient wife, massaging his shoulders.
âMy dear, how do you feel?â
Amos was also confused. âOh, not bad.â
âThatâs good!â
Turning around, Eudora looked at Harley, but the tone of her voice hadnât changed yet. âAh, youâre here! Have you had lunch yet? Iâll make more, and you could eat with us.â
Harley couldnât help but shudder. âEudora, could you not talk to me in this tone? Iâm scared!â
Eudora rolled her eyes and replied rudely, âDo you want some lunch or not?â
âYes, yesâ¦â
How could he reject that offer? After all, she was holding a knife in her hand!
âCharlie, why donât you stay? Alright, all of you, go to the living room and wait for me. Lunch will be ready soon.â
Charlie and Harley obeyed her order.
Eudoraâs face immediately fell after the two left, and she snorted at Amos, âDonât think that I have forgiven you. In front of outsiders, you are my husband, and I will show you mercy. However, the problems involving principles cannot be tolerated. You must sleep in the study room for the next three days!â
Amos negotiated, â⦠Just one day please?â
âNo way!â
â¦
Charlie reported for duty once he was completely recovered. He apologized to Eudora, who then said that it was all in the past.
Amos had gathered a lot of information for the honeymoon, but in the end, Eudora still felt that it would be best to spend their peaceful days at home for the moment.
Therefore, they didnât need to go on a honeymoon.
Furthermore, by doing so, they would have more time to accompany the children.
Eudora had specially planned a schedule and divided it into five sessions to spend time with the children.
A personâs mind would be the most alert in the morning, so the children were arranged to study in the morning. Together, they would read books and newspapers. They would have a break in the afternoon by playing some games and exercising. In the evening, they would watch TV and have a story-telling time with the children.
Eudora tried hard to make up for the time lost with her children.
Particularly for Sugar Bun, who had never been with Eudora ever since he was born. Although they were mother and son, there was still a slight distance between them both.
For several times, he would only ask for his father when he was met with difficulties. His mother seldom came into the picture.
Eudora was very dejected.
However, she knew that things like this couldnât be rushed. One person would only rely on another after spending more time together, and they had to cultivate that feeling one step at a time.
They had a long way ahead of them and Eudora believed that there would be a day when Sugar Bun would fully accept her as his mother.
Half a month had passed just like that.
After the honeymoon, Amos began to deal with the companyâs affairs, and Eudora got busy as well.
She had sold all of the Holt Familyâs assets away, but she had promised Samuel and Leslie that she would start over in Rosaville City.
In addition to the successful establishment of the milkshake franchise before this, Eudora was also preparing to enter the real estate industry again.
Therefore, apart from the time she spent with the children every day, Eudora put all her attention and energy into the construction of the company.
For several times, Amos felt distressed when he saw just how tired she was.
âYou donât have to rush into the real estate industry. Donât over-exhaust yourself!â
Eudora shook her head. âI canât. Weâve agreed that Iâll take care of you for the rest of your life. How could I stop making more money now?â
Amos was astounded. It seemed that she took her words that she had said during her proposal seriously.
