At this moment, Eudoraâs hurried footsteps could be heard coming from outside the door.
Jujuâs entire body stiffened. She immediately turned around and said, âDaddy, your baby is backâ¦â
She immediately turned back and hugged her brother, and they began to play games in the living room.
Amos could tell that something was off.
However, he didnât think too much about Jujuâs unusual actions now that Eudora was back.
He missed her even though she had only been away for a few hours.
He walked out quickly and looked at Eudora with a smile after tidying up his clothes in front of the mirror.
âSlow down, donât worry.â
The next moment, Eudora had already grabbed onto his arm. âAmos, how could you treat the children like that?â
Amos was very baffled.
How was he treating the children?
His brain worked fast. After Eudora left in the morning, he had prepared breakfast for the children, helped them dress up, and then accompanied them to read. Now, they were playing games.
Oh, that was right.
He went out to make a phone call in the afternoon and was on the phone for half an hour.
Amos closed his eyes. âItâs probably something about the phone callâ¦â
âI knew it! Children are naughty at times, so we should teach them patiently and reason with them, shouldnât we?â
Amos nodded. âYes!â
âYou used to love them very much. Why are you doing this now?â
Amos frowned. It was just a phone call. Was it that serious?
âIf such a thing happens again next time, I wonât forgive you! Youâve committed domestic violence! You are not allowed to do this again!â
Amos was bewildered by her statement.
He knew he needed to explain himself. âSince when did I do that?â
After a slight pause, he added with a smile, âThe actions on the bed donât count!â
Eudora was furious.
âYou! How dare you talk about this now?! Iâve just received a call from Juju, saying that you were hitting her. She was crying so bitterly, how could you do that?â
Amos recalled how Juju had hugged his thigh, and their conversation earlier, and he finally understood.
âJuju!â He shouted.
The two little kids were eavesdropping behind the door. âSugar Bun, this seems bad.â
Sugar Bun seemed oblivious of the situation and he started giggling.
Juju covered his mouth hurriedly and picked him up. âThe opponents seem to be irritated. Weâve been discovered. Letâs hide!â
Amos had already stepped forward and grabbed onto Juju. âTell me, whatâs going on?â
Juju covered her mouth and replied, âI wonât say anything even if I were to be beaten to death.â
Eudoraâs eyes widened. âAnd yet you said that you didnât hit her!â
Amos was perplexed.
âI really didnât hit her!â
All of a sudden, Eudora heard a line from the show that was playing on the TV. âI wonât say anything even if you beat me to death!â
Eudora was mystified by the actorâs line in the movie.
Upon closer inspection, Juju and Sugar Bun were both wearing a hat. Was this a cosplay?
Eudora frowned. âJuju, why did you lie?â
Juju pursed her lips. âIâm playing a game with Sugar Bun. He misses you, Mommy!â
She then lowered her head dejectedly. âIâm sorry, I was wrong!â
Eudoraâs heart stopped for a moment. All of her anger immediately dissipated because of Jujuâs words.
She held both Juju and Sugar Bun in her arms. âIâm sorry, Iâm the one in the wrong.â
She hadnât been there when the children were growing up. It was not unusual if they didnât feel bonded with her, resulting in such a scene.
Fortunately, Sugar Bun was still young, and he still needed his mother. If he had been a little older, it would have been too late for Eudora to feel regretful.
Eudora composed herself and recalled the water park that she passed by when she was on her way home.
âLetâs go. Mommy will take you out to play today. Juju, put on your swimwear and get your younger brotherâs clothes ready immediatelyâ¦â
Jujuâs eyes immediately lit up, âOkay!â
After Juju left, Eudora looked at Amos, who had been standing there silently. She then walked over and took the initiative to put her arms around his waist.
âExcuse me, Mister, I would like to invite you to the water park with me. Would you like to come?â
Amos smiled and replied, âAm I allowed to say no?â
âYes, of course!â Eudora laughed. âI saw a lot of handsome men with amazing abs when I passed by the street just now. There will always be one who would suit me, donât you think?â
âHuh?â Amos said in a deep voice, âIt looks like we should switch on the light at night so that you could have a good look at these muscles.â
Eudora was at a loss for words.
â¦
It was summer, and the water park was very crowded.
Eudora, Amos, and the two kids immediately drew attention to them the moment they entered the park.
âThe man is handsome, the woman is pretty, and there are two cute kids. They are all wearing matching swimsuits. How adorable!â
Amos could sense that some of the men were scrutinizing Eudoraâs body. He moved closer to her instinctively and blocked their view.
It seemed that they would need to clear out the crowd the next time they came here.
Eudoraâs voice rang out, âHubby, this way.â
Amos paused. This was probably the first time Eudora had referred to him as her husband in front of so many people.
Looking at the smile on her face, with the eyes of the people around her, Amos suddenly realized that maybe it was not that bad for them to be in public like this.
Otherwise, how else could he show off that he had such a good wife and lovely children?
However, the next second, he caught a glimpse of Eudoraâs white and slim waist. Amos frowned.
Uhmâ¦
She ought to change into a one-piece!
He then walked over and gave Clint a call.
âGet me a one-piece swimsuit and send it to the water park immediately!â
A moment later, Eudora changed into the one-piece that was brought over by Clint. It looked extremely old-fashioned.
However, her voluptuous curves were accentuated after putting on the one-piece. For some reason, it was more attractive than the one just now.
Amos was baffled.
However, Eudora, on the other hand, did not seem to sense the manâs exasperation at all. She was eager to jump into the pool after changing her swimwear.
Amos reached out and took her into his arms.
âI really want to hide you away.â
However, his efforts proved futile.
Eudora was so energetic. If he hid her, she would probably be bored to death. He didnât want to do that to her.
Forget it. At the end of the day, he was not going to let his selfishness and jealousy stop Eudora from having fun.
âLetâs go play a game.â
Eudora nodded and followed Amos. Suddenly, she tiptoed and whispered to his ear.
âYouâre the only one I like.â
Amos paused. The soft spot in his heart warmed up at once.
It turned out that she knew all about it.
â¦
The two children were so excited that they spent the whole morning playing together. Finally, they swam in the water for a while.
Eudora was supervising Juju and Sugar Bun when all of a sudden, Sugar Bun began to cry loudly.
Eudora got a fright and hurriedly hugged him.
However, Sugar Bun struggled desperately in the water, and the float on his feet scratched Eudoraâs leg. The wound was further irritated by the water in the pool, and she felt a stinging pain.
