Tina came out after a while. Eudora hurriedly went up to her. âHow did it go?â
Tina shook her head with a bitter look on her face.
âThe doctor said, based on my description, Christopher doesnât seem to have any illness. He asked me to take him here for an examinationâ¦â
âThen, call him over!â Eudora said.
She knew that Christopher would not come.
âHow could it be possible? Last night, I mentioned it casually, and he was so angry. He definitely wonât agree to this!â
âWhat should we do? Is there any other way?â
Tina nodded, âThe doctor said that it might just be because heâs in a bad mood, and that is affecting his health. He told me to let him recover first. Perhaps heâll get better.â
âWhat do you think?â
âI think the doctorâs words make sense. Since Christopherâs father has just passed away, the family has been in a mess. Every day, he has to be busy with the companyâs affairs, the familyâs affairs, and sometimes he has to worry about me, so maybe thatâs the caseâ¦â
Eudora heaved a sigh of relief, âYouâre right, so donât be in so much of a hurry. You should accompany him well for the time being. Once his mood relaxes, heâll get better.â
âAlright!â Tina nodded. âEudora, luckily, youâre here to keep me company. Otherwise, I wouldnât even know what to do!â
Eudora felt awkward inside.
âThen, letâs go back now?â Eudora suggested.
âNo. Arenât we near the hospital? My check-up report hasnât come out yet! Letâs go and get it together!â
Eudora was surprised.
How could she still remember? What should she do? She had forgotten to tell Helen that she had lied to Tina.
Just as she was in a panic and did not know what to do, Christopher suddenly came in from outside.
Tina was dumfounded. She hurriedly lowered her head, scared to look at Christopher.
âHubby, I can explain. Iâ¦â
Before she could finish her words, Christopher had already stepped forward and pulled her into his arms. âYou fool!â
When Eudora saw this, the anxiety in her heart suddenly relieved. However, she did not expect that Christopher would follow them.
He had probably been following them since the morning, hadnât he?
Feeling gratified, Eudora found an excuse to slip away.
When Eudora left, Tina sullenly apologized to Christopher. âIâm sorry, Hubby. Itâs not that I donât respect you, I j-justâ¦â
âI know!â Christopher nodded. âYou want me to recover. I know. But there are some things that you canât help. Whatâs more, isnât it good for us to spend more time together now?â
There happened to be a man who passed them by who was carrying a crying child in his arms.
The man could not calm that child down no matter what.
However, the man must have been there to see a doctor, and he looked very uncomfortable at a glance.
âLook at that. If he didnât have a child, he would be much better than he is now. Therefore, as long as we have each other, thatâs enough!â
At that moment, the man suddenly spoke to his child.
He said, âIâm not feeling well. Can you stop messing around?â
The child, who had initially been crying very sadly, instantly stopped crying. His clumsy little hand even reached out and helped the man to rub his belly.
âDad, Iâll give you a massage!â
Tina and Christopher both fell silent and looked at the scene with envy. However, no one said a word.
â¦
When Eudora went back, Cindy and Wesley were taking care of her children.
She looked around carefully and sighed with relief when she found out that Amos had not come back yet.
After going upstairs, she quickly kept two pieces of clothing and went downstairs to call Juju.
âMommy isnât busy all of a sudden. Why donât I bring you two out to play?â
Juju was, of course, willing to do it. She immediately jumped up and wanted to make a phone call. âIâll call Dad to come with us.â
Eudora held down her warmhearted daughter, thinking, âPlease donât drag me down!â
âWell, Dad has been very busy recently, so we canât take him with us this time.â
Juju was a little disappointed. âOh, then when Dad is not busy next time, letâs go together!â
Sugar Bun was very excited. He did like Eudora more. Moreover, he was still young and naïve.
Wesley hurriedly said, âWhere do you want to go? Iâll take you there! Iâll help you with your things too.â
âNo need for that!â Eudora shook her head. âIt isnât too far away. Iâll drive there myself!â
She knew that they were all Amosâ men. If they knew where she had gone, they would tell her secret to Amos in no time!
Upon hearing this, Wesley lowered his head slightly. âOh, then Iâll help you to bring the things into the car!â
Putting Sugar Bun on the baby chair, Juju sat next to him. Eudora drove the car out of Clearwater Bay.
First, she brought Juju and Sugar Bun to the nearby streets to eat. Then, she turned around again.
They had gone to the mall last time, and Juju had liked it very much. When they got tired, she booked a room in the hotel nearby.
The most dangerous place was always the safest. Amos definitely would not think that she was here.
After putting her things down, Eudora called out to her two children, âLetâs rest for a while. Weâll play games later.â
As soon as she finished her words, her cell phone rang.
It was Wesleyâs anxious voice. âMadam Granger, why didnât you tell President Granger where you are going? President Granger has been looking for you since he came back!â
Eudoraâs heart skipped a beat. âHow does his expression look like?â
Wesley was puzzled.
âIt doesnât look too goodâ¦â
âThen, tell him that I went out to play. As for where, just say you donât know!â
After that, she hurriedly hung up on the call.
â¦
It was quiet in the room for a second. Wesley looked at the telephone that was on a loudspeaker mode on the table. It was facing the man whose face was dark.
âSir, Madam Granger⦠might just want to go out and have funâ¦â
Amos sneered. âDo you think she looks like sheâs going out to play? Itâs obvious that sheâs running away from home!â
Wesley was shocked.
âNo way. Madam Granger still answered the phone! How could she be running away from home?â
Amos snorted again. âSheâs so bold. She dared to run away from home after doing something wrong. Go and get her location now!â
Wesley had no choice but to do as Amos said.
How could he forget? All of the Granger familyâs cars were equipped with satellite positioning. No matter where they went, they could be accurately located.
Wesley opened his mouth. Mr. Granger and his wife had always been close to each other. Why did they suddenly become like this?
âWhat did Madam Granger do? Sir, please calm down. Maybe Madam Granger will come back as soon as she thinks it throughâ¦â
âShe has done nothing!â Amos said coldly.
It was just a provocation to his dignity. He had not even said anything, and she already ran away? She really was bold! She had even taken his child away!
Wesley was speechless. How was this nothing?
