Chapter 869: Chapter 869 How Can I Bear to Let It Happen

The next day, Juju’s time at home ended and she went back to Leslie’s place.

In the morning, Amos and Eudora sent her over themselves.

Since the last time Leslie had found out about Amos’s accident, he had not seen him. These days, there were many rumors about Amos on the Internet, so Leslie asked Raymond to invite them inside.

The couple looked at each other then went in.

Leslie was playing chess as usual. Upon seeing Amos walk in, he no longer treated him as harshly as before.

He pointed at the chair across from him and said, “Sit down! Let’s play a game!”

Amos did not hesitate either, sitting down and started playing chess with Leslie.

When Juju saw the scene, she excused herself and started training once again. Eudora followed her out to watch her for a while. When she saw how happy Juju was during training, she finally felt at ease.

Eudora did not want to disturb her, so she silently returned indoors.

They were already at the endgame. When Amos moved his piece, he said, “Checkmate.”

Leslie snorted, “Don’t you know how to show your respect to your elders? You’re so aggressive. No wonder you have so many enemies!”

Amos did not back down as he retorted, “You’re not that aggressive, but you have a lot of enemies too!”

Leslie was taken aback.

Truth be told, Amos had already gone easy on him. At the very least, he had to be polite towards Leslie as he was training Juju.

However, Leslie refused to admit defeat, “I won’t talk about the past, but things are different now. I’m your senior. For Mr. Holt’s sake, I’d like to give you a word of advice. Even if you start from scratch now, don’t forget the one who has always stood by your side!”

His words made Eudora and Amos curious.

“What’s wrong?” Eudora asked.

Leslie had a downcast expression as he said, “Eudora, how could you not know about this? Don’t you surf the Internet? I’ve seen it all. Whenever an article about Amos gets published, many girls comment about how they want to marry him. Some even refer to him as their husband. It’s absolutely ludicrous!”

Eudora burst into laughter.

She had thought that something serious had happened! She did not expect it to turn out this way.

“How can you laugh at such a moment? Your husband is about to be taken away!” Leslie was anxious.

Amos had been calm at first. However, he became nervous upon hearing what Leslie said.

“Eudora, I didn’t…”

Eudora grew even more amused.

“You two, that’s enough! All of that is just Internet slang! Many young girls call their favorite actors their husbands! Some of them would go as far as to call them their father!”

Leslie’s face was full of contempt as he grumbled, “The world is getting worse day by day! Don’t they have a father themselves?”

Eudora was in a state of exasperation.

“It’s not what you think. They’re just joking!”

“That won’t do either! How can they joke about their parents?”

Amos was also speechless, “You’re the only wife I have!”

Eudora rubbed her temples and realized that she had no way to justify herself to the two gentlemen in front of her. Leslie was, after all, old-fashioned due to his age!

However, Amos was still young. How could he be so behind on trends as well?

Eudora’s phone rang at the same time, an excuse to get out of the room.

“What is it? It’s urgent and you need me to come back immediately? I’ll head back right away!”

After that, before Clint could speak, Eudora hung up on the call, “Uncle Clarke, I’ll get going first! There’s an emergency!”

Leslie hadn’t even finished speaking yet!

“You must take this seriously. No one should joke like this, for it just might become real!”

Amos nodded and said, “I will handle this!”

Eudora, helpless, just ignored them and ran off.

Back in the car, Eudora quickly called Clint and explained what had happened. Fortunately, it wasn’t something urgent, just that he had something that he wanted to ask her about.

After Eudora answered his questions one by one, she put down the phone and looked at Amos, who had been surfing the Internet with his phone ever since he had entered the car.

“I don’t mind those comments online, so you don’t have to care about them too!”

Amos looked at Eudora and asked, “Aren’t you jealous?”

Eudora shook her head, “Why would I be? It’s the Internet. I know that they’re just joking, so why should I get jealous?”

The gloomy expression on Amos’ face grew darker.

“Fine!”

Eudora looked at him, bemused.

She looked at the time and remembered the hospital. She told the driver, “Let’s go to the hospital first!”

Then, she thought of something and ordered again, “Stop at the street ahead. I want to buy something to bring to the hospital!”

When Eudora came back, she saw Amos putting down his phone.

After arriving at the hospital, the pediatrician arranged by Doctor Leon had arrived and was examining the child.

After the examination, the pediatrician had a complicated expression, “Let’s talk about this outside!”

“There’s no need for that. Let’s just talk here,” Thea stopped the doctor. “Tell me, is the bone marrow transplant perilous?”

The pediatrician opened his mouth and said, “Yes! Using the blood from the umbilical cord would be better…”

It was the umbilical cord blood yet again!

Harley closed his eyes. The pediatrician looked at Amos behind him and said.

The pediatrician looked at Amos, who was behind him, and said, “Of course, it’s just a suggestion. We will also do our best to save him without it. We’ll come up with a plan immediately!”

“I’ll take the umbilical cord blood route!” Thea suddenly said. “As long as I get pregnant within a month, you can extract the blood from the umbilical cord to treat my son after seven months, right?”

“Yes!” The pediatrician nodded.

“Will my other child face any risks?”

“No!” said the pediatrician. “It’s just a simple operation and there won’t be any danger at all!”

“Alright!” Thea nodded firmly. “You can start making arrangements for that. In the following eight months, you must make sure my child is well protected!”

“Thea…” Harley’s face shifted slightly.

“Thank you, Doctor!” Thea ignored Harley and sent the doctor out.

The pediatrician noticed that the atmosphere was not quite right and gave Doctor Leon an uneasy look. Doctor Leon then took another look at Amos and Eudora.

In the end, all of them followed him out.

Thea and Harley were the only ones left in the ward Then, she said to him, “I’ve made my decision. I don’t care whether you agree with it or not, but I must do it! I am a mother and I want to protect my child!”

Harley was not in a good mood either.

Thus, his tone was a little anxious as he spoke, “What about me? You only care about the child, but what do you want me to do? You are my wife, but now you’re telling me that you want to have a baby with someone else. How can I bear to let that happen?”
