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.
"Miss Eudora, it's time to have breakfast!"
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 didn't 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.
"It's so kind of you, thank you."
Hodge shook his head and said, "I didn't 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. She's probably talking about Mr.
Nolan, right?"
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 couldn't help but ask.
"Why was I sleeping in the room next door all of a sudden? Did you arrange it?"
Hodge shook his head again and explained, "Miss Eudora, you were already there when I came. I've asked the nurse about it too. She said it was also the very handsome man who arranged for you to sleep there!"
At this point, Hodge couldn't help but smile.
"Mr. Nolan is really nice to you, Miss Eudora. You shouldn't be mad at him again..."
Eudora didn't say anything and took another bite of the oatmeal. Suddenly, she heard Hodge's surprised voice again, saying, "Master Tyler, you're awake? I'll get you a glass of water."
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, "Master Tyler, are you hungry? We happened to buy some light oatmeal that is suitable for you. Would you like to have some?"
Tyler didn't say anything. The father and daughter duo really had the same temper.
Hodge was a little helpless. He then looked at Eudora and asked, "Miss Eudora, why don't you feed him?"
Fortunately, Eudora nodded this time. Otherwise, he really wouldn't know how to smooth things over.
She filled up some of the oatmeal in another bowl, walked over, and adjusted Tyler's 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 didn't say anything and could only send the oatmeal to Tyler's lips.
"Eat something first!"
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.
"Do you want another bowl?" Eudora asked.
Tyler opened his mouth and muttered something. Eudora didn't get it, hence she moved a little closer.
The next second, she froze. That was because Tyler had said, "Fortunately, I'm still alive. Otherwise, I won't be able to watch my precious daughter get married anymore!"
Her eyes reddened all of a sudden as she was caught off guard!
Eudora turned her head away hastily and asked again, "Do you want more?"
"I have already given in. Are you still not going to let me meet my lovely grandson and granddaughter? And the man you're always missing? Is he not coming to the hospital to visit me, his father-in-law?"
Eudora felt awkward and chuckled, "I have never met a person like you. Do you expect others to repay you immediately after you've given them some benefits? How badly have you treated him before? How can it be so easy for both of you to reconcile now?"
Tyler was instantly unhappy and retorted, "How dare he! No matter what, he is still my son-in-law! He is not allowed to hold grudges towards me!"
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, "Uncle Holt, it's good to see you recovered! I'm relieved!"
After that, he took another look at Eudora and said, "You didn't rest well for the entire night, did you? Why don't I stay here and accompany Uncle Holt, and you can go rest for a while?"
Eudora was stunned and remembered how she woke up in the ward next door this morning. She asked him, "When did you leave last night?"
"I 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?"
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.
"I asked the chefs at home to cook something for you in the morning. Try it, does it suit your taste?"
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 wasn't Fabian, who could it be?
Eudora thought of the dream last night and the shoulder that gave her a sense of security...
Amos. It must've been him.
