My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) novel Chapter 77

The next day, Aunt Valerie saw Eudora sleeping on the sofa when she came.

She didn't change her clothes. But, both the table and the kitchen had been cleaned up.

Aunt Valerie quickly woke Eudora up. "Miss, are you okay?"

Eudora shook her head and looked at the bright sunlight that shone through the windows.

She asked, "Has he come back?"

Aunt Valerie replied, "I'm afraid that it's gonna take a few days if Sir really went to America."

That's right.

She got up in a hurry and answered, "I'm going to work now."

Her head was spinning as soon as she stood up. Eudora almost fell and Aunt Valerie quickly grabbed her. "You'd better take a day off. You don't look very well."

"I'm fine!" Eudora answered.

In the company, Christopher brought a pile of documents to Eudora.

He exclaimed, "I've seen your designs. They're really well done. Let's start with this draft!"

"Sure!" Eudora nodded and got up.

"Then I have to go and take a look at the construction site and check some details myself."

"What's all the hurry? And I don't think you look too well!" Christopher questioned, "Did Amos scold you for what happened that day?"

Startled, Eudora looked at him. She had almost forgotten about it as though it had happened a century ago.

"No!" She shook her head.

"That's good! Well, if that's the case, I'm going with you then!"

Eudora nodded.

At the construction site, everyone was busy working.

The security leader ran to them as soon as they arrived.

"Good morning President Gellert and Miss Eudora. What brings you here?"

Eudora answered, "I need to go upstairs and check some details."

The man sighed, "I don't think it's safe. We have yet to complete the safety measures for the top floors. It would be better if you come again tomorrow."

Christopher added, "Eudora, let's come again tomorrow."

Eudora looked at the skyscraper in front of her and frowned.

In the meantime, Christopher and the security leader discussed the progress of the construction. He subconsciously turned around and asked, "Eudora, what do you think?" Only then did he realize Eudora was gone.

"Where is she?" He asked.

A man walked past them and answered, "Miss Eudora, you mean? She went upstairs just now!"

Christopher's face changed at once.

Perplexed, the security leader stuttered, "Didn't I just tell her? She can't go there..."

The security leader quickly called a few men to follow him to look for Eudora while Christopher followed after them.

Eudora was anxious and she didn't know why. She felt as if she was a girl who urgently wanted to prove her abilities.

She put down the notes in her hand and took out a tape to measure the lengths repeatedly.

Harley added, "What are you going to do with this woman?" He had heard from the doctor too. Amos might be able to give her some monetary compensation to lighten his guilt if she had been living well all these while.

But now, that was obviously not an option.

"I don't know!" Amos answered, "Let's talk about it when she wakes up!"

Harley sighed. "Alright! You must be exhausted. Go back and take a rest. Clint and I will be here to watch her."

Amos nodded. When he was about to turn around, Harley grabbed his arm and asked, "Where are your rashes? Didn't you just touch her?"

Amos didn’t even notice it. He looked at his arms and legs and found no rashes.

"It must be related! She saved you when you were young. That's good. Maybe you'll recover slowly!"

Amos nodded. "I hope so!"

In fact, this was no longer a problem after he started living with Eudora.

When he returned to the hotel, his mind was filled with Eudora's face. He had disappeared for two days. She must be anxious.

He took a vitamin and saw the message Eudora sent him two days ago. He didn't manage to reply to her.

He quickly typed out the message but hesitated before he sent it out. He pondered for a while and called Eudora directly.

He had missed her birthday and she must be blaming him now.

Amos grinned at the thought of her disappointed face.

He waited on the line for a while and frowned. When he was about to hang up, a man's voice was heard on the other side of the call.

"Hello!"

Amos was silent for three seconds before he asked, "Christopher?"
