In the third round, the vase finally pointed at Amos.
It worked as everybody wished. They couldn't help but smile at each other, and asked what they had been deliberating for two days.
"We want to know the reason behind your quarrel with each other!"
Eudora paused for a second before she looked, perplexed, at Amos. However, he was composed and said, "You all have been mistaken. We've never quarreled!"
Harley couldn't put up with him any longer.
He said, "Amos, we can tell that you're lying by looking at Eudora's eyes! Besides, we heard from Clint that she's not going to work! You could have made up a more convincing lie!"
After he said that, Amos looked disdainfully at him. Harley promptly shut his mouth.
Eudora was a bit discouraged. At first, she thought she would be able to get some information out of him, but in the end, he wasn't willing to say anything either.
Without hesitation, she got up and went straight to her room.
Thea nudged Tina, who was busy chewing on her beef, and pointed at Eudora while saying, "Go in and take a look on her!"
Tina nodded and urged Christopher, "Leave some beef Wellington for me!"
He replied helplessly, "Okay, I'll keep some for you!"
Inside the room, Eudora sat broodingly on the sofa.
Tina opened the door, with her head poked slightly through the opening of the door, she spoke.
"Eudora!"
She answered hurriedly, "Come in quickly. Didn't you say that you wanted to eat beef Wellington? Why are you here?"
Tina shook her head and said, "It's fine. Christopher kept some for me! So, I came in to check on you!"
Eudora saw the bliss on her face and felt a little emotional in her heart. She stretched out her hand and seated her down beside herself. She looked at her protruding belly.
"How does it feel to have a child?"
Tina immediately smiled and said, "Of course, it's great! In the past, I used to hear people say that having a child is a sweet burden, but now that I'm pregnant, I don't feel any burden at all. All I feel is the sweetness! Eudora, try to feel it, my child is so obedient!"
Eudora reached out to stroke her belly, "It can't move yet, you silly girl!"
Tina shook her head and said, "I don't care. In any case, my child is the most obedient! Furthermore, Christopher loves this child too. He takes good care of us everyday and he keeps talking to the child. I feel that he will definitely be a good father in the future!"
Eudora beamed with delight and said, "That's good!"
"Eudora," said Tina while she snuggled up to her. She rarely acted like a spoiled child since she grew up at Tyler's side. Without even thinking about it, she wouldn't be able to act in that way in front of Tyler either!
"I've decided that after I give birth to this child, I'll give birth to a few more!"
"It's very tiring to give birth to too many children! Are you sure about that?"
"Of course! Christopher said he would help me. It doesn't matter how many I have!"
Eudora became despondent again when she thought of herself.
Tina looked up at her and asked, "You've actually argued with Amos, haven't you? What's the reason?"
Eudora sighed. Originally, she didn't want to tell anyone, but now that she had touched on the topic with Tina, she couldn't hold it any longer.
"It's all because of the child! Christopher treats you so well that he agrees with you when you say you want a child. As for me, I didn't even say that I must give birth to another child, and it was just a casual question, but Amos was instantly agitated by that."
Tina caught on and said, "So, this is what has happened? Eudora, maybe you've misunderstood him."
She shook her head and said, "Probably. In fact, I know it's not that he doesn't love me, but I've asked him several times and I've told him to speak his mind frankly. However, he always refuses to tell me. This is what I'm angry with!"
Tina blinked her eyes. All of a sudden, a thought flashed through her mind.
"Eudora, I have a solution!"
She took out her phone and sent out a message before she grabbed Eudora's hand.
"Come on, let's go and see what's going on!"
Christopher, who had just received Tina's message at the downstairs, took action right away. He stepped on Harley's foot to give him a hint.
After that, he asked Amos, "Is it true that you didn't quarrel with Eudora?"
Harley understood and instantaneously followed his lead.
