My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) novel Chapter 900

Humans were made in a way that they would get over their sadness if nobody asked them about it.

However, if there was someone who was concerned about us, we might slump into dejection for a longer time.

Juju was still a child after all. After hearing Amos' words, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Daddy, Vincent is still so young, why did he have to die?"

He let out a sigh and said, "It's my fault! If I had known his whereabouts and went to find him earlier, maybe he wouldn't have died! Then, you wouldn't have lost your friend!"

"Daddy..."

He swiped his daughter's hair away and allowed her tears to fall onto his legs.

His daughter was still young, and there were still many things that she didn't understand yet.

Parting forever with someone whom she cared about was probably the cruelest thing for her at her age. Amos didn't want to reason her with logic at the moment.

To him, there was no need for his daughter to know about the vicissitudes of life yet.

He would be gratified to see her stay childish and happy forever.

Just as he was thinking about it, Juju stopped crying. She wiped away her tears and stood up.

"Daddy, can you give the brooch to me? I want to keep it as a keepsake!"

Amos looked at the brooch. Now, his family were the only ones left in the Granger family. Therefore, the brooch was kind of meaningless anymore.

Therefore, he nodded and put the brooch into her hand.

"I'll give it to you as a keepsake then."

He paused for a moment, and then spoke again.

"It's just that you have to promise me that you won't be too upset. Otherwise, your mommy will be worried about you!"

She nodded and said, "Okay!"

After Eudora finished taking care of Sugar Bun, she came to the living room and found that no one was there.

She went straight upstairs as soon as she remembered that Charlie was going to tell Amos about his finding. Unexpectedly, she came face to face with Amos and Juju as they were coming out of the study room.

She walked up anxiously and fixed her gaze at Juju. She tried to read the emotions through her expression, but it turned out that Juju was very reserved, just like her father. There wasn't any trace of joy or sorrow to be seen on her face at all.

However, after being stared at by her mother for a long time, Juju's lips twitched.

"Mommy, why do you keep looking at me?"

Eudora shook her head and said, "No, nothing!"

"Then, I'll go back to my room."

Eudora quickly added, "Aren't you going to stay up with us for the countdown to the new year? I've bought party hats for us to wear while counting down. And also party blowouts!

Upon hearing that, Juju stopped. Eudora hurriedly handed Sugar Bun over to her.

"Take your brother downstairs first. Dad and I will be there soon."

After the two children left, she looked apprehensively at Amos.

"What's going on?"

He closed his eyes and said, "The child is gone."

Her heart skipped a beat, and the image of Vincent immediately appeared in her mind. It was true that Vincent's mother had deceived her, whereas he had also been used to do bad things to her.

However, she always felt that the child was innocent, and she couldn't be cruel to him.

Now that she heard that the child was gone, she still felt a little sorrowful. In her distress, she thought about Juju.

Amos was confused and said, "What?"

"You are still playing dumb! Juju must have known the news of Vincent's death. Do you think that I'm not able to see through it? Usually, her happiness comes from her heart and it's genuine. But just now, she was forcing a smile. Besides, she actually went to make a wish solemnly despite being just a child!"

She sighed and said, "She must be very sad."

He reached out and held her in his arms, "You have underestimated our daughter's psychological endurance. She will be fine!"

She was still displeased and said, "How dare you say that? No matter what you guys are doing, it's wrong to lie to me! Why do you have to lie to me?"

He said helplessly, "Because you will be distraught. Look at you! Like I said, you are brooding over it now."

She was at a loss for words for a moment.

"Amos... Uh..."

Before she could finish her words, Amos had already shut her lips with a kiss.

Meanwhile, the fireworks outside the window flew up into the sky one after another. He lowered his head and whispered in Eudora's ear.

"This is the first time that we celebrate the New Year officially. Let's stop quarreling, okay? Honey, I love you!"

Her voice became stuck in her throat due to the tender kiss!

She looked at Amos' face, which became dimly lit by the light produced from the fireworks, and her heart was filled with happiness. She said, "Honey, I love you too!"

Although life was full of all kinds of delight and depression, there would still be surprises, which would break into their lives occasionally.

These surprises spiced up their lives. Sometimes, they might embitter their lives, but sometimes, they might sweeten them up as well.

And all they had to do was to hold each other's hand and stay in love with each other as a family.

Then, they would never be separated in the future!
