My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) novel Chapter 919

During weekdays, Leslie would pick up Juju after class.

Therefore, Sugar bun would be the only one at home.

When Eudora entered the house, she noticed that Sugar Bun was not in the living room.

After she placed down the groceries she had bought, she saw Amos coming down from the stairs.

"Sugar Bun is asleep. If you are busy at night, you don't have to cook."

"No, I'm not busy," Eudora shook her head hurriedly.

Initially, she felt a bit embarrassed at the thought of having to suck up to Amos while Sugar Bun was awake.

Now that he was asleep, she could do so without needing to worry!

Yet, she completely missed the smirk on Amos' face, as though he was slowly luring a prey into his trap.

"If that's the case, let me help you!" Amos offered as he rolled up his sleeves.

However, Eudora stopped him and said, "How can I make you help me? You're already doing a lot taking care of the children at home. You don't have to help me since I don't cook often, and this meal is something I want to make for you as thanks for what you've done so far! Now that Sugar Bun is asleep, you can take this chance to do something you'd like to do."

"Didn't you like to play chess? Or watch the financial channel on television, or read some books..."

Amos could not interrupt her at all. In the end, she shoved him out of the kitchen.

This confirmed whatever he was thinking about. However, he played along with her and went to the living room to watch some television.

After Eudora sent Amos out of the kitchen, she started preparing the dishes calmly.

She made sure to make all of Amos’ s favorite dishes. After she had done cooking, she started plating the dishes on the table, even lighting up the candle she had bought to concoct a romantic dinner atmosphere.

"Alright, it's time to eat!"

As soon as Amos turned around, he saw a grand candlelight dinner prepared for him.

"Didn't you say that today was a normal day? Why are you being so romantic?"

"It's really nothing! Candlelight dinners are supposed to be eaten with steak and wine, but I know you don't really like steak. Hence, I replaced it with some of your favorite dishes. Do you think it's a little strange?"

Amos shook his head and smiled, "No, it’s not."

"That's great. Try some salad and tell me if it's good or not."

Amos took a bite and complimented her, "It's delicious."

"What about the casserole?"

"It's pretty good."

"Try the mushroom soup too!"

"That tastes amazing!"

In short, no matter what he ate, he would tell her that it was delicious.

Eudora was hopeful about finding a chance for her to slip in her request during their conversation. However, she didn't even manage to find the right timing to do so.

After giving it some thought, she decided to change her tactics.

"Do you want a drink? I bought a bottle of your favorite wine. Let me get it for you!"

Amos nodded.

Eudora got up happily to grab the bottle of wine. She did not notice that Amos was cooperating with her very well throughout the night!

The only thing on her mind now was how she was close to succeeding!

She quickly opened the wine and poured a glass for both of them. Eudora looked at Amos and said, "Here, cheers!"

Amos took a sip, "It's good!"

Eudora also took a sip. However... it wasn't as good as she thought it was!

She bought the wine with the intention to get Amos drunk but she had forgotten that she could not handle alcohol well! She already felt a little dizzy after taking one sip.

However, she couldn't retreat here! Eudora quickly flashed Amos a smile.

"Let's toast again!"

Amos handed the empty glass to her. His gaze was focused on her now blurred gaze as he smirked.
