My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 958

"Cutie Pie!" Naomi shouted. It was only then that Benedict returned to his senses and chased after her,

calling, "I'm coming!"

Naomi raised her voice while placing an order as she entered with an empty stomach.

"Beer, tacos, nachos, I'll take them all!"

The shopkeeper had already known them quite well and quickly replied, "Sure, please hold on!"

A while later, Naomi finally managed to indulge in tacos and beer.

She mumbled, "I guess my palate really does suit street food!"

Benedict overheard her. He paused for a moment before asking, "Did you have some French cuisine

just now? Don't you dislike that the most?"

Naomi was stunned and quickly brushed him off, "It's actually not a big deal to occasionally switch to

other flavours for a change!"

Benedict picked up a glass of beer and said metaphorically, "I guess the usual is better than trying out

new things, aren't I right?"

This time, Naomi didn't answer him. Instead, she snatched the glass of beer from Benedict's hand.

"Kids shouldn't drink beer."

Benedict pursed his lips and grumbled, "I'm already sixteen! I'm no longer a teenager who needs to be

supervised."

Naomi was baffled at his statement, "Since when were you sixteen?"

"Including the ten months in my mother's tummy, then why not?"

Naomi was lost for words. She snapped, "Shut up! That's not the way to count it. Anyways, you're not

allowed to drink because I said so! Brats like you shouldn't follow my example of drinking beer!" They

enjoyed their food and left the store, absolutely satiated and satisfied.

Naomi couldn't help but whistle, "That was amazing!"

Before she could finish her words, she suddenly sprained her ankle. She cried, "Ouch!"

Benedict held her up and said, "Wow! You're wearing high heels? You deserved it!"

Naomi gritted her teeth and hissed, "You douche! Can't you have a little sympathy for me? My foot

hurts, but I have to go to work tomorrow. It wasn't easy to get on my manager's good side, and I don't

want to mess things up because of this."

Benedict frowned and finally turned around to help her. He took off his shoes and threw them to

Naomi.

"Put them on!"

Naomi asked curiously, "Then what are you going to wear?"

"I'll wear yours!"

Naomi couldn't help but laugh, "Are you going to wear high heels? I'm really looking forward to it!"

Afterwards, Benedict really put on her shoes. He looked slender as he wasn't always in the pink of

health and he lacked working out. Thus, wearing high heels made him look more feminine compared to

a tomboy like her!

Naomi burst into laughter, "Cutie Pie, I think those shoes are really suitable for you. One day, I'll buy

you a set of clothes to match with!"

Benedict glared at her and groaned, "Why would you need to do that? Why don't you just give me

yours?"

"That won't do!" Naomi turned away.

"Why not? Aren't you complaining that your foot hurts?"

"Don't even think about it!" Naomi pursed her lips. Nelson had given her the set of clothes and shoes,

so there was no way she would give them to others!

Benedict had probably figured it out, so he simply stopped asking!

"Forget it, if you don't want to, then just say so. But remember, mind your stomach! You'd better not

starve yourself in the future!"

Upon hearing this, Naomi rolled her eyes at him.

"You little brat, how dare you lecture me? Oh, I see! In the past, I had been lecturing you too much, so

this is your way of getting back at me! Am I right?"

Back when he had to undergo an operation, she had felt guilty because she thought it was her fault for

not taking care of him well.

Since then, she would remind him to take care of his body whenever they were playing together.

Unexpectedly, in just a dozen years, the little boy had grown up and began to lecture her. In truth, he

was barely a teenager!

It was just that...

Naomi looked at Benedict, who was currently hobbling in high heels right in front of her. Although he

was only around fifteen or sixteen years old, he was very tall, just like his father.

The baby fat he used to have in his cheeks was basically gone. If the two of them walked together and

said that they were of the same age, no one would doubt them.

"Just think of it as revenge then! Anyways, pay attention to yourself! Don't forget everything just

because you are in love!"

He was mumbling towards the end of his sentence. Though, Naomi wasn't paying attention to him at

all.

By the time they got in the car, Naomi was exhausted. She leaned back in her seat and patted Benedict

on the shoulder.

"Wake me up when we get home!"

Benedict sighed and instructed the chauffeur.

"Let's go!"

He was still too young to drive, so he could only have the chauffeur send him here!

Looking at Naomi who was sleeping soundly, he couldn't help but lean over and place her head on his

shoulder.

He sighed silently, thinking to himself, "Why won't you wait for me for a few more years? Is Nelson

really that captivating? Would he treat you better than I will?"

However, Naomi, who was deep asleep, had no idea of his concerns.

At Clearwater Bay, Eudora waited outside of the house after dinner. She was constantly looking

around.

"Why hasn't Naomi come back yet?"

Amos felt helpless and could only try to assure her, "Didn't she say that she had something to do? Why

are you so worried?"

Eudora rolled her eyes at him and scoffed, "Aren't you worried too? You've been here since this

afternoon, while I just got here!"

Amos was speechless.

"I just came out to enjoy the flora and fauna in the courtyard!"

"Are you sure you can enjoy it in the darkness?" This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Cindy was observing them silently, hoping that they would start bickering anytime soon. She was

anticipating it since Amos had let Eudora have her way ever since they got married. They hadn't had

an argument in years!

A marriage without some sort of argument would be too boring, wouldn't it?

However, the very next second, Amos had already given up.

"Fine, I give in!"

Cindy was at a loss for words.

In the end, reality had not lived up to her expectations.

As she was deep in her thoughts, she heard the sound of a car stopping outside. Naomi got out of the

car and waved to the person in the car. Then, she turned and walked towards the house.

As soon as she walked through the gates, she saw Amos and Eudora standing in the yard, which

surprised her.

"Mom, Dad, what are you doing? Why are you standing here in the middle of the night?"

Eudora looked at the car that just left and asked, "Were you out with Benedict?"

Naomi was dumbstruck and immediately looked back at the car.

"Um... Yeah! But..."

"Good!" Eudora breathed a sigh of relief and immediately turned around. She declared, "And here I

was, worried sick! I'm heading in, I need to continue watching that drama of mine!"

Naomi was about to follow her mother in.

However, Amos called out to her, stopping her in her tracks.

"You didn't go out with Benedict, did you?"

Naomi was astounded.

"Mom already asked..."

"Your mother is trying to save you some embarrassment, but I'm not stupid. You have never dressed up

so formally whenever you hang out with Benedict."

As expected, wisdom grew with age!

Naomi nodded and admitted, "You're right, dad. I went out for a meal with Nelson! Don't worry, nothing

else happened other than that!"

In fact, Amos had known about it even before he asked. His daughter was going on a date with a guy,

so he had already sent someone to keep an eye on them.

Even though Nelson had revealed that he was Vincent, Amos would not let his guard down. He was

always alert.

This was especially true when it came to the matters regarding the women in his family. He couldn't

afford being careless.
