My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 964

From the rearview mirror, Richard could see the three in the back seat. One of them was Naomi, who

had an anxious look on her face.

The other was Nelson, whose expression was so gloomy that it threatened to turn the sky dark; while

the other was Benedict, who was uncomfortable but not completely unconscious.

More importantly, Benedict - who had been sitting in the middle - felt that Nelson was forcibly dragging

him over to lean on him. Hence, he started struggling desperately.

However, Nelson stopped him easily.

Richard looked at the scene silently. For some reason, it looked much like a scene out of a fairytale,

where the evil villain would snatch the innocent princess away.

He held back his laughter.

The next second, he noticed Nelson glaring at him murderously.

"Drive faster!"

"Okay!" Richard quickly withdrew his gaze and concentrated on driving.

When they arrived at the hospital, Naomi wanted to carry Benedict again after the car was parked, but

Nelson stopped her. He said to her, "I'll do it!"

Richard was once again stunned! However, things looked pretty urgent, so he could only follow them

silently.

The doctor at that hospital had always been the one taking care of Benedict's health. After the doctor

was done with the examination, he called for Naomi.

"It's not a big problem, it's just his disease acting up again. Ordinary people will definitely be fine, but

Benedict here is different. He can't be too anxious or emotional! I recommend that he stays in the

hospital for another two days for observation!"

"Okay!" Naomi nodded, "I'll go and process his documents for hospitalization right away!"

"Also!" The doctor reminded her again, "Remember to pay attention to his mood these days. He can't

take any more emotional blows!"

"Okay!" Naomi nodded.

Nelson looked at Naomi who was busy running up and down for Benedict and had completely ignored

him. His heart was filled with an inexplicable feeling of unhappiness.

Richard could not help but remind him, "Mr. Luther, there are still things to be taken care of in the

company that require your immediate attention. Just look at the time..."

Nelson adjusted his tie and frowned, "You can go back and deal with them! Just give me the meeting

minutes! I will make a decision based on the minutes by tomorrow morning. It won't waste any time!"

Richard wanted to cry, but he had no choice but to follow orders. After all, Nelson was his boss.

After Richard left, Nelson finally looked at the woman who was still waiting in line at the payment

counter. He couldn't help but frown.

Naomi and Benedict had accompanied each other for more than ten years. They looked really close

together!

Soon, Naomi came back. She brought a nurse with her, who helped her push Benedict to the ward

together. After Benedict was treated, his mood was much more stable. However, he still felt slightly

depressed seeing Naomi and Nelson standing together. He turned around unhappily, unwilling to meet

their gaze.

"You two can go back now!"

Naomi shook her head and advised him, "Auntie Thea will only be able to come later. I'll stay here with

you for a while more!"

"There's no need to. You should leave now!"

Naomi was confused and asked, "What’s the matter?" NôvelDrama.Org © content.

"Get out!" Benedict suddenly raised his voice angrily. Naomi was worried his illness would act up again

and quickly agreed, "Okay, okay, I'll leave now, so don't be angry!"

After saying so, she immediately turned and left. Naturally, Nelson followed behind her as well.

"Let's go. I'll send you home!" Nelson said as he brushed some non-existent dust off his cuffs.

"It’s fine, you should head back first! I have to wait for Benedict's parents to arrive!"

Nelson paused in his tracks.

"Do you have a very good relationship with Benedict?"

"Yes, that's right," Naomi nodded and explained, "I met him when I was very young. He's not really in

the pink of health, so I tend to pay extra care and attention towards him. Uncle Louis and Auntie Thea

are both very nice to me, so it's only right for me to take care of him like a younger brother!"

Nelson pursed his lips and asked, "What about me then?"

Naomi was stunned and asked, "You? I have also taken care of you! Have you already forgotten?"

Nelson's expression darkened slightly before grumbling, "So to you, I'm the same as him? If I did not

appear in your life as Nelson Luther, would you..."

Before he could even utter the words "fall for Benedict", Nelson stopped himself.

What was he doing? Was he jealous? How was that even possible!

Everything was supposed to be just an act! Could it be that he had fallen for her for real?

"Nelson? What's the matter?" Naomi called his name out suspiciously.

Nelson came back to his senses, his voice ice cold as he excused himself, "I still have some things to

attend to. I'll leave first!"

"What? Nelson!" Naomi called out after him, but he had already turned away and stormed off right after

finishing what he wanted to say.

Naomi was a little confused. Vincent's temper seemed to be completely different from when he was a

child. In fact, he was pretty capricious! He must have suffered a lot during these years!

As she thought about it, Thea's voice could be heard louder and louder from the corridor.

"Benedict!"

"Auntie Thea, over here!" Naomi hastily waved her hand.

Thea ran over quickly and grabbed Naomi's hand, asking, "How is he? What did the doctor say?"

"He's okay, you can be rest assured! According to the doctor, he's just affected because he hasn't been

in a good mood recently. He will be fine after getting some rest!"

Upon hearing that, Thea gradually tightened her grip on Naomi's arm.

Since young, Naomi had been raised by Amos as though she was his son, not his daughter. Be it her

job or her physical prowess, she was at the peak of her abilities. Though, the same couldn't be said for

her emotional intelligence!

However, it could not be helped. How would a person who trained and fought daily be good at things

like romance?

Naomi was not aware of Benedict's feelings for her, but as a mother, how could Thea not be aware of

her son's feelings?

"Naomi, would you like to rethink what I’ve told you before? You and Benedict can..."

"Auntie Thea!" Naomi shook her head and rejected her politely, "Are you joking with me again? I

already have a boyfriend! But don't worry. Benedict is and will always be my younger brother. I'll take

good care of him!"

Thea had no choice but to gulp down whatever advice she was planning to say.

It was destined that her son was not going to have a good time sorting his feelings out.

"I'll go in and take a look at him!"

"Okay. Benedict suddenly got angry and refused to see me. I'll buy him some of the lollipops that he

likes. He enjoys eating that every time he gets hospitalized, so please help me give them to him later!"

Thea nodded and said, "Okay!"

Naomi went home and told her parents about Benedict's illness. As a result, Eudora became anxious

too.

"I'll visit him tomorrow! His illness is really concerning."

Naomi nodded and added, "Then I'll cook some soup tomorrow morning. Please help me to deliver it to

him. I won't be going!"

Eudora was stunned and asked, "Didn't you always accompany him every time he gets hospitalized?

Why aren't you going this time?"

Eudora thought that it was because of Nelson, but she did not expect Naomi to shake her head.

"Benedict is angry with me, so he does not want to see me!"

Eudora buried her face in her palms. What a dense daughter she had!

And here she had thought that Naomi's emotional intelligence was high! Who on earth did she take

after?

Eudora turned around and looked at Amos. His emotional intelligence was quite high, so maybe she

was similar to their grandfather who had passed away?

That's right, that old man liked her the most when he was still alive!

It was really genetics then! Eudora was thinking if she should tell Naomi about it, but Naomi had

already turned around and headed upstairs.

Eudora sighed. She was unhappy since she had no one to advise now. With that, she scooted over to

Amos' side and gave him two light punches to the chest.

"I'm so mad. Your family's emotional intelligence is really..."

Amos reached out to hold her hand and asked, "Does it hurt?"

Eudora replied, "... Is this your way of telling me you have high emotional intelligence?"
