Chapter 394 You’re Overreacting
Eudora refused to entertain Kesha. She felt that Kesha’s temper had gotten even stranger after eight years.
Kesha used to be a hot-tempered person in the past, and she would show her emotions on her face. However, she actually began to talk hypocritically now.
It gave Eudora the creeps all over.
Even Amos ignored her too. Kesha was a little pissed and she strode off after that.
She rolled her eyes disdainfully as she turned around.
Kesha chided in her heart, “Eudora, why the heck are you so arrogant? When Steven succeeds with his project, he will have his own new company. You and Amos won’t be able to catch up by then.”
“I’ll let you have your way for a while!”
Thinking of this, Kesha’s mood was finally soothed. She smiled as she entered the door.
When Eudora saw that Kesha had walked into the house, she did not dare to stay outside any longer. Juju was still inside. It would be bad if Kesha were to lose her temper and hurt Juju!Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
She quickly let go of Amos. Eudora was about to go in, but after two steps, she seemed to remember something and she dragged Amos along.
“Let’s go in together.”
Amos pursed his lips and said, “Eudora…”
“Brace up!” Eudora winked at him slyly. “I’m here. I’ll definitely protect you!”
Amos was amused, “What…”
Eudora thought that perhaps Gordon would accept Amos since he had already regarded Juju as herself and accepted her wholeheartedly.
Another more important reason was she realized that she might have loved Amos with all her heart in the past. When she saw Amos alone outside, she actually felt distressed.
That feeling came from the bottom of her heart!
No matter what, she knew that she had to be together with Juju and Amos. If Gordon couldn’t accept Amos, she would then leave with him.
Thinking of this, Eudora became more determined and brought Amos into the house.
Gordon and Juju were having a good time in the room. When Eudora came in holding Amos’s hand, Juju called happily, “Daddy…”
Gordon heard the sound and looked over, and there was a fleeting change in his expression. However, Juju was extremely observant. She quickly distracted his attention.
“Grandpa, look at this!”
Gordon’s eyes were completely filled with Juju. When he heard Juju’s words, he was immediately distracted, and Amos was relieved of the crisis.
…
Felicia dragged Kesha upstairs as soon as she returned.
“How did it go? Did you find any clues?”
Kesha was initially placated, but she became furious as soon as she heard about this matter.
“Mom, do you still have the nerve to say it? Because of your request, Steven fell out with me!”
Felicia was stunned. “Why? Why did you guys fall out over such a trivial matter? I thought that you two have a good relationship.”
In the face of Felicia’s questioning, Kesha suddenly lapsed into silence.
Felicia’s concern for her daughter was indisputable, so she added.
“Kesha, I don’t expect you to achieve anything much in life. But you’re not young anymore. You could see it for yourself, right? Eudora’s daughter is all grown up! Just break up with Steven if you think that it’s not going to work out. When you procure your father’s property, scoring another man would be easy peasy, right?”
Kesha was not as optimistic as she was. Although Felicia was rather selfish, she was much more easily contented than her. A little small advantage could play her into somebody’s hands. However, Kesha did not want to be the same as Felicia.
In order to keep Felicia from nagging any longer, Kesha interjected, “No, I mean, I don’t want us to be at each other’s throat over such a small matter. Just don’t rush me. I’m still working on it. Besides, Dad’s cognitive abilities have been deteriorating. He couldn’t possibly remember this. So, just relax!”
Felicia nodded reluctantly. Juju’s voice from downstairs reached their ears.
“Daddy, Mommy…”
Felicia couldn’t hide her admiration, “What an adorable child! It would be good if you have one of your own.”
Kesha seemed to have lost her patience, “Okay, I know. You should get down then!”
Only then did Felicia get up and continued, “Don’t go into hiding as soon as you come back. You have to get on well with your father. Otherwise, even if you found the box, it will all be in vain if your father is reluctant to give it to you! It’s almost lunchtime, remember to go downstairs then. Also, no matter what had happened in the past, avoid getting into any conflict with Eudora for the time being. It’s always good to please your father!”
“I know!” Kesha hissed impatiently.
Even so, she still got up and followed her downstairs.
Felicia was busy serving the dishes when she said, “Eudora, it’s rare for you to come back. I made a lot of your favorite food.”
Eudora was unwilling to eat here, but Gordon was reluctant to let go of her daughter, so she had no choice but to stay.
Felicia had deliberately arranged for Kesha and Eudora to sit on the left and right sides of Gordon. Unexpectedly, Gordon refused the seat and insisted on sticking with Juju.
Felicia was snubbed, so she just started the meal.
Eudora was pretty hungry. She had no appetite when she got up in the morning, so she didn’t eat much.
She ate two more spoonfuls of his favorite mashed potatoes. However, her chest felt a little uncomfortable after eating it.
Seeing her pale face, Amos asked hurriedly, “Are you alright? Do you want to stop by the hospital and get checked?”
Eudora shook her head, “It’s okay. It’s probably because I’ve eaten too much. I got a little sick!”
When Felicia heard her words, she quickly got up. “I have some fruit wine in the kitchen. It’ll reduce the queasiness. Let me get it for you!”
Eudora shook her head, “No, you don’t have to. I feel much better now!”
After that, she got up and went to the bathroom. Felicia nudged Kesha hurriedly and said, “Go and check on her.”
Kesha got up grudgingly and followed her. When she had just arrived at the door of the bathroom, she heard Eudora throwing up inside. She was so grossed out that she did not enter.
She stood outside for a while, then turned around and went back.
Eudora seemed to have thrown up everything in her stomach and finally felt relieved.
She returned to the table after cleaning herself up.
She lost her appetite after that, so she ate a few mouthfuls of fruit and that was it. After the meal, Gordon played with Juju, while Amos glanced at Eudora worriedly the whole time.
It seemed that her face had become paler after coming back from the bathroom.
Amos rubbed her cheek with his long finger and said, “I’ll call Doctor Leon so that he could check on you.”
Eudora shook her head, “Come on, you’re overreacting. I’m just tired! Besides, Doctor Leon is a surgeon, and all I had was an upset stomach. It’s not necessary.”
