Chapter 408 A Sight to Behold
Kesha, whose expression was indiscernible at this moment, was feeling even more dejected than Steven. After standing there blankly for a moment, she slowly walked over and grabbed his hand.
“Calm down. I’ll go over there right now and find out what’s going on exactly. I don’t believe that Amos could be that forgiving, so as to accept Eudora’s child even though he is well aware that the child is not his.”
Steven was still not pleased, “What should I do now then? Should I just watch as Amos and Bethany gang up and kick my as* off?”
Kesha paused for a moment and said, “Dear, don’t worry! It hasn’t started yet, has it? As soon as the enemies are in a disarray, that will be our window of opportunity.”
Kesha was a foolish person in the past.
However, she had garnered countless experiences and knowledge after spending many years around men. She even had a femme fatale temperament, which fascinated Steven the more he looked at her.
He pulled her into his arms and said, “Kesha, I really do like you.”
Kesha quirked her lips, “Didn’t you dislike me just now?”
“Who said that?” Steven laughed as he pushed her down on the couch. “It’s not what you say, but what you do that matters…”
…
Eudora had been confined in the house for the past two days. She was about to lose her mind.
Unfortunately for her, Amos was not busy at that moment. Hence, he would stare at her every day like a tiger stalking at its prey.
She would eat, drink, sleep, and exercise according to Amos’ schedule. The good news was that she could finally feel her appetite getting much better. She threw up much less frequently too.
However, it was at the expense of her liberty.
Alas!
Eudora leaned back on the bed and sighed.
At this moment the phone rang. It was Gordon’s voice from the other end, “Eudora…”
Eudora was shocked, “Dad?”
Soon, Felicia took over the phone and spoke,
“Your father is missing you again. You haven’t been back for the past few days. Why don’t you come over today for dinner?”
Eudora had been feeling extremely bored at home. Therefore, when an opportunity for her to go out for some fresh air outside came, she immediately nodded, “Sure!”
She happily got out of the bed and ran out after hanging up the phone.
As soon as she arrived at the door, she bumped into Amos, who was coming in from the yard. Amos picked her up as soon as he noticed that Eudora was barefooted.
“Why aren’t you wearing shoes again?”
Eudora was delighted at that moment. Therefore, she didn’t seem to take Amos’ reproach to heart. She just told him with a smile, “I just got a call from the George family. Let’s go there for dinner today!”
Amos was skeptical, “Why are you so happy?”
Eudora’s heart skipped a beat. Were her actions too obvious?
She shook her head hurriedly, “Not really. It’s just been a long time since I went…”
Amos laughed, “Silly! Are you still trying to fool me?” He then carried her back to her room. Eudora quickly wrapped her arms around his neck, “Could we please go over for dinner? I feel much better now after you took good care of me. If you don’t believe me, look, I’ve already put on some weight…”
She pinched her cheek and said, “Look, it’s fleshy!”
Amos reached out and gave her a pinch. Her cute face was really mesmerizing.
In fact, he had already decided to let her go over to the George family residence, but he still couldn’t help but tease her, “You may go there for dinner if you wish, but you have to promise me that you will eat more fruits every day from now on.”
Eudora’s taste seemed to have changed ever since she had gotten pregnant. She became fond of savory food and she would add peppers to most of her meals
Lately, the dishes at home all had one common ingredient, which was peppers.
However, such a diet was not good for her health. In order to coax her into eating more fruits, Amos, at one point, had used all threats and inducements, but to little effect.
Thus, he knew that his chance had arrived at that moment.
Eudora frowned and nodded reluctantly.
“Alright then!”
“Good girl!” Amos lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead before helping her out with her clothes.
…
At the George family residence,
Kesha and Steven were sitting on the sofa, awaiting Eudora’s arrival.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
Felicia’s contented voice came from behind, “I’ve already told you that you should get along with Eudora. I’m glad that you have taken the initiative to invite Eudora over for dinner. Listen to my words and start fixing your relationship with Eudora. Your father will be delighted too, as this is what he had always hoped to see.”
Kesha agreed, but her heart was filled with disdain.
She would not mend her relationship with Eudora, not in this lifetime!
She wanted to see just how dreadful Eudora’s life was in the Granger Family. Kesha figured that Eudora hadn’t come back for such a long time because Amos had discovered that she was pregnant with someone else’s child. She must have been left out in the cold, wasn’t she?
She thought about Eudora’s haggard face. The last time she saw her in such a state was when Eudora was still living at Felix’s house. It was truly nostalgic.
The more Kesha thought about it, the more anxious she became. She couldn’t help but ask again.
“Why isn’t she here yet?”
Felicia scolded her, “Why do you care so much about Eudora all of a sudden? Couldn’t you just wait a little longer? Their place is quite far from here. I’ll go out and have a look.”
She then went out to the porch.
Kesha turned to look at Steven.
“If everything had gone well, you might even see Amos being all solemn and pitiful! It would definitely be a sight to behold!”
Steven reached out and tickled her jaw, “You’re so naughty.”
Kesha quirked a smile, “I’m indeed a naughty woman. Do you like it?”
“I love it. How could I not like it?”
At this moment, Felicia’s voice could be heard from outside.
“Eudora, you are finally here!”
Kesha stood up subconsciously and pulled Steven up from the couch, “Let’s go. Here comes the show!”
“There’s no need to rush…”
As she walked to the door, Kesha ran her hand through her long, delicate hair subconsciously. She was dressed beautifully on that day, obviously to aggravate Eudora even more.
She opened the door once she straightened her clothes and tidied up her hair.
“Eudora, you are back!”
Before she could even say more, Kesha had already noticed that Eudora, who was supposed to look haggard, looking extremely spirited. She was wearing a very simple loose dress and without any makeup on her face, and she looked extremely radiant and beautiful.
President Granger had protected her like a unicorn every day. She ate, slept, and exercised in strict accordance with his regulations. It was only natural for her to be radiant and beautiful.
By contrast, Kesha’s exquisite outfit made her look a little tacky!
Kesha’s face stiffened as she cursed in her heart.
However, on second thought, Eudora had already lost her memories. Perhaps, she did not notice Amos’ indifference towards her. That probably explained her radiance, considering that she might not have that much affection towards Amos after all.
At this moment, Amos came out with Juju in his arms.
Amos frowned the moment he saw Eudora. Kesha noticed that exchange and her heart was filled with joy. It was just as she had expected. Amos had begun to despise Eudora, hadn’t he?
Unexpectedly, Amos grabbed Eudora’s hand at the very next second.
“Why did you get off the car so quickly? What if you hit something accidentally?”
Kesha was shocked.
