My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) novel Chapter 1126

Eddison was stunned for a moment. Under the warm yellow light, her small hand seemed particularly thin.

Her hands did not look like an ordinary noble lady's fingers whose nails were usually covered in shiny rhinestones and elaborate nail art. She did not have a fancy manicure and only had just a light layer of transparent nail polish.

Her pink nails were quite adorable.

He guessed that she had scratched something when she was struggling just then. Her nails were chipped in several places, ruining her beautiful hands.

Eddison frowned and stayed still.

"I won't leave! I'll wait for your driver to pick you up!"

"Thank you!" she said as she trembled, still trying to look and act decently.

Eddison curled his lips and took half a step forward. Rachel, who was behind him, also followed him in reflex.

Eddison found that it was a little amusing.

Therefore, he muttered in a low voice, "You're so timid. If so, why did you complain about me?"

His tone was quite strange, as if he was doubtful, but it also sounded like he was teasing her. All in all, it did not sound threatening.

Rachel heard him, and her fingers paused. She suddenly understood that Eddison had thought that she had complained about the previous incident.

So, she hurriedly explained, "I did not complain about you! After I left that day, I took a taxi home. I did not expect that the taxi driver was a bad person...Believe me, I really didn't complain about you!"

She had always spoken calmly, and rarely spoke in such a hurry.

After Eddison listened for a while, he was relieved.

"Okay, got it!"

Then, a car stopped in front of them. The Gellert family's driver had arrived.

Eddison pulled Rachel's hand away and said, "Your driver is here to pick you up!"

Rachel felt disappointment at the sudden loss of his touch. However, she still waved at Eddison with a smile and said, "Thank you!"

Eddison shook his head, turned around, and strode away.

It was not until he heard the sound of the car door being closed behind him that he turned around and looked at the lights of the car, disappearing into the night.

At the Granger family.

Eudora looked anxiously at Amos, while he held a cup of water in his hand as he gently caressed Eudora's back.

"Don't worry, he's fine. He's just holding a grudge so he found a job outside!"

"Really?" Eudora's heart, which had been in her throat, finally calmed down a little.

"Of course it's true! Why would I lie to you? Hurry up and take your medicine. Then, I'll tell you what I know!"

Not even sparing the medicine a glance, Eudora continued to ask questions.

"What kind of job did he find? He has never had a serious job except for some volunteering work he did as a child!"

Amos said helplessly, "He's no longer a child! You have to believe in him! Eddison will not let himself suffer!"

Eudora sighed as she indeed did not want to worry at all.

However, as his mother, it was an instinct.

No matter how indifferent she acted in front of him, she still worried about him!

Amos finally compromised.

"Okay, you win! Sit down and I'll tell you everything! He's handing out leaflets now and he's working really hard!"

Then, he showed Eudora a photo.

When Eudora saw that Eddison was safe, she finally felt relieved.

"I didn't expect Sugar Bun to be able to make a living for himself!"

Her words were filled with joy.

When Amos saw how satisfied she was, he could not help but tease her, "You're happy just with that? You're so easily satisfied! He's only handing out leaflets!"

"What's wrong with handing out leaflets? As long as he's making money for himself, any job will do!"

"Alright! My dear wife, will you take your medicine now?"

Hearing that, Amos did not relax, instead hugging her even tighter as he said, "I really hope that I can meld you into my body. That way, we will be together forever!"

"Silly!" Eudora was slightly exasperated, "We are husband and wife! Aren't we already one?"

"Is that so?" Amos sighed. He also wished for it to be that way.

However, in reality, they were two independent individuals! One day, they would be separated.

However, when he saw her happily explaining things to him, he did not want to disappoint her, therefore he nodded his head.

"You're right! It's late now. I'll accompany you to rest!"

The next day, at the Gellert family's breakfast table.

The atmosphere became a little serious after Rachel spoke.

"Why are you asking me that?" Jarred was the first to speak.

Rachel pursed her lips and said, "It's nothing. I just have a friend who is looking for a job..."

"Is it Eddison?" Jarred asked curiously. After all, it was the first time that Rachel had asked him for a favor! He was really curious who it was for.

Rachel did not intend to hide matters from her father. After all, if Eddison really worked in the company, her father would definitely find out!

She nodded and said, "Yes, it's him! He studied law. Is there a vacancy in the law department of the company? Dad, please help me arrange one!"

"We're not hiring anymore!" Jarred was still angry about the fact that Eddison had not sent his daughter home. "How dare that annoying brat take away my daughter's heart just like that!"

"Dad, you're lying!" Rachel put down her cutlery and looked at Bianca, "Mom, please help me persuade Dad!"

Bianca shook her head, saying, "I can't persuade him!"

Bianca had always been a model housewife who strictly adhered to the rules and etiquette. She had never asked about Jarred's work and only took care of her own matters.

Her only job was to assist Jarred in daily matters and to take care of their child. She was taught to maintain marital bliss.

Rachel's spirit withered as she tried to convince Jarred again, "Dad, please, I beg you!"

Jarred said angrily, "Why are you begging me when you know nothing about why he's doing this? Do you really think that Eddison is working to support himself? I don't think things are that simple!"
