My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 565

Tina immediately got anxious.

"Eudora, we can't go there. Why don't we go to the swings?"

Eudora's curiosity was instantly aroused, and she was unwilling to back down.

"Just look at how nervous you are. Tell me, what's there to hide?" From Eudora's point of view, there were many shady businesses in the Holt family, so they must be hiding something there.

However, Tina quickly covered her mouth and hushed her, "Don't talk nonsense! Dad will be angry if he hears you!"

Eudora became even more confused. "But why?"

"Actually..." Tina looked troubled and she hesitated for a while. Then, she explained, "To be honest, I have never personally seen it, but I did hear people say that the house is filled with things and portraits of the woman Dad likes. Once, there was a new worker who did not know about this unspoken rule and accidentally entered the house. Dad was extremely angry at her. So, I think that we should just forget about it!"

The woman Tyler liked? Could it be her mother?

Eudora had always been unable to accept the fact that her mother had betrayed her father. She had also once thought about finding out the truth.

However, Gordon had disappeared before she could clarify her doubts. And judging from her current situation with Tyler, she really didn't want to ask him about it.

Therefore, if her mother's belongings were really kept in this room, perhaps Eudora should go in and have a look...

Eudora glanced at the panic-stricken Tina and then said, "I'll go in and have a look."

Tina was utterly dumbfounded. "Eudora, don't! Dad will get furious!"

"It doesn't matter!" Eudora ignored her warning. She was eager to piss Tyler off. It would be the best chance for him to chase her out. That way, she could be free and unrestrained like she was before. However, Tina was petrified.

Eudora let go of her hand and said, "You should go back first. I'll head over alone."

"Eudora!" Tina ran back to her side again and exclaimed, "What are you talking about? You are my older sister. How could you ask me to run away and leave you behind just like that?" Eudora had never expected that Tina would be looking out for her.

When she was with Kesha, Eudora was used to Kesha's way of risking other people's lives for her own interests. She thought that there would not be such a pure sisterhood in this world. Now, it seemed that she was wrong.

"But..." Eudora hesitated. "What if he blames you for this..."

"Don't worry. With you here, there's nothing to be afraid of!"

What an adorable sister. Eudora blinked and nodded. "Okay."

Tina then helped Eudora to keep watch. After that, Eudora opened the door and they both entered the small house.

This house looked inconspicuous from the outside, but upon entering, she realized how beautiful the interior was. It was adorned with simple and warm decorations. It did not look like a storage house but more like a living room where one would often live in.

Eudora stood in front of the dressing table and looked at the familiar items on it.

There were her mother's favorite wooden comb, a round makeup mirror, and some skincare products that she had seen her mother using when she was younger. Eudora thought that she would never see these things ever again, but she did not expect to come across them so many years after her mother's passing.

It felt like everything happened a lifetime ago...

On the other side, Tina exclaimed softly, "Wow, Eudora, look over here. There are so many clothes!"

Eudora looked over and saw the closet which Tina had opened. There was an entire set of exotic costumes of various colors.

As it had been ages, when Eudora looked at them at a single glance, she felt as though she had gone back in time.

These avant-garde clothes were all customized products of the same brand. From the looks of it, it seemed that they were meant to be customized for all four seasons.

The closet was full, and there was a cloakroom next to it where more clothes were hung neatly.

Even Tina, who had been pampered from a young age, was ecstatic when she saw such a large and luxurious room.

"Dad must have loved her very much. This is too sweet of him."

Eudora did not know what to say. She was shocked, but she still felt desolate after learning that her mother had cheated on her father and eventually gotten pregnant with her. All of a sudden, Tyler's stern roar could be heard coming from outside the door.

"Who's in there? Come out right now!"

Tina's hands trembled at once, and the clothes in her hands almost fell to the ground. Eudora pulled her back hurriedly and comforted her, "Don't be afraid!"

Then, Eudora closed the closet for her casually before speaking with a smile.

"It's alright. Just stay behind me."

Tina was still nervous and she said meekly. "Dad must be furious..."

"Do not be afraid!"

The man outside yelled once again, "You'd better come out this instant!"

"It's me!" Eudora responded before taking Tina's hand slowly and walking out together.

Standing outside the door, Tyler's expression softened slightly when he saw that it was Eudora.

However, the words that came out of his mouth next were still a little harsh.

"Who allowed you to enter this place? This is my private territory! Where are your manners?!"

Eudora was already upset, and her rage immediately escalated after hearing Tyler's words.

"I'm sorry that we weren't raised well. It was because my father was shameless enough to take someone else's woman as his own."

Immediately, a loud slap could be heard.

Tyler had slapped Eudora across the face, his face ashen.

Tina was so frightened that she too turned pale. Nevertheless, she quickly stood in front of Eudora and looked at Tyler with a trembling gaze.

"Dad, Eudora has nothing to do with this. It was my fault. I accidentally took her inside. You should be angry with me."

"Don't you think that I wouldn't dare!" Tyler gritted his teeth and seethed, "Hodge, take Miss Tina back to her room and lock her up. She is grounded from this moment onwards!"

"Dad..." Tina was stupefied. "Dad, you can't do this! Christopher is still waiting for me at the hospital..."

Eudora's jaw clenched and she uttered in disdain, "It seems that all you know is to force others to do what you like. What kind of man are you? I was the one who insisted on entering the room, and I dragged Tina in with me. Why are you putting the blame on her? Besides, I was not wrong!"

Tyler raised his hand again, about to teach Eudora another cold, hard lesson.

However, he withdrew his hand when he saw Eudora's clear and moving eyes.

He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and then said.

"Bring the two of them to the front yard. From now on, no one is allowed to come to the backyard without my permission."

Tyler then walked into the room quickly. The door was soon locked from inside.

Tina stood there in shock. She simply could not believe that Tyler would let the matter slide so easily. She did not come to her senses until Eudora took her hands.

"Eudora, does this mean that we are fine?"

"Yes," Eudora nodded. When they reached the front hall, Eudora did not head straight back to the living room. Instead, she led Tina to the door.

"You should leave while he's still in the backyard. Try not to come back in the future."

Tina shook her head. "But Eudora, you..."

"I'll be fine. You've already seen it yourself. He won't do anything to me. I am his daughter!"

Tina nodded reluctantly. Just as she was about to tell Eudora that she would get Amos to come and save her, Eudora spoke again.

"Don't tell Amos about what happened today."
