My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 588

As soon as Eudora asked, Juju was stunned.

"Mommy, are you talking about Uncle Nolan? He just went out to answer a call..."

Eudora's brow creased. "He was the one who brought me back here?"

Before Juju could answer her, Fabian had already come in.

"You're awake? How do you feel?"

"Were you the one who brought me back? From where?"

Fabian smiled, "At the entrance of the forest. Your leg is injured but fortunately, it's not serious!"

Eudora was stunned. Last night, when she was in a blur, a man's deep and magnetic voice flowed through her mind.

Was that just a dream of hers?

As they were speaking, someone came to ask Fabian for instructions, hence he left the room. Eudora looked at the trash can next to her and saw a dark blue tie inside it...

"That's..."

Juju saw that Eudora was entranced by it and explained, "Mommy, when Uncle Nolan brought you back, you already had this tie on your leg!"

It was not a dream!

It was really Amos. He took off his tie to bandage her wound the night before.

Mixed feelings welled up in Eudora's heart. So, Amos singing for her was not a dream at all. Even if she knew that this happened, such a thing might never happen again in the future. However, when she thought of how Amos had sung for her, she was already content...

"I'll rest for a while," Eudora then said.

Juju nodded. "Mommy, I'll be in the living room with Sugar Bun. Don't worry, I'll take good care of him, rest assured."

Eudora nodded. She could really trust her daughter to watch over Sugar Bun.

When Juju closed the door, Eudora got up and limped over, picking up the tie from the trash can.

Eudora rested in the hotel for the day. The next day would be Malcom's birthday celebration.

Previously, Malcom would always hold a grand ceremony back at home. However, many of his peers did not attend this year, as he was organizing the festivities away from home. However, some of Malcom's former subordinates had come.

After all, it was because of Malcom's birthday that Eudora had come. Naturally, she was one of the VIPS. When she arrived at the venue, she found out that the Nolan family had arranged for her to sit next to Fabian.

Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to guess what that meant.

Eudora was somewhat resistant. "I think I'd better sit over there..."

Malcom replied, "It's no trouble since we're close. We'll just be sitting together and chatting. Eudora, you don't have to be so reserved!"

A burly man with a beard standing next to Malcom said with a teasing smile, "Boss, this is the future daughter-in-law of the Nolan family, isn't it? That's good, you have a good eye!"

Another man in a suit immediately shouted, "What are you talking about? Nolan Group is a professional organization. Don't you dare speak so crudely!"

The bearded man snorted unwillingly, and Malcom immediately smiled and said, "Enough, today is my birthday. I'm very happy that you all could make it. Don't fuss over a small matter. You two are my right- hand men, and Fabian also needs your support in the future!"

After that, the two men finally calmed down and went back to their own seats.

Eudora also took the opportunity to excuse herself and bring her children outdoors.

Indoors, it was lively, while the outdoors was quiet. There was a swing in the courtyard, so Eudora took Sugar Bun and Juju there.

However, Juju, who was usually always happy, had seemed very down. Eudora carried Sugar Bun and reached out to hold Juju's hand. "What's wrong?"

Juju shook her head. "Nothing."

Eudora knew her daughter very well. If Juju said there was nothing, it meant that there must be something wrong.

"Didn't I tell you that you have to be honest? If

you lie, you'd be like Pinnochio and have a

very long nose!"

Juju frowned and touched her nose

subconsciously. She lowered her head

again after she was sure that Eudora was just

tricking her.

"So what? Mommy, you still won't be together with Daddy! I heard it just now. Those people have been talking about you and Uncle Nolan..." Eudora understood and pursed her lips at Juju.

Then, she said with a smile, "Juju, you don't have to take those things seriously!"

Juju felt quite doubtful. "Why can adults lie? Won't their long noses become long too?"

Ahem!

Eudora scratched her head, at a loss of how to explain the concept of white lies to a child.

After thinking for a while, she continued, "You'll understand when you grow up!"

Juju sighed. "Alright then!"

"Then, are you still angry with me? Let's go on the swing together."

Only then did Juju raise her head haughtily. "There's no need for that. You can go with Sugar Bun! I'll protect you."

Juju was already very similar to Amos, especially when she was being so proud.

Eudora looked at Juju's expression in a daze and did not come back to her senses for a while.

In the garden behind her, two unkempt men walked past side by side.

"Bah, what's with that Waldron Yeager? How dare he challenge Callum?! When Callum began serving the Old Master, that Waldron was still in his diapers! Now, he is oppressing Callum just because he's a bit more educated!"

"That's right! The Old Master didn't even say anything, yet Callum had to voice out."

"Since they look down on us, then we'll look down on them too. If we disagree with each other, then we will start a fight..."

"Don't talk nonsense! Mr. Nolan wants to focus on the development of his business for the moment. As for us, we might be eliminated sooner or later..."

The two of them walked away slowly as they spoke.

Inexplicably, Eudora thought of the suited man and the bearded man she saw at the banquet just now. Hearing them, Eudora roughly understood the situation.

In the past, the Nolans were similar to the Holts. Back then, Tyler had wanted to be together with Eudora's mother, so he left the mafia.

But the Nolan family was different. They had been living under the protection of the mafia. So, they could not get away from it.

But when it came to Fabian's time, he also knew the risk of such a path. Therefore, they were ready to clear their names and leave the underworld...

Those former henchmen were used to taking things by force, and naturally, were not very educated in other aspects. Therefore, the Nolan family shifted their attention towards those who were more capable. Waldron Yeager, the man in the suit, was the most valued subordinate at the moment.

While Eudora was pondering about these, Fabian came outdoors as well, and behind him was the bearded man, Callum. Fabian was talking to him as he walked.

Callum nodded his head hurriedly. "Don't worry, sir. I know what to do!"

When he saw Eudora, Fabian immediately said, "Then, you go back first! If anything happens, just get someone to inform me!"

Callum nodded and immediately looked at Eudora with a smile.

"You must be Miss George, I've heard a lot about you! Nice to meet you!"
