My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 831
When they had come here, Eudora and Elaine drove separately.
When they were leaving, before Eudora got in the car, she saw that Elaine was already waiting for her in her car.
Eudora looked at her curiously, "What's wrong? Do you have something else to tell me?"
Elaine laughed and said, "What's wrong? Can't I leave with you even if I have nothing to do? After this collaboration, I don't know when I'll be able see you again. Can't I go back to the city with you?" She had already said so much, how could Eudora refuse her request?
As such, she asked Clint and the others to sit in another car. She sat in the back with Elaine while Sawyer drove the car.
At first, Elaine only talked about the things that happened during this trip. Elaine was so touched that she sponsored a few children herself too!
Eudora followed the flow of the conversation. When it was about time, Elaine smiled and changed the topic to talk about Eudora instead.
She asked, "Can I call you Eudora? It feels weird calling you Miss George!"
Eudora nodded, "Sure, that's fine!"
Elaine nodded with great satisfaction.
"Eudora, you know, I really envy you! You're excellent and many people adore you! However, I'm not jealous of that fact. All I want to say is that some people belong in the past. Perhaps we should all look forward and cherish the people around us."
Eudora frowned. For some reason, she subconsciously glanced in Sawyer's direction.
She felt that Elaine's words were hinting at something.
Elaine noticed her actions and added, "When you went to see Katie, I went to visit another family. That family's situation wasn't much better than Katie's. The mother had gone mad and the father had already been long gone.
As soon as Eudora heard that, she couldn't help but feel sad.
She asked, "What's the reason for that? Did the mother go crazy after her husband died?"
"No!" Elaine shook her head and said, "The father dying was only one reason. The husband's younger brother had taken care of them for many years. For them, he even gave up the opportunity to go to college.
"However, the wife could not forget her husband and was unwilling to accept his death. Rumors about the wife and her brother-in-law started spreading in the village. In the end, she found someone for the brother-inlaw and they were supposed to get married. Unexpectedly, on the day of the wedding, the brother-in-law was met with a landslide and died. The mother had gone mad since then!"
As Elaine told the story, she relayed it in a touching and lively manner.
Eudora was slightly shocked and was unable to speak for a moment.
Elaine continued, "In fact, I've always thought that the brother-in-law himself wanted to leave! It was really obvious that he had feelings for her. If she could look past the obstacles back then, wouldn't it be great if they had gotten together? If they did, then they wouldn't have ended up like this."
After that, she patted Eudora's back, "I'm a little sleepy, so I'll take a nap. Please wake me up when we reach the rest stop in front." Eudora nodded and stayed silent.
In the rearview mirror, Sawyer was still driving calmly. Eudora glanced at him and quickly looked away.
Let go of the past? Find a new life?
Eudora felt that the woman did not necessarily regret her actions. She might have just felt guilty since he had died because of her.
In that woman's heart, she still loved her husband, just like how she still loved Amos!
It would be impossible for anyone to ever replace Amos!
After thinking about that, she said to Sawyer.
She requested, "Let's take a break at the next rest stop!"
Sawyer's eyes darkened and he gradually tightened his grip on the steering wheel. After a long while, he responded, "Alright."
At the rest stop, when they arrived, Eudora got off first.
Sawyer walked to the back and opened the door to wake up Elaine.
"We're here!"
Elaine was stunned for a moment. When she saw that she was the only one left in the car, she looked at Sawyer with a smile.
"I've never done such a thing in my entire life.
I've always believed in fighting for whatever you want. This is the first time I've let go of the person I like to someone else, so don't let me down! I know that you don't dare to confess to Miss George, so I've opened a path for you!"
The corners of Sawyer's lips twitched, unclear whether he was happy or sad.
"You really don't understand her!"
Elaine was confused and wanted to ask more questions, but before she could, Sawyer had already turned and left.
When Sawyer walked towards the cafe, he saw Eudora sitting there and eating a piece of cake.
It was just a small piece. After taking a bite, she closed her eyes in satisfaction and placed down the fork.
Seeing that Sawyer had come over, she pointed at the seat across her.
"Have a seat!"
Sawyer sat down as usual and turned his head to look out of the window.
The snow had melted in recent days. In the city, one could never see yellow leaves on the trees. Here, the leaves were still green even after the heavy snow.
In the end, it was Eudora who spoke first. She pushed the other piece of cake in front of Sawyer.
"Have a taste!"
Sawyer shook his head, "I don't like desserts."
"It's very delicious. Try it!"
She was really enthusiastic, so Sawyer could only pick up a spoon and put one bite into his mouth. "Oh, it's sweet."
"Right!" Eudora smiled brightly, "When I was pregnant, my husband bought me cakes every day!" Sawyer's fingers paused.
However, Eudora kept going on and on, "He's the same as you. He doesn't like to eat sweet things too. Oh, no, strictly speaking, he has more things that he dislikes than you do. He looked cold and was also a bit unreasonable. However, people didn't know that there was actually a burning passion in his heart, a fire full of emotions.
"Because of that fire within him, even after he got hurt, he still loved the world and his life."
Sawyer's heart thumped. He did not know that she viewed him that way.
He clenched his fingers
He asked in a low voice, "Is he really that good?"
"Of course!" Eudora suddenly raised her voice. She looked at Sawyer with some dissatisfaction.
"Amos really is that good of a person! Even his shortcomings are merits in my heart!"
"What about yourself?" Sawyer asked in a low voice.
"Me? I'm doing good, aren't I? Now I have Valiant East that he left behind for me, I also have two children..."
"No. I'm not talking about that," said Sawyer. "You can't live under his shadow for the rest of your life. You should start a new life. Your new life will have nothing to do with him or me! You deserve better!" Eudora pursed her lips, "In my heart, he is the best!"
