My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 873
He attempted to get up again after that. However, Thea was already walking towards him with Cutie Pie in her arms.
"Are you silly? Why didn't you say that your legs were numb?"
Harley shook his head and shrugged, "I didn't say it because I wanted to hold you in my arms for as long as I possibly can!"
Cutie Pie looked at Harley, then at Thea. He giggled happily.
Harley noticed that Thea's mood seemed to be better. Thus, he took advantage of the situation.
"Thea, let's not get divorced, okay?"
Thea rolled her eyes at him and pouted, "What nonsense are you talking about in front of the child?"
Harley covered his mouth and shot a look at Cutie Pie.
Thea soon agreed, "I promise you. But I still have to find him! I will not give up on Cutie Pie!"
Harley nodded and said, "Okay! I'll accompany you! We can just conceive artificially... It's just another child. I'll be able to take care of them!"
Thea immediately felt guilty again and refused, "No, I can't let you raise another child. It's unfair for you... I..."
"What do you mean by unfair? If this is your child, then it's my child too!"
After that, Harley reached out and pulled Thea into his arms.
"Both of you are precious to me!"
Cutie Pie beamed, "Dad, it's embarrassing..."
When Amos returned home the night before, Eudora had already fallen asleep. Therefore, when she woke up the next morning, she wanted to know what had happened the night before. "What happened to Harley? Did he get drunk in the middle of the night? What happened later? How did you deal with him?"
As she spoke, she grabbed a piece of pancake right from the stove and popped it into her mouth.
"Ow, hot, that's so hot!"
Amos walked over helplessly and took away the pancake. He wiped her hands with a towel before passing her a plate. "Put it here so it can cool down before eating it."
Cindy, who was standing aside, was amazed. Amos had transformed into the ideal househusband!
However, Eudora didn't look surprised at all. This meant that she was already used to being taken care of by Amos. Cindy was envious!
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, Amos spoke again.
"They're the only ones who can solve this. I sent him to the hospital and came back!"
Eudora immediately widened her eyes and gasped, "Aren't you afraid that they'll fight in the middle of the night?"
"It's impossible!" Amos laughed, "Harley was already dead drunk. Even if they got into a fight, he would be the loser for sure. It'll be fine, don't worry! He has tough bones!" Eudora nodded and laughed, "That's true."
After they finished speaking, she had already finished eating a piece of pancake. She had a satisfied look on her face as she smacked her lips in delight, "It's delicious!" Amos took another piece for her and offered, "Have another one!"
Eudora shook her head, "No, I don't want to eat anymore! I've gained quite a few pounds recently. I'm going on a diet!"
Amos frowned, "No, you're not plump. Who said so?"
Eudora pinched the flesh on her cheeks and complained, "Just look! My face has gotten much plumper! No, stop tempting me. Otherwise, I'll ignore you!"
Amos chose to stay silent. He quickly called Cindy since she was outside.
"Have some. There're extras!"
After all, Amos learned to cook from Uriah Fisher. The pancakes he made were delicious. Cindy had been waiting for this moment. Now that he was asking her to try it, she was delighted.
She marched up and grabbed a piece of pancake. She thanked him loudly.
Just when she was about to head off, Amos suddenly asked her, "Cindy, what's your weight?"
Cindy was stunned. It was unpleasant to ask a woman about her weight. However, there was nothing she could do. This was Amos Granger she was talking about. He even made something for her to eat, so she had no choice but to answer him.
She said frankly, "I'm 52 kilograms!"
Amos nodded and said, "Okay, you can leave now!"
With that, Cindy walked away happily. As she left, she grabbed another piece of pancake and popped it into her mouth.
"It's so..." Before she could finish her sentence, she heard Amos talking to Eudora.
"Look at Cindy, she doesn't look fat at all!"
Cindy was stunned. Was Amos praising her? Wasn't it inappropriate to do so? However, all women enjoyed being praised.
Cindy could not help but stare at her own figure. She was rejoicing when she heard Amos' voice again.
"You're only 45 kilograms. You're much thinner than her. It's fine. You can eat more!"
Eudora thought about it for a moment and finally agreed, "Alright, I'll eat a few more pieces!"
Cindy was utterly flabbergasted.
The pancake in her mouth didn't taste as good as it was a while ago. How could President Granger do this to her? Even if he wanted to make his wife eat more, he didn't have to use her like this.
She sniffled.
As she was lost in thought, Harley barged in.
"Amos? Eudora?"
When Cindy was about to speak, Harley noticed the pancake in her hand.
"It looks good, but don't eat too much, or you'll get fat!"
With that, Cindy exploded with anger.
"I'm not fat! You're the one who's fat!"
She ignored Harley and stormed out. She was determined to give the whole plate of pancakes to Charlie so he could fatten himself up in her place.
Meanwhile, Harley didn't understand why he was being ignored.
Fortunately, he followed the aroma and found Amos and Eudora in the kitchen. They were just about to head out.
Harley picked up a piece of pancake and put it in his mouth.
Then, he said, "Amos, thank you for last night!"
Amos knew that Harley was fine from his expression. Hence, he just nodded silently and didn't say a word. However, Eudora was curious and asked, "Thea is not angry anymore? That's great. I'll visit her later!"
Harley nodded and grinned, "Okay! However,
Amos, I have something to ask of you!"
Before he could finish his words, Amos had already spoken.
"I've already asked Charlie to look for the person you're looking for. If everything goes according to plan, there will be news from Charlie in a while!"
Harley was stunned.
"As expected from my brother, you're amazing! I can't believe you thought of this as well!"
In fact, this was easy to predict! Amos knew Harley well enough to know what he was thinking about.
Amos had always been in charge of people. It was easy for him to tell.
Harley ate another piece of pancake and soon realized that the plate was empty. Hence, he set his sights on the one in front of Eudora.
"Eudora, shouldn't you lose weight? This pancake, I..."
Eudora's finger paused in midair as she gasped, "Do I really look fat?"
"Of course..." Before he could finish his sentence, Harley felt an intense gaze staring at him.
Thus, he instantly realized what was happening and quickly changed his statement.
"Of course not! Eudora, you're just right. In fact, you look even better than those supermodels. What I mean is, you should eat more. You should gain some weight!"
Only then did Eudora felt at ease and she grabbed another pancake. She agreed smugly, "I think you're right!"
Harley wanted to cry. Why was it so hard to eat a piece of pancake?
There was nothing he could do in front of Amos. Although he had put in a good word for Eudora, he still didn't get to eat more!
