My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 1049

Only then did Naomi find out that Nelson had sent her a message in the morning when she was at the

hospital. She had overlooked it and forgot to reply to him.

She was a little embarrassed, and quickly apologized softly.

"Sorry, I forgot."

Nelson comforted her, "Silly girl, I don't want your apology. I was just afraid that something bad

happened to you since you weren't replying."

Naomi shook her head subconsciously and denied it, "I'm fine!"

"Really? Then let's go to sleep! Staying up late is not good for your health."

Naomi nodded. However, she couldn't help but bring up the court trial at the thought of attending it the

very next day.

"Actually, there's something going on."

Nelson was heard chuckling as he asked, "Is it about the court trial?"

Naomi asked in surprise, "How did you know it?"

"How could I not know? I know everything about you. Don't worry, it will be alright! I'll be there for

you tomorrow."

Naomi knew that it was her own business, and Nelson's presence there would probably not affect the

results of the trial in any way.

Nevertheless, she was still delighted when he said that he would be there for her.

A while later, she felt sleepy. Hence, she rubbed her eyes and said, "Good night then!"

"Okay, go to sleep!"

Naomi asked curiously, "Aren't you hanging up?"

"No! I want to wait until you fall asleep first."

It was a common thing between infatuated couples. Naomi used to hear it from Emma, who loved to

gossip about the foolish things she did with her boyfriend.

They would chat from night till dawn and fall asleep together.

At that time, Naomi was so flummoxed that she couldn't understand it at all.

Now that she had experienced it herself, she finally knew the feeling of being in love.

People could truly be madly in love.

Naomi placed her phone next to her pillow before closing her eyes and falling asleep in peace.

At the same time, Nelson still couldn't rest easy.

He was studying some information for the case the next day while listening to Naomi's subtle breathing

through the phone. It was a very heartwarming moment for him.

It was not until her breathing gradually became smooth and steady that he hung up.

Then, he dialed another phone number.

"Richard, have you made the necessary preparations as according to our previous plans?"

Richard answered, "Everything is ready. Monique found someone to act as a witness, but we have our

trump card too. I have contacted Monique's subordinate, who was fired a few days ago. He can testify

for us when the time comes." Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

"Well done!"

After a short pause, Nelson asked again.

"How's my mom doing?"

"I've hidden her in a safe place, and I'm sure Monique can't find her. Don't worry, I've also arranged for

someone to stay there and keep an eye on the surroundings. We will be notified of the situation from

time to time."

Nelson groaned, "Thank you for your hard work! Rest early, there will be a hard battle for us tomorrow."

Nelson had never been the type to not return a favour, especially after realizing how Monique used

him. He wasn't going down without a fight.

He would show no mercy this time!

Meanwhile, Eudora couldn't sleep either.

She was very worried. Although Amos tried to make the problem sound as minor as he could, she was

nonetheless still worried.

"How could you agree to let Naomi go alone? She's so guileless. What if something happens at the

scene?"

Amos shook his head and comforted her, "It'll be fine! Besides, children have to learn how to deal with

their own issues. Wasn't that something you said?"

Eudora still refused to comply, "Indeed, it was what I said before, but the situation is different now. She

was just injured a few days ago."

"Why don't you have any faith in our daughter?"

Eudora fell silent for a moment before saying, "It's not that I don't have faith in her. It's just that I can't

help worrying. I used to hate my parents for interfering in our lives back then. Now, I am beginning to

understand them. Furthermore, I have become just like my father. Even if I believe in her, I still can't

help feeling worried."

Amos reached out and pulled her into his arms, saying, "I understand your feelings. However, we

should let Naomi face it once and deal with it by herself. We can't accompany her for the rest of our

lives. In the end, she is going to have to live on her own. It's always better to practice and be prepared

than to be at a loss when the time comes."

Eudora finally agreed with him and sighed, "Okay, I get it."

"Great! Get some rest. If you don't want to be at home alone tomorrow, I'll stay with you."

Eudora pursed her lips and asked, "Aren't you going to the company tomorrow?"

"There's nothing particularly serious. It will be fine even if I don't go."

Eudora couldn't help rolling her eyes at him, "I've read everything on the news. Everyone's saying how

I'm seducing you and causing you to neglect your work in the company."

Amos retorted, "Who dares say something like that? It's my own fault for not managing the company

well. It has nothing to do with you."

"Forget it. I'd better do some gardening at home. You should head to the company, I'll have Cindy to

keep me company."

Even though Amos had told Eudora not to be worried, she still couldn't fall asleep. As a result, she got

up early in the morning to prepare breakfast for Naomi.

Thinking that there would be a tough battle for Naomi that day, she tried to prepare a nutritious

breakfast for her.

There were eggs, almond milk, bread, hash browns and pancakes. Eudora hoped that after getting a

full stomach, Naomi could deal with the problem well.

After she prepared everything, she went upstairs to wake Naomi.

Before she knocked on the door, Naomi came out in high spirits.

"Mom, good morning."

Eudora was taken aback and asked, "You're ready?"

"That's right! Do I look good?"

Naomi was wearing a white blouse, a black pencil skirt and a matching black blazer. She looked quite

charismatic and ready for a fight. Initially, Eudora thought that Naomi would be having butterflies in her

stomach before attending the court trial for the first time.

However, to her surprise, Naomi seemed extremely confident.

Eudora felt much more at ease in an instant.

"Since you're ready, let's go downstairs for breakfast. I've prepared a hearty breakfast for you. Make

sure you are full before you leave."

Naomi nodded and said, "Okay!" After following behind Eudora for some time, Naomi secretly turned

around and gestured a sign of assurance to Amos, who was hiding in the corridor.

At the dining room, Eudora kept adding food onto Naomi's plate.

"Eat some more, it's still early."

Naomi rubbed her round belly. When she saw Amos coming down, she felt as if her saviour had

arrived.

She took the opportunity to seek his help while her mother was busy serving the dishes.

"Dad, please deal with Mom. I've helped you put her at ease, so shouldn't you help me finish all the

food on the table?"

Amos nodded and said, "You can go. I'll handle it!"

"Thank you, Dad!" After that, she hurriedly stood up, grabbed her bag, and walked out. Just then, Amos

suddenly called out softly from behind her.

"Good luck!"

Naomi turned back and asked, "Dad, what did you say?"

Amos felt a little embarrassed. The men of the Granger family had never been good at expressing their

feelings.

"Nothing!"

Naomi beamed at him and laughed, "I heard it though. Thank you, Dad!"

It was not until she reached the door and was about to leave that she heard Amos telling Eudora, "She

just left, so I'll eat it."

"Seriously, she's full already, so don't worry!"

"You keep worrying about her. What about me?"

Naomi was speechless.

It was hilarious for Amos to actually be jealous of his own child.
