Both the father and son were very scheming. Therefore, Eudora could not help but wonder what Amos had promised his father when she saw that he was so rxed.


    Amos shook his head, “It’s okay. He has agreed to not make things difficult for you anymore. You and Juju will stay here in peace from now on.”


    Eudora got even more worried,“What about you? What will you do?”


    “I…” Amos paused and continued,“We may have to sleep in separate rooms but don’t worry, I will sneak over whenever you need me.”


    Eudora was speechless.


    Why was this guy still joking at times like this?


    “Who needs that?”N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.


    “I need it, okay?”


    Juju stared at Eudora before turning to Amos and asking in a sweet voice, “Mommy, Daddy, what do you need?”


    Eudora was shocked.


    She wanted nothing but to find a hole and bury herself inside.They were being a bad influence on their daughter.


    “Nothing!” Eudora exinedhurriedlywhileAmos smiled and said, “We are discussing whether Juju wants a brother or a sister!”


    “Juju likes brothers and sisters.”


    Eudora gritted her teeth, “Amos!”


    “Okay, Mommy is angrynow,” Amos said hurriedly, “There are still some things that I need to deal with at thepany. I’lle backter. You and Juju can y in the garden for the time being.”


    Eudora was still embarrassed after being teased by Amos.Thus, she simply nodded and watched him leave.


    Meanwhile, Juju had been bored in the house for several days. Therefore, she was very happy that the weather was great and she was able to y outside. She was so excited that she ran around the garden.


    The garden of the Granger family was specially managed by the gardeners and it blossomed all year round.


    Eudora and Juju strolled along the path that was blooming with flowers and they arrived at a small house.


    The door to the house was closed but they could smellsandalwooding from it from afar.


    Out of curiosity, Juju walked over.


    Juju was about to push the door open when someone from the inside opened it. Bethany looked at them in surprise,“Why are you here?”


    Eudora pulled Jujuhurriedlyback and apologized,“I’m sorry, we were just ying in the garden and we identally ended up here. I’m sorry to disturb you. We’ll leave right away.”


    Bethany shook her head,“It’s okay. I was just here to pray for Amos’ elder brother!”


    Amos’s elder brother? Eudora knew thathe died a few years ago, that was whyOld Master Granger brought Amos back from abroad.


    Bethany sighed,“In a blink of an eye, he had been gone for eight years and tomorrow will be his death anniversary. I don’t know if he has been reincarnated to a better life.”


    Bethany would wear a kind smile every day, so Eudorawas at a loss when she saw that she was upset.


    Eudora could onlyfort her casually, “He was a good man and he would most definitely live well.”


    Bethany nodded,“Yes, you’re right.”


    After that, she added, “Why don’t youe in and pray for him?”


    Eudora was taken aback,“This is not appropriate, isn’t it?”


    After all, she was not married to Amos, so her identity was neither here nor there.


    “Why not? How is it inappropriate? Juju is the child of the Granger family. Sooner orter, you will be part of the Granger family. Amos had note home over the past few years and he had never prayed for his brother. Juju could take his ce to pray for him.”


    With this, Bethany took a step back and pulled them in.


    In the end, Eudora did not praybut she let Juju do it. Juju did not understand what she was doing and she justcopied Bethany’s movements.She stood there in a daze after she was done, and she peered at everything in the room with her big eyes.


    The hut looked small from outside but it was apletely different world inside. There was a table used for praying at the front and there was a memorial tablet on it. Eudora nced at the table casually and noticed that it was made from expensive Narra wood.


    There were a lot of antiques next to the tableand they were ced orderly and there wasn’t a speck of dust on them.


    Bethany smiled, “These were Hank’s favorite. He was interested in antiques back thenand he did not have any interest inpany affairs. If only Amos came back earlier, that way, he didn’t have to learn the things that he disliked because of his father.”


    Bethany’s attitude surprised Eudora.


    She thought that Bethany would be threatened by Amos’ identity and be resentful of him.Shedid not expect Bethany to wish that Amos woulde home to rece Hank earlier instead.


    Bethany saw Eudora’s reaction and she replied smilingly, “Do you think that a mother like me is a little unambitious? But in truth, these are my real thoughts. In one’s life, no matter if we’re happy or sad,our time is inevitably limited. If that’s the case, why should we live our lives unhappily?”


    Eudora nodded in agreement,“Yes! You’re right.”


    At this moment, Kaylene’s voice came from outside. “Bethany, are you inside?”


    As she spoke, she had already stepped into the hut. She frowned when she saw Eudora, “Why are you here?”


    Bethany exined hurriedly, “Eudora brought Juju here to pray for Hank.Were you looking for me?”


    “I have something to tell you!”


    Bethany nodded and turned to Eudora,“Thank you foring to talk to me today. Have I said too much? You must be bored.”


    Eudora shook her head,“Not at all! It’s time for Juju to take a nap, soI’ll take her back first.”


    “Okay!” Bethany nodded and watched them leave. Then, she turned around to pick up a rag andslowly wiped the table, “Why were you looking for me?”


    Kaylene did not speak. She merely frowned at the direction where Eudora had left.


    “Bethany, why are you so close to Eudora?”


    Bethany still smiled kindly and replied as she wiped the table, “Is there anything wrong with that? She’s not badand Juju is very cute. I’m old andI like having people around.”


    “Bethany…” Kaylene gritted her teeth, “You are too kind. Do you really think that Eudora and Amos are really in love? If she really loved Amos,then why did she leave him back then?This time, she might have taken a fancy to Amos’ inheritance…”


    Bethany frowned,“Enough. I don’t think that child is such a person. Besides, your big brother is in charge of the inheritance and hehas better foresight than you. Don’t worry about it.”


    Kaylene still wanted to retortbut when she shut her mouthreluctantlywhen she noticed that Bethany had no intention to discuss the topic any further.


    She paused for a moment before telling Bethany the reason why she hade over.


    “It’s Hank’s death anniversary tomorrow. I’m here to discuss the arrangements with you.”


    Bethany’s finger paused and she sighed,“Let’s just forget about it this year! Your big brother is in poor health andAmos has just returned. Besides, the family is in a mess andI don’t want to do anything. Besides, Hank doesn’t like pretentious stuff. You could juste and visit him more often if you like.”


    Kaylene frowned,“How could we do that? After all, Hank was the eldest son in our family. Even if he is gone, he will forevere first in our hearts.”
