Chapter 1081
When Eason heard Eudora's words, a smile finally appeared on his face.
"Of course! That's a must!"
After Eason met with the heart specialist, he went up and down just to pick up the results. After a busy
morning, the specialist said that his heart condition was incredibly serious, so it was hard to be treated
completely!
However, his condition was stable. If he received proper treatment, his condition could get a bit better.
Although the results were not good, Eason considered it a desirable outcome.
After they left the hospital, Eason booked a table at a restaurant near the hospital, and the two of them
ate a meal.
After Amos came to work in the morning, he made a call back home.
He was mainly worried that Eudora was not feeling well. Then, Cindy said that she went out to walk the
dog.
Therefore, he no longer paid much attention.
At noon, he met with a foreign client.
The arrival of this particular client meant that Valiant East would be opening up a new market in the
Eastern Europe in the coming months!
Moreover, it was a last minute collaboration!
After talking for the whole morning, Clint booked a restaurant forthem.
The main reason for the reservation was that the client had mentioned before that he had eaten there
many years ago and missed the taste very much.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they entered the restaurant, they saw Eudora chatting happily with a man in
a booth.
Clint was stunned for a moment. When he turned back, he saw Amos's face becoming a little stiff. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
However, it was a very important moment. He immediately stopped Amos and asked him not to do
anything impulsive.
Fortunately, Amos had matured in recent years, therefore he was not as impulsive as he had been
when he was young.
After Amos took a meaningful look at Eudora, he went into the private room with the client.
Clint heaved a sigh of relief and immediately memorized the man's face. He would investigate
him later!
Of course, Eudora knew nothing about this matter.
After lunch, she went home alone!
In the afternoon, Clint sent the client away. Before Amos gave him the word, he gave Amos the result
of his investigation.
"Eason Quill and Mrs. Granger are university classmates. At that time, he was the school hunk.
Rumors said that he had also pursued Mrs. Granger once..."
Clint's voice became softer and softer. Upon mentioning that Eason used to pursue Eudora, he could
clearly feel the coldness emanating from Amos.
However, in the end, Amos stayed silent, only faintly humming in assent.
Clint grew even more worried upon seeing that Amos was not angry. He looked more terrifying than
usual!
In the evening, after dinner, Eudora wanted to find an excuse to go upstairs to take her medicine! Amos
had been observing her, and she had not been able to avoid him at all.
Truthfully, she was not trying to get his attention.
She saw from the news in the afternoon and knew that Amos had discussed a big project that day. The
contract had just been signed that day, which meant that the company would be busy with the project in
the following half a month.
Everyone from their industry knew about the working hours. Usually, things would be more carefree for
them but whenever a peak period arrives, they would be extremely busy.
Staying up late for a few days was common!
Therefore, she did not want Amos to know that she was sick at that moment.
When Amos asked her where she went in the afternoon, she said she had gone to walk the dog.
Amos paused for a moment upon hearing that. Then, he gave a simple reply.
Eudora was absent-minded so she could not tell that he was unhappy. After that, she said, "I'm going to
take a bath!"
Then, she went upstairs.
As soon as she went upstairs, she immediately took out her bag and looked for the medicine
prescribed by the doctor in the afternoon.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she unzipped her bag, the door was pushed open by Amos, who had also
come upstairs.
She quickly stuffed the medicine back into her bag and zipped it. However, she accidentally dropped a
business card.
Eudora wanted to pick it up, but it was already too late.
The business card floated to Amos's feet.
Amos looked at the name card, which had the name 'Eason Quill'.
His frown deepened.
He bent down to pick up the business card. Clenched his fist, he asked, "Who is this?"
"An old classmate!" Eudora replied. "When I met him by chance today, we exchanged business cards!"
"And you two even went for a meal together, right?" Amos's voice became deeper.
Eudora paused for a moment before saying, "H-how did you know?"
"I saw it! You two were chatting happily in the restaurant at noon today. Why did you lie to me?"
Truth be told, he hadn't believed the information that Clint had given to him in the afternoon.
They had been husband and wife for so many years, so of course, he believed her. That was why he
had come back to ask her.
However, she had chosen to lie to him!
If he had not seen the scene with his own eyes, he really would have thought that those documents
were fake.
It had been more than ten years, yet it was the first time that she had lied to him.
They were spotted at the restaurant? Eudora really did not think that she would be seen by Amos.
She sensed that she could no longer hide the matter from him, therefore she could only give him an
explanation.
"Actually, when I was walking the dog, I ran into him. I saw that he was in poor health, and I
remembered that Leon had a specialist friend, therefore I introduced him to the specialist. He was
grateful and invited me to a meal."
That explanation was not a complete lie.
However, Amos's expression still looked downcast.
"Are you still hiding something from me?"
"I'm not..." Eudora shook her head as she continued, "I..."
Before her voice died away, Amos reached out and grabbed Eudora's bag. He unzipped the bag and
took out the medicine bottle.
"What is this?"
This time, she really was caught in a blunder.
She mumbled incoherently, "This..."
"I..." Eudora wanted to speak but stopped on second thought. Then, she said, "I lied to you because I
knew that you would be worried about me!"
"Am I that unreliable in your heart?"
"No..." Eudora shook her head as she tried to explain, "I saw that you closed a big deal today."
"You just don't trust me," Amos's expression remained unchanged as he turned around and walked out.
Eudora wanted to go after him, but she felt a little uncomfortable after just taking half a step.
She went back again, picked up the bottle, and poured a few pills according to the doctor's instructions
into her hand.
They were all large, white pills.
Eudora felt her throat ache upon seeing their size.
She took the cup of water that she had prepared earlier, took a deep breath, and stuffed the pills into
her mouth.
Then, she gulped a few mouthfuls of water.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she stiffened her neck and tried to swallow them.
The next second, Amos's voice sounded from behind her.
"Are you an idiot?"
Eudora turned back with red eyes and saw that Amos was standing by the door with a glass of water.
His tone was angry, but his eyes were filled with worry.
"How can you take the pills with such little water? Don't you know how hard that will be on your throat?"
Eudora's nose twitched for some reason and she mumbled, "Hubby, I'm sorry."
