My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 192

"Madam, but if we don't inject her with sedatives, she will most likely hurt herself."

Eudora still couldn't make up her mind. Looking at Juju's condition, she was afraid that if she took the

sedatives, she might have to rely on it in the future as well. How could she allow it?

Juju was only five years old, and she still had a bright future ahead of her!

Thinking of this, Eudora hurriedly called her name. "Juju, Mommy is here. Be a good girl, please don't

make a fuss, alright?"

To her utter dismay, Juju shook her head and looked at Eudora blankly, familiar yet strange.

Outside the door, Amos had his wounds wrapped up. When he arrived at the door of the ward, he

heard noises coming from inside.

Stunned and anxious, he hurriedly went into the room. At a glance, he saw the room in a total mess,

and a group of people was surrounding Juju.

Amos frowned and shouted, "What are you all doing?"

Hearing this, Juju, who had been looking for something just now, quickly came back to her senses and

stared at Amos. The next second, she ran over and threw herself into Amos' arms.

Amos was shocked. He did not expect that Juju had been looking for him.

He was not the only one. Eudora was shocked as well. It didn't occur to her that Juju would be this

dependent on Amos.

However, the doctor next to them smiled. "If this is the case, my guess is the child must be looking for

her father since she felt overly terrified. This is a sign of a lack of security. Usually, as long as her father

is often around, she will slowly recover!"

"He's not the child's father," Eudora said.

The doctor was stunned, and then he grinned awkwardly. "Even if he is not the child's father, she

seems to trust him a lot. Is she raised by a single parent?"

Eudora glanced at Amos and nodded. "Yes!"

"Then I can see why. Children from a single-parent family tend to feel a little insecure. You wouldn't

normally see it daily. But after having gone through such a traumatic experience, the fear in her heart

got magnified."

"Then what should we do?" Eudora asked hurriedly, "Is there anything else we can try?"

The doctor was stunned for a moment and circled between Eudora and Amos. He thought, "These two

are blessed with good looks and look like a match made in heaven. However, it seems that the woman

is resisting the man."

He hesitated and said, "Maybe you could consider consulting a psychologist."

Eudora nodded. "Oh, alright. Thank you!"

When the doctor realized that things have calmed down and he had nothing further to do, he went out.

Eudora immediately went up to Juju. "Juju, Uncle is tired, please don't do this. Can you let Uncle rest

for a while?"

Probably because Amos was here, Juju's mood was much better. She was not as agitated as before,

so she wiggled out of Amos' arms as told.

Eudora breathed an instant sigh of relief. She thought that her daughter didn't recognize her or want

her anymore. Fortunately, she was still willing to get close to her Mommy.

She hurriedly held Juju in her arms, and the tension in Eudora's heart gradually calmed down.

"Juju, come on, let's lie on the bed for a while. Are you hungry? I can go and get some nice food for

you."

Juju didn't move but merely looked at Amos, which ignited a surge of warmth inside him. Although

Amos didn't know why Juju suddenly relied on him so much, he was really happy to be needed by the

little princess.

The next second, Juju ran back to Amos and held his hand. Amos was stunned. She pulled on his

hand and walked over to Eudora.

Eudora was helpless. Juju had been referring to Amos as her father for a long time. Was she taking

this opportunity to be their matchmaker?

However, looking at her smiling face who was shocked and traumatized hours ago, Eudora did not

have the heart to refuse her. She thought, "I'll just let her do whatever she wants for now."

"Then I'll go out and get some food for Juju. Could you please help me look after her for a moment?"

"Sure!" Amos nodded.

It was already a little late, so Eudora found a healthy restaurant close by. After ordering some takeout,

she came back quickly.

Juju and Amos were playing on the couch, however, Amos's expression was a little grim.

Eudora, however, didn't notice it. She hurried over and called Juju. "Mommy bought your favorite meat!

Come over and eat first."

After taking the food out, Eudora took a spoon and handed it to Juju. She was probably too hungry, so

Juju scooped herself a large portion and started to chew. However, in the next second, she was stung

by the hot contents of the food and covered her mouth with her hands.

"What's wrong?"

Juju only opened her mouth but did not make any sound. Amos' face looked even grimmer, and Eudora

realized it as well.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly hugged Juju and handed her a cup of water.

When Juju finished drinking, Eudora held her in her arms and asked in a soft voice, "Can you tell

Mommy what happened just now?"

Juju didn't say a word but just pointed at her tongue.

Eudora's breathing stopped, but she quickly smiled again. "Juju, is the food too hot? You can tell me."

Juju nodded, but didn't say anything. Now, Eudora was very sure that Juju couldn't talk anymore. Why

did Juju, who was so smart and witty, suddenly lost her ability to speak?

Eudora's eyes reddened, and she subconsciously grasped Juju by her shoulders. "Juju, can you say

Mommy? Say Mommy!"

Juju shook her head and pushed Eudora's hand away with her small hands.

Amos quickly pulled Eudora off Juju, "You're too harsh!"

Eudora was really afraid. How could Juju not speak? She was a smart kid. Other children would only

speak when they were seven or eight months old, but she began speaking before she even turned

seven months old.

For countless dark nights, it was because of Juju who had been beside her and calling her Mommy that

gave her the strength to live on.

Her nose twitched as hot tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Juju, please say something. If you don't talk, how would I know whether you still love Mommy or not?"

Amos' heart ached as he rushed out. "Doctor, doctor!"

Soon, the doctor returned to the ward.

Eudora hurried towards him and said, "Doctor, please. Could you please check why isn't my Juju able

to speak? She has always been smart. Why can't she talk?"

The doctor was stunned. "No way. We didn't find anything wrong with her vocal cords just now. How

can she not be able to speak?"

After that, he gave Juju a thorough examination again.

After the examination, he said, "There's really nothing wrong with her."

"Then why isn't Juju talking?"

The doctor frowned. "It should be the same reason as before. Having gone through such a traumatic

experience, it probably not only affected her temper, but it also affected her mood. Maybe she just

doesn't want to talk!"

"Doesn't want to talk? Does it mean she will never speak ever again her whole life?" This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"It depends on her. If she heals from her trauma, she will naturally start to speak again. On the contrary,

if she still struggles with her trauma, it might be hard for her to speak for the rest of her life. Maybe

you'd better consult a psychologist!"
