My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 93

The servant didn't dare to say anything further. She let Wendy Liam stay in the room alone.

The next day, Wendy was lying on the bed with her eyes open when the servant entered her room. She

hadn't slept all night.

The servant brought some food to her and persuaded her to eat.

"Miss Liam, please eat something!"

"I don't want to eat!" Wendy stood up abruptly and poured the food directly onto the servant.

The soup was boiling hot, and the servant was wearing thin clothes since it wasn't cold that day.

The servant screamed and burst into tears of pain.

Wendy suddenly realized that she had gotten herself into big trouble. She got up and grabbed the

servant's hand in a haste. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I'll take you to the hospital now."

The servant however kept quiet. She felt very aggrieved.

She took care of Wendy carefully every day, and never expected for herself to be tortured in this way.

However, Wendy was worried about her. After sending her to the hospital, she stayed beside her all the

time.

"You don't have to do the chores anymore. Just take care of your body. Also, I'll give you the medicine

in my room, it'll help with the healing of the scar. You must get well soon!" Wendy said.

The servant was still a little unhappy, "Miss Liam, I know I'm just a servant. I wouldn't care if you were

to throw a pillow at me when you're having a bad mood. But, you just poured hot soup on me! I really

can't tolerate this. You poured it on my hand just now. What about next time? Would you pour it on my

face? I don't want my face to be ruined! I'm going to tell Mr. Granger that I quitting!"

"Please don't do that!" Wendy begged, "I've been here for so long. But, the only person I know here is

you. What should I do if you abandoned me?"

Wendy had always looked like a weak woman. Moreover, she was ill, making her to look somewhat

pitiable. Thinking about this, the servant's heart softened.

"What if you do this to me again in the future?" The servant asked.

Wendy shook her head and promised, "I didn't mean it this time. I will never repeat my mistake again.

I'm willing to accept any punishment if I were to go against my promise. Please don't tell Amos about

this, he'd definitely dislike me if he got to know about this. I don't want to go back to the States..."

The servant nodded her head after hearing her make such a sincere promise.

"Alright then, I won't tell anyone about this." She said.

"Thank you." Wendy said.

After that, Wendy helped the servant to pay for her treatment, then went back home with her.

Three days later, the design competition was held as planned.

Eudora needed to put on makeup and arrive earlier for the rehearsal. Therefore, she went to the TV

station early in the morning.

The rehearsal in the morning was quite smooth. She had a lunch box in the studio, and began to do her

make up after that.

Her mobile phone suddenly rang.

She picked it up to see that it was a call from Christopher Gellert. Christopher was standing with all the

staff from the company outside the studio.

Everyone was holding a supportive signboard in their hands, like those they had in celebrity concerts.

Eudora couldn't help but laugh, and gave a quick reply,

"President Gellert, is this really necessary?"

'Of course it is! All the best to you later. We believe that you would win and glorify the name of

Everpeace!"

"You bet I would!" Eudora smiled and glanced at Amos' empty seat. She sent a message to him: "Don't

forget that it starts at three o'clock. I'll beat you up if you're late."

"I won't. Don't worry, my dear wife." He replied. Eudora smiled as she typed, "What a sweet-talker."

After putting on makeup, Eudora went through the last round of rehearsal. It was finally three o'clock in

the afternoon.

After finishing his work in a hurry, Amos stood up and rushed to the studio.

His screen was still fixed on the text message Eudora had sent him a while ago. The more he looked at

it, the more his smile broadened.

All of a sudden, his mobile phone rang when they were stopping at the traffic lights. He saw that it was

Wendy who was calling him. However, it was already 2:50 p.m.. Therefore, he didn't answer the phone

call.

After a short while, Amos' phone again. It was Clint.

"Bad news!" Clint said.

"What's going on?" Amos asked.

"Miss Liam is in a coma. The servant said that she hasn't been eating and drinking for the past three

days. She didn't allow the servant to tell us..."

Things had gotten serious! Amos frowned as he took another glance at the studio that was right in front

of him.

He eventually turned the car around. "Please ask the doctor to go there now. I'll be there very soon."

Meanwhile, Eudora was standing backstage.

She got extremely nervous when she heard the audience entering the studio.

However, she managed to calm herself down when she thought about seeing Amos soon. Amos' seat

was right in front of the stage. He said that he wanted to cheer for her.

The host had began his speech while Eudora was still thinking about Amos. The broadcast had

officially started.

The participants began to move forward, and Eudora went out with them too.

Eudora looked at Amos' seat as soon as she got out from the back. However, Amos was nowhere to be

seen. All the seats were filled, except for his.

Eudora began to feel nervous for no reason. But all of a sudden, she heard Christopher and her

colleagues cheering her name, "Eudora! Eudora!"

Eudora took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She put away the disappointment in her heart,

and straightened her back in confidence.

Perhaps Amos was just late.

Everything went smoothly, and Eudora managed to enter the final round of the competition.

Her colleagues gathered around her to congratulate her, "Eudora, you were really awesome."

"That's right, we all knew that you would make it into the final round! I could tell that you were a

talented person the moment I first saw you at the company."

Another colleague made a fuss, "You're exaggerating!" Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Amid their laughter, Eudora smiled. However, her gaze never left his empty seat. Someone noticed and

asked, "What are you looking at?" Eudora shook her head and said, "Nothing. I'm so happy today, how

about my treat for dinner?"

It was rare for Eudora to take the initiative to treat her colleagues to dinner. Therefore, everyone agreed

with her.

"Sure! Let's sing karaoke after dinner!"

"Alright!"

Christopher noticed something wrong with her, "Why do you want to drink all of a sudden? Are you in a

bad mood?"

Eudora smiled and said, "Do I look like I'm in a bad mood? I'm on cloud nine! I've made it to the finals,

plus did you hear what the judge said? He praised that my design was the best design he had ever

seen. He's even an experienced designer himself! Why would I not be happy after hearing all these?"

Exactly, there was no reason for her to be unhappy. She was one step closer to her dreams. However,

somewhere deep within, an emptiness lies, and it was upsetting her.

Christopher could obviously tell that she was lying.

He had no choice but to talk about something else, "Alright, since you said so, we'll have to get drunk

tonight since we are all so happy!"

Eudora nodded her head and said, "Of course, you can't go back unless you're drunk!"
