Chapter 1043: Chapter 1043 You Are My One and Only

A week later, Naomi was discharged from the hospital.

While she changed her clothes, Eudora helped Naomi to pack her things.

“Your dad won’t be coming to pick you up today. My guess is that someone must be coming to pick you up!”

Naomi pursed her lips, “Mom…”

“All right, don’t be shy! I won’t bother you anymore. I plan to go shopping with your dad later! We’ll be back in the evening.”

After that, she placed Naomi’s belongings on the table and announced.

“I’m leaving!”

Naomi looked at Eudora suspiciously, but she did not react until Eudora was at the door.

“Mom… What do you mean?”

Eudora turned around and blinked at her. Naomi’s face lit up with joy.

“Have you and dad both agree to me officially being with Nelson?”

Eudora’s expression was mysterious as she shrugged, “Hey, I didn’t say anything!”

“You’ve said it, you did! Thank you, Mom!”

“Why thank me? I did not do anything!”

“I need to thank Dad too! I love both of you!”

Eudora sighed and teased, “Are you suggesting that if we didn’t agree to the two of you being together, you wouldn’t love me?”

“Of course not! Even if you didn’t agree, I will still love you. But now, I love you even more!”

Eudora raised an eyebrow at Naomi before saying, “Okay, enough with your sweet talk. You’re even better at it than me!”

While they talked, someone came in from the door.

Nelson had overheard the conversation between the two and was pleasantly surprised.

“Mrs. Granger, this…”

Eudora smiled as she glanced at him before asking, “You’re still calling me Mrs. Granger?”

“Oh, Auntie.”

“I’ll accept that! Naomi has just been discharged from the hospital, so I’ll leave her in your care. I’m leaving!”

With that, Eudora left.

Only Naomi and Nelson were left in the room. The two of them smiled happily like fools.

It was not until Nelson held her in his arms that she put her fingers into her mouth and bit down on them.

“Ow! Well, this is not a dream!”

Nelson held her fingers and said tenderly, “You silly girl! There’s bite marks on your finger now!”

“It’s fine, seriously. Nelson, it’s true! We really can be together!”

“Yeah, it’s true!” Nelson smiled. He gazed right into her eyes that were full of hope and anticipation. They gleamed brightly, and were his ray of sunshine.

“We’ll definitely be happy together!”

“Okay!” Naomi beamed.

…

Downstairs, Amos had been waiting for Eudora for quite some time.

When he saw her come out, he looked pretty annoyed.

“Did that brat come to take care of Naomi?”

Eudora smirked suggestively and asked, “Didn’t you see everything from here? Why are you still asking me then?”

Amos scoffed and rolled his eyes, “What did I see? I did not see anything!”

It was rare for him to act so childishly, so Eudora could not help but snicker.

“Now that I’m looking at you, do you want to know what vibe you’re giving off?”

“What?” Amos was curious to know.

“On the internet, it is said that all fathers-in-law look at their son-in-laws as if they’re good-for-nothings!”

“What do you mean?” The serious Amos once again had no idea what Eudora was saying!

“In other words… they’re just angry at how their precious daughters have been snatched away so easily!”

Amos was speechless.

When he saw Eudora’s happy smile, he could not help but reach out and pull her into his arms.

“Why do I feel like you’re secretly insulting me? Did your father think of me like that before?”

Eudora was momentarily shocked before suggesting, “That’s hard to say! It might be true! No matter how good the good son-in-law is, the father-in-law will always try to find fault with them.”

Amos was surprised to hear that.

He lowered his head until their noses touched and sighed, “Well, you’re the only one for me!”

…

The two of them wanted to have some fun together after agreeing to Naomi’s relationship with Nelson.

Therefore, they did not return home for the entire afternoon.

Eudora had worn high heels for the whole day. When she returned home, her heels were extremely red and sore.

Amos bent down and stood in front of her, gesturing as he said, “Come on, I’ll carry you.”

Eudora quickly looked around and frowned, “We’re already so old. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if others were to see us?”

Amos frowned as he replied, “Nonsense! To me, you’re the same as before. Besides, don’t you need someone to carry you as you age?”

After that, he squatted down again.

Eudora hesitated for a moment before she climbed onto his back.

Amos muttered to himself as he took two steps forward.

“Did you lose weight? It seems that you are much lighter now.”

Eudora was speechless as she groaned, “When was the last time you carried me? Do you really still remember it?”

“Of course I do!” Amos said solemnly, “I remember everything about you!”

Eudora suddenly felt a little emotional as she asked gently, “Then do you still remember where we were the last time you carried me?”

“In Greene City! You went for a vacation in the mountains!”

At that time, she had a quarrel with Amos. Then, her father arranged for her to live in the mountains. Amos quickly followed after her.

That night, she got lost in the mountains. She remembered that he had gone out to search for her and piggyback her home.

When she thought about it, she suddenly felt a little heartbroken.

“I’m sorry, Hubby.”

Amos’s back stiffened before he asked, “Why are you apologizing?”

“It’s just that I suddenly recalled our past, and I feel slightly sorry for everything that happened to you. You must have felt very wronged!”

Amos only smiled, “I’m a tough man. Why would I feel wronged? However, I do feel a bit wronged!”

Oh, he was slick!

Eudora reached out and hugged his neck from behind, chiming, “All right, let’s go home now. I’ll make something you like! What would you like to eat?”

Amos immediately cheered up as he laughed, “I like everything that you make!”

“Okay then! Let’s go home!”

…

It was the first time for Nelson to visit the Granger family as a welcomed guest. As a matter of fact, it felt slightly strange.

It was getting dark. Although he was reluctant to leave, he still proposed to leave several times.

That was because Naomi kept distracting him with the discussion of their marriage preparations.

Cindy could not help but tease them when she saw the two of them bantering with each other.

“Speaking of affection, you two are really ranked second!”

Nelson was curious and asked, “Who’s first place?”

Cindy snickered, “Who else do you think it could be? The Granger family members are really filled with affection!”

Nelson still didn’t get the joke and asked again, “Are you referring to Mr. Granger?”

After all, it was said that Amos spoiled his wife and doted on her a lot.

However, Nelson had only witnessed Amos defending Eudora in front of the reporters once. After that, he had never seen anything like that ever since.

He thought that something like that was already the best thing a man like Amos could do for his wife.

Maybe Amos treated Eudora like any normal couple? Though, Nelson couldn’t deny that it felt slightly weird…

“You don’t believe me?” Cindy laughed.

“Well, it’s understandable. Many people were shocked when they saw the way Mr. Granger interacted with his wife!”

That successfully piqued Nelson’s interest. Were things really that exaggerated for Amos and Eudora?

Suddenly, a smile appeared on Cindy’s lips.

“They’re back!”

Nelson hurriedly followed Cindy’s line of sight.

The very next second, he felt as though his jaw was going to drop to the ground.

Was… Was that actually the Amos Granger he knew?
