Juju didnât expect that Sugar Bun would fail to move Eudoraâs heart at such a critical moment! It seemed that he needed more training.
She then took out a photo of Eudora from her small bag and handed it to Sugar Bun.
âLook carefully. This is Mommy, do you understand?â
Sugar Ban scanned the photo with his doe eyes and reached out to take the photo.
Jujuâs face instantly lit up with joy. âSugar Bun, youâre really awesome! Look carefully, this isâ¦â
Sugar Bun had already stuffed the photo into his mouth before she could finish her words.
Juju was at a loss for words.
She pulled the picture back hurriedly and looked at her brother helplessly. âWhy are you so stupid?â
At this moment, Amos came in from the outside.
Amos wasnât in a very good mood after having lashed out at Eudora. He stood at the door and took a moment to calm himself down before walking in.
Juju wanted to put the photo away immediately after seeing him. However, it was too late, so she simply put the photo back into Sugar Bunâs little hands.
âItâs Sugar Bunâs!â
Sugar Bun, who had gotten scapegoated unknowingly, bared his toothless smile at Amos.
Amos went speechless.
He had heard that daughters would usually take after their fatherâs looks, and the sons would follow their motherâs. His two children were a perfect example, especially Sugar Bun. When he laughed, he looked exactly like Eudora.
His pure yet cunning eyes were like a small hook, clasping on to Amosâ heart tightly. The unfortunate thing was, Eudora had just shamelessly asked him not to tell anyone about the fact that they were still legally married.
He was angry, and he was eager to strangle the truth out of her.
However, the anger in him immediately dissipated after seeing the smile on Sugar Bunâs face.
Juju, who was next to him, was not as ignorant. After all, she was a little older than Sugar Bun. She thought that Amos had remained silent because he was furious.
She stretched her hand out and tugged on Amosâ sleeve. âDaddy, are you alright?â
Amosâ heart softened and he shook his head at Juju. âNothing. I just thought of some heartless woman.â
Juju was relieved. It seemed that her father had yet to move on from her mother.
âLetâs get Mommy back then!â Juju blurted out.
Amos was taken aback. He soon realized that his little daughter had seen through him. He felt a little embarrassed, especially when he remembered Eudoraâs words just now.
Donât tell anyoneâ¦
Amos became a little furious out of humiliation, and his face darkened slightly. âForget it, letâs not talk about it anymore! Are you two hungry? Iâll prepare something for you to eat!â
Juju nodded, sighing helplessly once Amosâ figure was a distance away. She reached out and poked Sugar Bun, who was busy biting his own hands.
âSugar Bun, donât you think that all boys are not honest? I hope that Mommy will come back soon. Otherwise, why would Daddy be so anxious when Mommy passed out? And why would he make some soup for her?â
Sugar Bun answered her by blowing bubbles to her with his toothless smile.
Juju nodded with satisfaction. âYou think so too, donât you? So now Daddy and Mommy are having an argument! In fact, they have quarreled before. But they made up because of me after that. Sugar Bun, donât you think that Iâm awesome?â
For a girl who was less than six years old, it looked funny seeing her direct a superior look to her little brother, who was only a few months old.
However, the person in question didnât seem to think so. She even discussed plan A with Sugar Bun seriously.
âOur original plan was to stand on Daddyâs side deliberately so that Mommy will become very pitiable, and Daddy will end up becoming soft-hearted. But now it seems that our plan didnât work very well. Therefore, I, the leader, have decided to start working on Plan B.â
She wanted to make herself sound like a leader, but at the end of the day, she was just a naive young child.
However, this did not affect her order.
âSugar Bun, did you hear me?â
After he was done biting his hands, Sugar Bun began to carry his feet and put them into his mouth with difficulty.
It probably tasted good, as he was addicted to biting his feet and could not extricate himself.
Juju was very dissatisfied. âSugar Bun! Iâll have to punish you if you refuse to listen to my orders again!â
Sugar Bun didnât listen to her at all. Juju pouted and passed the toy in her hand to him. âIâll spare you this time. But Iâll punish you accordingly if you do this again next time!â
Sugar Bun took the toy and finally let go of his poor feet.
Three seconds later, he began to insert the toys into his mouth again, while Juju was at the side, coming up with plan B.
â¦
Eudora returned home shortly after. She told Tyler that she had been delayed with some matters, which explained her sudden, albeit short disappearance. Fortunately, Tyler was preoccupied with the matter between her and Fabian, so he didnât think too much about it.
âFabian called just now to ask if youâre back. Has he already told you about the engagement?â
Tyler wasnât stupid, and Eudora knew she couldnât hide anything from him.
âYes, I do. My stance is still the same, I wonât get engaged!â
Tyler frowned, âWhy? Give me a reason.â
Eudora did not speak, so Tyler asked, âIs it because of Amos? I heard that he has moved Valiant Eastâs development plan for the next three years to Greene City! Whatâs wrong? Is he still unwilling to give up on you?â
Eudora was stunned. Did Amos arrange for Valiant Eastâs development plan to be moved to Greene City?
However, according to her knowledge of the real estate industry, Greene City had always been under the control of the Nolan family and the Holt Family! It would not benefit Valiant East at all if they were to enter the market in this climate.
Especially since it had not been long since the internal strife within Valiant East was resolved.
Seeing that she didnât speak, Tyler thought that he had guessed right. His face immediately darkened.
âI donât care what he thinks. No one can stop me. If he insists on being my enemy, then donât blame me for being uncourteous!â
Eudora came back to her senses and said hurriedly.
âNo, youâve misunderstood. I have nothing to do with him. Ask Fabian if you donât believe me!â
She bet that a man as confident as Fabian would refuse to show his weakness in front of anyone. Fortunately, she won the bet.
Tyler finally changed the topic and talked about the Nolan family again.
âSince you and Amos have made it clear that you guys no longer have anything to do with each other, then there is no reason for you to object to your engagement to the Nolan family!â
âYou promised me that you would not force me to be with anyone immediately!â
Tylerâs face was calm. âIâm not forcing you. I just wanted you two to get engaged so that it would be easier for you to get to know each other better. I didnât ask you to get married immediately, did I? Thatâs settled then!â
After that, Tyler put this matter aside.
Eudora couldnât refute, so she made up her mind to take things one step at a time.
However, it turned out that she was too naive!
