My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 942

Naomi subconsciously stepped back. She shook her head and tried to play it cool, "I'm fine!"

In the next instant, Nelson had already pulled her back. His actions were fast, causing her to grimace in

pain.

Nelson frowned and asked, "You got punished?"

Naomi wanted to shake her head again.

However, Nelson asked her once more, "Does it hurt?"

Naomi's heart skipped a beat as she met his tender eyes.

She shook her head again and replied, "No, it doesn't hurt..."

In the next second, Nelson gave her a pinch on her leg. Consequently, she couldn't help but wince.

"Do you still want to put on a brave face?"

Naomi said, "It really doesn't hurt. If you don't believe me, try pinching me again. I wasn't prepared just

now!"

Nelson retorted with a smirk on his face, "It seems that you're craving for my pinches, huh?"

Naomi was flustered by his teasing and an awkward moment passed in the ward.

A while later, Nelson coughed to break the silence. He said, "Sit down, I've already called the nurse.

She'll give you some medicine later."

As they were talking, the nurse had already come in from the outside.

Naomi still wanted to decline the nurse's help and insisted, "I'm fine. There's really no need..."

"Then, I'll do it instead," Nelson said abruptly, making Naomi feel embarrassed.

The nurse next to them instantly blushed. In the end, Naomi followed the nurse to another room inside

in confusion.

As soon as her legs were exposed, the nurse gasped in surprise.

"Miss George, why are there so many scars?"

Naomi whispered, "Hush! Keep your voice low! These are all old wounds. There's nothing serious."

"This bruise is new though, isn't it?"

"Cut it off!" Naomi said.

Nelson smirked from the outside and after a while, the nurse finished her job and went out.

Naomi said bashfully, "Thank you. I feel so much better!"

Nelson asked again, "Was it your father who punished you?"

Naomi replied while shaking her head, "Errr, Dad has always been very kind to me! It's just that since

I've done something wrong..."

Nelson suddenly dropped a bombshell, "Let's break up!"

Naomi just gazed at him slack- jawed, merely uttering a single word, "What?"

"Fortunately, we've only known each other for a few days. We're not very close to each other, hence it

would be easier for us to break up now!"

Naomi finally came to her senses as she felt a twinge of sadness, her nose twitching.

However, she had always been a resilient girl, therefore it was not long before she regained her

composure.

"Why? Is it because of my father?"

Not giving her a valid reason, he replied, "You can take it like that!"

Naomi nodded in distrait as she said, "Oh, okay!"

She turned around and walked out.

However, after taking two steps, she couldn't help but turn back and ask, "What if I said that I could

deal with the matter with my father?"

This time, Nelson stayed quiet. As such, Naomi failed to get the answer she wanted and after a long

time, she chuckled.

"Okay, I got it!"

In the hotel, Eudora was packing up her belongings as they would be going back home soon.

Naomi had grown up and had her own ideas already. Thus, Eudora thought that it would be better for

her to make her own choices.

It took a lot of persuasion from her to convince Amos. Only after he had agreed with her did Eudora

finally feel at ease.

As she was busy packing up her things, the door was pushed open from the outside and Naomi walked

in.

"Mom, I'm back."

Eudora was a little curious and asked, "You're back already?"

"Yup! Yes!" Naomi took two steps, and her eyes fell on Eudora's luggage. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

She seemed distracted for a moment before she smiled, "Are you getting ready to go home? Then, I'll

pack up and go back together with you all."

After that, she went straight to her room.

Eudora became really perturbed at the moment as

Naomi was acting too strangely!

"Amos, what's up with our daughter?"

Amos furrowed his brow. He also noticed that something was amiss with Naomi. Eudora, on the other

hand, had already followed her, sneaking quietly to her door and listening inside carefully.

Then, she ran back to him in a hurry.

"Naomi doesn't seem to be up to anything inside her room. What's wrong with her?"

Amos went ballistic and said, "Something must have happened with Nelson! I've got a bone to pick with

him!"

After that, Amos went straight out.

Eudora failed to stop him.

So, she could only call out for Naomi hastily, "Naomi, come out quickly! Your father is going to the

hospital!"

Originally, Naomi had wanted to be alone for a while to calm herself down, but upon hearing her

mother's voice, she ran out in a hurry.

"What? Dad went to the hospital?"

"Yes, he has gone to look for Nelson!"

The two of them hurriedly chased after Amos.

In the ward of the hospital.

As Naomi and Eudora arrived, they were in time to hear Amos confronting Nelson.

"Tell me, what did you do to Naomi? Why is she behaving so strangely?"

Nelson looked nervous as he asked, "How is she holding up?"

"You don't have the right to ask that question. I'm asking you, what did you do to Naomi?"

Nelson pursed his lips and said, "I just said that I want to break up with her!"

Amos was flabbergasted and so was Eudora, who had caught up to them.

Naomi, who was also about to enter the room, stopped upon hearing Nelson's words.

"Naomi..."

Eudora looked at the dumbstruck Naomi and felt upset on her behalf as well.

Naomi gave a wry smile and said, "Mom, you and Dad can be relieved now, right? He doesn't like me

and there'll be nothing between us anymore! So, just ask Dad to come out now!"

Before her voice could even die out, she heard Nelson cry out in pain.

Naomi was startled.

Then, she heard Amos's firm and forceful voice as he scolded, "I'm warning you, don't mess with my

daughter! Even if you two were to break up, it's my daughter who'll dump you, not the other way

around. If you find this hard to accept, feel free to come and find me!"

Nelson stretched his hand out and touched his injured cheek.

Then, he laughed softly, "There's no trouble at all, Mr. Granger."

Amos frowned then turned around to leave the room.

As soon as he came out of the ward, he saw that Naomi and Eudora were already waiting outside.

Before he could say anything, Naomi had already come over to hug him.

"Dad, thank you."

At the end of the day, her parents were the ones who doted on her the most! Naomi sniffled, feeling

touched.

Amos was startled as he patted her consolingly on her back.

"Let's go home! There's nothing else left to talk about."

The three of them turned around and left. Nelson looked at their backs and snorted.

Nelson looked at their backs and let out a snort. After all, they would definitely meet again in Rosaville

City!

After returning to Rosaville City, Naomi handed over the project to her colleague and put her energy

into another one.

Another week passed and Benedict came to look for her all of a sudden.

"What have you been doing recently? Are you busy? There's an event about design in Rosaville City

tonight. Shall I accompany you to join it?"

Naomi had heard about it too and was interested in it, but she had failed to obtain a ticket. She was

reluctant to bother her father, thus she had been contemplating her problem for some time.

Now that she heard from Benedict that he could get the tickets, she rejoiced at the news.

"Let's meet at the entrance of the event's venue at 8 o'clock tonight!"

Benedict was also joyful as he replied, "Okay, see you soon!"

Meanwhile, in another place, Nelson was also talking to Richard, "She'll definitely go to the event

tonight! Help me make some arrangements..."

Richard was puzzled as he asked, "Didn't you break up with Miss George already? Why did you do

that?"

Nelson replied with a faint smile, "Seems like you've never been in a relationship before. Well,

sometimes, we have to play hard to get in order to reach our goal, do you understand?"
