Clint too realized that he had misspoken, so he lowered his voice gradually.

Wesley glanced into the ward and said, "There are a lot of matters left unsettled in the company. I'll be with President Granger. Please go ahead if you need to head back to the company."

Clint indeed had a lot on his plate. After all, Amos had been sick for half a month while he himself had been detained in the police station for so long. The man who had turned himself in had confessed to the crime, but until now, he still did not know what was going on.

He had a lot of work waiting for him to deal with, and he couldn't afford to stay here any longer.

"I'll leave first then. Call me if you need anything."

After Clint left, Wesley closed his eyes and leaned back on the bench.

Every single expression of that woman flashed through his mind.

Each and every one of them had shown that she was not an ungrateful person.

Wesley couldn't forget that it was Eudora who had saved him at the critical moment. To some extent, Eudora was even important to him as compared to Amos.

He didn't believe it! He was convinced that there must be some misunderstanding in this matter.

However, this was not the time to look into this. Now that Juju had become like this, he had to prioritize her first. After all, he had promised Mrs. Granger that he would take good care of Miss Juju. Wesley walked back to the ward and took a look at Juju.

Juju was no longer standing by the bedside. She was sitting on the couch next to her and she had taken out the things in her schoolbag and drawing something.

Wesley remained silent when he saw that she was so quiet. He went to check on Amos and make sure that his condition was stable. Only then did he walk over and sit next to Juju. Wesley accompanied Juju for the entire afternoon. Even when the night fell, Juju refused to stop drawing.

At this moment, Wesley finally realized that something was off.

He hurriedly tried to replace a topic to interrupt Juju's thinking.

"Miss Juju, do you still remember the tournament that we went to see this time? Did you see the shooting champion? I heard that he started shooting at a very young age, just like you!" This had been Juju's favorite topic over the past few days. He had accompanied her to watch the tournament and the two of them had always been discussing this topic ever since. However, it seemed to be useless this time.

Juju acted as though she didn't hear it at all and it seemed as though she had completely lost the desire to communicate with the outside world. Wesley racked his brain for another solution, but it was still met with failure.

In the end, he even tried to snatch the paper from Juju, but before he could even grab it, he noticed the despair in Juju's eyes.

That was not what a child should look like. Wesley was taken aback and he had no choice but to let go.

He felt that Juju might break down if he didn't let go at that moment, and he did not have the slightest idea to what extent the meltdown would be.

He composed his emotions before making a phone call to Charlie.

The moment he heard this, Charlie was possessed by an overwhelming vigilance.

"Oh no, Miss Juju is turning out the way she was the last time. She's sick again!"

It had not been long since Wesley started serving Amos, so he was unaware of Juju's previous episode, where she had refused to speak after going through a traumatic experience.

He became frightened after hearing what Charlie said.

"What should we do? Miss Juju doesn't care about anything now. She just keeps on drawing and refuses to rest. I couldn't seem to get to her at all!"

Charlie frowned and said, "Mr. Granger was the only one who could comfort Miss Juju in the past!"

Wesley looked at Amos, who was lying on the bed, and said, "But Mr. Granger still hasn't woke up!" He really was in a bind now!

Wesley was flustered when Helen came into the ward. "What's wrong? And what's wrong with Juju?"

Wesley didn't know much about coaxing and comforting children, so he had no choice but to tell Helen the truth. "Miss Juju is in a bad mood!"

Helen walked over. "Juju, could you please tell me what's wrong with you?"

Juju paid no attention to her. She immediately turned around and walked towards the door. Wesley caught up with her hurriedly and said, "Miss Juju!" Wesley turned around and looked at Helen. "I'm sorry, I'll have to ask you to take care of Mr. Granger for a while. I need to check on Miss Juju." "Please go ahead!" Helen said.

After Wesley left, Helen put down the document in her hand and stood by the bedside. The man on the bed was still in a coma, but it was only at this moment that she could stand so close to him. Because he would fence off every woman as soon as he was awake, all for the sake of his wife.

Helen couldn't help but feel a little envious of Eudora.

At this moment, the man on the bed suddenly whispered, "Eudora, Eudora..."

Helen hurried forward. "Mr. Granger, are you awake? How do you feel?"

However, Amos didn't wake up at all. He was still in a dream, struggling with all his might.

"Eudora, please don't go."

Helen froze for a moment. Did Eudora leave? No wonder she didn't see her outside just now. But... why did she leave?

Mr. Granger had treated her so well. Why would she leave him when he needed her most?

Helen felt unjustified and she felt an urge to comfort Amos. Unexpectedly, Amos raised his hand just in time, as though he was trying to grab something.

His finger touched the back of Helen's hand inadvertently.

His huge hands were dry but warm. Helen's heart started thumping wildly, completely out of her control.

She admitted that she harbored a different feeling for Amos. When she saw Amos and Eudora together previously, although she was envious, she also knew that they were a match made in heaven and it was not something she could interfere in.

However, she didn't expect that Eudora would abandon Amos in such a situation. She felt that Amos did not deserve such terrible treatment!

After all, Amos was such a good man. No one in this world could compare to him.

Helen's eyes suddenly fell on Amos's big, dry hand. She couldn't take her eyes off him anymore.

Amos was still calling out Eudora's name in a low voice repeatedly.

"Eudora, please don't go."

Helen took a deep breath. With her heart about to leap out of her chest, she reached out quickly and grabbed Amos's fingers.

This was the first time that she had such close contact with him. She felt as though fireworks were blooming in her sky.

She tried to make her voice sound more gentle, a little similar to Eudora's. She answered over and over again, "I'm here, I won't leave you."

After that, she bent down quietly and rested her head on his shoulder.

She pretended that he was calling her name.

Helen felt that she was the happiest person in the world at this moment.

At this moment, Doctor Leon opened the door behind her and came in. He was coming over to inspect Amos' condition. As soon as he opened the door, he saw his daughter leaning on Amos' shoulder intimately.

Doctor Leon's expression darkened. He hurried over and pulled Helen away. "You d*mn girl. You're out of your mind!"
