That man was more stubborn than she had imagined. Even though Eudora was holding him by the throat at that moment, he still kept his tongue. "Miss George, you don't have to waste your energy. I will never betray my leader! This is the rule of our organization."

Organization?

Eudora suddenly thought of Charlie. Both Charlie and Wesley were in the same organization, and they existed solely for Amos's safety.

Eudora gritted her teeth as she pushed that thought out of her head speedily.

"Don't you try to mislead me. Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, then I will..."

Eudora grabbed the fruit knife on the table beside her. Then, she rested the tip of the knife on her neck.

"Didn't you say that your leader cares a lot about my safety? If you don't tell me, I'll slash myself, and I would love to see how both of you are going to explain this to your leader!"

The man immediately panicked and begged, "Miss George, please don't do this! He will never let me go!"

"Are you telling me or not then?"

"I'll tell you, okay? I'll tell you. It's Mr. Nolan! Mr. Nolan was the one who arranged this!"

Fabian?

Eudora's eyebrows were knitted into a tight knot, "What does he intend to do by bringing me over?"

"He..." The man paused again, "I believe that he has his own plans. Miss George, please don't make things difficult for us!"

Eudora had gotten her answer, so she couldn't be bothered to argue with that man anymore. The most important thing at that moment was to escape while that man was watching over her alone. She picked the rope up hastily and tied the man before leaving.

Once she got outside, Eudora discovered that she was in a new residential area, and there was hardly anyone living in that area. Moreover, it was a place that she was not familiar with. Eudora made her way down the stairs as she scrambled her mind on ways to leave that place. All of a sudden, she noticed that the man who had gone out to buy the medicine had returned.

A chill went down Eudora's spine, and she hid behind the discarded boxes at the side hurriedly. She eyed the man as he went upstairs.

Once the man was out of sight, Eudora left immediately, but she realized that she was not familiar with that area. If she wandered around aimlessly, it would increase the possibility of them recapturing her. Hence, she had no choice but to stay where she was quietly and waited for them to rush out.

Once they left the house, she could then slowly replace her way around the area.

Eudora calmed down and waited for them to chase after her. Sure enough, a few minutes later, she heard rumbling footsteps all the way downstairs. They were muttering among themselves as they walked. "What's wrong with you? Couldn't you just guard her properly? This isn't good. If we messed up his plans, both of us would be in serious trouble."

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I hope that his plans have already succeeded! Let's hurry up and chase after her."

"I hope so. We would be able to rescue Charlie once the George Family withdraws their complaint. Then, our efforts would not be wasted too. As he had said, Miss George is clever. Fortunately, I was clever enough to say Fabian's name instead..."

As the two men's footsteps gradually faded away, Eudora stood there as if she had fallen into an ice pit.

It seemed that she feared had finally happened. She had been trying to remove Amos from her assumptions from the night before. She refused to believe that Amos was the one who kidnapped her. When Fabian's name was mentioned earlier, she breathed out a sigh of relief instantly.

However, in the end...

Eudora took a deep breath and slowly strode out from behind the boxes. She managed to get into a taxi once she reached the main road.

However, shortly after she left, the two men who went out to look for her appeared from a dark corner.

A black car stopped beside the two men.

"Good job. I will reward you two well."

"Thank you, Mr. Nolan! You're the best."

Eudora's mind was blank all the way. She took out her phone and realized her phone was out of battery.

Fortunately, the taxi driver had a charger in the car, and she used it to charge her phone.

As soon as she turned on her phone, notifications popped up like crazy. Most of the calls were from the Holt Manor, which probably was from Juju and Hodge.

The messages were all from Samuel and Leslie. Eudora simply replied, "I'm fine now!"

She then put down the phone.

Her phone rang seconds after she sent out the message. She heard Leslie's anxious voice from the other end, "Miss Eudora, you've finally answered the phone. Did something happen?" "It's nothing. I'm fine."

She felt a little emotionally tired and she didn't have the energy to talk to anyone.

Leslie pursed his lips and said, "Miss Eudora, someone from the Granger Family came to us and requested us to withdraw our complaint..."

Eudora's heart tightened. She remembered what the two men said before they left. Turmoil raged in her heart.

"I don't agree!"

Leslie nodded compliantly. "Miss Eudora, I'm glad that we think the same way. I won't let Mr. Holt's death go without an explanation. What makes them think that they could do whatever they want? I have already sent them back!"

"That's good!" Although Eudora uttered those words, her heart was still in turmoil.

She did not know how things had turned out this way.

"I'm a little tired. If that's everything, I'll need you and Uncle Chilton to take care of the company's affairs. I would like to have two days off to rest!"

Eudora buried herself on the sofa after hanging up the phone. Observing the red marks on her arm, she recalled what the two men had said the night before.

They said that they must take good care of her and not hurt her even in the slightest way. What did he mean by that? Was he trying to show how deep his love was? However, even if it was so profound, he still asked Charlie to kill her father. Tyler was the last blood relative she had in this world.

Eudora let out a bitter laugh. Her nose felt a tinge of sourness.

She was sad when Tyler passed, but she had never been so disappointed.

She even tried to defend Charlie as she didn't want Charlie to take the blame. That was why she had ordered the police to investigate the matter thoroughly.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was a fool.

Hodge let out a sigh of relief when he saw that Eudora had returned.

Eudora looked around and asked anxiously, "Where's Juju?"

"Oh, Miss Juju said that she wanted to meet President Granger. I noticed how sad she was and I was worried that she couldn't bear the grief, so I tried to replace a way to get in touch with President Granger. He had just taken Miss Juju away..."

Eudora frowned. Her heart tightened when she heard Amos' name.

Just as she was about to fetch Juju back, she saw her little child running towards her.

And Amos was trailing behind Juju.
