Kesha breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he hadn't seen anything.

She brought the bowl of soup over to him and picked up a spoon. "I'll feed you!"

Amos agreed and nodded his head. "Okay!"

Kesha fed a spoonful of soup into Amos' mouth and watched him drink it. She smiled and asked, "How is it? Does it taste good?"

Amos pursed his lips and remarked, "It doesn't taste the same as before!"

Kesha paused. Just as she was about to explain, Amos said, "I'm sorry, I couldn't protect you. You must be very scared, even your cooking has changed!"

Kesha was relieved and she immediately grabbed onto Amos's arm.

"I was scared to death! Fortunately, I could still come back here."

Amos withdrew his hand quietly and stroked her hair. "I'll protect you in the future."

He turned away after drinking two more mouthfuls of soup.

"I'm sorry, I seem to have lost my appetite.

You must be tired, why don't you go take a rest?"

Kesha shook her head. "I'm not tired. If you can't fall asleep, I'll be here, right beside you!"

Amos did not respond. He then closed his eyes as he continued to sit there.

Kesha stared at his back, and then recalled the call she had with Fabian.

Fabian had requested that she first obtain information about Valiant East and TEM Company.

Taking a deep breath, Kesha asked, "Amos, is the injury on your back okay?"

Amos paused before replying. "Oh, it's much better!"

Kesha noticed that he was about to fall asleep, so she took the opportunity to ask.

"It's a pity that the TEM Company has withdrawn from the Greene City market, You must have lost a lot, right?"

Amos hummed faintly, and his voice grew softer and softer.

"Amos?" Kesha called out, her gaze lingering on the key in his pockets.

If she wanted to look for information, she should probably start in Amos's study. He was the CEO of TEM Company and Valiant East. Since Fabian couldn't replace any information about those two companies anywhere else, then the information must be in his study.

Kesha got up and pushed Amos' arm when he was in a daze.

"Amos? You should sleep on the bed! You'll hurt your neck if you fall asleep like this."

Amos had really fallen asleep this time, and he did not respond at all.

Kesha took the key off his pockets carefully, pushed the door open quietly, and went out.

The tip of Amos' fingers moved just as she stepped out of the room.

Kesha held the key and opened Amos' study in a click. Luckily, only Amos and she were left in this house. Kesha immediately opened the drawer of his desk.

There were a lot of shelves in the room and she searched through all of them.

However, she couldn't replace anything!

She was about to check if there was anything she had missed, but all of a sudden, she heard the sound of a door closing. Kesha ran out hurriedly.

She found that Amos was still asleep when she returned to the bedroom. The wind was blowing into the room from the windows, and the thin curtains flew up high. Kesha heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that she had overthought.

Meanwhile, inside the abandoned residential area in the suburbs.

Eudora woke up in a daze and heard a commotion outside. Fabian had been very careful with her for the better part of the day. Even when she had picked a fight with him on purpose, Fabian did not fight back, fearing that they would alert others. However, he was so loud and noisy now that even Eudora couldn't figure out what had happened. What exactly was going on? She perked up her ears and got a rough idea of what was going on. It turned out that Malcom had been caught by the police. Fabian was throwing a tantrum in front of Callum, looking very angry.

At this moment, the bedroom door was kicked open. Fabian came in from outside and hugged Eudora.

Eudora was tied up and couldn't move at all. She had no choice but to headbutt Fabian's head. "Let me go!"

Fabian's eyes were red as he caressed Eudora's aching head. "Eudora, are you blind? Which part of me is worse than Amos? Why are you treating me like this?"

Eudora laughed coldly. "You can't be compared to him! No matter what, you'll always be the worse choice between the two of you in every aspect!"

Fabian was in a really bad mood. When he heard Eudora's words, he could no longer control his anger and grabbed Eudora's neck.

"Shut up!"

He clasped Eudora so hard that she opened her mouth, trying her best to breathe.

Fabian, however, didn't notice that he was strangling Eudora in a fit of rage. "Why do you despise me? I'm trying so hard to prove myself. Why? Why do you despise me? Even if it was someone else in my shoes, could you guarantee that he'll do better than me? I've changed the status of the Nolan family completely. We went from puny and weak to what it is now. What did I do wrong? Why? Why did all of you betray me!"

His grip on her neck grew tighter and a tear fell from the corner of her eye.

The next second, all she could see was darkness. She had already passed out.

Callum let out a cry of surprise when he entered the room.

"Miss George!"

Only then did Fabian come back to his senses and let go of his hand. "Eudora... I didn't mean to do that. I really didn't mean to!"

Holding up Eudora desperately, Fabian shouted, "Quick, call a doctor!"

Callum took a step back and stuttered, "But, we are..." We're running for our lives!

However, Fabian had already gone mad. He no longer cared about what situation they were in, and he kept shouting for a doctor.

Callum had no choice but to rush out.

Meanwhile, Eudora was dreaming a sweet dream. In the dream, she saw Amos coming to save her. Then, he took her hand and they walked into the sunset together.

In the dream, she thought that she was dead. Otherwise, how would she be able to see such a beautiful scene?

It wasn't until Fabian's voice came from behind her that Eudora came back to her senses. When she opened her eyes, she was still staring at the place that she hated the most. She was still lying on the bed in the room.

The only difference was that the rope on her arm had been untied.

Callum pointed a gun at the doctor's neck as he asked, "How is she?"

The doctor trembled as he replied, "She's okay, she has already woken up."

Fabian breathed a sigh of relief and turned to hold Eudora's hand again.

"Sorry, Eudora, it's my fault. I shouldn't have been so impulsive. I could never forgive myself if something were to happen to you just now."

Eudora turned away and sneered.

"You would have let me go if you really cared about me! Now, no matter what you say, it just all sounds hypocritical to me."

Fabian furrowed his brows, and the doctor beside him continued to beg.

"I've already treated the patient. Why won't you let me go?"

Fabian was a little irritated by the doctor and ordered coldly, "Lock him in the storage!"
