At that moment, even if he wanted to hide the truth, he could not. Thea would replace out sooner or later. Instead of letting her imagination run wild, he'd better tell it to her by himself.

After bringing the child over and helping Thea sit down, Harley began to speak.

"Yes, there's just a small problem. Don't panic first. I'll tell you slowly, okay?"

How could Thea not be anxious? She was about to cry as soon as she heard his words.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with Cutie Pie? It's all my fault..."

"No, no!" Harley hurriedly took her into his arm. "It's not your problem. No one can be blamed for this. If anyone has to be blamed, it would be me. He only has a little defect in his body. It happens to any child. Don't be sad. The doctor said that as long as the child undergoes a small operation, he'll be fine!"

Although Harley tried very hard to talk about it calmly and had hoped he would soothe Thea, in reality, he still failed.

As soon as Thea heard that the child was having all kinds of bad conditions, she was about to have a breakdown.

"What did you say? What's the defect he has? Why does he have to go through an operation? Is it because of me? I didn't protect him well during pregnancy..."

In the current situation, Thea easily harbored all the negative emotions within her and she was completely losing her vitality.

When Harley saw her like this, he felt uneasy and distressed.

"Thea, listen to me. You can't blame yourself like this. What about Cutie Pie? He really needs you!"

However, how could Thea regain her rationality so easily? She put all the blame on herself and hated herself for not taking good care of the child.

She kept thinking, "Why are other people's children all healthy? Why can't my childe be one of them too?"

As she thought about it, she subconsciously began to pinch herself. Although she had already cut off all her fingernails to take care of the child, she had still pinched her legs so hard that bruises soon blossomed on her legs.

Harley had no choice but to make up his mind. He took Cutie Pie in his arms and pinched the child's leg.

The child's sharp cry finally pulled Thea back of her thoughts.

She hurriedly hugged the child and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with him?"

Harley breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "He wants you to hold him."

"Oh, then I'll hold him. Cutie Pie, you have to be fine. I'll hold you and protect you well."

On the same day, they booked a room and arranged for the child to be hospitalized.

Thea was in a trance. Only Cutie Pie could help her regain a little positive energy.

Then, Harley asked her to take care of the child while he went around to settle everything. When it started getting dark, Harley got up to buy dinner.

As for Eudora, after she signed the contract with the other party, the project officially started.

On the day of commencement, the other party specially invited Eudora to attend the opening ceremony. The last time, they did not know that Eudora was Amos's wife. They had almost lost a treasure! Now that they knew so, they must not let her go.

Therefore, after Eudora went there, she felt that everyone was being very enthusiastic towards her. She knew the reason why, and she was slowly getting used to this scenario. Amos was just like her cheat engine that she couldn't afford to lose. Others couldn't get him even if they wanted to!

At the same time, in a corner, Amos and Harley, who looked gaunt, were staring at a monitor.

On the screen, there was a man right in front of them. That man was obviously Mark.

The last time when he failed to kidnap Eudora, he was released after being locked up only for a few days.

In the past few days, Harley had been looking for people to keep an eye on him, according to Amos's idea! Who knew that he had been staying in his own rented house all the time. This day, he finally came out.

"From the looks of him, he might look for that person for a showdown!"

With a yawn from Harley, Amos looked back at Harley, who looked haggard, and then frowned.

"What's wrong with you? You were fine yesterday, weren't you?"

"I'm fine." Harley shook his head. "I'm just a little tired."

Of course, Amos did not believe him. They had been best friends for so many years. Of course, he knew what kind of state Harley was usually in.

He had once endured for five days without sleep due to tracking down a thief. He had looked more energetic than he was at the moment.

However, since he didn't want to say anything, Amos didn't probe any further. He just patted him on the shoulder and turned to send Clint a message, "Check if anything has happened to Harley's family." When Amos finished dealing with the matter, he looked up and saw that the man on the screen had already arrived at the construction site.

Amos was stunned for a moment before he stood up, "Oh no!"

Harley also forced himself to pay attention to the screen. "What the f*ck! Why did this scoundrel go to Eudora's construction site? Is he going to cause trouble again?"

The two ran out one after the other. As Amos ran, he called the person in charge of the project.

However, they were too busy cheering at the party and the phone call could not be heard at all.

Amos was so angry that he threw the phone to the back seat of the car. Then, he stepped on the gas pedal and sped to the site.

At that time, Eudora and the others were watching the excavator dig the first bucket of soil. It was a ritual to so their business had a good start.

The person-in-charge saw that they were almost done, so he came over and spoke to Eudora.

"If it's convenient for Miss George, why don't we invite President Granger for dinner one day? I've heard that the Valiant East is very powerful in the real estate industry. It would be our honor to meet him!" Eudora smiled but didn't say anything. She was really proud that the other people favored Amos so much.

However, she did not want to intervene in Amos's business. Valiant East had formed its own system, and there were standards and requirements for the suppliers and business partners.

Those who could not achieve them would not be chosen for cooperation.

Upon hearing his words, she just vaguely nodded her head and said, "I'll try my best."

While they were talking, a gasp sounded behind them. Suddenly, someone shouted, "Be careful!"

Eudora was dumbstruck. As she looked up, she saw the arm of the excavator going out of control.

There was a mixture of soils and stones in the bucket, and they were all coming down in her direction.

The person-in-charge of the project standing next to her suddenly yelled, "Miss George, run!"

This could as an object falling from a drastic height. What's more, there were stones in it. If someone were to be injured by them, the wounds would be serious. Eudora was about to leave, but she realized that Leslie was under the excavator bucket.

Her heart tightened in anxiety, "Uncle Clarke!"

Leslie saw her running towards him, and he staggered.

"Miss George, you-"

When the excavator's arm was about to swing over, a loud bang was heard, and the

excavator suddenly stopped. The stones inside the bucket were also flung aside. Amos exhaled deeply and looked at the excavator in cold sweat.
