My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 722
Fortunately, Amos had come in time. Then, he kept the gun he had been holding in his hand.
Harley followed and admired him behind. He was awesome!
It turned out that Amos even knew the structure of an excavator. He really was too awesome! Not to mention, he had even managed to stop it with a shot. Why did Harley suddenly feel that it would be better if Amos had become a police officer?
Just as he was thinking about it, Amos anxiously walked towards Eudora and looked at her, 'Are you alright?"
Eudora's eyes lit up, "Amos, why are you here?"
"If I didn't come, you'd be in danger again!"
Eudora's face went slack and she said, "I'm alright, eh? Perhaps it wasn't that serious after all?"
Leslie was still in shock, looking at Amos nervously.
"Sorry, Mr. Granger, I..."
Amos ignored him and directly held Eudora's hand, "Let's go inside."
Amos had been holding a grudge towards Leslie in his heart because Leslie had opposed Amos and Eudora being together beforehand. Amos was still frustrated about that until now! Eudora covered her forehead with her hand. In her heart, Amos had always been an open-minded man. However, this day, she finally saw such a petty and vengeful side of him.
Although she felt embarrassed for Uncle Clarke, she still felt that Amos was being a little childish and funny.
She hurriedly apologized on behalf of Amos and said, "Uncle Clarke, you can go back first!"
After that, Eudora followed Amos out.
The two walked into the lounge one after another. As Eudora entered, she saw Amos sitting down with a fierce face.
Eudora hurriedly approached him and looked at him with a smile.
"Hubby, you were so awesome just now! I didn't even see what was going on. You're so cool!"
Amos ignored her. God knew how frightened he was. She had even thought about saving others when she had been in such a dangerous situation. She had never
considered how Amos and the children would end up if something had really happened to her.
So, he became serious again. He felt that this time, he had to let Eudora know his standpoint.
In the next second, Eudora had already reached out to grab his arm and gently shook it. "Hubby," Eudora called out affectionately.
Amos's heart softened, but he still frowned with a strict face, "Do you know what you've done wrong?"
Eudora's face was baffled, "Did I do anything wrong?"
Amos was dumbfounded.
Swatting away her hands, Amos turned his head and decided to ignore her.
Eudora thought about it for a while. When she saw the malfunctioning excavator, she realized that Leslie was in trouble, so she wanted to save him. In those series of events, there was nothing wrong with what she did indeed.
"Why don't you just tell me what I've done wrong?"
Amos felt really helpless. "Why aren't you embarrassed to ask? What if you're hurt for
rushing out like that? Have you ever thought about the children and me?"
Eudora suddenly understood. It turned out to be this issue!
"However, I won't get hurt!" Eudora laughed. "What you don't know is that I already saw a metal structure next to Leslie. I had thought about it at that time. After I rushed forward, I would take Uncle Clarke to hide behind the structure, and we would be alright!"
Amos was startled.
How could she be so simple-minded!
Eudora actually thought that she was being nimble-witted, but the next second, she saw Amos's face growing even darker.
She sighed in her heart and decided to use the fatal skill.
Giving herself a hard pinch, Eudora hissed.
Sure enough, the next second, she saw Amos, who was initially angry, pull her arm towards him and he asked her with concern, "What happened?"
Eudora shook her head. "I might have accidentally bumped into something somewhere?"
"Serves you right!" Amos said coldly. However, the strength in his hand still
weakened, and he gently massaged the place, "It didn't injure your bones..."
His big cold hand gently pressed against her arm. Eudora looked at Amos' tense jawline. While he was not paying attention, she suddenly leaned her head forward and kissed his jaw. The peck definitely surprised Amos.
The next moment, she slipped into Amos's arms like a kitten.
"Thank you, hubby. You're so kind."
She broke through the last cloud of gloom over him. This woman always acted like this, converting all of his anger into gentleness.
However, Amos had finally vented a little of his anger this time. Therefore, he still reprimanded,
"If you don't take care of yourself next time, I'll teach you a lesson!"
"Yes!" Eudora said with a smile.
Seeing that it was about time, Eudora planned on returning to the company. Amos, on the other hand, said that he still had something to do and watched as Eudora and the others left. When they were far away, Amos went back and found Harley inside.
"Did you replace him?"
Harley nodded, "He was caught, but the people who contacted him have not been found out. When I caught him, I found this in his pocket..."
Harley handed a business card to Amos.
It was a purely black business card with only a name printed on it via foil stamping, and it had no phone number.
'Kennedy Horace' was written clearly on it.
"Him?"
Harley nodded, "At that time, we all thought that the Nolan family was the leader of the underground organization. After the fall of the Nolan family, most of the people either fled away or got caught. After interrogating, it turned out that there was such a person like this. Moreover, this person was probably the head of the organization!"
Amos's gaze darkened, and he suddenly remembered the words that Kesha had uttered to Eudora when they had gone to visit her.
She said that there was still someone behind all this...
However, what was that person's goal? Was he trying to drag the Holt family down?
After all, that was what Fabian had said
before his death. He had mentioned that the Holt family would never be able to escape punishment!
"Amos, what are you thinking about?" Harley asked.
They had never told anyone about what had happened to the Holt family. Although Harley was his best friend, he could not mention anything about it to him...
"No!" Amos shook his head, "It seems that we have to pay attention to this person!"
"Yes!" Harley nodded. "However, don't you worry. No matter how powerful he is, he's still hidden in the shadows. We can definitely catch him."
"Yes!" Amos nodded.
Just then, his phone rang. It was Clint who was calling.
After hanging up on the call, Amos looked at Harley.
"You're always busy with my affairs. Why don't you tell me about your own life?"
Harley was dumbfounded. "You know all about it?"
"I called Clint to arrange a more capable pediatrician for you. Everything will be fine! By the way, you have to tell Eudora about this matter. When she replaces out that you didn't tell her about such a problem, she'll be angry!"
Harley nodded, and for some reason, his nose felt a little runny.
"Amos, thank you."
Amos patted him on the shoulder. "You're my best friend. Why do you still treat me like a stranger?"
