Chapter 1006: Chapter 1006 I Will Not Compromise When You Are Harmed

Amos replied, “Yes, I really can’t trust Nelson!”

Harley nodded and said, “I can understand your feelings. After all, from your point of view, he is your enemy, but this time, you might have misunderstood him! Based on our investigation, he is the victim in this incident. Moreover, his injuries are quite severe too. He is in the ward next door. If you don’t believe me, you can go and check his medical records.”

“Could it be that he deliberately got injured to gain our trust?” Amos asked in a low voice.

“I don’t know about that. However, he had indeed given his life to rescue Naomi and Eudora, thus I’m rather dubious about the whole notion that he was faking it.”

Hearing his words, Amos cast a doubtful look at Harley.

Harley shrugged his shoulders and didn’t say anything else. A nurse came in, so Amos asked the nurse about the patient in the next ward.

The nurse spoke excitedly, “Are you talking about Mr. Luther in the next door? He is really awesome! Although I have been working as a nurse for so many years, I have never seen such a persevering patient. A high dosage of hypnotic drugs, which could basically make an elephant faint, was detected in his body. Nonetheless, he could still save people. Unfortunately, he had grazed his palms and there is a bruise on his chest.”

Amos furrowed his brow. After the nurse left, Harley spoke again.

After the nurse left, Harley spoke again, “Actually, there’s more than that. We also found some small monitoring equipment at the scene, and there was some recorded footage in it. I’m not sure if he was purposely scheming a plot. However, it seems that he really put his heart and soul into saving people this time!”

Amos went silent for a while, and eventually, he said nothing else in the end.

“You can go back now. Keep a close eye on those two men. Be sure to find out who is behind all this! How dare they harm my family members! I will not let them get away with this!”

Harley nodded and said, “Alright!”

Eudora, who was lying on the bed, made a soft sound, and Amos hurriedly walked over.

When Harley noticed her movements, he decided to leave right away.

Eudora suddenly shouted, “Naomi, be careful!”

Her eyes opened.

Amos held her down and said, “It’s over! It’s alright, we’re safe!”

Eudora was confused for a moment. The events that had happened before she fainted came to her mind. Only then did she come to her senses.

“Thank God! Where’s Naomi?”

Upon hearing this, he instantly turned his head away and poured a glass of water for her.

“Have some water first!”

Eudora was quite thirsty. The abduction and the fight with the kidnapper had fatigued her. She had even forgotten to take care of her own safety throughout the mishap.

After having some water, she spoke again.

She asked, “Where is Naomi?”

“I don’t know,” said Amos coldly.

Eudora came to a sudden realization. She accused, “You’re angry again, aren’t you? I’m fine, aren’t I? What else is there for you to be angry about?”

Amos frowned and said, “You’re fine this time, but what about next time? Naomi never behaved like this before. I can’t bear the fact that she hurt you because of someone else!”

Eudora laughed and said, “She didn’t hurt me. When did she do so? If she hadn’t protected me several times, I would have suffered more awful injuries!”

“You’ve worked so hard to raise her. As our daughter, she was supposed to protect you. Furthermore, you have to know that if it weren’t for her, you wouldn’t have gotten into all this!”

“It was just an accident. She didn’t do it on purpose!”

“There’s no need to discuss this anymore. I won’t forgive her so easily this time!”

Eudora felt helpless and wanted to say something else. The nurse happened to come in from outside and ask, “Are you awake? Let me examine you for a bit.”

“Thank you!”

Then, she remembered that Naomi and Nelson had both been injured.

Therefore she began to ask the nurse, “Is there any patient called ‘Nelson Luther’ or ‘Naomi George’ being hospitalized here?”

The nurse nodded and said, “Yes, Nelson Luther is in the next ward. As for Naomi George, I don’t recall seeing such a name on the list of hospitalized patients.”

“Then, have you seen a girl who resembles me? Maybe in the next ward?”

After that, the nurse took a serious look at Eudora.

“Oh, you must be talking about Mr. Luther’s girlfriend. I saw her standing outside of your ward when I came in just now. Is she your sister?”

Eudora quickly shook her head and said, “She’s my daughter!”

The nurse spoke in awe, “She’s your daughter? You look so young!”

The nurse did not lie. Eudora indeed looked quite young, but she felt a little embarrassed upon hearing the nurse’s compliment.

“Where is she?” she turned and looked at the door.

“Naomi, come in!”

A figure with black long hair could be made out through the glass window facing the doorway. Hearing Eudora’s voice, Naomi seemed to move a step forward.

However, Amos sternly warned her, “You’re not allowed to come in!”

As a result, she took a step back! At the sight of that, Eudora expressed her irritation towards Amos’s strict attitude. She said, “I want to see my daughter!”

Amos was obstinate and said, “I’m not budging on this!”

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, the nurse got up immediately.

“Well, I…”

Before her voice had died away, Amos’s face had already shifted He spoke tenderly, “Listen to me. Let’s treat you first!”

The nurse was rendered speechless.

She thought to herself. “Oh my God! It turns out that not only is he handsome, but he also dotes on his wife?”

However, Eudora was stubborn and refused his request, “If you don’t let me see Naomi, I won’t comply with that!”

Amos turned to glance at the nurse who was watching the scene unfold. He said, “Please take your leave first!”

The nurse came to her senses at once. She looked at the two of them and wondered if she had the wrong perception of them just then.

“Everyone has their tempers, so this gentleman is going to bully her, isn’t he?” She pondered.

“Sir, in fact…”

“Get out!”

Amos repeated his words yet again, his words sending a chill down her spine. Consequently, she turned around and ran out!

Amos’s manner had scared her off.

She didn’t dare to go far. As a caring nurse, she dawdled at the door for a while. To her, doing so would be easier for her to go in and save the patient in case anything bad happened to Eudora.

Unexpectedly, Amos’s gentle voice trailed out from the room.

“I always listen to your orders, so can’t you listen to mine this time?”

The nurse was dumbfounded “What? You’re just treating her tenderly? If so, why were you so fierce just now?!” she couldn’t help but think.

…

Being persuaded by Amos, Eudora responded by making a retort.

“I know that you’re brooding over my injuries, but I’m okay. As for these wounds, they’re all skin lesions. It’s not a big deal. I’m totally fine!”

Seeing her put on a brave face, he gently poked her in the abdomen.

Eudora grimaced in pain.

“Still lying to me, huh? I’ve already asked the doctor to take a full look into your body’s condition. Indeed, the skin lesions are just minor problems. However, your abdominal injury is quite serious. It almost hurt your internal organs! Also, I saw with my own eyes that you almost fell down from the cliff. Eudora, I can tolerate and make concessions when it comes to everything but you. I will not compromise when you are harmed!”
