Chapter 3: Chapter 3 The Last Time

Woosh!

Eudora George opened her eyes when a bucket of cold water was splashed on her face.

‘Is she dead? Is she in heaven? If there was a next life, she wants to be a person who can decide her own fate.’ she thought.

“Oh, First Miss, are you awake?”

“You were caught red-handed by the Meyer family for having an affair!” Eudora’s stepsister Kesha George uttered in disdain. “They sent you back, do you know that? The entire George family’s reputation has been ruined by you!”

“Kesha, what are you talking about?” It was her manipulative stepmother, Felicia Maurice.

Eudora looked at the gloating faces of Felicia and Kesha in front of her, and she smiled bitterly in her heart. It turned out that it was not heaven. It was back to hell.

She struggled and winced at her aching body as she sat up. She smirked.

“Well, I was just following the footsteps of this family anyway. The mistress now becomes the wife.”

“You…” Kesha glared at her angrily. “Dad, did you hear what Eudora just said?”

Gordon George stood next to Kesha. Eudora finally noticed that her father was there as well. She puckered her lips, keeping quiet out of respect for her father.

“Dad, I want a divorce!” Eudora said firmly.

“I do not agree!” Gordon spoke loudly.

She felt a pang of disappointment. She thought that even though her other family members had always mistreated her, her father would still stand by her side.

Eudora sneered and tried to leave the room. “I do not care if you agree or not. I’m already an adult.”

“How dare you!” Gordon was so angry that he started coughing violently. The cough was so bad that he struggled to catch his breath. Eudora stopped walking, but she didn’t turn around.

Felicia and Kesha quickly went over to help Gordon to calm down. “Gordon, aren’t you planning to tell Eudora about our family’s situation? There’s a problem with our project and we’ve lost 50 million dollars. The George Family’s foundation would collapse without Felix’s support!”

Eudora was shocked. She remembered what Laura said when she was hitting her. Was that what she said, true?

“What the hell is going on?”

“Eudora!” Gordon burst into tears. “I hope you don’t blame me. I was not able to do anything. Your late mother and I built our wealth and influence together from scratch. But I have failed her. I am going to be the one who is going to single-handedly destroy it!”

Mother!

Eudora remembered that when her mother died, she made her promise to do everything possible to protect the George family. If only her mother were still alive…

“This is the last time, I promise! Eudora, please apologize to Felix again. As long as the George family is able to survive this crisis, I will definitely take you back!”

Eudora turned around and looked at Gordon pitifully. She no longer believed in her father, but for the sake of the promise she made to her late mother, she was willing to try one final time.

…

In the hospital.

After clearing all the required tests in the hospital, Harley Louis returned to the ward only to see the patient had already worn his clothes. After tidying himself up, Amos Granger looked nothing like a beggar. His exotic handsome features exude a mysterious charm and he looked like a person drawn out of a painting. His eyes gave him the aura of a royalty.

He leaned lazily on the sofa and started smoking.

“What are you doing? Do you really think that you are made of iron? The doctor said that you need to rest for at least half a month!”

The smoke enveloped Amos’ face, blurring his expression. The only thing visible was his cold piercing eyes.

“Do you think those people in the Granger family will let me rest for half a month?”

Harley recalled how surprised the physician was when he saw the wounds on Amos’ body. The crazy people in the Granger family would not be so kind to let him off so easily.

“Okay, since the hospital is discharging you, you should go home and rest up. I’ll send over a few men to guard your place for the time being.”

“Okay!” Amos said faintly, “Before we leave, could you please help me retrieve the recordings from the surveillance cameras around the area you found me at?”

Harley was stunned. “What are you going to do? Are you trying to relive your exciting moment heh?”

Amos glanced at him, “I’m looking for someone.”

“Who are you looking for?” After saying that, Harley clasped his mouth with his hands in realization. “Shit! Don’t… Don’t tell you’re going to look for the woman they sent? You… you’re not into SM, are you?”

“Shut up!” Amos said coldly.

“Oh!” Harley suddenly became silent. “I’ll try my best!”
