Chapter 301: Chapter 301 You Did It On Purpose

A moment later, everyone moved to the security room.

For security reasons, the large mansion belonging to the Granger family was equipped with surveillance cameras. Some of these cameras were aimed at the front entrance, so everyone who came by and left the mansion would be captured in the footage.

They watched the footage from the entire morning. Aside from Amos’ and the Old Master’s car leaving the house, no one else was seen near the entrance.

Amos’s face grew darker. He raised his head and looked at Harley Louis. By the looks of it, this was no easy opponent.

“Butler, take some staff with you and look around the house. See if you could find anyone suspicious.”

After that, all of them sat down.

Harley’s colleagues had also finished collecting evidence.

They walked over and reported, “Chief, we need to take these things back to test for fingerprints.”

Harley nodded and said, “You may head back first. Call me if you find anything.”

After they left, the butler came back in.

“We’ve looked around the entire compound, and there seems to be nothing unusual. We didn’t find anyone suspicious either.”

Harry Granger immediately looked at Eudora and said, “Aren’t you going to explain yourself? Did you actually make this up?”

“Master Harry,” Harley said, “We do not require your assistance anymore. You may leave.”

Harry snorted and said, “You seem confident, Officer Louis. One might even say that you’re being overconfident. Don’t you dare for one second think that I’m afraid of you just because you could do your job well. If you ever do anything that’s against the law, I’ll make sure that someone hears about it.”

After that, he left with Kaylene Yoder.

Ever since she was reprimanded by Harry, Kaylene was now very quiet and well-behaved.

Only Steven Granger looked at Eudora worriedly and comforted her, “Eudora, everything will be fine.”

Eudora smiled slightly, not knowing how to respond to his words. Only after the rest of the Granger family had left did she turn to Amos Granger.

“I’m not lying. Someone did come to me…”

Amos beckoned for her to approach him.

Eudora George wheeled herself toward him. He then reached out and stroked her hair, “Of course, I believe in you.”

Harley, who was next to him, was speechless.

He immediately cleared his throat, reminding them of his presence, “Hello, I’m still here.”

“I know,” Amos acknowledged his presence, but he continued to stroke Eudora’s hair.

Harley didn’t know what else to say.

Amos then reasoned, “If only two cars had left the compound, and the person didn’t escape in my car, that means that they must have escaped in the Old Master’s car. I’m pretty sure that this was well-planned….”

Harley nodded, “You’re right. I’ll instruct someone to check those two cars immediately.”

After Harley left, Amos hugged Eudora, who was still in her wheelchair, “I’m sorry that you got dragged into this again.”

Eudora shook her head, “Nonsense, it’s my fault for being careless and giving them an opportunity to do this.”

After a moment of silence, Amos said, “Things are going to get quite chaotic here for the next couple of days, and you won’t have much time to take care of Juju. Why don’t I ask Auntie Valerie to bring Juju back to Clearwater Bay? It’s much safer over there.”

Eudora nodded, “Okay!”

After the two of them had reached an agreement, Amos brought Eudora back to the Ruby House. Later, he headed to the study, armed with his equipment.

Recently, he had been trying to keep things low-profile, but it seemed like certain people were trying to test him. As a result, there was no way he could sit still any longer.

Thinking of this, Amos called Harley.

…

As she didn’t get enough sleep in the morning, Eudora immediately collapsed in bed upon arriving back in her room.

When she woke up, she saw Amos leaning against the sofa, staring at her. Eudora blinked as she reached out to caress her face.

“What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?”

Amos came to his senses and nodded, “Yes!”

Thinking that something might have smeared on her face while she was locked up that morning, Eudora brought her face closer to his.

“Where is it? Wipe it off for me…”

Amos drew his slender fingers across her face and said with a smile, “It’s beauty!”

Eudora was speechless.

“Since when did you become so cheesy?”

Amos laughed and replied, “It comes naturally when I see you.”

This man was obviously getting better at flirting. She simply ignored him and stood up.

“What time is it? Has Juju’s class ended?”

“Not yet, but I have already notified Auntie Valerie. She’ll bring Juju back to Clearwater Bay for a few days. I’ve also asked Charlie to assign a few men to guard the place. You don’t have to be worried about it.”

He then asked Eudora, “Are you feeling tired?”

Eudora shook her head.

“Well, let’s go and see the Old Master then!”

After saying that, Amos helped Eudora carry her things.

“Can I?” Eudora asked. In fact, she wanted to visit the Old Master from the beginning, but since she was a suspect, she didn’t want to cross the line.

Amos looked at her sparkling eyes and nodded, “Of course.”

“But, your Uncle Harry…”

“As long as I’m here, you have nothing to fear.”

Eudora wrapped her arms around Amos’ neck and said, “Thank you, Amos.”

Amos smiled faintly and replied, “Well, if you want to thank me, you could just take your time showing me your gratitude once your legs are healed…”

Eudora was speechless, “Pervert!”

When Eudora arrived downstairs, she saw Amos hustling around. Not only did he assign a driver to send her off, but he also instructed the servants to prepare a lot of broth for her.

Eudora was about to voice her objection.

However, before she could, Harry had already arrived and voiced his dissatisfaction.

“Amos, this woman is still a suspect! How dare you take her to see your father? What do you mean?”

As usual, Amos responded calmly, “Uncle Harry, it’s up to the police whether she’s a suspect in this matter. Right now, the police have not come to any conclusion so Eudora is still innocent. Have you forgotten that my father was going to hold our wedding when this happened? She’s going to marry into the family soon, so why is she not allowed to visit my father?”

Harry gritted his teeth and asked, “Amos, do you trust this woman that much?”

“Yes!” Amos nodded.

“Fine, do whatever you want then. However, if something bad were to happen to your father, don’t blame me for warning you!”

After that, Harry left angrily.

Amos then grabbed Eudora, who was in a daze, to the car, “Get into the car.”

Only when the car started moving did Eudora break out of her trance. She whispered into Amos’ ear, “You did that on purpose, didn’t you?”

Amos nodded with a smile, “You’re indeed my little fox. You’re becoming smarter and smarter.”

The driver thought that they needed some privacy, so he immediately lowered the partition. Only then did Amos whisper to her.

“We don’t have any evidence right now, but I couldn’t just sit back and take more hits. We have to make our move now.”

Eudora didn’t say a word and Amos held her hand again, “Are you scared?”

Eudora shook her head, “I’m not scared. I’m just worried that the Old Master will get dragged into this.”

“No, he won’t,” Amos reassured her.
