Chapter 470: Chapter 470 It Is My Responsibility

It seemed that even Eudora herself had realized it. She then loosened her grip slightly. “I’m sorry, I’m just too anxious!”

Amos merely shook his head and replied with a forced smile.

“I’m the one to be blamed.”

He looked really upset. Eudora paused for a moment and said, “Why don’t you come over and touch him? He just moved.”

Amos did not move, but Eudora took the initiative to reach out, pull his hand and place it on her belly.

The next second, the little guy in her belly seemed to be responding to the touch. It kicked towards Amos’ palm.

“It’s moving!” Eudora said with a smile on her face.

Amos nodded and replied, “Ah!”

He wanted to be happy, but with the thought of Eudora’s imminent suffering in his mind, he really couldn’t force a smile.

…

Harley rushed over later in the evening.

Thea came along with him too as she was worried about Eudora. After all, they were both expectant mothers, hence she could understand Eudora’s dilemma. After exchanging greetings, Harley and Amos left the ward.

Harley was first to speak, “I’ve checked everyone who came to the banquet that day. Most of them are my relatives and friends. There were only two people who appeared without an invitation…”

Harley glanced at Amos. The next second, both of them said the same names at the same time.

“Steven and Kesha.”

“Exactly!” Harley nodded and said, “I did not invite both of them. It was very odd for them to appear out of nowhere. I too felt strange at first. However, since they are your brother and Eudora’s sister, I had no reason to not let them in. But did they really do it? Isn’t that pretty dumb of them?”

It was as though they were walking right into a trap despite knowing the consequences.

Amos remained silent. He had something else on his mind.

Harley knew that he would remain quiet whenever he had something on his mind, hence he didn’t say a word and just let him be.

However, Harley was not idle either. He was muttering, “Let’s say we put aside Steven and Kesha for the moment. The only people left at the scene are the waiters. However, those waiters were all experienced senior waiters of Rosaville Hotel. At that time, I was worried about Thea’s health. Therefore, I asked the person-in-charge of the hotel to assign all the senior staff for the banquet to ensure minimal mistakes. By right, there is no reason for such a thing to happen.”

“Kesha!” Amos exclaimed suddenly, “Start investigating her first!”

Harley raised his eyebrows and asked, “Why would you suspect her?”

Amos didn’t say anything. He just remembered that Kesha had been acting strangely recently, but he could tell that she was trying to catch his attention all of a sudden. At first, he thought that Kesha and Steven just wanted to pull another prank on him.

However, from the looks of it, that didn’t seem to be the case.

Amos had always known that Kesha was not a good person. It was certainly possible for her to do such a terrible thing to Eudora just so that she could attract his attention.

Harley was shocked and he blurted out upon seeing Amos’ darkened expression, “No way? Did she try to…”

“Shut up!” Amos stopped him immediately.

Harley snorted, “I guess it’s not a good thing for a man to be so handsome after all!”

Amos rolled his eyes at him, effectively shutting Harley up.

All of a sudden, they heard the sound of heavy metal falling on the ground coming from the ward. Amos felt a chill in his spine and ran to the ward frantically.

Doctor Leon stopped them as soon as they arrived at the door.

“It would be better if you stay out here for the moment. Doctor Chilton is giving Eudora her first injection now…”

Just as he finished speaking, they heard the sound of Eudora crying in pain.

Amos’ heart sank. He disregarded Doctor Leon’s advice, opened the door, and rushed in.

Eudora’s first injection was through the pelvis on her back.

Her baby bump was already very big and it wasn’t convenient for her to lie on the bed, hence she could only lie on her side.

The two nurses, who were next to her, held her hand tightly. She was in so much pain that her whole body was trembling. She was about to cry out again.

However, when she saw Amos, she clenched her teeth and refused to make a sound.

Even when she met Amos’ worried gaze, she still smiled at him. Her smile, however, looked bitter.

Amos suddenly recalled the first time when he met Eudora. That time, she was in a daze because she had been drugged.

In order not to be humiliated, she was brave enough to pick up a piece of glass fragment to stab herself back to sense.

She had always been brave, especially after becoming a mother.

At this moment, the nurse on the side spoke loudly, “Give me a clean handkerchief quickly for the patient to bite on. It will be terrible if she bites her tongue!”

Thea, who was accompanying her at the side, was frightened by Eudora’s painful expression. When she heard this, she couldn’t respond for a while.

Amos’ heart skipped a beat. He then walked towards Eudora immediately.

The next second, he put his clean finger into Eudora’s mouth without hesitation.

Eudora shook her head in pain and refused, “No…”

“It’s okay!” Amos shouted. At this moment, the doctor began to inject the medicine again. It hurt so much that in an instant, trails of sweat rolled down her cheeks.

She couldn’t bear the pain anymore and she bit Amos’ finger firmly.

Thea, who was at the side, looked at this scene in astonishment. She was extremely shocked. However, Amos showed no expression at all.

After what felt like a century, the doctor finally finished injecting the medicine.

Eudora’s entire body was covered with sweat. Helen, who had followed them in, was shocked when she saw that Amos’ finger was in Eudora’s mouth.

“Mr. President Granger…”

Amos removed his finger from Eudora’s mouth calmly. At a glance, he could see a row of teeth marks dented deeply on his finger.

He could almost see the bloodstains.

“How did it end up like this? I’m going to find some gauze and bandage it for you…”.

“That would be unnecessary!” Amos responded. He ignored his injured finger and used his other arm to wipe the sweat on Eudora’s forehead away.

“Does it still hurt?

His heart ached tremendously for her.

If possible, he wanted to go through this pain for her instead. That way, she would not have to suffer.

Eudora regained her consciousness gradually as she was no longer in pain. When she heard Helen talking about Amos’ finger, she grabbed his arm quickly.

“Show it to me.”

Amos shook his head. “I’m fine!”

“No! Let me see it!” Eudora insisted. She looked worried. Amos knew that she would keep dwelling on it if he refused to let her see it.

All he could do was to rub his finger secretly to dissolve the blood clot before showing it to her.

“See, it’s fine, isn’t it?” Amos asked.

The next second, tears streamed down Eudora’s face.

“Did I do this to you? The marks are so deep…”

Amos wiped her tears hastily and comforted her, “You are Sugar Bun’s mother. You are willing to bear this immense pain for Sugar Bun. I am Sugar Bun’s father It’s my responsibility and this is the least I could do for you and Sugar Bun.”
