Chapter 532: Chapter 532 Why Had Mom Abandon Me

Helen was immersed in her own beautiful imagination. Only after her father pulled her away from Amos that she finally snapped out of her reverie.

Doctor Leon scanned around in a hurry. Fortunately, there was no one else in the room. Amos, on the other hand, was still in a coma, and he did not have any means to defend himself.

Otherwise, his daughter probably would have lost her life and no longer standing in front of him.

Doctor Leon reproached her in a deep voice.

“Are you out of your mind? Who asked you to come in here?”

At first, Helen was a little embarrassed because her father had chanced upon this scene. However, she began to feel a little resentful after hearing her father’s admonishment.

“Dad, why can’t I be here?”

“Of course you can’t! Don’t you know who is lying on the bed there? It’s Amos! He isn’t someone to be trifled with! If he knows that you have done such a thing, he will kill you!”

Helen was a little upset. “Mr. Granger isn’t that brutal!”

Doctor Leon was really angry, and he regretted recommending his daughter to treat Eudora at the beginning!

If he had known that this would happen, he wouldn’t have asked Helen to come!

“You are too naive! You’d better go back right now.”

Helen frowned. “Dad, I’m not going back. Miss George has abandoned Mr. Granger and left. He’s suffering from insurmountable psychological distress.”

Doctor Leon was taken aback. “What did you say? Did Eudora abandon him?”

“You heard right!” Helen nodded. “Mr. Granger just said it himself. That’s why I stayed here to take care of him!”

“It’s unnecessary for you to do so. His distress is insurmountable, but it’s not something that you can cure. Get out!”

“Dad…” Helen was still unwilling to give up.

“Am I still your father? I asked you to get out right now! And you must not come back to this ward in the future!”

Helen had always respected Doctor Leon. Even though she was unhappy, she still respected his words and left the ward unwillingly.

Doctor Leon took a worried look at Amos after Helen left. Amos must have had a nightmare just now, but now he seemed slightly pacified.

Doctor Leon gave him a quick check-up, but Amos had woken up before he was done.

Sensing that there was people around him, he almost sat up in an instant. “Eudora…”

Doctor Leon’s heart skipped a beat, silently glad that he had driven Helen away in the nick of time. He knew that with the steadfast loyalty of the men in the Granger family, even if Eudora did leave, Amos still wouldn’t give up so easily.

Furthermore, Eudora was deeply in love with Amos. There seemed to be something fishy about all that had happened.

“It’s me!” Doctor Leon said.

Doctor Leon could sense the disappointment in Amos’ eyes. “Doctor Leon.”

“Yes?” Doctor Leon nodded, but Amos was already trying to get up from the bed.

Doctor Leon advised him hurriedly, “You’d better stay put. Your body has suffered a lot. If you push yourself further, even God might not be able to save you!”

Amos’ lips twitched, “Aren’t you the God in this context?”

Doctor Leon was speechless. “You brat, don’t you know your own condition? How could you still have the energy to joke with an old man like me? I know that you are in a bad mood, but no matter what, your health is the most important! If something bad were to happen to you, Eudora would definitely look for me!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Doctor Leon was seized with a desire to slap himself.

He really was getting old. Helen had just said that Amos had been abandoned by Eudora. Wasn’t he courting death by mentioning Eudora now?

Just as he was thinking about the most appropriate apology, Amos sat down again on the bed.

“How long do I need to stay here?”

Why was he so obedient all of a sudden? Was this man before him the Amos Granger whom he knew all these years? Doctor Leon felt as though he was hallucinating.

“You brat. You’re so obedient all of a sudden. I’m really not used to it.”

Amos’ lips twitched again and he said, “I have promised her that I’ll exercise and keep my body strong!”

“What?” Doctor Leon didn’t understand. Amos shook his head and said, “Nothing! Tell me clearly, how long I have to stay here, and what should I do to recover my strength?”

Although Doctor Leon didn’t know the reason for Amos’ strange behavior, he still felt relieved. After all, Amos’ obedience would definitely save him a lot of trouble. Hence, he said directly, “We’ll have to at least observe you for another night, and we’ll see what could we do tomorrow.”

Amos then rested himself on his bed.

Doctor Leon smiled and said, “That’s good. I’ll ask someone to bring you dinner later.”

Amos thought of Juju after Doctor Leon left. He recalled that Juju had come back from abroad before he collapsed.

He made a phone call to Wesley, who was almost on the verge of crying on the other side.

“Mr. Granger, you’re finally awake! Miss Juju has been drawing in the garden downstairs and she refused to leave. I’m so worried about her. She hasn’t said a word since she came back.”

Amos’s heart skipped a beat as he recalled how Juju had not spoken to him after going through that traumatic experience in the past.

He hurried to open the door and trotted downstairs.

It was already late into the night and there was no one in the garden. From a distance, he saw a lonely and thin figure sitting in front of a drawing board.

A gust of wind blew her hair, making her look even lonelier.

Amos frowned and walked over slowly. His daughter was throwing a tantrum at this time, and he was actually a little angered by it.

However, when he saw Juju’s drawing board, his eyes suddenly turned red.

It was a drawing of a family of four. They were holding each other’s hands and smiling together.

Even Amos, a grown-up man, couldn’t stand the sight. Wesley, who was next to him, was already crying. Miss Juju was too pitiful.

Amos took a deep breath, composed himself, and walked over to hold Juju’s hand.

“Good girl, it’s getting late now. Shall we head back?”

Juju suddenly raised her head. When she saw Amos, Juju, who had been holding back for the whole afternoon, finally pursed her lips and started crying.

“Daddy, am I not good enough? Is that why Mommy doesn’t want me anymore?”

Amos felt a prick in his chest as he shook his head.

“No, it’s not because you’re not good enough. It’s because your Mommy has her own reasons to do that.”

Juju didn’t understand, and she didn’t know what reasons her mother would have to do such a thing.

“But Uncle Clint said that Mommy dislikes us…”

Amos’ face darkened. “Don’t listen to other people’s nonsense. We have to believe in your Mommy! Juju, have you forgotten what I’d told you? No matter what, Juju and I will protect Mommy and Sugar Bun together!”

Juju nodded. “Yes!”

Amos put away Juju’s drawing and asked Wesley to bring her upstairs. He then called Clint on the phone.

“Where are you? Get to the hospital immediately.”
