As Eudora arrived at Fabianâs room, Malcom just happened to bring his men in as well, Hence, Eudora conveniently followed them in.
Fortunately, the situation was not serious.
Malcom did not blame Eudora at all, but before he left, he let two of them have their time and asked Eudora to chat with Fabian for a while.
Eudora stood there awkwardly. After Malcom left, she apologized to Fabian.
âSorry, Juju is still a kid, she didnât mean to do it. Iâve already reprimanded her. She wonât do it again!â
Fabian shook his head. âItâs not your problem actually. Besides, Juju is very clever. I like her very much!â
Eudora breathed a sigh of relief. She was really worried. If Fabian didnât let Juju off the hook, as a child, she might get traumatized from this incident.
âThen⦠please have a good rest. Iâll go first!â
Fabian stopped her again and said, âUmâ¦Â I heard that there will be a bonfire party in the hills tomorrow. Letâs go and see it together!â
Eudora subconsciously wanted to reject him, but then she thought it would seem harsh if she was here to apologize yet reject his invitation so bluntly.
Out of consideration for his feelings, she nodded and agreed, âAlright!â
However, she had to get even with that cheeky little Juju when she went back!
But when she returned, she didnât expect Juju to have washed herself up obediently and was cuddling Sugar Bun to sleep. Looking at the two chubby children on the bed, the fury in Eudoraâs heart dissipated at once.
Eudora sighed silently, then reached out to take the quilt to cover the two children. She then lay down beside them, but she couldnât fall asleep.
Juju had always been a sensible child. There must be a reason for her unreasonable behavior this time. Hence, Eudora mulled over Jujuâs questions in her mind.
âDo you really like Uncle Nolan? You used to only be this nervous for Daddy.â
Eudora was a little shocked. She had always thought that it was best to leave her two children and Amos. But she didnât expect her children to be disturbed by it.
If Juju was affected because of these family problems, what should Eudora do?
While she was thinking, her cell phone rang next to the bed.
The sharp ringtone was particularly loud in the quiet night. Afraid of waking the children up, Eudora declined the call without even checking who was the caller.
Lying on the bed, Sugar Bun twitched because of the ringtone. Eudora hurriedly reached out to hold him in her arms, giving him a warm sense of security.
She didnât expect that she would fall asleep inhaling the sweet baby-like scent from his little body.
â¦
On the other side, Amos was very worried after hearing from Juju that Eudora had been injured. After contacting Clint, he drove his car to the direction of the holiday resort.
In fact, even if he didnât want to admit it, he had already checked where they were going when he saw Eudora and the others head out that day.
However, he kept telling himself that it had nothing to do with him. That was why he had been forcing himself to pretend that he knew nothing about it.
On the way, he received a call from Clint mentioning that he had Doctor Leon arranged and asked for the address.
After hanging up, Amos became more worried. Finally, he dialed Eudoraâs number. However, she didnât answer.
He was still very distressed and hence did not notice a big tree on the side of the road ahead. Because of the earlier thunderstorm, the branches had fallen off the tree.
He was driving quite fast, and it was too late for him to avoid the branches. Immediately, his car windshield was smashed by a branch, and his head started bleedingâ¦
He looked at himself in the rearview mirror⦠And could not help but laugh bitterly.
â¦
Clint followed behind Amos as he wanted to pick up Doctor Leon. Fortunately, Doctor Leon had been on a business trip in Greene City recently. He quickly rushed over after receiving the notice.
On the way, they saw Amosâs car ahead, which had skidded across the road. Hurriedly, Clint rushed over to Amosâs car, only to find that Amosâs face was covered with blood.
âPresident Granger, are you okay?â
Amos breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was Clint, âIs Doctor Leon here?â
âYes, he is! Please get down first. Weâll bandage your wound for you!â
Amos shook his head. âDonât worry about me. You two go first, Iâll follow laterâ¦â
âDonât be ridiculous!â Doctor Leon exclaimed. âHow could I be at ease seeing your current situation? Let me have a look at you first!â
However, Amos was stubborn and refused to cooperate with Doctor Leon. Hence, Doctor Leon had no choice but to warn Amos, âDo you want to scare Juju and Miss George to death? If you think itâs okay, then I wonât bother!â
After that, Doctor Leon smugly got in the car.
Amos finally stopped him and said, âDoctor Leon, pleaseâ¦â
Doctor Leon sighed, âYou rascal. Youâre only obedient when Iâm angry, every single time!â
Doctor Leonâs medical kit was ready in his car as he was on his way to treat a patient. He first checked on Amos. Fortunately, only the lower part of his forehead was slashed by the tree branch.
The bleeding was heavy, but it was not a deep wound. Doctor Leon took a bandage out and said, âIâll bandage the wound first. Donât move.â
Amos didnât move. Only when Doctor Leon held a thick bandage and was ready to wrap his head like a mummy, he utteredâ¦
âUse a smaller bandage!â
Doctor Leon was so angry that he asked, âAm I the doctor or are you the doctor?â
Amos ignored him and repeated, âA smaller bandage!â
Clint looked on anxiously and said, âDoctor Leon, you know President Grangerâs temper. Forget it, youâd better cooperate as much as possible!â
Doctor Leon sighed, âIt seems I really owed the Granger family in my previous life!â
He then used a smaller bandage to wrap Amosâ wound again. Amos looked at the mirror several times to confirm that no one could see it, only then he handed the damaged car to Clint.
âTake the car back. Iâll go with Doctor Leon!â
Clint was completely dumbfounded by the scene.
â¦
Amos and Doctor Leon finally arrived at the resort when the sun was about to rise.
But they found that the resort was not open to the public, so they couldnât go in at all.
Doctor Leon glanced at the furthest ends of the resort and could not help but say, âIf what the staff here said is true, Eudora came here together with Tyler and the Nolan family. If she is really injured, Tyler would not leave her be! Amos, letâs go back! Weâd better take an X-ray of your head injury to check for concussions.â
The corners of Amosâs mouth twitched. He understood Doctor Leon, but was still worried about Eudora. He was concerned as there was a possibility of her being injured.
Perhaps, he had an illness⦠And that was, the inability to let go.
