Amos was incredibly strong.
As soon as he pulled the man away, he screamed in pain, âIt hurts, it hurts!â
Amos said with bloodshot eyes, âSo you do know what pain is? Have you ever thought about that while you were beating him up? Have you ever thought that the person youâre beating up might feel pain as well?â
âAre you Amos Granger?â
The man was stunned for a moment and then shouted again.
Then, he shouted again, âLook, everyone, Amos Granger is here! Itâs him who conspired with Harley Louis. We donât know how much money he has scammed out of us! Come on everyone, beat them to death!â
âWho here dares to do that?â Amos gritted his teeth.
Amos was one that eluded a charismatic vibe, but now that he was incredibly enraged, he looked even more terrifying. As a result, some people got scared away.
The rest of the crowd were also stunned, and they no longer dared to act rashly.
Amos shook the man off and tried to hold Harley up.
The man blocked his way again. âYou canât just leave. People like you have done many evil deeds. After you leave, we donât know what else you would do to make ordinary people like us suffer. You must give us an explanation!â
Amos sneered, âMake you all suffer? Do you have any evidence of my wrongdoing?â
âEverything had been recorded in the video. Thatâs the evidence!â
âHow is that considered evidence? I want solid, hard evidence!â
âYouâre shameless! The video snowed everything clearly, so how could it not be considered as evidence?â
As he said that, he tried to pull Harley away, but tugged too hard, accidentally touching Harleyâs wound, which caused more blood to flow from his body.
Amosâ anger spiked till its peak.
He kicked that person away and demanded, âGet out of my way!â
The man sat on the ground and shouted again, âHe hit me! The evil businessman that conspired with the police hit me! He hit me out of anger! Everyone, come and see!â
Amos sneered. He put Harley down and walked slowly towards the man.
âAre you saying that I hit you? That I did it of anger?â
âYes, I did. Didnât you do exactly just that? You hit me out of anger, which means that what weâve said is true!â
âIs that so?â Amos said coldly. âSince you want to be beaten up so badly, should I help you fulfill that wish?â
Upon hearing his words, the man was stunned, âWhat did you just say?â
Amos did not say anything else because his punch had already proven his words.
This time, Amos used all his strength to return every punch the protestors had made on Harleyâs body.
His punches were so powerful that the people next to him did not even dare to hold him back.
Harleyâs colleagues, who witnessed Harvey being beaten, were aggravated. The leader of them frowned as he shouted, âAmos, stop it!â
Amos gritted his teeth and said, âItâs me whoâs beating him up, so itâs none of your business!â
After that, he gave the man one last kick before turning around.
He proclaimed, âRemember, my name is Amos Granger! I was the one who hit you! If you want to get even with me, come straight at me!â
â¦
In the hospital, as Amos and Eudora were waiting for Harley. Thea came rushing in from outside.
âHow is Harley? Is he alright?â
She was panting, and it was obvious that she had run all the way to the hospital. Eudora had not even dared to inform her about the matter as she was afraid that Thea would grow worried. After all, she was pregnant. Eudora did not expect for Thea to come running into the hospital on her own.
She hurriedly supported Thea.
She said in a low voice, âHeâs okay. Heâs being given emergency treatment. However, Iâve spoken with the doctor and he said that Harley didnât sustain any major injuries, so donât worry!â
How could Thea feel at ease? However, with Eudoraâs comfort, she became a little calmer.
The door of the emergency room was pushed open and the doctor came out.
He informed them, âHeâs alright! Heâs just suffering a slight fracture and some minor injuries. Fortunately, the patient had protected his vital organs the entire time!â
After the doctor finished speaking, the nurse pushed Harley out from the emergency room.
Harley, ever the vain one, had been beaten up till his entire face had swelled up. If it wasnât for the doctorâs words confirming that he was Harley, Thea would probably not be able to recognize him.
âHarley!â Thea shouted.
Harley opened his eyes in a trance and said, âDonât worry, Iâm okay! Our child hasnât been born yet, and Cutie Pieâs illness hasnât fully recovered yet. I wonât die so easily!â
Thea nodded. When she was about to push Harley into the ward, several policemen came in.
They went straight towards Amos and stood in front of him. One of them said, âMr. Granger, youâve been suspected of publicly beating someone up. We need you to follow us back to the station to assist with the investigation!â
Eudora was taken aback and asked, âAmos, what is this about?â
Amos shook his head as he replied, âItâs not a big deal. Iâll go and take a look. Iâll be back soon.â
âWait a minute!â Harley said weakly.
âWhat the hell is going on?â
Harleyâs colleagues were the ones who had come to the hospital to catch Amos. Upon hearing their words, he explained the situation in an awkward manner.
âWeâre reluctant to do this as well, but Mr. Granger has indeed beaten someone up while you were passed out. Thus, we must take him back for questioning!â
Harley frowned and said, âYou shouldnât have helped me.â
Harley felt a little regretful. He should have listened to Morgan and cut off his ties with Amos. That way, Amos would not have hit someone to save him.
âWhat are you babbling on about?â Amos laughed. âHave you forgotten what we said to each other when we first met? Best buddies are supposed to experience happiness and misfortune together! Do you think that Iâll just walk away when I see you being beaten?â
âD*mn it!â Harley struggled to look up. âAll this has happened because of me. Iâll help him out!â
âBoss, youâve lost your mind!â
His colleague shouted, âDonât you know that if a law enforcer breaks the law, his punishment will be doubled?â
âHa!â Harley sneered. âSo what? I didnât break the law, yet Iâve still ended up like this!â
âBoss!â His colleague earnestly shouted. âThe director is also furious about this matter, but thereâs no other way. The director has tried his best. You can rest assured that the director will serve justice for you.â
âThe man who hit you just now has been detained. We will now take Mr. Granger for questioning. Donât worry, weâll definitely find a way to protect Mr. Granger!â
âI donât believe you!â Harley shook his head.
âEnough!â Amos pursed his lips. âEven if you donât trust them, you should trust me. Do you think Iâll let myself suffer?â
Although Eudora was worried, she also knew that with Harleyâs current situation, it was impossible for him to go with them. She could only stand by Amosâs side and try to advise him.
âHarley, you canât do this! Heâs my husband, so how can you be more worried about him than I am? Iâm starting to grow suspicious about your relationship!â
âEudoraâ¦â Harley pursed his lips.
âAlright, let it go. Iâll keep Amos safe and sound! Iâm more dependent on him than you are!â
After that, Amos turned around and left with a few policemen.
Eudoraâs heart was in turmoil as she looked at Amosâs back. With those two matters being linked together, it was impossible for her not to think that there was someone pulling strings!
However, who was the mastermind?
For Amosâ sake, she must find that person.
Since that person dared to harm Amos, she would not let them go so easily!
Eudora thought about it and immediately followed Thea to the ward.
Harley was not feeling too well, thus he fell asleep in the ward right away.
Eudora dragged Thea out of the room and asked, âThea, think about it. What enemies do Harley have?
