Only after Eudora helped Amos change his bandage, did she realize that he was awake.
She got frightened, jumped up, and took a step back.
âYour wound was inflamed, so I helped change the gauzeâ¦â
He didnât say a word and looked at the medicine on the table.
She explained hurriedly, âThese are from Doctor Leon, youâ¦â
Before she could finish, Amos took the medicine and put them into his mouth. Eudora wanted to hand him a glass of water, but he swallowed the pills directly.
âYou can leave now! Iâve taken the medicine!â With that, he stood up and walked to the door.
He was obviously kicking her out!
Only at that moment did she realize she had no reason to stay. She wanted to say something, but Amos beat her to it.
âAre you going to say that you want to stay here to monitor how Iâm doing? Miss George, this is what we call two-timing, do you understand?â
Eudoraâs face turned pale, and the corner of her mouth twitched.
âSorry, Iâm leaving now!â
She took her bag and turned to leave. It was not until her back disappeared that Amos reluctantly looked away.
He reached out to touch his forehead, where Eudora bandaged his wound. His throat felt an itch, and he coughed once again.
He wanted to go back to work, but his stomach felt a little unwell. Hence, he sat on the sofa again and buried himself underneath the pillows.
â¦
When Eudora was leaving, she couldnât help but think of how seriously ill Amos was. In the end, she could not endure it and called Tina.
It was only after Tina picked up that she thought of ranting to her.
âEudora, I was scared to death earlier. President Granger and Harley were quarrelingâ¦â
Eudora roughly understood and interrupted her. âIsnât it dangerous to leave Amos alone at home since you left after your argument?â
Tina was stunned. âWell, that could be true! Then Iâll get Christopher to bring me back and take a lookâ¦â
Eudora heaved a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to hang up, Tina suddenly spoke.
âEudora, you are still very concerned about Mr. Granger, arenât you? Please tell me that there is more to this.â
âTina!â Eudora shouted at her. âOnly you and I know about this and I hope for it to stay that way. There are a lot of things that we canât do even when we want to! Please take care of Amos for me! Thank you!â
After that, Eudora hung up.
She was really worried she wouldnât be able to refrain from spilling everything. If that happened, the Nolan family would not be her only enemy. The Holts would also be a nemesis too, and Eudora truly did not want such a thing.
She stood where she was and calmed herself down. Only then did Eudora start to walk around the back of the villa once more and walk towards the Holt Manor.
What Eudora didnât know was, not far behind her, Fabian, who was on his way to the Holt Manor, heard Eudoraâs phone call expressing her concerns for Amos.
Fabian sat in the car, with a heavy expression on his face.
Fabianâs assistant, who was in the car as well, had not seen Fabian so angry for a long time.
âMr. Nolan, are we still going to Holt Manor?â the assistant enquired.
Fabian scoffed coldly and ordered, âTurn around!â
Hearing that, the assistant hurriedly informed the driver, âTurn around, pleaseâ¦â
After a short while, Callum, who had been silent beside Fabian, suddenly said, âMr. Nolan, Iâm guessing youâre not planning for me to meet Mr. Holt anymore?! But itâs fine. I heard that you also found out about that day. It was Amos who brought Miss George back the night she disappeared in the mountains!â
Fabian didnât say anything, and Callum continued.
âForget it. I shouldnât chide you. Just like me, youâre having a hard time.â
Indeed, that was true. Since Fabian hired Waldron and the others back to the company, Callum intended to lead the entire Nolan Group to greater heights.
However, he never expected Waldron and those b*stards to have the ability to take control of more than half of the Nolan Group.
Malcom trusted them at first. He had been through blood, sweat, and tears for many years, so he wanted to live a peaceful life at present. But then he realized that it was impossible.
Right now, the Nolan father and son duo had to handle business according to how Waldron wanted it. Fabian had agreed to Tyler arranging his relationship with Eudora largely because Fabian wanted to rely on the Holtsâ influence to deal with Waldron.
Therefore, Fabian deliberately proposed to Eudora at the bonfire to provoke Amos and make him quit. Unexpectedly, Eudora was still contacting Amos even though things had reached this point.
Fabianâs face became more gloomy, âDonât worry, I know what to do.â
â¦
After the phone call, Tina reminded Christopher to check on Amos. Although Harley was very furious, deep down, he was still concerned about Amos.
After hearing from Tina, Harley also returned with Thea.
Christopher knew the close friendship between Harley and Amos, hence, he stayed in the living room with Tina. Under Theaâs urging, Harley entered the study.
Harley started speaking awkwardly when he came to face Amos.
âSorry, I shouldnât have said that to you earlier!â
Amos didnât say a word. He had been lying on the sofa with his eyes closed since the beginning.
Harley scoffed angrily after looking at how Amos was ignoring him, âCome on, Amos. Weâre good friends. So what if Iâve said a few things about you? Besides, youâre really too stubborn. No one stops taking medicine to torture themselvesâ¦â
Before he could finish, Harley saw the empty medicine box on the table.
Then he raised his eyebrows. âI was wrong, okay? I didnât know you cared so much about me. You took medicine after fighting with me! I was wrong, and I wonât fight with you anymore⦠Amos?â
Amos frowned wearily. âShut up!â
Harley laughed and said, âFine, Iâll shut up! Iâm telling you, I was really angry just now, I almost went back to Rosaville City. Thank God we are good friends. Before I left, I received a message from Rosaville City, saying that the Greene City police station transferred me here. I havenât reported for work yet! Hey, Amos, why do you look so unwell?â
Suddenly, Amos was clutching his stomach as he realized something. âDid you take the medication without having a meal? Amos! Youâre a fool! Donât you realize that you havenât eaten for two days? How could you take the medication on an empty stomach?!â
After that, Harley immediately helped Amos up. âGet up, Iâll take you to the hospital.â
Amos did not move. âIâm not going!â
âDonât be stubborn anymore! If something bad happens to you, Juju and Sugar Bun would lose their father! Also, would you want to leave behind the woman you miss so much?â
Amos frowned and said, âYouâre so annoying! Iâm hungry. Just go and cook for me!â
Harley was flabbergasted by Amosâs behaviour.
âWhat did I do to owe you so much?!â He said as he turned and walked out. However, he immediately thought of something and turned back.
âSure, Iâll cook. But first, tell me, why did you suddenly take the medication? I donât believe it was for me!â
