My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 482
Clint then went to find ways to retrieve the surveillance video of the entrance of the residential area where Gordon and Felicia lived.
Sure enough, Kesha had returned on the day of Felicia's accident.
However, the residential area was relatively old. The surveillance cameras in many other areas were faulty, except for the surveillance footage that he had retrieved.
Therefore, no other conclusion was made in the end.
However, Amos became even more uneasy because of this. He immediately ordered Clint to find Kesha as soon as possible.
At the same time, Steven was also looking for Kesha.
After checking on the technical issues with the Ferris wheel, he returned to his office, only to realize that Kesha was missing.
A deep sense of rage burned within his heart at the thought of Kesha leaving him for another man.
He made his way to Kesha's rented apartment and kicked its door open.
Kesha had rented this place and stayed here ever since they had gotten together. Steven became even more furious after realizing that the apartment was empty. "Very well, Kesha. You b*tch! How dare you treat me like this! I'll definitely kill you when I find you!"
After that, he slammed the door furiously and left.
Kesha came out from a corner in the corridor as soon as Steven left. She stared at his back and whispered, "I wonder who is who's going to die, me or you."
She had come by the apartment earlier to steal the video of Eudora that was taken by Felix previously. She didn't dare to release the video back then because she was still betting on Steven. She hoped that she could still be the President's wife of Valiant East if Steven were to rise to the occasion.
However, she thoroughly resented Steven after the incident that happened two days ago. She resented not only Steven but also Eudora and Amos.
This time, she will never be kind to those who had hurt her!
She clenched the video in her hand and immediately made a phone call.
"I have a piece of exclusive news for you! Yes! It's a video about the secret wife of Amos Granger, the President of Valiant East. In return, I ask for 50 million dollars..." Kesha said. Eudora didn't sleep well that night. She constantly had nightmares and woke up in shock, causing Amos to lose his sleep too as he slept beside her. Hence, he simply got up and went downstairs. Charlie and Wesley couldn't fall asleep as their body clocks were in a complete mess due to the nature of their work.
Both of them saw Amos coming down the stairs when they were playing games on the sofa downstairs. They instantly stood up and threw their phones on the sofa.
"Mr. Granger."
Amos disliked it whenever his men played mobile games. He always mentioned that playing games would affect one's senses and lower one's guard. Therefore, many of his subordinates didn't dare to play games in front of him.
However, both of them were caught red-handed by Amos now. They could only imagine what kind of punishment they would have to receive next.
However, Amos didn't even look at them and merely walked towards the shelf in front of the living room.
Both of them looked at each other in disbelief. They thought that they were doomed! However this time, President Granger was not angry, nor did he scold anyone. Instead, he turned a blind eye to them! This should be the worst of all punishments, right? Was that why they were ignored?
Charlie thought for a while and took a step forward in distress.
"President Granger, we know our mistake. We won't do it again. Please don't ignore us."
Amos remained silent and spoke in a still voice.
"Aromatherapy."
Charlie trembled. He asked, "President Granger, you don't really mean it, do you?"
In their industry, in order to test one's willpower, a few extreme methods would be executed as a test of resistance.
For example, the aromatherapy that was mentioned by Amos may sound wonderful but in actuality, it was a horrendous and torturous way that would be carried out in a very hot room that had a temperature of at least 50 degrees. The smell of burned wormwood herbs would then be released into the room.
It would be impossible for them to survive if they were to stay in this room for even half an hour during the summer. They would be suffocated to death even if they didn't die from the heat.
"President Granger, do you really have to be so cruel? We know that it's our fault! I'd rather run 50 laps outside..."
Wesley also nodded and continued, "President Granger..."
Amos twisted his eyebrows and said, "The aromatherapy with sedative effect..."
Charlie cried, "President Granger, even if you don't like the fact that we're awake late at night, you don't need to punish us to this extent!"
Amos was speechless. "I'm asking if there's an essential oil with sedative effect for aromatherapy at home. I don't think that Eudora has been sleeping very well."
The corners of Charlie's mouth were twitched in shock as he asked, "Oh, is it for Mrs. Granger?" It turned out that the reason he had come downstairs in the middle of the night wasn't actually to catch them. He was trying to find some essential oil for his wife!
Ugh! This public display of affection!
"Is it not because we were playing games?" Wesley shouted.
The next second, Amos narrowed his eyes and questioned, "Were you guys playing games in the middle of the night?"
It was at this moment, Wesley wished that he had slapped his mouth shut! Amos didn't even realize that they were playing games after such a long time!
They had been totally ignored...
"No, we..."
The next second, Amos picked up his phone and looked at the game. As soon as he saw the name of the game, his cold expression eased up instantly too. "Eudora likes this game too."
Wesley and Charlie gave a sigh of relief. They were so grateful that they wanted to thank Eudora immensely at that very moment.
It turned out that everything that was related to Mrs. Granger would get them out of trouble. Mrs. Granger was truly their savior!
In order to show their sincerity and appreciation, both of them rushed to help Amos get a bottle of lavender essential oil.
"I remember Cindy saying previously that this has a sedative effect."
Amos took over the lavender essential oil and headed upstairs.
After two steps, he seemed to have thought about something and said again.
"Both of you, run twenty laps before going back to sleep. That is for playing games in the middle of the night!"
Charlie was stunned.
"Mr. Granger, does Mrs. Granger know that you are such an ungrateful person?" he lamented in his heart.
Eudora hadn't been sleeping well. All of a sudden, her nose itched and she sneezed. At that moment, she woke up from her sleep.
Amos didn't turn on the lights when he went out of the room. Hence, it was very dark in the room. She subconsciously touched the place beside her, only to find that it was empty.
Her heart instantaneously sank. She shouted in a trembling voice, "Amos..."
At that moment, she was truly afraid. She even thought that she was already dead. Otherwise, why couldn't she see Amos when she had woken up?
She still had so many things that she had yet to tell Amos. How could she die just like that?
She instantly felt a lump in her throat and her eyes gradually turned red.
She disliked behaving in such a manner. She didn't like to cry all the time. However, she just couldn't help it!
As soon as Amos heard her voice, he ran up hastily and turned on the lights.
At first glance, he saw Eudora sitting on the bed with tears in her eyes. She had curled up into a ball and holding herself tightly with both hands.
She was like a little rabbit that was filled with fear. He felt his heart aching and he hurried forward to hug her.
"Eudora, what's wrong?"
His familiar scent instantly surrounded Eudora. She quickly tightened her hug around Amos' neck.
"Amos, I don't want to leave you."
She had woken up countless times in the middle of the night. She asked herself repeatedly in her heart, "Why me? I am so lucky to meet the best man in the world. Why can't God spare me a bit more time?"
