My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 586

Amos couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he turned around and left.

Eudora had no idea that Fabian would suddenly propose marriage to her that way. This was totally unexpected!

The crowd's chanting flowed into her ears. "Say yes! Say yes!"

Inexplicably, Eudora remembered the day when she and Amos got married. There wasn't any ceremony on that day...

It was a very ordinary day.

But she felt happy, and they went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the marriage certificate, just like other ordinary, blessed couples.

Everything was just so normal, and there was no excitement like what was happening at present. However, the memories of that day remained fresh in her mind, regardless of how much time had passed. Eudora felt that she would never forget that day!

Shaking her head, she embarrassedly apologized and then ran out of the crowd.

Fabian frowned, and his subordinate hurriedly said, "Mr. Nolan, I'm going to get Miss George back!"

Fabian pursed his lips, "Leave her!"

He took a look at the position where Amos had been standing before and immediately, he sneered.

After Eudora ran away, her heart was in a mess. She knew that she shouldn't have refused Fabian in front of so many people. If Tyler misunderstood Eudora's intentions, it would be unfavorable for Amos and the two children.

But it was very difficult for Eudora to say yes. There was someone else in her heart, so how could she agree to marry Fabian?

Eudora thought about it as she walked aimlessly. When she finally came to her senses, she had already walked into the forest.

She couldn't hear the commotion from the bonfire at all, and started to panic. Relying on her instincts, she followed the way where she came from, only to find that she had returned to the original spot! She finally realized that she was lost.

This mountain forest she was in was quite far away from the resort. And it had not been developed, and hence there would be all sorts of creatures lurking around.

When she was in the basement previously, Eudora was frightened by the rats. Rats were her biggest fear!

Thinking of this, Eudora's heart started to race. She hurriedly reached for her phone, only to find that it had run out of battery.

She had forgotten to charge it the night before.

Back at the bonfire, Fabian exited the dance floor after Eudora ran away, while Malcom and Tyler comforted him. They patted his shoulders while saying... "Eudora is not ready yet, don't blame her."

Fabian smiled and said, "It's okay, it was too sudden of me." Initially, the proposal was his idea in the spur of the moment.

Thinking of Amos, Fabian's lips curled.

Amos was such a proud man. If he saw Fabian proposing to Eudora, Amos would definitely not back off from such a provocation, would he?

Just as Fabian was thinking about it, the assistant who was following Eudora just now came back and announced, "Sir, Miss George is missing!"

Fabian was stunned. "What did you say? Didn't I ask you to pay attention to her? How could she be lost?"

The assistant hurriedly bowed his head. "We were following her, but when we were in the woods, the branches were very dense, and we lost her after a short while!"

Tyler glanced at the two sleeping children and said, "Quick, get some men to search for her!"

Fabian nodded and began to instruct the search in the mountains. The rest of them sent Tyler and the children back to the hotel.

After that, Fabian also followed the search party.

In the mountains, after Eudora walked around for a while, she was cut by sharp branches and her legs began to bleed.

She dared not walk around and could only wait for help to come.

Suddenly, there was a small cracking sound behind her, which made Eudora's hairs stand on end. She remembered the big pythons that her family used to talk about when she was a child. They usually lived in this kind of terrain.

She slowly stood up and didn't dare to look back, limping while quickening her steps.

She had just taken two steps when a pair of big hands grabbed her arm. "It's me!"

Eudora was stunned. Under the moonlight, she looked at the person chasing after her. It was Amos?

In the morning, she heard that Amos came with Doctor Leon to look for her. "Hasn't he left? Why is he still here?" she thought.

"Why are you here?" she demanded.

Amos didn't say anything. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at her ankle. "You got injured?"

Eudora pursed her lips, "No..."

The next second, Amos pinched her hard with his hands. Eudora was in pain and suddenly grimaced. He then scoffed, "You're still so stubborn!"

Eudora lowered her head and asked again...

"How did you know I was here?"

Amos thought of the proposal he witnessed earlier and felt a stab in his heart. He spoke stiffly,

"To see the children!"

"Oh!" Eudora finally stopped talking. Amos carefully checked the wounds on her legs. They seemed to be superficial injuries, and she had no fractures. Then, he took off his tie. Eudora was taken aback. "That's not necessary!"

"I don't want to see blood!"

Eudora didn't speak again, but she couldn't suppress her anger and muttered,

"Since when did you have such an issue?"

In the past, Amos had never been put off by any form of blood and gore in movies! However, he now lowered his head and didn't answer, merely scoffing bitterly in his heart.

He couldn't stand to see her bleed...

Perhaps something was wrong with him.

After bandaging up the wound, Amos knelt in front of her again. "Come on up! I'll carry you!"

Eudora was stunned. "There's no need! I can walk on my own!"

The next second, Amos grabbed her arm again. "I don't want you to slow me down to find the way out!"

Eudora went silent,"..."

How could his temper be so bad now? Why could he not listen to others?!

Eudora didn't refuse and climbed onto his back.

The night was chilly, and Amos' shoulders were broad. Eudora smelled the familiar minty scent on his body, and her racing heart had already calmed down.

She yawned. "Do you know how to get out?"

"No!"

Eudora was dumbfounded.

"If you don't know, then where are you carrying me to?"

Amos looked at the moon above his head. "When I arrived just now, the North Star was in front of us. Right now, all we can do is to return by following the direction of it."

That was a good idea! When one lost their way in the wilderness, all they had to do was look up at the stars.

Eudora didn't speak anymore. In the eerie woods, only the sound of Amos' feet stepping on the branches could be heard.

Silence fell upon them. After a long time, Amos finally asked, "Eudora?"

His tone was not as stiff as before. In a daze, Eudora thought that she had returned to the time when she was in Clearwater Bay, sleeping in on a lazy day with a man leaning on the edge of the bed, kissing he forehead and waking her up.
