My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 913

Thea was a little stunned when she heard Eudora's question.

"Enemies?"

"Yes in his line of work, Harley will definitely have enemies. This matter is a bit strange, isn't it? I suspect that someone is deliberately taking revenge on him. Initially, I wasn't so certain because our company was being investigated. However, that possibility seems to check out now because Harley got beaten up like that for no reason!"

"Although there are a lot of keyboard warriors on the Internet, there aren't many who dare to cause a ruckus at the police station and beat up a policeman, eh? That could only happen if someone had ordered them to do so."

Thea nodded and said, "You're probably right! However, Harley has no enemies. I'm not too sure about all that myself, but I remember that he has a notebook, which specifically has records of some of his cases. I will find it when I return home and show it to you!"

"Alright!" Eudora nodded.

Even so, Eudora went to look for Charlie to inquire about the man who had beaten Harley up so crazily.

However, nothing turned up. All he could find out was that the perpetrator, Bob, had behaved that way out of anger.

When Bob was a child, his family had been poor, and his parents were disabled. After his parents raised him up despite many hardships, not only was he unfilial, but he also became violent.

He had used up his parent's retirement funds, which they had saved up for many years, and had spent them all when he wanted to establish a business after graduating from college. After his business failed, his parents advised him to look for a job.

He refused. Every day, he felt pity for himself and lamented that he was unlucky and how great his business idea was. He felt that the reason his business had failed was entirely because his parents were poor. He then forced them to look for more money for him to start a new business.

Of course, his parents no longer had any extra funds!

For many years, they had worked so hard to raise a child. How much money could they have?

Without his parent's money, he began to feel dissatisfied with them. Within a year, he had injured his parents twice.

The third time, the neighborhood helped to drive him out from his residence.

Without money to live, he finally found a job, but failed to work hard. He only worked for two or three days in a week and could not even continue for a month before getting dismissed. Every job ended up the same for him.

This time, he had gotten dismissed only after a week of working. He had almost used up all the money he had earned from his previous job!

Charlie said, "This person has most likely been hired by someone to arouse trouble! We won't be able to investigate anything from a person like him who's not afraid of death. As long as he says that he beat Harley up due to a misunderstanding, the police will only sentence him to intentional assault at most! The sentence won't even be long! However, as for Mr. Granger..."

Eudora frowned and said, "It's okay. Please consult a lawyer, and I'll think of another way."

After Charlie left, footsteps approached the door.

They were as light as two kittens.

Eudora held her forehead.

She called out, "Come in!"

Juju and Sugar Bun came in with their heads down.

"Dad... I want Dad!" Sugar Bun shouted.

Eudora reached out to hug him. "Dad has something to do, but he will be back in two days. Sugar Bun, be a good boy these two days, okay?"

Sugar Bun shook his head and said, "I want Dad, now!"

"Then..." Eudora hesitated.. "How about this? Didn't Dad teach you how to build a dinosaur out of blocks last time? I remember that you haven't learned it yet. If Dad comes back and sees that you still haven't learned it yet, he'll be very sad! Why don't you go to sleep now and build it tomorrow morning when your mind is clear? Dad will be very happy when he sees your work!"

After hearing Eudora's words, Sugar Bun glanced at Juju, who was behind him.

Juju nodded and said, "Mommy is right!"

Only then did Sugar Bun nod his head. His short legs immediately turned around and ran away.

After a few steps, he returned and waved at Eudora, "Good night, Mom!"

Eudora could not help but laugh. A child's happiness truly came from the simplest places!

"Juju, let's go. I'll put you to bed with Sugar Bun!"

Juju stood still and looked longingly at Eudora.

She asked, "Has Dad been taken away?"

Eudora was taken aback as she replied, "No, don't be ridiculous."

"I saw it!" Juju pursed her lips. "I saw it in the news. They said Dad hit someone! They also said Dad and Uncle Louis conspired together!"

Eudora's heart jolted, and she hurriedly shook her head.

"Juju, what you see in the news might not be true. Your Dad is..."

"I believe in Dad and Uncle Louis!" Juju said firmly, "Teacher said that what comes around goes around! Dad will come back soon!"

"That's right!" Eudora nodded in relief. "My Juju really is awesome!"

Juju added, "Yes, and Vincent will come back too! I'm sure he will!"

This time, Eudora's words got stuck in her throat.

She thought that Juju was just a child. Normally after a child lost their good friend, they would feel heartbroken, but they would forget about it after a period of time. However, Juju could still remember!

However, Eudora did not have the courage to tell Juju the truth. It was better for a child to have just a glimmer of hope in their heart.

Why would she deliberately tell her the truth?

Eudora thought about this and nodded.

She told Juju, "Yes! I believe that he will come back too!"

Eudora was unable to sleep for the entire night.

The next day, Eudora met with Thea early in the morning.

Thea was incredibly punctual. She took Harley's notebook and said to Eudora, "Here, take a look!"

Eudora flipped through the pages one by one. Not many major cases had happened in the past year. Therefore, Eudora only took a glance at them before flipping to the back of the notebook.

In previous years, there had been plenty of major cases, such as the one in Greene City and Thomas Shelby's case.

However, the people involved in those two big cases were all either dead or had already been caught.

Theoretically, there shouldn't be anyone left able to seek revenge on him at all.

Eudora stroked her forehead and said, "It looks like we're heading in the wrong direction. Who else could it be?"

Thea felt a little guilty and replied, "I'm sorry. I haven't thanked you for yesterday. This time, if it weren't for Mr. Granger, Harley might..."

"Why are you being so courteous towards me? With their friendship, how could Amos turn a blind eye? Let's think about it again. Is there anyone left?"

As Thea thought about it, Eudora flipped through the notebook again. In the end, her eyes landed on a familiar name.

"Heinz Clinton? Isn't he the son of that department store tycoon?"

Thea was taken aback, "Heinz?"

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Eudora was puzzled. Heinz's charges that had been written in the notebook were not a big offense.

Therefore, Eudora had not paid it much attention.

"It's him! It must be him who did this!" Thea said, "It's Heinz. We fought with him when we went back to my family's house last time. In the video posted on the Internet, there was a scene of me and Harley coming out from your house. That day, he also went to the Stewart family's residence, which is really close to the Granger Mansion! What a despicable man!"
