Chapter 250
Juju's childlike voice was very heart- wrenching, especially when it was already so dark at night.
Eudora hugged her hurriedly, "Juju, don't do this..."
Juju shouted for a long time but no one responded. After that, she threw herself into Eudora's arms.
Eudora thought Juju would cry like she did before, but to her surprise, Juju remained perfectly calm.
She just rubbed herself against Eudora. "Mommy, I will protect you in the future!"
"Juju..."
It was late at night. The sound of howling rain could be heard and a gust of wind blew in through the
cracks of the door.
Eudora could not help but shrink her body as she held onto Juju tightly. Juju was already tired from
shouting and she had since fallen asleep.
However, Eudora could not sleep. The floor was too cold because it was paved with marble tiles, and
even the walls were made of marble. It was cold everywhere and it seemed like they were in an ice
cellar.
It was difficult for her to stay still as she could not lean against the cold wall and standing was too tiring.
It was too tormenting for her.
It got worse after midnight. The heavy rain took away the remaining warmth outside and it became
even colder in the room.
Eudora was only wearing a very thin coat but she still took it off to wrap it around Juju.
The cold wind blew on her from her back, so she had no choice but to get up and walk around. After a
while, she took off her shoes and sat on it.
When it was almost dawn, she gradually felt that her body was a little dull. She frowned. She then
found a corner of the wall and leaned against it.
Waves of dizziness hit her head, so she closed her eyes and quickly fell into a daze.
In confusion, she heard Juju crying and calling her name. She subconsciously tightened her arms but
she could not stop Juju from crying. Later, only silence surrounded her.
Amos arrived at the neighboring city the evening before and he dealt with the problems at hand through
the night. However, Eudora and Juju had yet to return his call after he came back at night.
He felt that something was off, so he immediately ordered Clint to book a car back.
However, there was a sudden rainstorm in the middle of the night. Therefore, many of the shuttle
services were stopped temporarily. It was not until dawn that they finally returned to Rosaville City.
Amos immediately rushed back to the Granger family's mansion. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
However, there was no one in Eudora or Juju's room and there was no trace of anyone sleeping on the
bed too. His heart sank and he hurriedly stopped a servant and asked.
"Where are they?"
The servant was taken aback and she said hurriedly, "I don't know..."
"You don't know?"
Amos was usually a cold person but he was quite calm most of the time. However, at this moment, his
face was icy and the air around him was frozen. The servant was scared to death and she blurted out
everything she knew.
"Yesterday, someone was poisoned after eating a cake that Miss George had ordered to be thrown
away. Later, the Old Master sent Miss George to the repentance room..."
Amos' heart tightened. "That icy cold room?"
The servant nodded. The next second, Amos shoved the servant away. She watched as Amos
disappeared into the corridor.
Upon reaching the repentance room, Amos noticed that the door was locked with a huge padlock. He
shouted, "Eudora..."
Juju's cries came from inside. "Mommy, don't die!"
Amos's heart sank and his eyes turned red. He glared at the servant next to him, "Where's the key?
Get me the key!"
"Young Master, the key is with the Old Master..."
The next second, Amos turned around to walk away. The servant thought that he had gone to find the
Old Master. However, in a split moment, Amos returned with an ax and immediately smashed the door.
The servant was scared out of her wits. It was as if the Young Master had transformed into a demon.
After smashing the door, he kicked it open and spotted Eudora lying on the cold floor in the empty
room. Juju was desperately. sitting next to her, crying
His breathing stopped and he hurried
forward, "Eudora..."
"Don't touch my Mommy!" Juju glared at Amos angrily, "You can't protect my Mommy. I will never
forgive you."
She went to pull Eudora, "Mommy, let's go. I will bring Mommy home. Let's go back to Italy. We will
never come back here again."
Amos felt a pang of pain in his heart. Not only was he pained by Juju's rejection, but also Eudora's
haggardness and his late arrival.
He promised to take good care of them but his failure to protect them had made them suffer in the cold
room for the whole night.
"Juju, listen to me."
"I don't want to listen to you. You are a horrible Daddy. Mommy said that you will come back to find us,
but you didn't come all night!"
"I'm sorry, Juju, but now is not the time to be angry. Let me take Mommy to see a doctor first, okay? I'll
let you punish me after this!"
It was not until then that Juju realized that her mother needed medical attention urgently. Hence, she
quickly took a step back and let Amos pick Eudora up.
He could feel the cold seeping from Eudora's body as soon as he touched her. It was as though there
was no trace of warmth left on her. Amos' heart immediately sank and he shouted at the door hurriedly,
"Quick, call Doctor Leon!"
The servant promptly did as she was told. Amos rushed upstairs with Eudora in his arms and went into
their room.
He placed her on the bed and reached out to wrap her in the quilt.
Juju followed him along the way and her eyes never left Eudora. She did not even blink, as though she
was afraid that her mother would disappear as soon as she closed her eyes.
Doctor Leon came very quickly and he immediately inspected Eudora. He then said, "Fortunately, she
only fainted from the cold. I will give her some medicine. She should eat something after taking the
medication. She had probably starved for a whole day."
Amos' eyes darkened and he hurriedly turned back to check on Juju.
"Juju, have you eaten yet?"
Juju ignored him and went over to hold Eudora's arm.
Doctor Leon frowned, "How did this happen? Wasn't everything just fine a few days ago?"
Amos snorted, "I will never forgive those who hurt my wife and child!"
After that, he made his way downstairs and straight to the kitchen.
When the chef spotted Amos in the kitchen, he came up to him hurriedly, "Young Master, what would
you like to eat? We'll cook for you right away."
"Get out!" Amos said through gritted teeth. He took out some potatoes from the cabinet and made
some soup.
Both of them had not eaten for an entire day, so it was not suitable for them to eat too much. The best
food for them right now would be some soup to nourish their bodies. They could have other food once
they get better.
Amos took charge of the entire process and watched as the soup boiled slowly in the pot. He did not
even set foot out of the kitchen.
When the soup was done, he transferred the soup into two bowls and returned to the room.
Doctor Leon got up and left after Amos came back. Amos then took a bowl of soup and gave it to Juju.
"Have some!"
However, Juju still ignored him. Amos then said, "Your Mommy will be worried if you don't eat it."
Juju was afraid that her mother would be worried, so she eventually picked up a spoon and started
eating.
Amos took the other bowl of soup and walked toward the bed.
