After searching for a long time on the mountain, Amos became more and more impatient.
Additionally, the scorching sun on top of his head flustered him even more.
Several times, he felt so agitated that he wanted to kill someone!
He knew this problem very well. Eudora was the only cure for it. As long as he saw her and hugged her, he would be able to stay calm.
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly felt a twinge in his heart.
Frowning, he stretched out his hand and covered his chest.
"Eudora..."
He wondered if something had happened to Eudora.
"No, she'll be fine!" he desperately tried to persuade himself. However, it didn't seem to work.
He couldn't banish all the troubling thoughts from his mind.
His thoughts were interrupted by a phone call. It was from Clint.
"We've found it! The location is probably at a platform on the mountainside next to where our cabin is located..."
Following Clint's voice, Amos quickly observed the terrain nearby.
A moment later, he was shocked to find that the place Clint was talking about was not far from where he was. He just needed to move a little bit forward.
Clint continued to speak.
"Mr. Granger, don't worry. Well go there right now..."
However, before his voice had died away, Amos had already hung up on the call and ran forward.
There was an area of dense intertwined vines in front of him, blocking the path. It was a perfect hiding place. If it hadn't been Clint who said that there was a platform here, he might have thought that it was impossible to pass through it.
He pushed aside the vines without hesitation. When he went through, he saw a few people on the platform in front of him.
What made him even more frightened was that Eudora was on the edge of the cliff and was about to fall off.
"Eudora!"
Amos shouted and dashed towards her with all the energy he could muster.
However, the distance was too far. He couldn't reach her in time even if he were to run as fast as the speed of light.
Naomi panicked just like him.
She also made a dart for Eudora, but she tripped over the rope under her feet and fell to the ground.
"No!" Naomi stretched out her hand in the direction of Eudora.
Fortunately, Nelson laid prone on the edge of the cliff, gripping Eudora's hand.
"Mrs. Granger!"
Eudora looked at Nelson in astonishment. She hadn't expected Nelson to be her savior at a moment like that.
Seeing the scene, Naomi grew relieved.
Upon noticing his actions, Cody got ready to attack Nelson from behind. Naomi hurriedly stepped forward and kicked him away.
He fell to the ground, while Jerry, who passed out a minute ago, woke up.
He intended to join in the fight. The next second, he took a punch on the back and he fell down too.
"Eudora!"
There was nothing else in Amos's eyes but his precious wife.
After knocking down the two men, Amos quickly went to the edge of the cliff and pulled Eudora up together with Nelson.
Amos' appearance set Eudora's mind at rest.
Amos looked affectionately at her scratched face, palm and wrist.
"How did you end up like this?"
Eudora shook her head and said, "It's nothing. Why did you come so late?"
