My Second Husband novel Chapter 1006

Amos replied, "Yes, I really can't trust Nelson!"

Harley nodded and said, "I can understand your feelings. After all, from your point of view, he is your enemy, but this time, you might have misunderstood him! Based on our investigation, he is the victim in this incident. Moreover, his injuries are quite severe too. He is in the ward next door. If you don't believe me, you can go and check his medical records."

"Could it be that he deliberately got injured to gain our trust?" Amos asked in a low voice.

"I don't know about that. However, he had indeed given his life to rescue Naomi and Eudora, thus I'm rather dubious about the whole notion that he was faking it."

Hearing his words, Amos cast a doubtful look at Harley.

Harley shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything else. A nurse came in, so Amos asked the nurse about the patient in the next ward.

The nurse spoke excitedly, "Are you talking about Mr. Luther in the next door? He is really awesome! Although I have been working as a nurse for so many years, I have never seen such a persevering patient. A high dosage of hypnotic drugs, which could basically make an elephant faint, was detected in his body. Nonetheless, he could still save people. Unfortunately, he had grazed his palms and there is a bruise on his chest."

Amos furrowed his brow. After the nurse left, Harley spoke again.

After the nurse left, Harley spoke again, "Actually, there's more than that. We also found some small monitoring equipment at the scene, and there was some recorded footage in it. I'm not sure if he was purposely scheming a plot. However, it seems that he really put his heart and soul into saving people this time!"

Amos went silent for a while, and eventually, he said nothing else in the end.

"You can go back now. Keep a close eye on those two men. Be sure to find out who is behind all this! How dare they harm my family members! I will not let them get away with this!"

Harley nodded and said, "Alright!"

Eudora, who was lying on the bed, made a soft sound, and Amos hurriedly walked over.

When Harley noticed her movements, he decided to leave right away.

Eudora suddenly shouted, "Naomi, be careful!"

Her eyes opened.

Amos held her down and said, "It's over! It's alright, we're safe!"

Eudora was confused for a moment. The events that had happened before she fainted came to her mind. Only then did she come to her senses.

"Thank God! Where's Naomi?"

Upon hearing this, he instantly turned his head away and poured a glass of water for her.

"Have some water first!"

Eudora was quite thirsty. The abduction and the fight with the kidnapper had fatigued her. She had even forgotten to take care of her own safety throughout the mishap.

After having some water, she spoke again.

She asked, "Where is Naomi?"

"I don't know," said Amos coldly.

Eudora came to a sudden realization. She accused, "You're angry again, aren't you? I'm fine, aren't I? What else is there for you to be angry about?"

Amos frowned and said, "You're fine this time, but what about next time? Naomi never behaved like this before. I can't bear the fact that she hurt you because of someone else!"

Eudora laughed and said, "She didn't hurt me. When did she do so? If she hadn't protected me several times, I would have suffered more awful injuries!"

"You've worked so hard to raise her. As our daughter, she was supposed to protect you. Furthermore, you have to know that if it weren't for her, you wouldn't have gotten into all this!"

"It was just an accident. She didn't do it on purpose!"

"There's no need to discuss this anymore. I won't forgive her so easily this time!"

Eudora felt helpless and wanted to say something else. The nurse happened to come in from outside and ask, "Are you awake? Let me examine you for a bit."

"Thank you!"

Then, she remembered that Naomi and Nelson had both been injured.

Therefore she began to ask the nurse, "Is there any patient called 'Nelson Luther' or 'Naomi George' being hospitalized here?"

The nurse nodded and said, "Yes, Nelson Luther is in the next ward. As for Naomi George, I don't recall seeing such a name on the list of hospitalized patients."
