"Does it hurt?" Thomas Shelby smiled ferociously. His hand was holding onto the dagger that was still plunged into Amos Granger's flesh.
It was so painful that his sweat was dripping down his face. However, he gritted his teeth and did not utter a word at all.
He couldn't speak, all of his strength was in his arms now. If he were to say anything, there was a high probability that he would lose his strength, which could put Eudora George in danger.
Eudora gawked at Amos. From this angle, no one could see it more clearly than she did.
She saw it with her own eyes. She saw the silver dagger piercing into Amos' flesh. As she looked at it, she could feel it in her heart as well, as if it had been pierced too. It was so painful that she had forgotten how to breathe.
"Let go!" Eudora suddenly shouted. "I don't need you to rescue me, I don't need it!" When you have chosen Wendy just now, then I have nothing to do with you anymore! Even if you are stabbed to death, I will not look back."
Amos shook his head and smiled at her.
"It's just a minor injury. It's nothing."
Eudora held her breath and suddenly recalled the first time when she saw Amos, and how his body was covered in scars. Looking proudly over the scene before him, Thomas said, "I'm so moved that I am going to cry now. However, this will end very soon!"
As soon as he finished his words, he raised his hand again and pulled the knife from Amos' arm. The tip of the knife glinted coldly as he plunged it towards Amos' heart.
Eudora's eyes widened as she shouted, "Be careful!"
In the next second, she aimed at the rope that was dangling above her head and pulled the trigger with huge effort.
The sound startled both men. Amos, whose eyes had turned red, roared, "Eudora George, you're crazy!"
As his words rang out, the rope above her head snapped, and she plummeted. The feeling of weightlessness enveloped her, as she felt like a free bird, freefalling from the sky.
She had never been a free person. At the very beginning, her existence in this world was meant for Gordon George. Then, for the subsequent years, she had lived because of the Meyer Family. Even when she was finally able to leave the Meyer Family, she had immediately fallen into Amos’ trap, becoming a caged bird once again.
Now, she could finally live for herself!.
Seeing that Amos was nervously running towards her, Eudora's lips curled upwards. "Amos, I don't owe you anything anymore!"
Then, with a loud bang, she fell onto the ground. She could feel the sharp pain throughout her body and her eyes gradually blacking out, until she could no longer see anything.
"Eudora!"
Amos threw away the rope that he was holding on and ran desperately towards her. At the same time, Thomas, who was behind him, raised the dagger as he prepared to stab him again. Suddenly, there was a loud bang behind him. A bullet had exited through the back of his hand.
With a bang, the dagger fell onto the ground.
Harley Louis and the police officers rushed in and subdued him immediately.
Fortunately, Harley had noticed Amos' strange behaviour when he left his office. So he had decided to return.
Sure enough, he found that Amos was not resting at all. He hurriedly looked through the relevant surveillance footage and finally spotted Amos, but...
Looking at the bloodstain on Amos1 shoulder, he frowned. Was he too late?
“Amos, are you okay?" Harley ran over in a hurry.
Amos ignored him and said, "Call an ambulance."
Only then did he notice that Eudora was lying in Amos1 arms with her eyes closed. Harley did not dare to ask more. He hastily called an ambulance, and the three of them headed for the hospital.
The doctor made a preliminary diagnosis on Wendy Liam and Eudora. There was nothing wrong with Wendy, she had passed out merely out of fear. On the other hand, Eudora's condition was rather serious. Although her fall was cushioned by the cargo boxes on the ground, Eudora still suffered multiple bone fractures.
Harley frowned and said, "How did this happen? I thought that Thomas had already found out about your weaknesses, didn’t he? You had already broken up with her, so why are her injuries more serious than Wendy's?"
Amos lowered his head, as the scene of Eudora trying to save him played in his mind repeatedly.
She was such a delicate woman, yet whenever there was a critical moment, her stubbornness would always surprise him.
After a long time, he opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice.
