Wendy was stunned. "I won't leave."
But Clint had already walked over and said, "Miss Liam, you'd better go! The person whom President Granger needs now is Miss George, not you."
"You..." Wendy gritted her teeth and stared at Clint, but there was nothing she could do. Clint was Amos' assistant, so it wasn’t wise to get into a fight with him. She then tried to persuade him, "Why don’t we call a doctor? Miss George isn’t a doctor. She can’t help with his condition either."
Clint didn’t have time to explain, so he said bluntly, "Miss Liam, you don't know the truth. Please get out, otherwise, I'll call security!"
Wendy was very upset but she couldn't do anything else except leave.
Only then did Eudora George start taking off Amos’ clothes. She wiped his body carefully with a warm damp cloth
Even though she had wiped his body thoroughly with the towel, Amos still did not wake up. Perhaps too much time had passed. Eudora was anxious. "Please bring me some ice cubes."
Eudora made cold compresses with the ice cubes and pressed them on his body, but still there wasn't much progress.
Clint started getting anxious as he yelled next to Amos, "President Granger, it's Miss George. Miss George is here. Please open your eyes."
Eudora nodded as well, "It's me!" Then, she grabbed his hand and continued, "Amos, please wake up!"
Amos' fingers moved slightly, and Eudora’s heart was immediately filled with joy. She quickly hugged him, and exclaimed excitedly, "You're awake!"
Seeing her reaction, Clint turned away instinctively.
Eudora was embarrassed and she quickly got up. "Let me take a look..."
"Don't move," Amos ordered. He held her body tightly with his strong arm and pressed her on his body. "Will you lay here with me for a while?"
Eudora was shocked, then she looked into his eyes. Being that close to him made her notice the faint dark circles under his eyes.
"Did you not sleep well for the past few days?"
Amos pursed his lips and said, "It's all right. Just sleep by my side for a while. I'll be fine soon."
"But your rashes..."
He gradually lowered his voice and said, "With you around, I’m not worried at all..."
Eudora frowned. She wanted to move but she immediately stopped when she saw Amos sleeping soundly. She lay on his body and stared at him.
Even when he was asleep, his brows were still tightly furrowed. Fortunately, the red rashes on his face were fading away slowly.
It wasn't until then that Eudora finally felt relieved and slowly fell asleep. Wendy had been waiting for a long time outside the door, but nothing much seemed to have happened inside. She stood up.
"Is he all right now? Let me go in and take a look."
"Miss Liam!" Clint tried to stop her, "You can't go in."
"Why can't I? Amos is in danger. Aren’t you supposed to take care of him as his assistant?"
Clint frowned and replied in a slightly annoyed tone, "Miss Liam, I've been with President Granger for more than ten years. I know him better than you do."
It was only then that Wendy realized she had misspoken. She hurriedly apologized.
'T m sorry, I was just too worried. Assistant Zuckerberg, please forgive me."
Clint didn't have a good impression of Wendy. He had been tolerant of her because she was President Granger's lifesaver. He believed that President Granger had repaid his debts when he risked his life to bring her back from the States.
President Granger had even helped her start a company. Yet, Miss Liam still wanted more, even though she clearly knew President Granger was deeply in love with Miss George.
At first, he thought Miss Liam was President Granger's true love.
However, as things progressed, it was still Miss George who saved President Granger.
President Granger may continue to dwell on the fact that Miss Liam had saved his life, but he did not Therefore, Clint replied bluntly, "Miss Liam, you may leave first if you have something to do. President Granger is going to be fine!"
Wendy finally stopped and did not dare speak again.
