Amos held Eudora's head and kissed her back with a smile.
"You see, Juju? We're good."
Juju finally smiled. She then walked over to Amos and Eudora. She held their hands and went to the dining table together.
It was a weekend that day. Therefore, the two of them played with Juju after breakfast.
However, Eudora seemed to be in a world of her own. Juju called her several times in between but it seemed as though she was spacing out most of the time.
Amos sighed helplessly and took the toy from her, "Is it that hard for you to trust me?"
Eudora was stunned. She nodded when she realized what Amos was talking about. "I still have some difficulties believing you. After all, she had saved your life before."
Five years ago, he was willing to throw his life away for Wendy Liam. How was Eudora going to believe that he was willing to punish Wendy?
Amos' heart sank. At the end of the way, Wendy was still the one thing that separated them.
Amos pondered for a moment before he spoke.
"Clint is going to the police station later to hand over some evidence. You can tag along if you want." Eudora was taken aback for a moment but she quickly nodded and agreed, "Okay!"
She still could not believe him!
Amos then made a phone call to Clint.
Eudora could not stop talking once she got into the car.
"How much evidence do you guys have?"
Clint said truthfully, "It should be sufficient. We had never suspected Miss Liam previously. However, the truth had come into light this time because of Caleb. For example, the bus accident years ago, as well as the swapping of the corpses."
Eudora inhaled sharply. She could not believe that Wendy already had the intention to get rid of her from that long ago.
Seeing that Eudora did not respond to him, Clint thought that she was frightened. Hence, he shouted hurriedly, "Miss George, are you alright?"
"What kind of punishments will she receive?"
Eudora was not afraid but it gave her goosebumps when she thought about it now. Fortunately, luck was on Juju's side that day.
She hoped that a vicious woman like her would be severely punished!
Clint thought for a moment and said, "She might not the mastermind but she's still an accomplice. She'll probably be in jail for a long time! Don't worry."
"Is she only going to be sentenced to jail time?" Eudora frowned and said, "Lots of people lost their lives on the bus that day! Can't she be sentenced to death?"
Clint stared at Eudora in awe as though this was his first time meeting her.
The Eudora he once knew might have her own principles but she was never a cruel person!
Eudora seemed to have read his mind and she continued, "Everyone deserved to be punished for their mistakes. That's how things should be!"
She was right! In fact, Clint had thought so too but he just found it a little strange coming from Eudora.
However, it was inexplicably cool when she said it!
"We'll do our best! However, we only have evidence to prove that she is an accomplice."
"Okay!"
Wendy was temporarily detained as she was suspected to be involved in a criminal case.
Amos and Eudora did not see her when they arrived at the police station. They only assisted in the investigation by providing files of information and giving their statement.
Eudora stated everything she knew and even mentioned that she had suspected that it was Wendy who was behind the kidnapping of her child.
Harley happened to be in charge of the case. He was furious as well when he heard Eudora's testimony.
"Sh*t, so it turned out to be her that night. Don't worry, I'll make sure to include this in the investigation. Rest assured, I will not let her escape!"
"Is that so? Then why did I hear that Caleb had escaped?"
