Auntie Valerie had forgotten that Juju was still in the room and had heard everything that she said. After Aunt Valerie was done explaining, Juju cried louder than ever.
In fact, Juju was petrified when she heard that Amos stabbed himself with a knife. After all, children were very afraid of knives!
"It's okay. He's much better now!1' Auntie Valerie tried to calm Juju down but Juju was unwilling to listen to her.
Not only Juju, even Eudora trembled when she heard what Auntie Valerie said. "Auntie Valerie, please take us to him. Juju won't feel at ease if she doesn't see him!"
She was feeling uneasy as well.
Auntie Valerie was hesitant. "Should I ask for Mr. Granger's permission first?"
She was very worried about infuriating Mr. Granger!
Auntie Valerie was always very considerate and Eudora did not want to make things difficult for her, so Eudora nodded.
After that, Auntie Valerie quickly rushed to Amos' ward. His ward was not far from Eudora's. She had a fractured limb and was unable to move, so she did not know.
In Amos' ward, Harley was holding the fruit with a silly smile. "My dear little Amos, come, let me serve you!"
Clint did not know what to say.
Meanwhile, Amos had his back against Harley.
Harley continued, "You'll get better soon if you eat some fruits. Did you forget that you had accidentally tore your wound open this morning? I'm starting to suspect that you did something bad last night while everyone was away, right?"
Clint stood up suddenly and asked, "Mr. Granger, did someone attack you last night?"
Harley was speechless. "Clint, I still don't get why he chose you to be his assistant! Obviously, someone must have gone to visit someone in another room, that's why..."
Clint was at a loss of words.
"Shut up!" Amos said through gritted teeth.
While they were talking, Auntie Valerie suddenly burst through the doors. "Sir..."
Amos was taken aback. He asked, "Shouldn't you be with Juju and Eudora?"
"Miss found out about your injuries. Juju found blood stains on her clothes, so..."
"Oh!" Harley gave Amos a meaningful look. "Do you have anything to say, Clint?"
Clint merely shrugged his shoulders!
Amos frowned, "Did you tell her?"
"I didn't have no choice. Miss is too smart and she immediately guessed it. Besides, Juju is crying..."
As soon as Amos heard that, he immediately got up and headed towards the door.
Clint hissed and shouted after Amos, "Be careful of your wounds!"
The next second, Amos turned around and Clint heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Amos still knew that he should listen to the doctor's orders.
Unexpectedly, Amos quickly grabbed some clothes and went to the bathroom. When he came out, no one could tell that he was injured.
Then, Amos headed straight out the door.
Clint did not know what to say.
Harley quickly followed Amos. "There's going to be a good show. I want to see how he is going to explain this to Eudora!"
Juju was still crying in Eudora's ward.
A figure entered the ward and he quickly held Juju in his arms.
"Juju, why are you crying?
Hearing this, Juju slowly stopped sobbing and stared at Amos with her big round eyes.
Not just Juju, another pair of eyes were following his every move as well. Amos could feel her watching him, so he put Juju down and stood where he was.
"Alright, take a good look at me. I'm fine."
Noticing that Amos was no different from his usual self, Juju was finally relieved. She smiled sweetly and threw herself into Amos' arms again. Juju used all her strength when she jumped at Amos. Eudora noticed that Amos was frowning slightly. He only frowned ever so slightly and it immediately returned to his smiling face.
Seeing that the father and daughter were reunited happily, Eudora could not seem to take her eyes off them. The scene looked exceptionally warm. However, why did she have a feeling that something was off?
She pondered for a while but she still could not figure it out. Eudora was afraid that Juju would injure him, so she called Juju, "Juju, don't you want Mommy anymore now that you have Daddy? Mommy is so sad!"
