Harley arrived at the ward in the evening.
He stared at Eudora as soon as he entered the room. Eudora was confused.
"What? Is there something on my face?"
"No, I'm just thinking if you were really going to marry Christopher, or is this just a part of your plan to take Amos back!"
Eudora was at a loss of words.
"You're thinking too much. Do I look like I have the time to do that?"
Harley nodded firmly and he replied, "Of course!" Eudora was speechless.
"You should leave if you don't have anything else to say. I still have to accompany Juju."
"No. Tell me honestly, was this all a show between you and Christopher? Did you actually take advantage of me to pass on the message?"
What was he talking about? Eudora was extremely confused at this point.
"Why do you think that it's just for show?"
"Because you didn't get married today but Christopher got married. Amos' heart used to waver, but now, he's so sure about you, and he became extremely loyal to you."
She did not hear the last sentence clearly because all she heard was that Christopher Gellert had gotten married.
"What do you mean by Christopher is married? Did he get married today?"
"Yes, the wedding is held in the hotel."
"Who is the bride?"
Harley shook his head and said, "I don't know who she is."
"Do you have a photo?"
Harley took out a photo and handed it to Eudora. "I just went there for fun because I thought that you were getting married and Amos would definitely crash the wedding. The wedding would have been really lively if he did that. Yet, I didn't see you or Amos when I got there. Instead, I saw a bride whom I didn't know, so I took a photo."
The girl in the picture was pretty good-looking but Eudora did not know her either.
She put down the photo and instinctively thought of calling Christopher. However, Harley stopped her and said, "That won't be the right thing to do. He has just gotten married. He is either busy or 'enjoying' himself. What would he think if you called him right now?"
Eudora did not know what to say. She glared at Harley and turned to look at Juju.
Fortunately, Juju did not hear what Harley said. However, Harley had a point. This really was not a suitable time to call him.
"Alright, you should head back now!" Harley was at a loss of words.
However, he did not intend to leave. He then said, "It seemed like you weren't pulling tricks but you've succeeded in capturing Amos' heart. You are even better than me in this aspect. Why don't you teach me some of your secrets?"
At this moment, Juju's sweet voice came from behind Eudora, "Mommy, what aspect is that? What secrets?"
Eudora was shocked.
Eudora rolled her eyes at Harley. She said in a hurry, "Leave now! Otherwise, I will break your leg!"
Harley replied, "Does Amos know how incredible you are?"
Someone had just entered through the door just as Harley's words fell.
The two of them turned to see who it was and they happened to meet Amos' eyes.
"I know. Do you have a problem with that?"
Harley did not know what to say.
Of course, Harley had nothing against it.
How would he dare to have any objections? He would be beaten to death if he did! He quickly found an excuse to escape.
