My Second Husband novel Chapter 250

Juju's childlike voice was very heart- wrenching, especially when it was already so dark at night.

Eudora hugged her hurriedly, "Juju, don't do this..."

Juju shouted for a long time but no one responded. After that, she threw herself into Eudora's arms.

Eudora thought Juju would cry like she did before, but to her surprise, Juju remained perfectly calm. She just rubbed herself against Eudora. "Mommy, I will protect you in the future!"

"Juju..."

It was late at night. The sound of howling rain could be heard and a gust of wind blew in through the cracks of the door.

Eudora could not help but shrink her body as she held onto Juju tightly. Juju was already tired from shouting and she had since fallen asleep.

However, Eudora could not sleep. The floor was too cold because it was paved with marble tiles, and even the walls were made of marble. It was cold everywhere and it seemed like they were in an ice cellar.

It was difficult for her to stay still as she could not lean against the cold wall and standing was too tiring. It was too tormenting for her.

It got worse after midnight. The heavy rain took away the remaining warmth outside and it became even colder in the room.

Eudora was only wearing a very thin coat but she still took it off to wrap it around Juju.

The cold wind blew on her from her back, so she had no choice but to get up and walk around. After a while, she took off her shoes and sat on it.

When it was almost dawn, she gradually felt that her body was a little dull. She frowned. She then found a corner of the wall and leaned against it.

Waves of dizziness hit her head, so she closed her eyes and quickly fell into a daze.

In confusion, she heard Juju crying and calling her name. She subconsciously tightened her arms but she could not stop Juju from crying. Later, only silence surrounded her.

Amos arrived at the neighboring city the evening before and he dealt with the problems at hand through the night. However, Eudora and Juju had yet to return his call after he came back at night.

He felt that something was off, so he immediately ordered Clint to book a car back.

However, there was a sudden rainstorm in the middle of the night. Therefore, many of the shuttle services were stopped temporarily. It was not until dawn that they finally returned to Rosaville City.

Amos immediately rushed back to the Granger family's mansion.

However, there was no one in Eudora or Juju's room and there was no trace of anyone sleeping on the bed too. His heart sank and he hurriedly stopped a servant and asked.

"Where are they?"

The servant was taken aback and she said hurriedly, "I don't know..."

"You don't know?"

Amos was usually a cold person but he was quite calm most of the time. However, at this moment, his face was icy and the air around him was frozen. The servant was scared to death and she blurted out everything she knew.

"Yesterday, someone was poisoned after eating a cake that Miss George had ordered to be thrown away. Later, the Old Master sent Miss George to the repentance room..."

Amos' heart tightened. "That icy cold room?"

The servant nodded. The next second, Amos shoved the servant away. She watched as Amos disappeared into the corridor.

Upon reaching the repentance room, Amos noticed that the door was locked with a huge padlock. He shouted, "Eudora..."

Juju's cries came from inside. "Mommy, don't die!"

Amos's heart sank and his eyes turned red. He glared at the servant next to him, "Where's the key? Get me the key!"

"Young Master, the key is with the Old Master..."

The next second, Amos turned around to walk away. The servant thought that he had gone to find the Old Master. However, in a split moment, Amos returned with an ax and immediately smashed the door.
