My Second Husband novel Chapter 299

By the time Amos Granger arrived at the hospital, he saw Bethany Hamilton, Harry Granger, Kaylene Yoder, and Steven Granger waiting outside the emergency room.

Amos looked around but did not see Eudora George.

He frowned slightly and asked in a hoarse voice, "How's the Old Master?"

Harry ignored him. Bethany said in a low voice, "The doctor is fighting to save his life. The initial diagnosis is that the Old Master was poisoned."

Amos nodded and asked, "Where is Eudora?"

Harry immediately ran toward Amos and punched him in the face, "Don't you see what had happened? Yet you're still thinking about Eudora. That woman poisoned your father!"

Amos snorted and wiped the blood off his lips.

"Did you investigate this properly before jumping to your conclusion? I need evidence, or I'll assume that you are trying to frame her."

He would never believe that a good person like Eudora would poison his father.

Harry gnashed his teeth in anger, "You..." He was about to punch Amos again when Amos grabbed his hand, "Uncle Harry, stop it. I didn't punch you back because you are older than me, but that doesn't mean that you can pick on me." Amos had always been aggressive. It was a miracle that Harry was able to punch him the way he did. However, it was ridiculous if he thought that he could do it again.

Harry finally withdrew his hand, but the expression on his face still looked terrible.

"Out of everyone in the family, the Old Master disliked Eudora the most. Moreover, as long as he was alive, you and she are not allowed to get married. She is the only one who has the motive to kill the Old Master. Furthermore, the servants were not around this morning because they had a meeting. She was the only one in the room when we got there. How are you going to explain this?"

Amos's face darkened. The only thought in his mind was that Eudora must have been framed.

"I don't have to explain anything else. Call the police. I believe in her. I believe that the police will find out who really did this!"

Harry was stunned and he looked at Amos in surprise. He probably didn't expect Amos to respond this way.

Bethany, who was next to him, said hurriedly, "We are a family. Why are you guys arguing? The Old Master is still in the room fighting for his life. If he knows that you are at each other's throats again, he will not be happy."

Steven also nodded, "Yes, Auntie is right. Uncle has been hoping that our family would be peaceful again."

Kaylene immediately gave Steven a look of disapproval, as if to say, "Which side are you on?" However, Steven ignored her and turned to Amos.

"Amos, don't worry. Eudora is fine. Things were urgent then, so my father only instructed for her to be locked up at home. There are food and drinks available for her. She's not in any danger."

Amos then breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, the door of the emergency room opened and the attending doctor emerged from the room.

Bethany hurried forward and asked anxiously, "How is he?"

Harry also asked, "Also, what kind of poison was it?"

The doctor's face was solemn, "The patient has indeed been poisoned. He has taken a large number of anti-inflammatory drugs. That was how he was poisoned. We have already pumped his stomach, but because you found him a little late, the drugs were already in his system. It's hard to say whether the patient will wake up or not."

Bethany's body trembled and her legs gave way.

When Steven saw that Bethany nearly fell, he quickly reached over and held her, "Be careful, Auntie."

Bethany was so frustrated that she wanted to cry, "Who on earth is so cruel? Why does this person want to kill your uncle?"
