My Second Husband novel Chapter 419

Vincent didn't know what to say as he was too nervous. He gulped again.

Amos suddenly bellowed, "Tell me!"

Vincent was so scared that his heart was about to stop. He quickly explained everything.

Amos' eyes turned scarlet after hearing his explanation.

"Did you talk about it at home last night? Did you mention that you are coming to my place today?"

Vincent nodded and said, "Yes, I've told Grandma about it."

Charlie, who was standing next to Amos, instantly knew that this was a well-planned trap set up by the other party. A moment ago, he saw something dropping out of Vincent's pocket on the surveillance footage.

And the Madam had an emotional outburst after seeing that fallen object.

In a split second, Amos had his grip on Vincent's neck, "Why? Why won't they all just leave her alone? What has she done to deserve all of this?"

Vincent's neck was tightly clamped in Amos' large hands, and his face instantly turned purplish.

He desperately scratched and tugged on Amos's wrists as he shouted intermittently, "Uncle... Uncle..." Amos did not react to Vincent's cries. At that moment, his soul was emptied as soon as he imagined the heartbroken Eudora.

Very soon, Vincent's paddling hands became weaker. He was gasping for air with his mouth, and his eyes began to lose their focus.

The door to the study was suddenly pushed open from the outside and Juju shouted.

"Little wimp, you..."

In the next second, she cried out in horror, "Ah!"

Amos snapped out of it instantly and loosened his grip on Vincent's neck.

Vincent was like a fish that had been washed ashore and on the verge of dying. He was gasping for air and coughing forcefully.

Amos took the horrified Juju into his arms, "Juju, don't be frightened."

Juju was still a little terrified. She stared at Amos in horror, as though she was getting to know her father for the first time.

Her father was clearly a gentle and kind person. How could he suddenly turn into someone so... different?

Charlie explained in a panic on Amos' behalf, "Miss Juju, it is not what you think it is. Mr. Granger was just too angry. Please don't be afraid."

Juju stared blankly in Vincent's direction, and it took her a while to stop sobbing. She then asked in a soft voice, "Is he dead?"

Amos shook his head instantly, "No, your Daddy won't kill anyone."

He was so mad that he had forgotten about his child and wife that was still at home. Those who harmed Eudora were indeed abominable. However, it would have been a grave mistake to let his child and wife be affected because of those despicable people.

Little Juju was still unconvinced, as her eyes were still fixed on Vincent.

Charlie, who was watching the scene, was worried that Juju would start to view Amos differently because of this. Therefore, he explained hurriedly.

"Miss Juju, this is all but a misunderstanding. It was Young Master Vincent who had brought in something bizarre which disturbed the Madam..."

"Shut up..." Amos gritted his teeth. He did not want to mention the incident to Juju at all. Juju was still so young, thus, she shouldn't be told of such dreadful stuff.

However, Charlie had blurted everything out and Juju heard it all.

Amos explained to her in a hurry, "Don't think so much about it. It has nothing to do with you."

Juju listened to him quietly before turning around and hugging Amos, saying, "I'm sorry, Daddy. I've misunderstood you!"

This little girl was so sensible that it made Amos' heart ache. He shook his head instantly, "No, there's no need for Juju to apologize to me ever."

Juju then got down from Amos' arms and slowly walked over to Vincent. The surveillance footage that Amos had put on the screen a while ago was still there. The image of Vincent dropping something out of his pocket was rewound several times.

Juju's eyes gradually darkened after watching the footage.
