Amos had not spoken a word since the two doctors entered the ward.
He just leaned on the bed and listened to Clint's report patiently. The latter was currently reporting about the video that had been posted online.
"President Granger, I've found the source that uploaded Mrs. Granger's video! How are you planning to deal with it?"
Amos lowered his head slowly, "Find them and make them pay. Send them to the police station afterward! I'll have them sued for slander."
"Yes!" Clint nodded.
"Also," Amos said again, "Don't let those netizens on the Internet get away. I want all of them sued..."
"Yes!" Clint agreed. This time, these people had messed with the wrong side.
Doctor Chilton and Doctor Leon were also on thin ice.
Amos had always respected them, but they betrayed him instead.
Doctor Chilton felt that the conversation that Amos and Clint were having was actually meant for him.
Even though he wasn't one to be shaken easily, Doctor Chilton still took a deep breath.
The next second, Amos asked,
"Doctor Chilton, how is Eudora?"
Doctor Chilton's heart skipped a beat. Surely enough, Amos was trying to scare him!
He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
Doctor Leon, who was standing next to him, shook his head, "Since you're asking, you must have noticed that something was amiss. Are you suspecting that we've lied to you?"
Doctor Leon was indeed familiar with the Granger family. After all, he had been working for them for years. Basically, he knew their behavior and thoughts like the back of his hand.
Amos frowned and said, "Since you already know, are you still not going to tell me the truth? What happened? Did Eudora even recover at all? Tell me!"
Doctor Chilton was shocked at the sudden outburst and he started explaining everything from the start.
In the end, he sighed.
"It's not our place to do this, but Mrs. Granger had a point. If she never had a chance of surviving, as a doctor, I just hope to keep the child safe..."
"Nonsense!" Amos snapped.
He became extremely terrifying once he heard Doctor Chilton's words. At this moment, his eyes were red.
"Who said that you could do this? Why didn't you follow my instructions? Why didn't you tell me?"
Doctor Chilton's words echoed in his mind. "We gave Mrs. Granger a checkup again that morning, but the poison has made its way into her internal organs..."
It happened so fast!
Too fast!
Knowing that Eudora might be gone someday, Amos's heart felt as though it was stabbed by a knife, bleeding drop by drop.
"You should've stopped her then! This is too irresponsible of you, don't you think?"
Amos looked at the two people in front of him. He was so angry that he felt an urge to strangle them there and then.
"Do you know? She could've survived, but you gave up..."
Doctor Leon, who was next to him, seemed to have thought of something and he said nervously,
"Did Eudora's condition worsen over the past few days?"
Amos laughed bitterly and looked at Doctor Leon. "You should be glad that she is just in a bad mood, not sick. Otherwise, I won't be sitting here and talking to you today."
Doctor Leon and Doctor Chilton immediately sighed with relief.
