Eudora could feel as though blood was seeping from her heart.
If she had a choice, she hoped that she was already marooned in hell.
She wanted to stand upright and tell Amos to his face that she didn't love him anymore, but those words couldn't seem to fall out of her mouth.
Eudora opened her mouth, but she felt like she was about to cave in.
Fabian, who was behind her all this while, had been silently observing Amos with a sense of scrutiny. After all, the name 'Amos Granger' had always been hailed as a legend in the business industry.
However, it was a pity that they had never had a chance to compete against each other.
This was the first time that he had met Amos in person, despite being clad in injuries and his face looking not too amicable.
However, he was still much stronger than a lot of men, especially with his deep affection for Eudora. Looking at him, Fabian was suddenly washed over with a strong urge to fight for Eudora.
If Eudora was just a woman whom he could get easily, he would not be interested in her in the first place.
However, he now found it very interesting to have such an excellent man as his opponent.
At this moment, Fabian saw Eudora's back beginning to tense up in front of him, with her shoulders slightly trembling. He could tell that Eudora might not be able to hold on for any longer.
She must be filled with guilt for what she was doing to Amos, which was why she couldn't hold on any longer.
At this point, Fabian couldn't allow them the chance at reconciliation again. Thinking of this, he immediately walked over and laid his strong arms firmly on Eudora's shoulders.
"Eudora, what's wrong? Is this your ex-husband?"
Eudora was stunned, and she felt an urge to punch Fabian, but he had already pinched her arm before she could act out her fury.
He whispered in her ear, "Are you going to put all of your previous efforts to waste? Tyler is not that kind as you thought he is. Aren't you afraid that he will seek revenge on this ex-husband of yours?"
Eudora squeezed his hand and relaxed instantly.
Eudora only saw a few bodyguards a few moments ago. However, there were even more hiding in obscure places which she couldn't see.
Fabian clearly reminded her of her promise. Eudora was glad that she didn't go back on her words just now. Otherwise, Amos would definitely be languishing in a very miserable place at this moment.
Eudora took a deep breath and clutched her arms around Fabian's waist.
With such an act unfolding before Amos, his eyes were filled with jealousy whereas Fabian, on the other hand, was stunned. She was the first woman who dared to put her arms around him without his consent!
However, he didn't seem to hate it.
Amos, who was right in front of her, beheld this scene with bloodshot eyes. His woman had actually taken the initiative to put her arms around another man's waist.
There seemed to be a trace of anger arising from his chest that was about to be released anytime soon. He swallowed it with all his might and looked silently at Eudora.
"Eudora, what are you doing? Stop fooling around!"
At times like that, Amos was still gentle to her. Eudora's heart ached again, but she immediately shook her head.
"Amos, I mean, Mr. Granger. I'm not fooling around. This is Fabian Nolan. I believe you must have heard of his name, yes? Compared with you, he shouldn't be too bad, right? You used to be such a man like him, but sadly, you're too weak now. So, I have to find someone else! My bad."
After saying that, she pretended to be shy and leaned on Fabian's shoulder.
"Didn't you say that you were going take me to view the best scenery in Greene City once we return? Why don't we leave now?"
With a roguish gaze, Fabian looked down at the woman leaning on his arm. Her acting skills were commendable, and her voice and emotions were exactly on point. It would have been extremely convincing if her body wasn't trembling so badly.
It seemed that things were getting much more interesting!
Fabian lifted the corner of his lips and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you then!"
