That man was more stubborn than she had imagined. Even though Eudora was holding him by the throat at that moment, he still kept his tongue.
"Miss George, you don't have to waste your energy. I will never betray my leader! This is the rule of our organization."
Organization?
Eudora suddenly thought of Charlie. Both Charlie and Wesley were in the same organization, and they existed solely for Amos's safety.
Eudora gritted her teeth as she pushed that thought out of her head speedily.
"Don't you try to mislead me. Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, then I will..."
Eudora grabbed the fruit knife on the table beside her. Then, she rested the tip of the knife on her neck.
"Didn't you say that your leader cares a lot about my safety? If you don't tell me, I'll slash myself, and I would love to see how both of you are going to explain this to your leader!"
The man immediately panicked and begged, "Miss George, please don't do this! He will never let me go!"
"Are you telling me or not then?"
"I'll tell you, okay? I'll tell you. It's Mr. Nolan! Mr. Nolan was the one who arranged this!"
Fabian?
Eudora's eyebrows were knitted into a tight knot, "What does he intend to do by bringing me over?"
"He..." The man paused again, "I believe that he has his own plans. Miss George, please don't make things difficult for us!"
Eudora had gotten her answer, so she couldn't be bothered to argue with that man anymore. The most important thing at that moment was to escape while that man was watching over her alone.
She picked the rope up hastily and tied the man before leaving.
Once she got outside, Eudora discovered that she was in a new residential area, and there was hardly anyone living in that area. Moreover, it was a place that she was not familiar with.
Eudora made her way down the stairs as she scrambled her mind on ways to leave that place. All of a sudden, she noticed that the man who had gone out to buy the medicine had returned.
A chill went down Eudora's spine, and she hid behind the discarded boxes at the side hurriedly. She eyed the man as he went upstairs.
Once the man was out of sight, Eudora left immediately, but she realized that she was not familiar with that area. If she wandered around aimlessly, it would increase the possibility of them recapturing her. Hence, she had no choice but to stay where she was quietly and waited for them to rush out.
Once they left the house, she could then slowly find her way around the area.
Eudora calmed down and waited for them to chase after her. Sure enough, a few minutes later, she heard rumbling footsteps all the way downstairs. They were muttering among themselves as they walked.
"What's wrong with you? Couldn't you just guard her properly? This isn't good. If we messed up his plans, both of us would be in serious trouble."
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I hope that his plans have already succeeded! Let's hurry up and chase after her."
"I hope so. We would be able to rescue Charlie once the George Family withdraws their complaint. Then, our efforts would not be wasted too. As he had said, Miss George is clever. Fortunately, I was clever enough to say Fabian's name instead..."
As the two men's footsteps gradually faded away, Eudora stood there as if she had fallen into an ice pit.
It seemed that she feared had finally happened. She had been trying to remove Amos from her assumptions from the night before. She refused to believe that Amos was the one who kidnapped her.
When Fabian's name was mentioned earlier, she breathed out a sigh of relief instantly.
However, in the end...
Eudora took a deep breath and slowly strode out from behind the boxes. She managed to get into a taxi once she reached the main road.
However, shortly after she left, the two men who went out to look for her appeared from a dark corner.
