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 exined everything.
Amos'' eyes turned scarlet after hearing his exnation.
"Did you talk about it at homest night? Did you mention that you areing to my ce 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-nned trap set up by the
other party. A moment ago, he saw something dropping out of Vincent''s pocket on the surveince
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 mped in Amos''rge 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 exined 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 nkly 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 exined 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 exined 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 surveince 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.
The next second, she raised her hand and pped Vincent in the face.
"Vincent, you are so mean. I thought that you were my friend, yet you harmed my Mom. Get lost. I don''t
want to see you ever again!"
Vincent''s mouth was wide open in disbelief. He didn''t know what had gone wrong, but it seemed that
everything he had done was wrong in other people''s eyes.
Looking at the sad look in Juju''s eyes, Vincent''s heart was also filled with unprecedented bitterness. It
was akin to the feeling when his mother left him in the past. He felt helpless and sorrowful.
"Naomi..."
Vincent tried to exin.
"I''m not going to listen to you. Go away!"
Amos knew that a child probably couldn''t do much. The main culprit was the group of people behind
him. He almost choked him to death a moment ago, and he admitted that he had crossed the line.
"Charlie, send him out."
Juju didn''t want to see him, neither did Amos.
Charlie came over hastily, pulled Vincent up, and took him away.
The door of the study closed slowly. With onest nce, Vincent saw the expression on Juju''s face as
she cried in Amos'' arms.
From then on, he never met Juju again until they both became adults.
Kesha had been waiting outside the gate for a long time.
Finally, she saw the people in the Granger family pushing Vincent out. When she noticed that Vincent''s
face was filled with sadness and fear, she knew that her n had gone well.
Steven had initially said that he was going to approach Auntie Valerie. Kesha was still worried because
her ns had fallen through many times because of Amos and Eudora.
She would be a fool if she did not learn from her past mistakes.
Therefore, she devised a n B.
Coincidentally, Kesha and Steven happened to overhear the conversation when Vincent went home
and told Bethany about the bullying incident the day before and how Juju had invited him over to her
ce.
Even though Bethany wasn''t happy to see them, it was still great for them to have received such an
important piece of news.
She had been waiting for Vincent to return home that morning. As soon as she saw Vincent, she
slipped the photo into his pocket while he was talking with Steven.
Vincent was unlikely to notice the photo in his pocket as kids were less aware of their surroundings.
Kesha bet that there was a decent chance that it might draw Eudora''s attention.
As soon as she imagined that Clearwater Bay must have been in havoc, Kesha was so thrilled that she
wanted to witness the scene personally.
However, she decided to hold back the thought.
She then left the ce with a smirk.
In the study, Juju was in deep guilt after Vincent left.
"What happened to Mommy? Did I hurt her?"
Amos instantly told Charlie to delete the copy of the footage and exined it to Juju.
"Your Mommy will be fine. She is very strong. But Juju, could you promise me that you would not be
upset in front of your Mommy? She is in a bad mood now. We must try our best to stay calm so that
she will feel better soon."
Eudora''s reaction a moment ago was very obvious. She must have discovered something. However,
she still held back her emotions in front of Amos. It was definitely because she didn''t want to upset
Amos.
Therefore, Amos had to approach this incident even more cautiously in order to not hurt Eudora''s
emotion further.
If she didn''t want to face it, then neither would they. As long as she was fine, he could pretend that
nothing had happened for the rest of his life.
Juju didn''t seem to understand it. However, she nodded her head when she heard her father saying
that her mother would get better soon.
"Okay, we will protect Mommy together."
