Chapter 766


    Even in such a situation, Amos maintained a calm outlook.


    He quickly grabbed Eudora''s hand.


    "Go quickly," he said.


    Next to Amos, a timer was flickering with red light. It was counting down with only about 50 seconds


    left.


    Eudora swiftly reached out to support him, saying, "I''ll help you out of this!"


    She stretched out her hand to undo the ropes on Amos''s body as she spoke.


    He grabbed her hand and said, "It''s toote. Wesley, get Eudora out of here."


    He knew that there was no way for him to leave. Mark was out for revenge. Initially, as he was watching


    the time run out, he had refused to make a sound. He thought that Eudora would leave if she could not


    find him.


    However, who would have thought?


    His wife was as stubborn as ever. He was sure that if he had not made a sound, she might continue


    searching for him.


    Hence, he had deliberately made a sound.


    He had wanted to guide her to the room next door, but he had underestimated her.


    This woman had be smart this time, and she had returned in less than a minute.


    Left with no choice, Amos quickly turned to Wesley.


    "Aren''t you going to take her away?"


    Hearing this, Wesley grabbed Eudora by her arm and said, "Madam, let me bring you out first!"


    "I''m not leaving!" She shook her head and continued, "Amos hasn''te out yet. How could I leave?"


    As she was saying so, she hurried to try and undo the ropes on Amos''s body. However, how could she


    do so?


    The ropes were bound tightly. She even tried using her teeth but to no avail.


    Behind her, Wesley suggested in a whisper, "Madam, please go and get the tools."


    That''s right! She had panicked to the point of confusion. Weren''t there tools outside? She turned and


    ran outside to get them, but Amos had seen the countdown on the timer. There were only ten seconds


    left.


    After giving a thoughtful look at Wesley, Amos lowered his voice.


    He said, "Back when this room had been built, it was used to store very important documents, so it has


    been very well designed to be fireproof, bulletproof, and explosionproof. Quickly get out of here, close


    the door behind you, and take Eudora away from here..."


    Wesley''s body shook, "Sir."


    Amos continued, "Are you not going to listen to me anymore? I''ve always known your feelings towards


    her. I believe that you can take good care of her!"


    "I..." Wesley looked at him in shock.


    He always thought that he had maintained calm enough. He had not expected Charlie, and even Mr.


    Granger, to see through him!


    However, Amos had never shown it at all.


    "No, Sir...Only you can take care of Madam. In fact, Madam only wishes for you to take care of her!"


    As he said that, he desperately continued to undo the ropes binding Amos.


    Tick, tick, tick...


    Amos watched as the seconds went down. Three, two, one...


    Suddenly, he yelled, "Eudora!"


    BOOM!!!


    A huge explosion sounded. Eudora, who had been running back with the toolbox, was blown away by


    the explosive force.


    The tools in her hands ttered to the ground. Hysterically, she cried out, "Amos!!!"


    In front of her, everything in the office had been knocked down by the impact of the explosion.


    Everything was in shambles.


    Meanwhile, the door of the secretpartment which Amos was in had been blown wide open. A fire


    was raging inside. The room had absorbed 90% of the bomb''s destructive force.


    Even so, the explosion had caused a huge crack in the wall of the building. It was extremely


    dangerous.


    Behind her, Clint had already climbed upstairs and grabbed Eudora upon seeing the scene.


    "Madam, what happened?" he asked.


    Eudora''s face was covered with tears, and her hands were trembling.


    "Amos...Amos and Wesley are inside..."


    Clint''s heart sank. As he gazed at the raging fire, an unprecedented fear rose inside him.


    There had been an explosion! And, Mr. Granger, he...


    He felt a stabbing pain in his chest, and his eyes were reddening as he held Eudora back.


    "Madam, you can''t go in there. It has already exploded in there!" he said.


    "No! Amos is still inside. He''s still waiting for me to rescue him! Look, I''vee with my tools. I can


    save him!"


    As Eudora spoke, she picked up the tools on the ground and showed them to Clint.


    Somehow, he felt that at this moment, she was already going crazy.


    "Madam..."


    "Don''t stop me!" she suddenly roared and struggled out of Clint''s grasp. He had no choice but to grab


    the fire extinguisher and rush forwards.


    Behind him, Harley and the bomb disposal experts who had hurried over had just arrived.


    Once they saw the scene, they all joined in to extinguish the fire.


    After Eudora ran in, she headed for the ce where they had been before. However, a cab at that


    spot had already fallen over, and there was no trace of Amos at all.


    The cab had been burnt, and there were still sparks from it.


    As though bewitched, Eudora grabbed at the nks of the cab with her bare hands.


    Her fingers were instantly scalded, but she remained unfazed.


    Hurriedly, Clint turned the fire extinguisher towards that direction to put out the fire. Both of them forced


    open the cab, but there was nothing beneath it.


    She looked around nkly.


    Eudora muttered to herself, "How could it be possible? I saw Amos here. How could he have


    disappeared?"


    The secretpartment had no windows. How could he have disappeared just like that?


    Just as she was thinking that, Clint suddenly pointed at the edge of the cab with trembling fingers,


    "Madam, look..."


    Eudora looked in the direction he was pointing at. Something was twinkling amidst the sparks in the


    corner.


    Eudora reached her hand out to pick the item up. It was a ring, or more specifically, the wedding ring of


    Eudora and Amos.


    Ever since the two of them had gotten officially married, Amos always had the ring on and had never


    taken it off.


    At that moment, the edges of the ring had already been destroyed by the explosives, and only the


    decorations atop the ring were still shimmering.

    Clint said with immense sorrow, "Even the ring was damaged. Mr. Granger, he..."


    Eudora''s legs went rubbery. "That''s impossible! Impossible!"


    She held the ring and frantically looked around until someone shouted, "President Granger is here..."


    She hurried over and saw Amos lying there, blood all over his body. Harley rushed forward to check his


    breathing with his eyes bloodshot and his voice choking with sobs.


    "Amos..." he called out.


    Eudora''s fingers trembled as she stepped forward.


    She sniffed and squeezed out a smile. "Hubby, I''m back. Open your eyes and look at me!"


    Harley felt a lump in his throat, "Eudora, he..."


    "Don''t talk! He''s tired. Don''t disturb him!" She rolled her eyes at Harley, "Didn''t we find Amos already?


    Why are you crying?"


    She turned back to Amos.


    She asked, "Amos, did you get hurt? I''ll carry you to the hospital, okay?"


    As she said that, she actually went over to carry Amos. However, even though Amos was much thinner


    now, he was still a tall man. After trying several times, Eudora barely picked him up and she staggered


    forward.


    Harley caught up to her again, "Eudora..."


    "Hush!" Eudora shook her head, "Amos loves to listen to me sing! I''ll sing for him."


    "In this lukewarm autumn, I stay by your side, as we silently watch the sparks dance by..."


    Halfway through the song, her voice gradually choked. Her body went limp, and she copsed straight


    to the ground.
