My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 999

Hearing Eudora's words, Naomi remembered it too.

"That's right. Where is Nelson?"

As they were talking, the door swung open, and a man came in.

"Are the both of you awake?"

Without thinking, Eudora got up and stood in front of Naomi.

"What do you want? Don't hurt us. Everything can be negotiated!"

After all, this was not her first kidnapping.

The man laughed instantly. He said, "Very well, I like talking with a straightforward person like you. But I

haven't done thinking about what I want yet. I'll tell you later!"

With that, the man was about to head out.

Naomi couldn't help but ask, "What about Nelson? What did you do to him?"

The man snorted and said, "Nelson? Are you talking about the guy who's not afraid of death? He's not

quite as smart as you are. He tried bargaining with us and asked us to let the both of you go first. He is Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

quite the daydreamer, isn't he?

Do you think it's easy for us to kidnap you all? How dare he say that! We taught him a lesson. He

should still be alive, though I bet he is not doing too well!"

Naomi was dumbfounded and exclaimed, "You won't get away with murder!"

The man sneered, "Do you think people like us are afraid of your threat?"

Eudora tugged at Naomi and shook her head at her.

"My daughter is immature. Don't bother arguing with her. Nelson is a friend of hers. As long as you can

ensure his safety, money is not an issue."

The man snorted once more. He said, "Unlike kids nowadays, you are more polite. Let's call it a day!

We're tired of beating up the guy, so let's rest until we figure out how much money we want!"

After that, the man turned around and left.

Naomi was a bundle of nerves as she said, "Mom, will Nelson be okay?"

Eudora shook her head and reassured her, "Don't worry. People like them are after money, they

probably won't really kill anyone. When I have the chance, I'll ask again."

Naomi nodded and then looked at Eudora.

"Mom, why did you stand in front of me just now? I know self defense. You don't have to protect me

next time. I can protect you!"

Only then did Eudora come to her senses and said, "I'm fine. It's a mother's instinct!"

Soon, dawn broke.

Amos still didn't find anything. Tina sent some food over and tried to persuade him.

"Amos, please eat something first! Eudora won't feel at ease if she knew that you didn't eat or drink

anything!"

Amos shook his head and rejected her, "No, I'll go and have a look again!"

He lost his appetite at the thought that Eudora might not get anything to eat.

Tina was helpless. She knew it would turn out like this. However, there was nothing she could do. She

was in no mood for breakfast, let alone Amos.

After Amos went outside, his cell phone rang. He picked it up and asked anxiously.

"Speak!"

Harley spoke solemnly, "The perpetrators are very likely to be a group of kidnappers that we've been

investigating recently. This crew has been kidnapping and blackmailing rich people for

money..."

Harley hesitated for a moment, and Amos's heart skipped a beat.

"What else?"

"It's nothing..."

"Say it! What else have they done?"

Only then did Harley tell him. He said, "They are quite ruthless. There were a few times that the

hostages were murdered even after getting the money!"

The words sent a chill down Amos's spine, and he clenched his fist tightly.

Amos gritted his teeth while replying, "That won't happen! Eudora and Naomi can take care of

themselves. We shouldn't waste time worrying about them. The most important thing right now is to find

them! Where are they?"

Harley passed the phone to Clint. Clint answered his question, "We only have a rough idea. We are still

trying to locate them more precisely..."

"Where is it?" Amos got impatient.

Clint frowned and said, "Sir, the area in question is quite wide. It's better to wait for us..."

"Tell me!" Amos scolded in a harsh voice.

"Sir..."

"I can't wait here. Continue with your investigation. Just tell me the approximate location first, i'll go

there myself!"

Clint had no choice but to tell him about it.

"Roadside surveillance recorded a car going down the mountain. We could only make out a vague

image of the vehicle, but it is probably not far from the foot of the mountain. There is a forest nearby,

we suspect..."

Before Clint could finish his words, Amos hung up.

Amos finally came to his senses. He had thought that they would be still on the mountain. But, how

could that be?

The mountain was his territory, they would definitely not stay here.

They would be discovered if they did so.

However, they couldn't go too far, so the best place for them to hide was the foot of the mountain!

Once he cleared his thoughts, he rushed towards the location that Clint had sent him.

On the other side, the men had left and hadn't come back. It wasn't until lunchtime when someone

came to deliver lunch to them that

Eudora took the opportunity to ask.

"Have you made up your mind? We want to go home..."

The man snorted and said, "I respect you for being straightforward, but don't push it. Do you need to be

reminded who the kidnappers are here?"

Eudora nodded at once and replied, "Yes, of course, you're the one in charge here, I'm just asking.

How's Nelson doing?"

"He's not going to die!" The man stormed out after saying that.

It wasn't until he was outside that he started complaining hushedly.

"Damn it, I've never been so mad! How did I end up being questioned by the hostage?"

Another man burst into laughter.

"What's wrong? Can't you stand it anymore?"

"Yeah! They are the wife and daughter of the richest man in Rosaville City! I think he would pay up

even if we demanded a billion dollars. With all that money, we could quit!"

The other man was delighted and said,"It's possible, right?"

"How is that possible? Didn't we agree with the people who hired us that we're just here to teach them

a lesson?"

"Yes! But after the lesson, we get the final say, don't we? There is no need for people like us to be

ethical."

The two of them exchanged a dirty look and grinned simultaneously.

"You're right! I am too dumb, I should have thought of that!"

As soon as he finished his words, two people in masks came in. The one in front seemed like a woman

judging by her figure.

The one standing behind was the one who hired them to kidnap Eudora and Naomi.

Both of the kidnappers stopped talking and got up to welcome them.

"You're here at last! What shall we do next? They are restless!"

The woman in the lead seemed surprised.

"Restless? Who?"

"Mrs. Granger! She said she wanted to pay the ransom and go home as soon as possible!"

The woman smiled faintly and said, "Did you really believe her?"
