My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 212

That day, Auntie Valerie brought her little grandson with him. He was way older than Juju but the two

children had a great time playing together. They did not speak to each other but it was an inexplicably

harmonious sight to watch.

Eudora was very relieved and she went back to the office with Amos after lunch.

However, Eudora started yawning as soon as she left as she had a late night the day before.

Amos then patted his lap, "Rest for a bit. I'll wake you up when we reach the alley."

Eudora still needed to go to the construction site in the afternoon, so she did not refuse. She took a

cushion next to her and made it into a make-shift pillow. Before she fell asleep, she saw a patrol car

driving past them.

She took a glance at the vehicle and seemingly saw Wendy in the car.

"That is..."

"The investigation on Wendy's case is over and I think they're probably starting the court case. They

must be changing the venue of her lock-up!"

Eudora nodded. However, the next second, she saw another car following the patrol car. It was not

anything out of the ordinary, but from her seat, she could see a man holding a gun through the rearview

mirror of that suspicious car. "Amos, isn't that Caleb in the car?"

Amos was stunned and he hurriedly called out to Eudora, "Get out of the car. I'll chase them with the

driver."

"I'm not getting out of the car! Hurry up and follow them!"

Time was of the essence and Amos had no time to argue. Therefore, he hurriedly told the driver to

follow after the suspicious car. At the same time, Eudora was trying to call Harley. She had a feeling

that Harley had probably arranged someone to watch over Wendy but she was not sure until she saw it

with her own eyes.

Unexpectedly, she could not get through to Harley's mobile phone. She tried calling him several times

but to no avail.

"Red light!"

Amos said suddenly and Eudora put down her mobile phone hastily. The next second, she noticed a

huge truck in front of them moving towards the patrol car.

Amos glanced at Eudora with fear and instantly ordered the driver, "Turn around."

Amos' driver had exceptional driving skills. He drove away through a gap and stopped on the grass

next to the road.

Eudora immediately turned to look for the patrol car. Fortunately, the patrol car responded quickly and

avoided the incoming truck in a nick of time. However, the truck had collided onto one of the doors of

the patrol car. The damaged door flew open as the car came to a standstill. "Watch out for the

prisoner!" someone shouted.

Several armed officers immediately got off the car and surrounded it.

The suspicious car took this opportunity to crash into the patrol car once more. There were gunshots

this time.

Amos gritted his teeth and said, "Charlie!"

Soon, a black shadow rushed out of nowhere and ran over to the patrol car but it was too late. Caleb

had already pulled Wendy out of the vehicle when the officers were dodging the bullets.

After that, the suspicious car sped away.

Eudora shouted in a hurry, "Follow him!" Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

The driver understood and immediately stepped on the accelerator.

Caleb was driving away while observing the accident from the rear-view mirror. He snorted.

They had caused a major road accident with that collision just now. Surely the patrol car would not be

able to catch up to them now.

"What do you think? Am I awesome or what?" Caleb shouted.

Wendy was a little gloomy and she just nodded. She then asked, "Where are we going?"

"I've already made the necessary arrangements! We are going to the pier later. At night, we will board

the ship to Fragraland and take a flight overseas from there." Caleb was in a good mood. He suddenly

said, "Didn't you say that you don't like to live the dark life? I've made a lot of money so you can go

wherever you want to go!"

Wendy was stunned, "How did you get that money?"

Caleb chuckled and said, "Why do you care so much? I've told you before. Women should not interfere

in men's business."

Wendy was a little shocked and she suddenly recalled the first time she met Caleb.

She was abandoned since she was little. She did not know how old she was then, and she could not

even remember what her parents looked like.

Back then, Wendy had been wandering in the streets of Brooklyn for days. She was always hiding in

the dark but others would find ways to bully her. The streets in Brooklyn were so chaotic and there

were many thugs.

She dared not come out for days and she could only hide in a dark corner.

On that fateful day, she was extremely hungry.

She was starving and she thought she was going to die from hunger.

She tried to get up from the ground. At that moment, she saw someone coming towards her. That

person was very good looking. His clothes were very old and tattered, but he still looked very

handsome.

More importantly, he was holding a baguette in his hands. It was so long that she thought it was going

to be taller than her. Wendy looked at it eagerly. She thought that it would be worth it if she could have

a bite even if it cost her life.

That person felt her gaze and finally tore a piece of the bread and gave it to her. She was still hungry

after that small piece of bread, so he gave her some more.

After they had finished the bread together, he waved to her happily and said, "Goodbye, little sister!"

It turned out that he spoke very good English. It was the only language Wendy was familiar with.

Excitement started to bloom in her heart and she ran up to him haphazardly and shouted.

"Big brother, please don't leave me behind. I don't have anyone or anything!"

When Caleb promised to take her in, Wendy thought that she would have a good future to look forward

to. However, she did not expect that it would be the beginning of h*ll.

In the dim basement, Caleb was the assistant to the masked woman. He would help her trick little

children and Wendy was the first child he had tricked...

"Squeak-"

A sharp braking sound brought Wendy back to reality.

She saw Caleb's angry face as he gritted his teeth. "D*mn it! How dare they catch up to me?"

Wendy turned around and saw a car chasing after them. She could recognize it at a glance. It was

Amos' car. Amos...

Wendy gritted her teeth. Amos used to be her hope. She thought that she could finally live a good life

but she never expected herself to end up like this!

At the same time, several patrol cars had pulled over and blocked the intersection in front of them.

Harley swore, "Sh*t, do you think you could escape from me? Do you really think that I'm stupid?"

They were surrounded!

Caleb gritted his teeth and yelled, "D*mn! How dare you set me up!"

"Are we trapped?" Wendy asked suddenly.

"Of course not!" Caleb said.

"Are you still going to lie to me?"

Caleb turned around and looked at Wendy in the eye and said, "Trust me just this once. I know that I

have tricked you back then, but I've told you since the day I'd let you stay by my side, that I was never

going to lie to you again."

He slowly began to unfasten his seat belt. Wendy was stunned, "What are you doing?"

The next second, Caleb stopped the car and got off with his gun.

He aimed and shot at the tires of the cars in front of him. The cars lost control and began to swerve. In

that interval, Caleb shouted at Wendy, who was still in the car.

"Wendy, quickly, drive away. Remember the route I told you..."
