Eudora was still in shock as she reached out her hand to wipe away the tears at the corners of her eyes.

Amos pursed his lips, his eyes dimming. "As long as I still love you, it doesn't matter to me whether you still love me or not."

Eudora was exhausted and she no longer had the strength to argue with him.

She had no idea that Amos was such a persistent person. She didn't even know that she was the only one Amos was most certain of through his entire life.

After God knows how long, Amos finally said, "Eudora, we're here!"

When Eudora opened her eyes, she realized that the two of them had already arrived on a mountain in the outskirts of Greene City.

"Didn't you once say that my wish would come true if I were to make a wish to the meteor? I've checked and there's a Leo meteor shower tonight. This is the best place to watch it."

Eudora raised her head and looked up to the sky. At the same moment, a shooting star streaked across the sky above her head.

Amos hurried over and stood in front of Eudora. "I'll lend you my pocket."

Eudora was stunned and she realized that she had no pockets. While she was still in a daze, Amos had already grabbed her hand and put it into his.

Eudora immediately closed her eyes and made a wish.

She hoped that Amos and their children would be happy.

She hoped that Gordon, who had left, could have a peaceful life.

She hoped that she could escape Tyler's reins as soon as possible, and she could gain control over her own life once again.

Eudora opened her eyes after she was done with her wishes. Her thoughts raced when she saw Amos' closed eyes.

What was Amos' wishing about? He was so persistent, so he would definitely wish that she would return to his side, right? The next second, Eudora blurted out the question.

"What did you wish for?"

Amos looked at her with a smile and said, "I hope that all your wishes will come true."

Eudora's nose twitched, and she turned her head away hurriedly. "The wish won't come true if we say it out loud!"

Amos frowned. "I'll make a new wish then."

"You're so childish," Eudora said in a heartbeat.

Amos' frown deepened. "Is that one of my flaws? I'll keep that in mind."

Eudora shook her head. "No..."

"What are my flaws then?"

Eudora smiled bitterly. To her, Amos was a perfect man. All of his shortcomings were also his advantages.

However, she couldn't say it.

She withdrew her arm hurriedly and turned to walk to the side. "If you don't love a person, all his advantages will become his weaknesses. President Granger, you're so smart, so you should understand what I'm trying to say. We have seen the meteor shower. Let's go back now!"

Amos did not reach for her hand again. He suddenly realized that he couldn't lift his hand again because of her coldness.

He couldn't seem to hold her any longer.

Neither of them spoke a word on their way back. When they were about to reach the Holt residence, Eudora called for him to stop the car.

"My father and my flaneé will be unhappy to see us together. I'll just alight here."

She then unfastened her seat belt and got out of the car.

Amos did not raise his head. He merely watched her from the corner of his eyes as she slowly walked away. His whole heart seemed to have been soaked in poison, rotting away slowly.

He subconsciously reached out to hold her.

"Eudora..."

Eudora clenched her teeth and looked away.

"This is the last time I'm going to advise you to return to Rosaville City as soon as possible! You are not an ignorant person, so you should know that I wouldn't be happy even if you force me to go back with you. There are many women out there who are way more suitable for you. They will love you more than I do as long as you want them to. Also, if you still don't take good care of the children, I will take them away!"

After that, she immediately shrugged his hand away and turned around to run away.

She didn't want to do such a cruel thing, but why couldn't Amos just understand her intentions?

Eudora ran to the junction, took a sharp turn, and threw her whole body over to the wall. She leaned against the concrete, gasping for air.

She heard him starting the engine and driving away.

Only then did Eudora feel relieved. She trailed behind him and looked in the direction in which the car left, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.

It was not until the footsteps came from behind and Eudora suddenly turned around.

It was Fabian, and she didn't know how long he had been standing there. He looked at her.

"It seems that it will be difficult for me to pursue you, Miss George."

Eudora frowned. "It has nothing to do with him!"

She had said it very ruthlessly, but Fabian merely smiled.

"I would have believed you if you weren't so nervous. Don't worry. I'm not going to tell Uncle Tyler about it. This is a war between me and him. One day, I will prove to you with my sincerity, that I am more suitable for you than he is."

Eudora furrowed her brows. "I'm not as good as you think I am, and you should have heard it earlier today. I am the mother of two children. Mr. Nolan, there are women better than me out there! You don't have to waste your energy on me, do you?"

Fabian laughed even louder.

"What should I do? The more resisting you are, the more amazing I feel you are, and the more eager I am to have you...'

Eudora gritted her teeth and took a step back subconsciously.

"You're a pervert!"

Fabian was unperturbed. He looked at her retreating figure with a smile and said, "You could just call me whatever you like!"

Eudora walked even faster. She wanted to get rid of the psycho as soon as possible.

Once she disappeared, Fabian turned around and left.

The assistant behind him was a little puzzled. "Mr. Nolan, Miss George is right, isn't she? With your status, you could get any women that you like."

Fabian's lips twitched. "There's no one as impressive as the Holt Family! What's more, I'm very interested in that woman."

The assistant immediately fell silent. It was indeed ridiculous to say that a man like Fabian had fallen in love with Eudora at first sight. However, it might seem a little more convincing if it was indeed for the Holt Family.

After all, the power of the Holt Family was one of the strongest in Greene City. If the Nolan family could form an alliance with the Holt Family, then it would be equivalent to an alliance between the two most powerful families in the city.

That meant that he would only become even stronger!

It was undeniable that Mr. Nolan had done a very good job this time. If he could get into the Holt Family, he could probably accelerate the expansion of the Nolan family's business by at least ten years. Helen was already waiting at the entrance of the hotel when Amos returned.

She had thought that Amos would be contacting her after leaving the note the night before. She had waited for the entire day, but there was no sign of him anywhere.

She eventually went to ask the front desk herself and found out that Amos and the others had already left early in the morning.

Therefore, she stood by the door and waited for him. Fortunately, she finally saw Amos after waiting for a while.

Helen tidied up her clothes hurriedly and went up to him. "Mr. Granger..."

Amos' expression was grim. He was in a handsome suit, which was a tad messy. It was obvious that he was in a bad mood.

Helen said hurriedly, "Mr. Granger, is there something troubling you? Shall I treat you to a cup of coffee?"

Amos huffed.

"Get lost!"
