Before Eudora could recover from the shock, she realized that the man who had stopped her from falling was Wesley.
Wesley took the stick from the ground and began fighting with Mark. He shouted, "Madam, run!"
Wesley's skills was above average thus Mark was an easy opponent. But if another person joined Mark, it would be hard to predict the outcome of the fight.
Eudora frowned. She picked up the rock from the ground and threw it at Mark.
She had learned shooting with Juju previously, therefore, her shooting skill could be considered quite good.
Her shot aimed right at Mark's knee. As Mark bent his leg, Wesley took the opportunity to kick him. With that kick, Mark wasn't able to stand up.
Turning his head, Wesley hurriedly grabbed Eudora and said, "Madam, let's get out of here fast."
However, the two kidnappers were not giving up. They quickly chased Eudora, Sugar Bun and Wesley from the back.
Eudora ran with all her might, only hearing the sound of the wind whooshing in her ears.
After running for a long time, her eyes began to blur.
Eudora stopped and gasped for air. She grabbed Wesley's arm.
"I can't run anymore. I'll hand you Sugar Bun and you take him out of here."
Wesley was shocked and he said, "No..."
How could it be possible?
"Listen to me!" Eudora shook her head, "As long as Sugar Bun is fine, I'll be okay!"
Wesley resisted, "But you are our madam!"
Eudora was extremely anxious that the men would caught up with them. Thus, she replied, "Yes, so shouldn't you listen to me? Take the child back and find someone to save me, quick!"
After that, Eudora placed Sugar Bun into Wesley's arms and pushed them forward, "Hurry up!"
As Sugar Bun left his mother's cuddle, he suddenly burst into tears.
He shouted as he cried, "Mom..."
Eudora's heart swelled.
"I'm sorry, I broke my promise again. Remember, you must grow up healthily!"
With a steely heart, Wesley returned and stood before Eudora again.
"I promised that I would bring you and the young master back! If I just leave like this, how can I face President Granger in the future?"
After that, he handed back Sugar Bun into Eudora's arms.
Sugar Bun immediately wrapped himself around Eudora tightly, "Mommy..."
Eudora's heart was soften as Sugar Bun hugged himself in her arms.
But there was no time for cuddles and kisses. The two men had caught up with them. Wesley stepped forward and positioned himself in front of Eudora and Sugar Bun. He looked at both of the men coldly and said, "Come on! Let's fight!"
Immediately, the fight broke out and, as Eudora predicted, Wesley was at a disadvantage in the fight.
She was keen to help Wesley but she was so dizzy due to the run that she could barely hold half a breath.
In that moment, she reminded herself that she must not faint, or else, Sugar Bun would be really frightened.
Seeing Wesley had lost the fight, the irascible man grabbed Eudora and said, "B*tch, you made me a fool? I'll beat you to death."
That man kicked Eudora's body twice. Eudora couldn't dodge in time, she could simply close her eyes and tightly protect her son.
Eudora was expecting the third kick but the third kick didn't land. It turned out that the irascible man screamed and bounced off like a ball.
Eudora looked up against the light and saw Amos's anxious face.
He held his wife and his son in his arms and said, "I'm sorry, I'm late..."
Eudora smiled faintly and said, "As long as you're here, it's not too late..."
She was terrified by his sudden disappearance. In the past two days, she had been used to holding Sugar Bun in her arms all the time, whether it was for eating or sleeping.
Immediately, she sat up and only realized that she was already in the hospital.
The faint murmur of crying sound came to her ears. "Was it Sugar Bun?" She thought to herself.
Eudora ignored the fact that her body was still hurting from the kicks. She hurriedly pulled out the infusion tube on her hand and got off the bed.
Next to Eudora's room, Sugar Bun was crying since the time he had woken up from his sleep.
Amos thought that Sugar Bun's crying was due to the incident happened previously, so he and Juju had been trying to coax him.
In the past, Sugar Bun had been an obedient child, but at that moment nothing could work to calm him down.
Just as they started to feel helpless, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Eudora called out anxiously, "Sugar Bun..."
The weeping stopped abruptly, Amos and Juju looked at this scene astonishingly.
The next second, Sugar Bun showed a brilliant smile towards Eudora with dried tears staining his cheeks. He stretched out his two tiny, chubby arms towards Eudora, wanting a hug from her.
"Mommy..."
Eudora felt a surge of warmth in her heart and hurriedly ran over to hold her son.
"It's great that you're all right. Fortunately, you're all fine."
Juju poked the back of Amos's hand in shock, "Dad, does it hurt?"
Amos shook his head and his eyes turned red. Having been through countless dangers, never had he expected that the delicate scene before him could bring tears into his eyes.
Amos sniffed and his lips curled into a smile.
"It doesn't hurt. It's sweet..."
