Chapter 801

Gary utilized his connections to get people to help out. When Oscar heard that Eva had caused yet another fuss, he immediately put his work aside so that he could go to Amelia's side. Little did he expect that Stephanie and Isabella would show up at the office at that moment.

Stephanie asked, "Oscar, where are you going during working hours?"

Oscar merely gave them a fleeting glance before walking out.

Stephanie crossed her arms and suggested, "Isabella, why don't we follow Oscar? I'm sure Amelia is the only person that can make Oscar so anxious. If we follow him, we might even get to witness a good show."

Isabella didn't express her opinion. With that, they trailed behind Oscar.

Oscar drove at a blazing speed before he arrived at Amelia's place. When he appeared, Amelia ran toward him desperately as if she had just found her lifebuoy. She voiced anxiously, "Oscar, we can't let anything happen to Eva."

Even though the look in Oscar's eyes was grim, he still patiently tried to console Amelia by saying, "Don't worry. Eva won't do anything rash. I can guarantee she will return after she thought things through."

Amelia knew Oscar had a point, but she was so worried that she let her emotions get the better of her. Besides that, she wasn't sure what James had told Eva, so she couldn't tell how Eva would react to the man's words.

If Eva really did something foolish, it would be too late for us to do anything. How should I explain this to the Winters family, then?

Amelia pondered as she started to panic.

"Amelia, what happened? Why are there so many people around here?" Stephanie's shrill voice sounded.

Amelia's expression changed when she heard that voice. She promptly suppressed her anxiety before looking at Stephanie. "Why are you here, Stephanie?"

Stephanie shrugged. "I was planning to show Isabella around in the company, but we ran into Oscar leaving in a hurry, so we decided to come over. Looks like we get to watch a good show."

Amelia pursed her lips in silence as she couldn't be bothered to argue with Stephanie while she was preoccupied with Eva's matter.

"Go home," Oscar instructed coldly.

You guys go ahead with what you were doing. Isabella and I are going to walk around. It's been a long time since I last came to the seaside." Stephanie extended her arms, enjoying the cool breeze. That was when she noticed a figure floating on the surface of the sea. The woman then exclaimed in shock, "Is that a human? She looks like she's trying to commit
