"You're not allowed to laugh!" He gritted his teeth. Then, he said, "I order you to leave this place immediately. Otherwise, I'll call my secretary to file a lawsuit right now!" Naomi's smile faded away in a second. "There is indeed something wrong with your body, Mr. Olsen. No wonder you refuse to accept any woman. I feel truly sorry for Miss Hayes. If you two had really succeeded in the blind date, wouldn't that mean that she will be widowed?" "Shut up!" Culver turned around and slowly approached Naomi. "Since you've said so, why don't you have a try, Miss George?" Naomi panicked and hurriedly covered her chest. "Don't come near me!" However, Culver was in a fit of anger. How could he not approach her just because she told him not to? As she spoke, he had already stood in front of her. Culver lowered his head. They were incredibly close to each other. Just as Culver leaned forward, Naomi waved her hand and was about to punch him w
Naomi felt a buzz in her head, and everything before her eyes went blank. She did not come back to her senses until the big hand on her waist suddenly leaned over. She subconsciously wanted to push it away, but Culver pulled her towards him with more force. "You...how could you do this!" Norman shouted angrily. Beside them, Judy covered her face with her hands and ran out crying. The faces of her parents also turned sour. After leaving a casual goodbye, they left with dark faces. Norman and Marilyn hurriedly chased after them. It was only when Culver was left in the room with Naomi that Culver let go of her. The next second, Naomi slapped him! With a loud sound, the silence in the room was broken. "How dare you hit me?" Naomi's palms were numb as she said, "Why can't I, you stinking rogue?!" Culver gritted his teeth and asked, "Rogue?" It was the first time in his life that he had heard someone call him that. He had alwa
Naomi shuddered at the way Culver called her, and then she opened her mouth slowly. "Nice to meet you, Auntie." Marilyn looked at Naomi with displeasure. She ignored Naomi and turned to look at Culver. "Don't think that I'll believe you just because you bought someone back. If you want to stop Judy from marrying into our family, I won't agree to that!" "It's true. It's up to you whether you want to believe me or not. If you don't care about the reputation of the Olsen family, you can do whatever you want. In short, everyone in the industry knows that Naomi is my girlfriend!" "You..." Marilyn was so angry that she started to sway and was about to fall down. Naomi subconsciously reached out to hold her, saying, "Auntie, you look like you're in poor health. Do you often feel a tightness in the chest and have headaches?" Culver was stunned. Marilyn really was good at acting. Marilyn frowned and said, "Miss, stop putting on an act, thinking th
Then, while Emma was dumbfounded, Culver stood in front of Naomi. "No one dares to go back on their words when it comes to me. I will never let such a thing happen! You are no different!" After that, he left in satisfaction. Naomi really couldn't help swearing. "Is he crazy?" On the contrary, Emma was extremely curious. "Naomi, since when did you have such a good relationship with Mr. Olsen?" Naomi was about to explode! "A good relationship? I needed to buy us some time, therefore I promised to help him. I didn't expect him to be so strange!" Emma was a little worried. "Miss Naomi, you're not selling your body, are you?" No way! "Selling my body? Do you think I'm that easy to be bullied? I'm smart enough!" Emma covered her face and asked, "Really?" "Am I not?" Naomi did not want to argue with Emma, so she urged, "Forget it, let's go to bed! Who knows what that maniac will do tomorrow?" ......
As the woman shouted, someone went to notify the security guards. The security guards rushed over and surrounded Naomi. "Miss, please follow us out!" Naomi frowned and said, "I am waiting for someone here!" "Sorry, we don't welcome you here!" The security guard acted in a very firm way, causing the crowd to cheer. However, they had no idea what the truth was! Naomi did not reckon that she was in the wrong, therefore she naturally would not leave. Then, the manager of the shopping mall arrived. The manager was a middle-aged woman who looked like she hated mistresses very much. Therefore, she was even ruder towards Naomi. "Young girls nowadays think that they look very pretty, but for a little money, they would use their beauty to seduce men and forget about their dignity." Naomi frowned, but she did not hesitate to retort. "The world has evolved so much already, but some people are blind to the truth." "You..." The manage
Culver pulled the corners of his mouth into a smile and agreed. She was already a violent woman from the beginning. Did he really think that she would change her personality? He thought of her arguing with the few women just then. It seemed that it had not been as effective as her fighting them directly! Naomi's voice rang in his ear, "You called me out to deal with those women, right? Now that I'm done dealing with them, can I leave now?" "Of course not!" Culver frowned and said, "We have yet gotten to the matter I called you here for!" "What is it?" "Accompany me to see my mother!" Naomi was surprised. "No way! Mr. Olsen, even a donkey needs time to rest. I've just finished this battle, and you want me to go into another one?" Culver gave her a sidelong glance and said, "Be good, you're not a donkey!" Naomi was speechless. She almost spat out a mouthful of blood. "I don't care. Anyway, this is too much wor
"You..." Norman's face darkened. He was already of a certain age, and the Olsen family had always been stern when educating their children, therefore they were used to treating the younger generation like this. However, no one had ever talked back to him like this. Even Culver, the most influential figure in public, still had to listen to his parents' arrangements when he was back home. It was the first time that someone had said that to him. How could he stand it? "Men, get Miss George out of here! She's not allowed to enter our house again." "Fine, I'll leave!" Also enraged, she added, "I don't want to be here either!" After that, she was about to leave. She was dragged back by Culver. He whispered to her in a low voice, "Don't forget about your duties." Naomi was speechless. She had indeed forgotten about the deal. Generally speaking, there were no strange elders in the Granger family. She had lived in Clearwater Bay with h
Marilyn's voice sounded through the phone as she asked, "How are things now?" Loraine reported softly, "We've arrived! Everything went smoothly along the way." "Then..." Marilyn paused for a moment, and then she asked, "Do they look like they're not faking it?" Loraine hesitated and said, "I have yet to see anything amiss so far. Just now, when Miss George returned, she dragged Mr. Culver into a room!" Stunned, Marilyn quickly said, "Go and listen to what they are talking about!" Loraine hurried over with her phone in hand. At that moment, Naomi and Culver were in a small guest room downstairs. However, Naomi had no idea that it was a guest room. She just wanted to find a place to talk to Culver privately, therefore she directly pushed the door open and entered. Loraine tiptoed over and placed her ear on the door. As soon as she positioned herself outside the door, she heard a faint sound from inside. "What are you doing? Don't you dare t
Naomi immediately changed the topic by saying, "I'm going to the meeting." As they spoke, her phone rang again. The secretary took a look and said, "It's from Mr. Olsen." Naomi said, "I'm late to the meeting! I'll talk to him after the meeting!" The meeting lasted for a few hours. After a few hours, Naomi stood tiredly in front of the sink. She looked more mature than she did before. She was indeed no longer the innocent girl she used to be. She remembered that before she went to the meeting, the secretary had mentioned that there was a message from Culver. She took out her phone and clicked on the message. The next second, her hand trembled, and her phone fell to the ground. ...... When Naomi arrived at the funeral home, Culver was already waiting for her at the entrance. "When did it happen?" Naomi tried hard to hold back her emotions along the way, but the moment she opened her mouth, her emotions flowed out. "Last ni
Although Naomi and Eddison were reluctant, they submitted under Amos' domineering aura. The next day, they packed up their things and went back to Rosaville City. As soon as the car was about to turn, it was stopped by Amos. "Go straight to the Granger Mansion." Eddison asked curiously, "Why are we going there?" "You're going to take over the Granger family's business, that's why!" Naomi teased. Before Naomi could finish gloating, Amos teased her, "You too." The two siblings' faces instantly stiffened, as though they were forced to resign to fate. Indeed, the first thing they did after they returned to the mansion was to ask Alfred to clean up the two master bedrooms for Naomi and Eddison. Although the two rooms were master bedrooms, they weren't totally identical. Alfred gave the better room to Eddison. Before they entered the house, Alfred noticed that Naomi seemed to be rebelling. After thinking about it, Alfred explained t
After coaxing Eudora for a while, Naomi managed to persuade her to eat a few mouthfuls of food. She was finally much calmer. However, it could be seen with the naked eye that she had lost some weight. Naomi was incredibly worried. While Eudora was on a walk with Eddison, she sat in front of Amos's bed. She said, "Dad, hurry up and wake up! Mom misses you so much that she's about to fall sick! Are you really willing to let her go on like that?" Naomi sniffed, "Mom was so beautiful when she was young. She looks really pretty now, too. If you don't wake up soon, I'll find someone else for her! When that time comes, don't regret it!" There was still no movement from the person on the bed. Naomi sighed in disappointment. When she turned around, a hand suddenly grabbed her sleeve. Naomi's heart skipped a beat of joy. When she turned around, she saw Amos staring at her. He yelled, "Don't you dare!" "Dad, you're awake!" Naomi was incredibly
"Mom, don't worry, Dad will be fine!" Naomi comforted her. Eudora hurriedly shook her head again, "What are you talking about? Of course, Amos will be fine. He's just angry with me! Where's my medicine? If you don't help me take it, I'll take it myself!" As she said, she got up from her seat. Naomi stopped her again and said, "I'll get it for you! Just wait here!" Eudora sat down obediently and reached out to hold Amos' hand. Naomi took a few steps outside and heard Eudora murmuring to Amos behind her. "Did you hear that? I'm being a good girl. Hurry up and wake up!" Naomi's nose twitched for no reason. She hurriedly restrained herself and quickly walked out. Her parents had been in love with each other for their whole lives. She had witnessed their journey since she was young. Eddison might not know about their history too well as he was really young back then. She remembered the time when there had been a great misunderstanding be
Amos hung up on the call and picked up the medicine that Eudora had not taken just then. He poured a glass of water and walked over to Eudora. "You haven't finished the medicine yet!" Eudora looked at the medicine in distress, pleading, "I think my body is much better now. I don't need to take it!" "That won't do," Amos remained strong-willed as always. "This medicine is good for your health!" "Medicines are drugs too!" Eudora was still putting on a fight. "You want to poison me to death, don't you?" Amos said helplessly, "Are you afraid of drugs, or do you want to suffer instead?" Eudora was rendered speechless. "Either way, I won't take it! It's too big of a pill to swallow. I know you're trying to poison me to death, so that you can find yourself a younger wife!" Amos was dumbfounded. "There are no younger girls who are more beautiful than you." "That's true!" Eudora nodded, and immediately looked into Amos's smiling
The Granger Mansion had been well taken care of, so there was nothing for Naomi to worry about. Hence, she decided to go straight back to Clearwater Bay. Amos and Eudora were not around. Although Clearwater Bay was in Cindy's care, it still felt desolate. In the evening, Cindy prepared a lot of delicious food for Naomi! "Your parents don't know that you're back in Rosaville City, right?" "No, they don't!" Naomi said after taking a sip of the mushroom soup. "Mom is in poor health, therefore I haven't told her yet. I'll go see her once I'm done with the matters here." "That's great! She must miss you and Sugar Bun." "What about you?" Naomi looked at Cindy with a smile. "Is everything alright between you and Uncle Charlie?" "Everything is fine! With everyone supervising him, he doesn't dare treat me badly!" As the two of them talked, Charlie protested from the outside. "Are you talking behind my back again with Miss Naomi?" Charl
It was only then that Culver remembered that Naomi was also in the kitchen. He concealed the panic on his face and pretended to be calm as he picked up the salmon next to him and put it on the pan. The next second, hot oil splashed out of the pan. Naomi pulled him away, "Mr. Olsen, don't act like you know how to cook!" Culver was not willing to give up. When he heard her words, he remained calm. "I can do this." "Stop lying!" Naomi exposed him without mercy. Then, she picked up the spatula next to her and flipped the salmon over. Culver stood behind her, watching her pour her heart and soul into cooking. It reminded him of the time she used to live in his house in Greene City. During that time, she had cooked all kinds of food for him every day. However, he had never actually seen her in action. It turned out she was still pretty as ever when she cooked. "Hand me the sauce!" It was not until Naomi called him
The doctor's face was solemn, "If it fails, he will only have two months to live!" Naomi fell silent. She finally understood why Nelson refused to undergo the surgery! "Miss George, you see..." "Are there not any other solutions, or at least something with a higher success rate?" Wasn't five percent too low of a success rate? It would be as if they were sending Nelson to death's door. The doctor shook his head, "It's not that we don't want to do something to help the patient. It's our wish for every patient to recover and live a healthy life, but Mr. Luther is in critical condition. We've really done our best! Moreover, his condition is deteriorating very quickly every day. It's possible that the success rate will lessen tomorrow! Therefore, we have to make a decision as soon as possible!" Naomi started to panic a bit. "Please let me think about it." She felt like an executioner at the moment. Her decision was the key to Nelson's su
"I don't like her anymore! If you want me to go back to the Olsen Group, please stop bugging me with your words!" After saying that, Culver made a call to Aaron. "Mobilize the tracking device that I asked you to create for Nelson, and find out where he has gone! " "Yes, Sir!" After getting a reply from Aaron, Culver made another phone call to the company. "Call the press and make an appointment for a press conference at three o'clock in the afternoon. I'll explain everything about this matter!" "For the stock market, just follow my orders." Marilyn looked at Culver, composed as ever, and suddenly felt a sense of unfamiliarity. Although he was the same person he had always been, it had been sometime since she felt this way. He had returned to his former self. ...... Nelson sat on the railing along the river as he stared at the surface of the water in a daze. He did not even turn his head when he heard footsteps behind him
