One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1135 I Will Do Anything for You
Eddison turned back as he heard Amos' voice. Amos and Jarred happened to come out from the study room. They had probably overheard his conversation with Eudora just then. At the thought of that, he no longer beat around the bush as he said candidly, "I won't accept a forced marriage." Jarred burst into a rage right away. He said, "Is this how you're going to treat me?" "The news about Rachel and me is unreal. Nothing has happened between us. If you still have doubts, I can repeat all the details of the matter once again. It would be impossible for me to marry her." "Do-don't go too far!" Jarred couldn't help but cough, and Amos said coldly to his son. Amos said coldly to his son, "Eddison, Mr. Gellert and I have already agreed that the wedding will be held in three days. You can't go anywhere until then." Eudora was also shocked by the announcement. "Why is this so sudden?" Amos smiled at Eudora and said, "It's okay, don't wor
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1136 Conflict
Eudora had a terrible sleep. She felt that she was grabbed by a pair of large hands, making her unable to move. Originally, she had wanted to catch up on her sleep in the morning, but she was woken up by the noise outside. "What should we do? Young Master Eddison hasn't eaten for an entire day!" "What are Mr. and Mrs. Granger thinking? Are they going to watch Eddison being starved to death?" "Hush, don't let Mrs. Granger hear you!" Eudora was agitated instantly. She hastily dashed out of her room. The two housekeepers outside her room, who were chatting just then, shut their mouths at once while Eudora headed straight for Eddison's room. The door of his room was locked, and Cindy stood there with a tray of breakfast in her hands. "Young Master Eddison, please have your breakfast." Eudora directly took over the tray from Cindy's hands, saying, "Let me do it!" Cindy was staggered as she tried to cover up, "Madam, it's not what y
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1137 She Was Not a Good Wife
Eudora and Amos had been together for roughly twenty years. It was the first time he said that he wouldn't give in to her! His words distressed Eudora. She pouted and said, "Well, we'll see!" After that, she turned around, took her handbag, and went out. Amos stopped her, "Are you going back to release Eddison?" He was indeed her husband, able to see through her intentions easily, Eudora pursed her lips while Amos continued to speak. "You won't be able to find him, since I've already instructed someone to take him away." Eudora looked at him incredulously and said, "Amos, what on earth are you trying to do?! Why do you have to do this?" She was about to blow her top, and it concerned Amos. "I'm doing this for his own good. You can rest assured that I will take good care of him." In his heart, he was hoping that Eudora would not be agitated by the matter. Of course, Eudora failed to remain unfazed. "He is our child
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1138 I Love You
Eudora asked Cindy to accompany her in paying a visit to Eddison. Cindy had not lied to her. Eddison had indeed eaten the food, but he was still morose and rebelling against Amos. Eudora stood outside the room and turned to look at Cindy. "I want to speak to him privately." Cindy made an excuse and went out. After that, Eudora sat down and leaned against the wall. "Eddison, if you really want to leave, I'll let you go!" It was still silent inside, but after three seconds, footsteps slowly approached the door. Eudora knew that he had come near the door. She pursed her lips together and continued to speak. "I never lie. It's just that you have to tell me the reason you refuse to marry Miss Gellert. Is it really because you can't accept a forced marriage? Is there another reason?" In fact, Clint's words were right. Rachel and Eddison would make a good match. He had been impatient since he was a child whereas Rachel was a ra
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1139 You All Will Be Sorry for This Someday
In fact, Amos had already made up his mind. He would go to the Gellert family together with Eddison after he released him from being grounded to elucidate the matter of their marriage. Unexpectedly, Jarred had come first. He was rather courteous in the face of Jarred's attitude. After all, the Granger family was in the wrong for reneging on the agreement. "Mr. Gellert, it's indeed our fault that we failed to keep our end of the agreement, but we will bear the full responsibility for this matter." Jarred's voice trembled with outrage as he said, "Take responsibility?" "I really didn't expect your son to swindle my daughter!" Amos was perplexed, so he asked, "Mr. Gellert, we won't shirk any responsibility in this matter. Nevertheless, it doesn't mean that you can simply slander us!" "Eddison has duped Jillian into giving him hundreds of thousands of dollars. Well, such an amount of money is actually not a big deal for families like ours. However,
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1140 Pretend to Be Gentle
Rachel had an important job that needed her presence on that day. It was not until she finished her work that she knew Jarred had gone to the Granger family and picked a fight with Eddison. She hurriedly went over, only to find that Jarred had come out of the Granger family's house. "Dad, it's not Eddison's fault. I'll explain things to you." Jarred said contentedly, "It's settled!" Rachel looked at him suspiciously. "Dad?" she asked. "What's wrong? Do you not believe me? Don't think that I'm unaware of what you are thinking! You like him very much, don't you? Anyway, you two will get married soon." "Get married?" Rachel was even more disconcerted as she hurriedly asked, "Dad, what did you say to them?" "Nothing special. I've just made it clear to them. Eddison is quite outstanding. After finding out that you gave him the money, he said that he wants to take responsibility for his actions. Now, let's go home." "I'll go and take a lo
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1141 Different Sides of Culver
Naomi asked incredulously, "What did you say?" "Don't you want to go home? I've been in Rosaville City for so long, but I haven't seen your parents yet. So, I'll go back with you tomorrow." "I don't think that's a good idea." Naomi didn't want Culver to go back with her. She always felt that she and Culver belonged to two different worlds. It irked her to think that she was connected to him in various aspects of life. Although the Granger family didn't need to be afraid of him, she didn't want her parents to be worried about her. If she were to bring him back, everyone would think that he was her boyfriend. That would cause a lot of trouble. Culver frowned as he asked, "Why do you seem displeased?" She was stumped by his question. There was a heavy atmosphere in the corridor. Naomi shook her head and said, "No! We're friends, so of course I'm pleased to hear that. It's just that it's my personal affairs, so it's not very conve
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1142 The Wedding Night
Indeed, Naomi was moved at that moment. She didn't expect Culver to notice her dejection. However, the feeling only lasted for a brief moment. She quickly calmed herself down. "No! It's just that I can't help sniffing during a windy day. The cold temperature always gives me a runny nose. It's not a big deal." Culver thought for a while before he said, "I don't like liars." Naomi was at a loss for words. "If you don't tell me, I'll go to your house by myself. I'm capable of doing that, and you know it." Naomi got nervous at once. "No!" Culver always behaved perversely. If he really came to Naomi's house, he would certainly cook up a fuss. "Fine, you win. I did cry just now, but it's because I was helping my mother to slice onions. You get it right? Onions are ingredients that will stimulate people's eyes to produce tears." Culver paused again for a few seconds before saying, "Don't you have a chef in your house? I'll ask

One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1222 As Long as I Have You in My Life (The End)
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
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1221 You're Going to Become a Grandmother
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
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1220 Unspeakable Words
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
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1219 Is He Abandoning Me?
"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
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1218 He's Angry With Me
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
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1217 Serving My Wife
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
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1216 Hidden Merit and Fame
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
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1215 She’s An Expert
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
One Night Stand With That Beggar Chapter 1214 She Had Made Her Choice
"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
