The dished were soon served on the table. The table next to Amos was full of joy. However, Amos was alone. He chewed on the food silently, but they all tasted bland. While he was eating, Harley came in with a group of people. At the first glance, he saw Amos sitting there alone. He hurriedly brushed those people away and walked over to his table happily. "Amos, what are you doing here alone? You look like you're in a good mood!" Eudora could obviously recognize Harley's voice. Upon hearing this, she immediately knew that Amos was next to her. She furrowed her brows and heard Harley say, "Oh my God, why did you order so much? It's such a waste, isn't it?" Amos frowned. "Just mind your own business, will you?" Harley was confused. "What's going on? Did I offend you or something?" As soon as he finished speaking, the person at the opposite table had already stood up. The familiar silhouette made Harley lift his head subconsciously. At that i
Christopher was stunned. He had been treating Juju like his own daughter over the years. This child was willing to get close to him, but he became a little uncertain because of her sudden question. "What's wrong?" Juju smiled and said, "Nothing, Uncle Gellert, you treat me very well, but I don't know why I kept thinking about the uncle who was sitting in the wheelchair just now. Mommy, he's so pitiful!" A chill immediately went down Eudora's spine. Was it really because they were father and daughter? Juju had only seen him twice, but she was already so fond of him. She hurriedly said with a stern voice, "Juju, that uncle has his own family too, how could he be pitiful? If you see him again, try not to interact too much with him." Juju was stunned. "Does that uncle have his own child? Is his child cuter than me?" She seemed to be jealous. Eudora frowned and said, "No, but he is not related to us. We shouldn't poke into other people's businesses.
Although Eudora had been hoping that he would not appear in front of her, Amos somehow found himself at the construction site after he left the company at noon. Even though she did not allow him to get close to her, he still looked forward to seeing her. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a familiar figure standing by the side of the road. Juju was dressed adorably, catching the attention of the people around. She looked exactly how Eudora would dress a child up. The next second, he saw Juju taking a step forward, and a huge car was speeding towards her. Amos felt a chill down his spine. Almost in an instant, he threw himself over and held Juju in his arms. Then, he heard a cracking sound. It was the sound of his arm hitting on the pavement. Amos frowned but he ignored his arm. Instead, he was more concerned about Juju who was in his arms. He asked in a deep voice, "Are you alright?" Juju blinked her eyes and smiled. "Uncle,
Wendy realized that Amos had injured his arm when she went to his house in the morning. She hurried forward anxiously, asking, "Amos, what happened?" Amos shook his head lightly, "It's nothing." That made Wendy frown. "Then let me change the bandage for you!" "Miss Liam, it's alright, I can do it!" Suddenly, Auntie Valerie butted in, pushing Wendy aside. With her around, she would never allow Wendy to have any alone time with Amos. Wendy gritted her teeth in annoyance, but there was nothing she could do. Since Auntie Valerie had taken care of Eudora before, she was Amos' most trusted person. Hence, she was not polite to anyone else. It didn't matter if Wendy had attempted to get in her good books or thrown threats at her, it had no effect on Auntie Valerie at all. Wendy bit her lip and offered herself once more. "Shall I prepare breakfast for Amos then?" Before she could finish her words, their pet dog, Cola came out of nowhere and
Eudora frowned. It turned out that they were not married yet. But on second thought, even if they didn't get married, it had nothing to do with her. After gaining her freedom, she didn't want to go back anymore. Shaking her head, she smiled and said, "Auntie Valerie, let's not talk about this. Let's free up some time and I'll treat you to dinner! Oh, and you'll have to bring Cola." Auntie Valerie nodded happily. "Okay, I'll look forward to it then!" The two of them chatted for a while. After that, Eudora had to go to work, so she excused herself and left. Auntie Valerie was a little excited. After shopping for groceries, she went home and wanted to tell Cola the good news. However, she couldn't find it anywhere after looking around. Auntie Valerie thought that Cola might be hiding in the garden again, so she decided to prepare the dishes first. ...... Cola was indeed lying under the bushes in the garden. Out of nowhere, a black shadow fla
After Eudora hung up the phone, she turned around and saw Juju and Cola staring at each other. Since Eudora had to work, she was afraid that it would be dangerous for Juju to be home alone, so she had never bought her a pet. It was her first time seeing Juju this excited. Not only was she not afraid of Cola, it was also obvious that she liked the dog very much. Eudora lifted the corners of her mouth as she glanced at them. "Are you hungry? I can grill some steak for you." When she mentioned the word 'steak', not only did Juju's eyes lit up, but Cola's too. When Eudora took out the plates, both Juju and Cola were patiently waiting at the kitchen door. They watched as Eudora started cooking in the kitchen. The odd sight made Eudora stifle a laugh, and she said helplessly, "You two, go to the living room!" At this moment, the doorbell rang. Eudora thought it was Christopher, so she told Juju to get the door. After a while, Eudora didn't hear
After Amos left, Juju played with Cola for a while before she reluctantly went to bed. When Eudora came out from her shower, she watched Cola, who was sleeping on the cushion. After much contemplation, she decided that she had to send Cola back tomorrow. Early the next morning, after Eudora dropped Juju off at school, she went straight to Clearwater Bay with Cola in tow. It was already almost ten o'clock in the morning, so Amos was probably not at home. She would just have to hand Cola over to Auntie Valerie. Needless to say, Auntie Valerie was elated to see Eudora. After taking Cola, she insisted that Eudora should come inside and visit. "I'm not busy at the moment. Shall we have a chat?" It was hard to refuse her kindness, so Eudora had no choice but to nod and follow her in. The garden was still the same as it was, even the flowers were the same as before. It had not changed in so many years. Eudora walked in and followed Auntie
Wendy was so taken aback that she screeched in horror. Cola had always been unfriendly towards Wendy, but it had never been as fierce as this. It was as if she was Cola's enemy. Wendy hurriedly locked herself in a room, but Cola still scratched frantically at the door. Cola still did not stop even though the bandage on its paws had came loose and the blood had flowed out. Seeing Cola acting so abnormally, Auntie Valerie was also frightened. She quickly ran over and held Cola. "What's wrong?" Cola continued to bark and growl at the door. Auntie Valerie had no choice but to drag him out. Wendy only dared to come out after Cola was gone. Her face was pale. When she saw the bloodstains on the ground, her face looked even worse. As soon as she turned her head, she saw Amos looking at her, so she hurriedly explained herself. "What's wrong with Cola? Why is he so fierce all of a sudden? Did it lose its mind?" Amos frowned and said blandly
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
