"No, she didn't!" Amos replied. Wendy Liam had no chance to touch him at all over the past few years. How could she cure him? Every time he fell ill, he would take medicine and think of Eudora as he endured everything. "What's going on then?" Eudora George was surprised. Amos smiled. "That's probably because she's your daughter!" Eudora was speechless. Juju suddenly said, "Uncle, why are you holding my Mommy's hand? Could you also hold my hand?" Eudora was shocked to find that her hand was still linked with Amos'. She hurriedly pulled it out and said, "Uncle is feeling a little unwell, so Mommy was about to take care of him." Juju nodded, not fully understanding, and reached out to pat Amos' back. "Uncle, do you feel much better now?" Amos felt a sudden surge of warmth in his heart. He looked at Juju in a daze and said, "Yes, I feel much better now." At this time, Auntie Valerie took out all the toys she had prepared for Juju
Amos calmly went over to his seat, so Eudora had no choice but to sit down as well. They were the guests visiting someone else's home, so it would be rude of her if she was picky. There were only three of them, but they prepared eight dishes. The food was obviously a little too much. Eudora ate silently. Suddenly, Juju asked, "Uncle, why are you only eating that?" Eudora looked up and saw that the plate of brussels sprouts in front of Amos. Half of the plate was gone because Amos kept eating that dish. While thinking about it, Juju said again, "Uncle, since you like it so much, it must be very delicious." After that, she picked up one piece and put it in her mouth. The next second, the little girl scrunched up her face. "It's so bitter!" Eudora hurriedly handed her a glass of juice, "Here, drink this." After taking a few sips, Juju finally swallowed the piece of brussels sprouts and looked at Amos with some confusion. "Uncle,
After Wendy left Clearwater Bay, she made a phone call to Caleb. Sure enough, Caleb stayed true to his words and injured Cola. Wendy was fuming mad, "It's just a dog. Why did you hurt it? The d*mn dog now barks crazily at me whenever it sees me." However, Caleb responded with a laugh. Wendy frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at?" "What do you think I am laughing at?" Caleb cackled even more hysterically. "I was the one who injured the dog yet it keeps barking at you. Don't you realize that it could smell my scent on you?" Wendy's heart skipped a beat. She sniffed her body subconsciously and could really smell Caleb's scent on her. That night, she didn't sleep a single wink. When she woke up in the morning, she went straight for an aromatherapy massage. After she was done, she came out of the massage parlor and was in a better mood. However, as soon as she came out, she saw a familiar figure standing by the side of the road
Due to psychological anxiety, Wendy couldn't sleep at all and eventually passed out because of stress. She went to the hospital for a check-up. When she came out of her ward, she saw Old Master Granger sitting alone in the corridor. She hurried to catch up and heard the Old Master's caretaker talking to the doctor. "The Old Master's body is deteriorating. At this stage, he's basically relying on medicine to maintain his health. I suggest that we continue using conservative treatment on him, so that he could enjoy the remaining years of his life. If there are children at home, try to have them accompany him as much as possible." The caretaker nodded. "How much longer does he still have left? His biggest wish is to see our young master get married." The doctor frowned. "About 6 months!" Wendy was shocked out of her wits. The doctor said that the Old Master only had 6 months left to live! Everything was so sudden, but for her, it was a good opport
As soon as he heard the word "granddaughter", Old Master Granger shot up from his wheelchair with a loud thud. He looked at Amos with a fresh, excited look in his eyes as if he had suddenly regained all his spirit. "Are you planning to get married?" Of course, Amos was planning to get married. The moment he laid his eyes on Eudora, he wanted to marry her there and then. However, that woman was still very cautious around him and it would be unwise of him if he acted too aggressively. "I am planning to!" Amos said. "To Wendy?" the Old Master asked. Amos looked at the Old Master suspiciously. "Didn't you use to hate her before? What made you change your mind so drastically?" The Old Master choked and said exasperatedly, "Are you the only one who would change over the years? Wendy has been visiting me quite often recently, and I realized that I may have been wrong about her before. Is this reason good enough for you?" Amos snorted, "I'm afrai
Hearing Juju's words, both Eudora and Amos were stunned. The woman wanted to say something, but the crowd were already beginning to point and gossip. "What's wrong with the society these days? The poor family can't even be left alone to spend time and shop together in peace." "That's right. Do you think that you can barge in and destroy other people's families just because you are somewhat pretty? You really ought to be ashamed of yourself." After being verbally attacked by the crowd, the woman finally couldn't help but grit her teeth and run away sheepishly. Only then did Eudora sigh in relief and turn to look at Amos, "Are you alright?" Amos didn't say anything. He lowered his head and glanced at his wheelchair. Following his gaze, only then did Eudora realize that his wheelchair was stuck in between the drain gaps, and his ankle was injured because of it. Hence, he was unable to get out. He couldn't bear to have his subordinates se
At this very critical moment, Amos suddenly pulled her up and turned around with a swift motion. He fell on the couch, while Eudora fell on top of him. Their awkward position made Eudora's heart skipped a beat. Embarrassed, she scrambled to stand up again. But the next second, her legs gave way and she slipped again. This time, her lips brushed onto Amos' cheek, flaring up the situation even more. "I'm... I'm sorry." Eudora hurriedly got up and was baffled at the series of events that just happened. Just minutes ago, she had said in a righteous tone that she didn't want to have anything to do with him, but the next second, this happened. Amos felt his heart become hollow once again the moment she got up from him. Thus, when Eudora apologized to him, he suddenly replied, "You've harassed me, and now you have to take responsibility for your actions." Eudora was speechless. Seeing that she didn't speak, Amos said again, "I am serious! I don
Strictly speaking, Christopher was the most important and rightful person in the family. His mother was Old Master Gellert's first wife. When Master Gellert was in his worst shape, she followed him and stayed by his side without hesitation. She was the one who built up the foundation bricks of their family business with Master Gellert. To help his father, his mother was willing to give up on her pregnancy and sacrifice her baby for the business. Later on, when everything finally got steadier after years and years of hard work, she found that she was pregnant again. The blessing of another child made her jump with joy. Alas, when she wanted to tell Master Gellert the good news, he showed up in front of her with another woman and a child. The child was Christopher's oldest brother, an illegitimate child who was older than him. Due to the immense sadness, his mother could not bear the heavy blow and slipped into depression during her pregnancy. As soon gave b
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
