"Eudora, don't be angry. The Old Master may be old but he is still very childish. In fact, he always said that he misses all of you!" Eudora didn't know what to say. Bethany stared at Old Master Granger as if she was staring at a child. Eudora felt that the Old Master whom Bethany was talking about was not the same person whom she knew -- the domineering and cold-blooded old man in front of her. Obviously, Amos did not believe it either. The atmosphere instantly became a little awkward. Old Master Granger coughed, "What nonsense are you talking about?" He then turned to call his assistant, "I've already said that I didn't want to come here, why must you force me then? What's the point of visiting this b*stard? Hurry up and push me back!" The assistant was speechless. Wasn't he the one who wanted to come and visit Amos? However, the assistant dared not reveal his true intentions. He immediately walked over to wheel the Old Master away. Af
Amos burst into laughter and said, "Then let me give you a piece too, my little princess." Juju took the piece of pancake with a smile and said, "Thank you, Daddy!" The three of them were eating happily when the Old Master came in, "You brat, are you challenging me now? Don't you care about the company's affairs anymore?" Amos swallowed the food in his mouth casually and said feebly, "I haven't recovered yet." "You...." The Old Master gritted his teeth, "I have asked Doctor Leon this morning and he said that your wound has healed and there is nothing serious. What do you want? Just tell me. Don't beat around the bush like that." Amos picked up his glass and took a sip of milk. "Let's go out and talk!" Hearing this, Eudora George glanced at him. Amos turned to flash a smile at her. "It's alright. Wait for me." ...... Amos and the Old Master were sitting across each other in the garden. There was still contempt in the old man's face
Both the father and son were very scheming. Therefore, Eudora could not help but wonder what Amos had promised his father when she saw that he was so relaxed. Amos shook his head, "It's okay. He has agreed to not make things difficult for you anymore. You and Juju will stay here in peace from now on." Eudora got even more worried, "What about you? What will you do?" "I..." Amos paused and continued, "We may have to sleep in separate rooms but don't worry, I will sneak over whenever you need me." Eudora was speechless. Why was this guy still joking at times like this? "Who needs that?" "I need it, okay?" Juju stared at Eudora before turning to Amos and asking in a sweet voice, "Mommy, Daddy, what do you need?" Eudora was shocked. She wanted nothing but to find a hole and bury herself inside. They were being a bad influence on their daughter. "Nothing!" Eudora explained hurriedly while Amos smiled and said, "We are discus
Kaylene's words seemed to have evoked Bethany's sadness. She paused, "Hank was indeed a good child. Whenever we celebrated his birthday, he would always give me the first piece of cake and he would say that the birthday of a child is a day of suffering for the mother. Back then, he had always said that he would make it up to me once he grows up but who knew that he..." Bethany was visibly saddened when she spoke of this. Her fingers paused and she wiped the corner of her eyes. "Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore." Kaylene dared not say anything else when she realized that Bethany was upset. She said hurriedly, "Shall I take you back for a rest?" "No, you should head back first. I'll stay here for a little while more!" Kaylene turned around and left. She immediately frowned after closing the door behind her. She glanced in the direction where Eudora was staying at and then walked back to her own room. There were several small buildings in the
The man's familiar scent surrounded her and he said, "You really moved out!" Eudora was taken aback. At that moment, she just realized that she was not in Amos' room. "Why are you still here then? Get out of here, else they will think that I've seduced you!" There was a hidden smile in Amos' eyes, "You have always seduced me." "Nonsense!" Eudora pursed her lips, "You came in here yourself. When did I ever seduce you? I haven't seen you for the whole evening by the way!" "You have not seen me for the whole evening because you had been seducing me the whole time in my mind!" Eudora was speechless. He was being unreasonable. He then hugged her again and said, "Did anyone make things difficult for you?" "No!" Eudora shook her head. "That's good!" His eyes then fell on the resume that she had submitted online, "Are you looking for work?" "I'm looking for a job that allows me to work from home so that I could take care of Juju. How
Amos knocked on the door and Eudora's voice came from the room. "This is our room. Go back to your room!" Amos burst into laughter. The little fox was really angry. At this moment, Juju was playing with her toys in the room and she did not notice anything. She did not even realize that Eudora's cheeks had gotten even redder after returning to the room. Why did that jerk suddenly mention their past? Amos' voice came from outside the door again. Unlike just now, his voice was now a little sad and bitter. "The key to my room is in the wallet that I had given to you this afternoon. You won't let me stay outside for the night, would you?" Eudora then came back to her senses. She hurried to look for the key in his wallet. Yet, she could not find it and she said, "Your key is not in the wallet!" "It must be in your room then!" Eudora searched everywhere in the room but she still could not find it. She forgot about the embarrassing situatio
The child whom the woman had brought back was an eight-year-old boy. Just like that, they began to live in the Granger family. The next morning, Eudora was awakened by a warm kiss. She saw Amos' handsome face as soon as she opened her eyes. She took a deep breath, still groggy. Amos let go of her and caressed her head. "I'm heading to work. You should sleep for a while longer. You'd better not interact with that mother and son downstairs for the time being. It won't be good if something happens." Eudora nodded in confusion and returned to sleep with Juju in her arms. She slept for a while and it was almost 9 a.m. when she got up to get ready. She had just freshened herself up when she heard someone knocking on her door. Eudora quickly went to open it. It was the woman from the day before, and she had a smile plastered across her face, "Hello, I went to the kitchen to make some of my child's favorite breakfast. I've made a few extras and I remembered
Everyone was quiet after hearing what Tiffany had said, so she asked again, "Who was poisoned?" "A servant at home!" the butler replied. "A servant? How could it be possible? I only gave my cake to Miss George. How could a servant be poisoned if I had never given it to anyone else?" As she said this, she turned to look at Eudora, "Miss George, could you please tell me what's going on now? How could you do this to my good intentions?" Eudora remained silent. She studied Tiffany carefully and wondered what had gone wrong. She had never left her room ever since Tiffany gave her the cake until it was being thrown away. However, if Tiffany was not the one who had poisoned the cake, then who could it be? Harry, who was standing next to her, said, "Miss Leon, don't be anxious. Let's have a face-to-face discussion since you're already here. Eudora said that you were the one who had given her the cake, so we called you over. Tell me, have you seen anyone befo
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
