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
The little woman and the little girl's bright smiles immediately crossed Amos' mind. He shook his head, "No, let them play. Let them know that I need to go on a business trip for the next two days. I'll come back the day after tomorrow." "Okay!" the butler replied and hung up the phone. After the call ended, the Old Master next to him asked, "What did Amos say?" "The Second Young Master said that he needs to go on a business trip for the next two days and so he asked me to inform Miss George about it." Old Master Granger did not look away. Instead, he stared at the butler expectantly. The butler was taken aback, "Yes?" The Old Master's face suddenly sank, "Didn't he tell you to let me know about this as well?" "No," the butler replied. "That b*stard!" The old man gritted his teeth, "Alright, you may leave now!" The butler nodded but he could not help but ask, "What about Miss George..." "Mind your own business and don't ask the thin
Juju's childlike voice was very heart-wrenching, especially when it was already so dark at night. Eudora hugged her hurriedly, "Juju, don't do this..." Juju shouted for a long time but no one responded. After that, she threw herself into Eudora's arms. Eudora thought Juju would cry like she did before, but to her surprise, Juju remained perfectly calm. She just rubbed herself against Eudora. "Mommy, I will protect you in the future!" "Juju..." ...... It was late at night. The sound of howling rain could be heard and a gust of wind blew in through the cracks of the door. Eudora could not help but shrink her body as she held onto Juju tightly. Juju was already tired from shouting and she had since fallen asleep. However, Eudora could not sleep. The floor was too cold because it was paved with marble tiles, and even the walls were made of marble. It was cold everywhere and it seemed like they were in an ice cellar. It was difficult for
Eudora George was still lying on the bed and she had yet to wake up. However, the warmth was beginning to return to her body. Amos Granger reached out to help her up. He whispered to her, "Eudora, get up and eat something." Eudora was still in a trance and she seemed to be mumbling something under her breath. Amos leaned over hurriedly to listen to what she was saying. He then realized that she was calling his name over and over again. "Amos, I'm sorry..." Amos' heart tightened. She had already fallen sick and yet she was still apologizing to him. It was obvious that he was the one who should be sorry! He held her hurriedly in his arms, "Eudora, don't say that. It's my fault. When I called home yesterday, I should have known that something was off when I didn't get to hear your voice. I trusted others too much. I did not expect this to happen. It's all my fault." Eudora was still in a daze and Amos was getting a little anxious. When he turned to see that J
Juju's mood finally eased a little because of Eudora. However, she still did not take the initiative to talk to Amos. After Eudora woke up, she recalled that she was supposed to sign a contract with her new company the day before. She had broken her promise and she phoned them hurriedly to apologize. Fortunately, the company was quite understanding. When she told them that she was sick, they asked her to take care of herself before reporting to work. Only then did Eudora feel at ease and continue to lay on the bed with Juju for a while. At this moment, there was a noise outside and Tiffany's voice rang through the door. "Eudora, I didn't do it. Why won't you believe me? I've only been to the Granger family for only two days and I really don't want to be your enemy. I am willing to apologize if I have done anything to hurt you. Please tell the Old Master not to move us to another place." Eudora frowned. Was the Old Master going to move Tiffany Leon el
Both of them were taken aback and Christopher Gellert was the first to speak. "How's your going recently?" After a pause, Eudora George replied, "Great, what about you?" Christopher seemed to have thought of something and he gave a wry smile, "I'm good too!" He continued, "I had just started this company recently and its main focus is on design. It's almost the same as the studio we had in Italy. So, I am more than willing to welcome you..." At first, Eudora was ecstatic to join the company, but now, she suddenly hesitated. Christopher was a very nice guy. She clearly knew that he had a crush on her when he accompanied her abroad for so many years. However, even after so many years, she still could not accept him from the bottom of her heart. In the end, a lot of things happened. She knew that she owed him a lot. Seeing that she was quiet, Christopher suddenly smiled, "What's wrong? Are you afraid of meeting me?" "No!" Eudora
"Yes! He got married recently, remember?" Eudora George said with a smile. Amos's face darkened. "Oh!" Eudora was taken aback and she turned to stare at the man who was seemingly upset. "What? Are you jealous?" This was the first time she had seen Amos being so jealous and she was so close to bursting into laughter. What should she do? Amos Granger spotted the woman who was laughing at him heartlessly and could not help but pinch her cheeks. "Still laughing?" "You are just too cute!" Eudora smiled and asked Juju, "Don't you think Daddy is cute?" "Eudora!" Amos's face was getting grumpier, "You're getting bolder!" Only then did Eudora shrivel her neck, "You decide on the gift then, okay?" Amos's expression softened a little, "Since you like this, then this should be good enough." Eudora was happy and she pecked him on the cheek. "Thank you!" Amos reached out and rubbed his cheeks. This little woman, why was she getting so happy
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
