In the President's office in Valiant East Group. When Gordon George entered the room, he saw Amos Granger leaning lazily on the executive chair. A coffee-coloured poodle was resting on his lap. The man gently stroked the puppy's fur. A man was seen kneeling down pathetically in front of Amos and he suddenly slapped himself hard. Gordon recognized the man. His name is Clement Zayn and he was the director of a company owned by one of the most influential families in Rosaville City. The last time Gordon saw Clement was when he went over his company to ask for his help to support the George family. But at that time, Clement had refused to meet him and rejected his beg for help. Never in Gordon's mind did he expect that even the arrogant Clement Zayn had to face the wrath of Amos Granger. "Mr. Granger, I admit that it is my fault for being so ignorant. I didn't know that it was your puppy. Please forgive me!" Amos ignored his pleas and continued pet
The sun was shining perfectly through the windows onto the two lovers, adding warmth to the already passionate moment. Perhaps it was the fact that the man had taken care of her through her weakest moments, Eudora George found herself feeling a little closer to Amos Granger. Her body relaxed under his touch, no longer stiff as before. Eudora unknowingly pulled Amos closer to her body. Her softness and sudden eagerness ignited Amos' inner desire. Amos reacted instinctively and gently pulled Eudora's head back, deepening the kiss. Cola tried wiggling out of Eudora's arms, and that sudden movement snapped her back to her senses. "Mr.... Mr. Granger." "Amos." he responded candidly. "A...mos..." "Off you go!" Amos put Cola down on the floor, which then ran cheerfully around the house with its new-found freedom. Amos turned around and held Eudora's hand and pulled her towards the sofa. His gaze were fixated on Eudora's petite body, his ey
When Eudora George woke up the next day, Amos Granger had left the house. After lying on the bed for a while, Eudora got up from bed and went out to buy groceries. As soon as she got outside, she saw Laura Westin standing by the door. Eudora was stunned for a moment and turned around to avoid her. Unexpectedly, Laura chased after her. "Eudora, I have something to tell you." Her mother-in-law had never spoken so politely to her before. Eudora raised her eyebrows. "I think the George family had already told you my decision. I don't have anything else to say to you!" Hearing this, Laura lowered her head. She was just a woman from the countryside. She thought that her son was very powerful, but she didn't expect that Amos was much more powerful than her son. When she thought of how her son had been tortured in prison, she didn't know what to do anymore. "I know. I'm not here to look for trouble. I'm here to tell you that we will grant y
Eudora George was startled. "Amos..." The name 'Amos' was very common, but it felt special when it came out of her mouth. "Yes, call me this name from now on," Amos Granger said. Amos' arms gradually tightened. Eudora panicked. She was worried that yesterday's incident would happen again, so she quickly broke free. "Cola is hungry..." Eudora said. This time, Amos did not stop her. He let her escape to the kitchen. However after they were done with their meal, Eudora was once again pinned down on the dining table by Amos as they did the deed. Later, Eudora was so tired that she didn't want to stand up. This man was the most powerful man in Rosaville City, wasn't he? Why did he look like he had been restrained for more than 20 years? Amos carried her upstairs and put her on the bed. Amos changed his clothes as he looked into the little woman's narrowed eyes. "Have a good rest. You don't need to clean up the house. A part-time maid wil
"Misunderstanding? If she still believed that, then she deserves to be unlucky." Eudora George thought. At this moment, Eudora was nestled in Amos Granger's arms, with only one thought in her mind. If Amos hadn't come when he did, would Laura Westin have come downstairs? Would she still say that it was all a misunderstanding? Laura would probably have looked at her with disdain and called her a whore. Eudora buried her face in Amos' arms. Felix's screams were horrible. Laura pleaded but to no avail, so she rushed to the men again. "Felix, my son." Laura cried. The mother and son shouted for a long time. The bodyguards finally stopped. Felix struggled to get up and stared at Eudora ferociously. Laura hurriedly took the prepared divorce agreement, ran to Felix, and said, "Son, don't argue with them anymore. Divorce her immediately!" Upon hearing this, Felix sneered. The blood stains on his face made him look even more terrifyin
Two days later. Eudora George was supposed to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to apply for the divorce certificate with Felix Meyer. When she got up this morning, Eudora made a point to dress herself well. Today was the first day of her new life after all. She ought to be in her best condition! While they were eating, Anya Astor came in. "President Granger has a meeting in the morning. I will be accompanying you to the Civil Affairs Bureau instead," Anya said. Eudora was a little embarrassed. "But, isn't this too much trouble?" "Of course not, your safety is my priority." Anya said. Eudora didn't argue any more and got up to leave with Anya. By the time they arrived at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Felix had already arrived. After two days of recovery, his injuries had healed a lot, but he was still full of rage. However, when he saw Anya, he fought to restrain himself. He might be like this for the rest of his life
Amos Granger was stunned. After a moment, he turned to look at the little woman with eager eyes. "I will support you. You don't need to work," Amos said. Eudora George knew that he would say that. Being a person he is, he wouldn't allow her to go out and work. However, Eudora knew this was something she had to do. Eudora softened her voice. "It's not the same! I've wasted three years in the Meyer family doing nothing! I am so detached from everything. I want to know more about the outside world, even if... it's for you." Amos narrowed his eyes. "For me?" "It's all for you. If I can go out to work, maybe we can have more to talk about. You can finally share your troubles with me," Eudora said. Amos' lips curled into an amused smile. "Little fox, when did you become such a sweet-talker?" Although he knew that it was just an excuse to go out, he was pleased. "I'm sincere!" Eudora insisted. Amos put out the cigarette in his hand and r
She didn't know what to do, but when she saw that Amos was about to scratch his rashes, she held his hands. "Don't, you will leave scars," Eudora said. She turned around and fetched a basin of warm water. She wrung the towel which she used to clean him up, only to find that his body was also full of rashes. The rashes was densely packed and very scary. Eudora frowned. "Were you stung by a bee?" Amos' eyes darkened. When he thought about how Samantha Cooper got the drop on him, he was furious. She was akin to a dangerous bee. "Don't be angry!" Eudora quickly soothed. "Don't be angry or impatient. Otherwise, your rashes will worsen," she warned. "It's so itchy!" Amos frowned. He always maintained a stoic demeanor, never showing any weakness. Suddenly he was acting like a cute child, which Eudora found funny. "Even so, you can't scratch them!" Eudora reprimanded. Putting down the towel, Eudora pointed to the place where he had j
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
