Woosh!

Eudora George opened her eyes when a bucket of cold water was splashed on her face.

'Is she dead? Is she in heaven? If there was a next life, she wants to be a person who can decide her own fate.' she thought.

"Oh, First Miss, are you awake?"

"You were caught red-handed by the Meyer family for having an affair!" Eudora's stepsister Kesha George uttered in disdain. "They sent you back, do you know that? The entire George family's reputation has been ruined by you!"

"Kesha, what are you talking about?" It was her manipulative stepmother, Felicia Maurice.

Eudora looked at the gloating faces of Felicia and Kesha in front of her, and she smiled bitterly in her heart. It turned out that it was not heaven. It was back to hell.

She struggled and winced at her aching body as she sat up. She smirked.

"Well, I was just following the footsteps of this family anyway. The mistress now becomes the wife."

"You..." Kesha glared at her angrily. "Dad, did you hear what Eudora just said?"

Gordon George stood next to Kesha. Eudora finally noticed that her father was there as well. She puckered her lips, keeping quiet out of respect for her father.

"Dad, I want a divorce!" Eudora said firmly.

"I do not agree!" Gordon spoke loudly.

She felt a pang of disappointment. She thought that even though her other family members had always mistreated her, her father would still stand by her side.

Eudora sneered and tried to leave the room. "I do not care if you agree or not. I'm already an adult."

"How dare you!" Gordon was so angry that he started coughing violently. The cough was so bad that he struggled to catch his breath. Eudora stopped walking, but she didn't turn around.

Felicia and Kesha quickly went over to help Gordon to calm down. "Gordon, aren't you planning to tell Eudora about our family's situation? There's a problem with our project and we've lost 50 million dollars. The George Family's foundation would collapse without Felix's support!"

Eudora was shocked. She remembered what Laura said when she was hitting her. Was that what she said, true?

"What the hell is going on?"

"Eudora!" Gordon burst into tears. "I hope you don't blame me. I was not able to do anything. Your late mother and I built our wealth and influence together from scratch. But I have failed her. I am going to be the one who is going to single-handedly destroy it!"

Mother!

Eudora remembered that when her mother died, she made her promise to do everything possible to protect the George family. If only her mother were still alive...

"This is the last time, I promise! Eudora, please apologize to Felix again. As long as the George family is able to survive this crisis, I will definitely take you back!"

Eudora turned around and looked at Gordon pitifully. She no longer believed in her father, but for the sake of the promise she made to her late mother, she was willing to try one final time.

......

In the hospital.

After clearing all the required tests in the hospital, Harley Louis returned to the ward only to see the patient had already worn his clothes. After tidying himself up, Amos Granger looked nothing like a beggar. His exotic handsome features exude a mysterious charm and he looked like a person drawn out of a painting. His eyes gave him the aura of a royalty.

He leaned lazily on the sofa and started smoking.

"What are you doing? Do you really think that you are made of iron? The doctor said that you need to rest for at least half a month!"

The smoke enveloped Amos' face, blurring his expression. The only thing visible was his cold piercing eyes.

"Do you think those people in the Granger family will let me rest for half a month?"

Harley recalled how surprised the physician was when he saw the wounds on Amos' body. The crazy people in the Granger family would not be so kind to let him off so easily.

"Okay, since the hospital is discharging you, you should go home and rest up. I'll send over a few men to guard your place for the time being."

"Okay!" Amos said faintly, "Before we leave, could you please help me retrieve the recordings from the surveillance cameras around the area you found me at?"

Harley was stunned. "What are you going to do? Are you trying to relive your exciting moment heh?"

Amos glanced at him, "I'm looking for someone."

"Who are you looking for?" After saying that, Harley clasped his mouth with his hands in realization. "Shit! Don't... Don't tell you're going to look for the woman they sent? You... you're not into SM, are you?"

"Shut up!" Amos said coldly.

"Oh!" Harley suddenly became silent. "I'll try my best!"

    The Meyer Residence. When Eudora George returned to her marital residence, it was already late at night. When she walked past the living room, she noticed that her husband and her mother-in-law were eating dinner together. Laura Westin immediately threw her spoon onto the table at the sight of her. "I don't want to eat anymore! My appetite is ruined!" Eudora ignored her and walked straight ahead. "Stop!" Felix Meyer suddenly opened his mouth. When Eudora turned back to look at him, Felix sneered and pointed at the ground. "Kneel down and crawl to me." He shouted at her like she was a dog. Eudora pursed her lips and lowered her head, masking her expression.  "What? You don't want to?" Eudora still didn't move, refusing to entertain Felix. Her indifference made Felix angry. He stood up from the table and stomped over to Eudora. He grabbed her chin roughly, lifted her face and glared at her. "Eudora George, are you pretending to

    Three days later, in the Granger family's mansion. On the second floor of the mansion was a study room. It was decorated in a subtle but luxurious European style. The room had a black theme, symbolising calmness and quietness. Harley Louis leaned against the window and chattered incessantly. "The old guys in the Granger family are really one of a kind. When they saw you come back, I swear they were cursing you under their breaths. But they still had to pretend to welcome you home. They really should get Oscars for their acting." Amos Granger paid no heed to Harley's chatter. His slender fingers were holding a cigarette which had stopped burning since a while ago. When Harley finally stopped talking, Amos asked, "Where's the person I asked you to look for?" Harley gulped. "It's really not my fault. That part of town is really messy and underdeveloped so there weren't any survelliance cameras there for the longest time." Their conversation was in

    The man was emitting a dangerous aura, sending shivers to Eudora George's body. Especially where there wasn't anyone else in the corridor, she began to feel a little nervous. "Let go of me!" "You're asking me to let go of you? Weren't you the one who took the initiative that night?" Amos Granger's words struck her like a bolt of lightning. That night? She took another good look. The man standing in front of her looked like a model - stunningly handsome features with a strong. muscular build and an innate noble temperament. He looked completely different from the man who was covered in blood that night. "What are you talking about? I don't know what you're talking about." "Woman..." Amos gently pinched Eudora's chin. "There isn't a woman in this world who dares to defy me." As soon as he finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed the woman's lips. Just like that night, he was in control and his kiss carried a certain tinge of

    Eudora George shifted uncomfortably. She really didn't want to stay even a minute longer. She muttered under her breath. "It doesn't really matter whether I'm here or not when it comes to your business matters, am I right?" "I told you to stay, so stop saying all this nonsense." Felix Meyer was angry. He raised his hand and waved it towards Eudora's face. The next second, a big hand grabbed him. Felix was so angry that he cursed, "Who the f*ck dares to stop me?" "How dare you! Do you think this is a place where you can do whatever you like?" Clint Zuckerberg, Amos Granger's assistant, said sternly. It was only then that Felix noticed that the person who grabbed him was Amos Granger, an influential businessman in Rosaville City. He immediately changed his expression and replied politely. "Mr Granger. My apologies for not recognizing you earlier.." Amos glanced faintly at the woman standing next to Felix and said coldly, "Don't you know it

    Eudora George pursed her lips and didn't say anything. She was still thinking about the way Amos Granger looked her just now. His gaze was so piercing that it sent shivers down her whole body. What does he want? Why did he ask her to go his office? She couldn't figure out what he was thinking.  "I'm asking you a question, did you hear me?" Felix Meyer grabbed Eudora's collar. When he saw the hickeys on Eudora's neck, he could feel his blood boil. "Well well, Eudora George, it seems that I had underestimated you. Why did you take so long at the bathroom earlier? You're still my woman, and yet you still dare to cheat in front of me? I ought to teach you a lesson today!" Eudora sneered, "Your woman? Aren't the women of the Meyer family just objects to be exchanged for favors? Or are they solely used to attract people's attention?" "You..." Felix clenched his teeth. "You're really asking for it..." He raised his hand high and in a quick motion it a

    The document was an agreement on the Phantom Group's legal acquisition of the George family's Everpeace Group. Just two days ago, the Phantom Group acquired Everpeace Group. Eudora George saw the name 'Gordon George' on the contract and remembered what her father said to her before she returned to the Meyer residence that day. "Eudora, this is the last time I assure you! As long as the George family is able to survive this crisis, I will definitely bring you back!" "Heh! What a liar!"  When she flipped open the rest of the pages of document, Everpeace Group was indeed already acquired by the Phantom Group. "You still don't know, do you? The government is planning to develop Rosaville City and they were looking at building a waste-processing factory in the city. It took me some time to consider the most suitable location to build the factory, but now that I think about it, the land where the Everpeace group is built on seems to be the perfect spot..." Felix

    Eudora George took a deep breath and turned the door handle. As she stepped inside, she noticed a large extravagant desk in the center of the room. The man was leaning with his back against the desk. "Mr. Granger!" Eudora spoke. "Ah! You're here." Amos Granger's voice was very calm and indifferent. On the other hand, the indifference in Amos' voice made Eudora even more nervous. "Don't be nervous. Take a seat." Amos said as he turned around to face Eudora. He was just as stunning as she had seen him yesterday. And his eyes especially. If you stare at them long enough, his watchful gaze seemed to be able to pierce through your soul. "That's alright!" Eudora placed the file on the table. "This is the Phantom Group's proposal. Please take a look." "There's no need to rush!" Amos didn't even glance at the document on the table. He walked around the table and towards Eudora. His tall stature was very intimidating as he approached her. Wi

Eudora George threw the stack of documents into his hands. "Felix, I can't do it. Go and find someone else!" Felix's face darkened. "Eudora, are you f*cking joking with me? You were up there for so long and now you're telling me that you can't do it? Didn't you already memorise what to discuss about? Can't you do one simple thing right?" "Oh... Did you think it's as simple as just negotiating for a contract? Then why don't you go to do it yourself?" Eudora retorted. Felix glared at Eudora. "So what? It's not the first time you slept with someone anyway. Are you tossing my interests aside after you had your own fun?" "Felix!" Eudora shouted harshly. "What nonsense are you talking about?" "Nonsense? How dare you! Let's see how long you're able to continue pretending to be noble when in actual fact yo

    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

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.
