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
"Oh, that's what you said!" the man laughed. "If you really feel sorry, it's still not too late, you can treat me to dinner." Eudora George said apologetically, "Sorry, I'm afraid I don't have time tonight." It was quite late, and Eudora had to go back to prepare dinner for Amos Granger. This was her job and duty as his lover. "It's okay!" the man replied nicely. "When you work at the company, we will have plenty of opportunities." "Thank you!" Eudora said sincerely. Just as he was about to leave, the man added, "My name is Christopher Gellert. Don't forget it." Eudora nodded vigorously. In the evening, Eudora prepared a candlelight dinner. When Amos came back, he saw the little woman sitting in the dim candlelight, her eyes shining. He walked over and kissed her on the top of her head. Only then did Amos ask, "Did something good happen?" "Yes!" Eudora nodded with a smile. "I've found a job." "Is it about Gellert family'
Eudora George settled into her new job. While Eudora had experience in sales from her time at Phantom Group, she actually majored in interior design. Back then, she had chosen said major because she liked it. It was her dream to turn a simple room into a home. Later, when she worked at Everpeace, she established a design department and made great progress there. However, it soon disbanded. In fact, Eudora was very grateful that she was able to work in the same sector. However, since she was a new employee, she had to familiarize herself with a lot of information and materials. Eudora's workload was growing by the second. When she got back in the evening, she quickly made dinner and went upstairs to read work cases. When Amos Granger got back, he could smell the aroma of food wafting from the living room, but the little woman was gone. He went upstairs and found her. "I'm really busy now. Sorry, I'm sorry, can you eat alone?" Eudora pleade
Hearing this, Christopher Gellert was taken aback, but he maintained the smile on his face. "Even so, President Granger, you are too sensitive! It's just a meal between friends..." Amos Granger sneered and ignored Christopher. "Eudora, I didn't know when you started making friends like Mr. Gellert. If you had looked for him at the beginning, you would not be in this situation now!" Amos said. Eudora frowned uncomfortably. But she continued to explain, "I accidentally bumped into Mr. Gellert last time, I agreed to treat him to a meal then." "A treat? Are you so free? Have you done all your duties?" Amos asked. The more he talked, the more unpleasant his words became. Eudora knew that he was implying that she had ignored him the past few days. She knew that she was just a lover and had tried her best to perform her duties. However, she did not expect that he would embarrass her in public. Suddenly, she felt sad and said, "Sorry, it's my fault. I
Neither of them spoke on the way home. After they got back, Amos Granger went straight upstairs. When Eudora George passed by his study, she heard Amos talking about Everpeace. She panicked and pushed the door open. "Mr. Granger, I won't resign," she cried. Amos was startled. He turned back to the phone and said, "Go and do it!" Then he hung up. Just as he was about to ask her why, she pounced on him without hesitation and hugged his waist from behind. "Mr. Granger, I was wrong. I know that I shouldn't be angry, and I have no right to ask for anything. However, this job is my only hope, and you can't let me leave Everpeace." Amos frowned. "Do you really want to stay in Everpeace?" "Yes!" Eudora nodded. "I will be separated from you one day. I can't put myself in another precarious situation like when I was with the Meyer family. Because when you leave, I will have nothing left." Amos was silent. He didn't realise that Eudora would
As soon as Eudora George and Amos Granger entered, they saw a big red car parked in the middle of the car dealer shop. The car agent came up to him in a hurry and tried his best to serve them. "Mr. Granger, take a look at this car," the man said. Amos Granger remained silent and turned to look at Eudora. "Do you like it? You were wearing a red dress the first time I saw you. You were very beautiful." Eudora recalled that absurd night. "Red dress?" Seeing her confused face, Amos suddenly lowered his voice and whispered in her ear. "I'm wrong. I meant the first time I saw you wearing clothes..." Amos said. Eudora's ears turned red. "You rascal!" she whispered softly. Watching her cheeks turn red, Amos' throat tightened. However, they were in public, so he continued to ask, "You haven't said if you like the car or not!" "I don't like it! It's too conspicuous," Eudora said. In the past, Felix Meyer always hoped she would be
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
