...... Kesha nodded her head vigorously. She thanked the heavens that she could finally breathe again. She didn't dare to get close to Steven anymore. He was not in the mood to play around with her. Kesha left soon after. Steven went straight back to the old mansion. At this moment, Bethany was planting flowers at home. Ever since Amos left the company, Bethany had returned to her previous calm and casual self. She would do some gardening and take care of the children every day. She didn't look anxious at all. When she saw Steven, she smiled and instructed the new housekeeper, who was standing behind her. "I have prepared some soup earlier this morning. Get a bowl for Steven. It's nourishing." Steven shook his head subconsciously and refused, "I'll pass!" Bethany looked at him suspiciously. He explained hurriedly, "I... ate with Kesha outside just now, and I'm still feeling a little full." Knowing that his parents might have been po
Amos fed Eudora dutifully for the next two days in the hospital. Finally, when she woke up on the third morning, she realized that she could see the lights vaguely. She was overjoyed. She grabbed Amos' hand accurately when he was feeding her. Amos was excited, "Can you see?" "I could see the faint light!" Eudora exclaimed, "Ah, I thought that I couldn't see anything again for the rest of my life. It's not too bad if I really did become blind." Amos smiled helplessly, "What's so good about that?" "President Granger would have to take care of me for the rest of my life!" "Even if your vision is perfectly fine, I would still take care of you for the rest of my life." "Really?" Eudora raised her eyebrows. "Of course!" The two of them bickered for a while until she finished her breakfast. Eudora took a nap after breakfast. It was raining last night, thus she didn't sleep well. Amos tucked the blanket in for her and to
Felix smirked abruptly when he noticed the shock on her face. "Do you really think that the few years of imprisonment has made me stupid? Not only do I hate Eudora, but I also hate everyone in the George family. You are not a good person as well! If you dare to shout for help now, I will make sure that your reputation would be ruined!" After that, he started to thrust himself into Kesha. Kesha bit her lip tightly and let her tears fall. Felix finally let go of her after he was done, "Ha... it seems that you have had a lot of fun over these years. Unfortunately, you've become a loose woman. It's boring." Kesha buttoned up her shirt silently, her eyes filled with hatred for Felix. However, she still said flirtatiously, "Felix, I know that I could never compare with Eudora. When you were with her, you did not even touch her. So Amos takes advantage of that. He's the only one who has been with her all these years..." Felix was enraged when he hear
While Amos was taking a bath in the bathroom, he felt a sting in his heart all of a sudden. Frowning, he picked up his clothes quickly, put them on, and went out. As soon as he opened the bathroom door, he saw that the bed where Eudora was lying on earlier was already empty. It was completely silent in the ward. He pulled open the door and stepped out into the corridor hurriedly, but there was not a single person there. Amos dialed Eudora's cell phone in a panic, only to discover that her cell phone was still in the room. He finally realized that something must have happened to her. Immense guilt crept into his heart. Why didn't he hold on to his desire just a little longer? He called Harley immediately, "Ask your colleagues to block all the roads near the hospital and get me the surveillance footage." Harley was arguing with Thea at the moment. After that incident in the hot spring the last time, he thought that he and Thea were already lovers
After browsing through the surveillance records of every road, Amos finally found that familiar car. The car drove to the slip road after leaving the hospital and went straight to the suburbs. Once they had located the car from the footage, Amos and Harley hurried to catch up and finally found the car at a crossroad in the suburbs. The car was parked there. They realized that it was a car that was about to be scrapped after closer inspection. All records of the car were erased, leaving nothing behind. It seemed that their efforts had been in vain. Harley was so pissed that he kicked the car door, "Sh*t!" Amos frowned and looked ahead. There was a fork in the road in front of them, and there was no trace in each one of them. He didn't know where that person had gone to. All of a sudden, his heart throbbed. An indescribable sense of worry and heartache surged from his heart. Amos frowned, "I can't wait any longer. The more we wait, the more
Eudora ran forward madly, not daring to stop for one moment. However, Felix still found her. He shouted from behind, "How dare you run away? I'll kill you if I catch you!" Eudora sped up. If she did not escape this time, she knew that she would be done for. This was how people would discover their potential in the face of survival instinct. This place was deserted. Eudora couldn't tell where she was going at all. Anyway, it must be right as long as she ran in the direction of the road. A car soon appeared in front of her. She waved to the car in a panic. However, Felix, who was chasing after her, stopped all of a sudden, as though he was not afraid that she would escape. Eudora's heart sank as she observed the car carefully. She could see at least seven to eight men in the car. Like what Felix had said, they all looked filthy! She knew that something was off. Eudora ran to the forest next to her in a panic. However, the men be
Amos and Eudora did not respond. Eudora had fainted, while Amos was unusually calm. It was as if the heartbroken cry that Harley had just heard did not come from him. Harley frowned, "Amos, are you alright?" Amos remained quiet, "Do you have a handkerchief?" Harley would usually not bring a handkerchief with him. However, ever since he met Thea, he had to be prepared for all kinds of disguise. One moment, he had to be a gentleman, and the next, he had to be lascivious. In short, he had been prepared all the time. At this moment, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket hurriedly and handed it to Amos. "Yes, here you go." "Thank you," Amos said. His politeness made Harley feel even more uneasy. "Amos, don't act this. Do we need to talk in such a manner?" Amos ignored him again. He took the handkerchief and wiped the blood off Eudora's head carefully. Then, he whispered, "Honey, let's go home!" Harley's heart skipped a beat a
When Doctor Leon was ready to leave the room, he spoke euphemistically. "Miss George's condition is a little tricky. You need to take better care of her. When necessary, a psychiatrist is also indispensable." Doctor Leon was a smart person. Of course, he knew that Amos loved Eudora so much that it was unlikely that he had treated her that way. Therefore, the wounds on her body were probably caused by someone else. That also explained why Amos was so frustrated. Doctor Leon paused for a moment before adding. "I'm not leaving soon. I'll be outside. Call me if you need me." After Doctor Leon went downstairs, Harley arrived with dinner. Of course, it was charred. Amos didn't eat. He just left it there. He sat there and looked at Eudora. All of a sudden, she started to pull things away desperately. It seemed that she had thought about those horrible things again. "Get out! Get away from me!" Eudora screamed. Amos ran over has
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
