When they left the shop, they happened to see the door of the shop next door. Several people were gathered there, talking. "Valiant East? It will become Hamilton's Group sooner or later. What do you think?" Both of them stopped and looked at the speaker. That person looked a bit like Bethany, and a few clients were sitting beside him. "Are you saying that the Hamilton family has a say in Valiant East now?" "Of course!" That person replied. "You're bragging, aren't you? Although Valiant East claims that Steven is in charge of it now, Amos is still not easy to deal with. When he comes back from his vacation, he will certainly take charge of it again!" That person sneered and said, "Amos? He is nothing! He is like a homeless dog now! Do you think that he still has a chance to go back to Valiant East? You are too naive! Valiant East does not need him anymore! You should just give up on that thought!" Everyone looked at each other as though th
At Valiant East. Steven's assistant sent the video to his mobile phone as soon as he entered the company the next day. After watching it, Steven was so angry that he dropped his phone. "D*mn old woman, she was pretending in front of me. I knew that she was up to no good." The assistant pursed her lips, "President Granger, what should we do now? A few people from the Hamilton family have already occupied several important positions in the company. Finance, project, and development..." Steven became even angrier when he heard this, "So many? Didn't they just come here to do some simple jobs?" The assistant frowned, "You were the one who signed the contracts of promotion! Don't you remember?" It was only then that Steven thought of the conversations he had with Bethany in the past. Bethany had always mentioned casually that she wanted to find someone to share their burden in the company. Back then, he was still secretly competing with Amos, so he
"That's what I thought too! I think we should start sending out our resumes. Once the company closes down, we could leave immediately then." "You're right. I'll try that too." Eudora's face gradually turned gloomy. She thought that everyone here would be concerned about the company and Christopher. However, as soon as she got here, this was what she heard. She smacked the table and said coldly. "If you want to leave, you may leave now. You don't have to wait for the company to close down!" The women who were chatting in the lounge turned around in horror. They saw Eudora standing there, in a silver-gray business suit and a white shirt. She looked the same as before, but there was a trace of grimness around her. It was frightening! "Is there any problem?" Eudora said again, "Didn't you say that you wanted to leave just now? With all due respect, we do not wish to keep employees with such behavior anyway." She turned around and looke
Christopher was stunned, "Strange?" Eudora knocked him on his head, "Are you stupid?" Christopher was in a daze. "Why do you keep hitting me for no reason?" She really was different from her previous self. Eudora rolled her eyes at him, "Even Amos didn't mind my behavior, so never mind." Christopher did not know what to say. As she flaunted her affection for Amos, Christopher felt his elegance deteriorating. He was jealous. Since he didn't say anything, Eudora continued. "Think about it. Based on Tina's previous behaviors and her current ones, you should understand that she must have her own reasons for saying that! At moments like this, you should stand firmly by her side for her." The more Christopher listened, the more he felt what Eudora said might be true. At the same time, he hated himself. "You're right. I'm going to find her. I will find her right away..." Just as he was about to get up, he fell to the ground with a fl
It was unfathomable for the almighty Amos Granger to be concerned over such matters all of a sudden. Eudora thought that he was just joking, so she merely laughed it off. It turned out that Amos had stayed hidden in the study room all night long as though he was dealing with some mysterious national confidential. This was how the last night had transpired! When Amos came back, he racked his brains and thought about ways to take Eudora on a date. Unfortunately, he was truly bad at it. He thought about it for a long time but he failed to come up with any solution. In the end, he had no choice but to ask his friends for help. The first person he asked for help was Clint. Clint had been working for Amos for many years, and he had always given his best effort. However, as he had always gone all out as Amos' assistant, he did not even have time to date. In the end, after a few critical dispaly of affection from Amos, Clint finally took the firs
When they arrived, Eudora was dumbfounded. They were going to the cinema! Was this the so-called must-go place for dates? The corners of Eudora's mouth twitched, "Mr. Granger, were you talking about the cinema?" Amos nodded, "Let's go and get the tickets." Although Amos was really not a romantic, it was the first time for the two of them at the cinema together. Eudora was still looking forward to it! But... When they arrived at the ticket counter, Eudora looked at the group of energetic young people who were in the line, and then looked at the serious-looking Amos. This was quite... This seemed quite out of tune! Eudora said hurriedly, "Shall I buy the tickets?" Amos frowned,. "Why can't I buy the tickets?" Eudora did not think about it and she said very bluntly, "Nothing, I just think that it's a bit out of tune!" Amos looked at the line and immediately nodded, "You're right!" At least he was aware of the si
From time to time, the staff could hear Eudora's voice from the fitting room. "Take off your coat, now put this on, good boy..." The staff outside were all shocked. Sure enough, in this world, there would always be one person who could suppress even the mightiest man. Eudora stared at Amos in awe after he had changed into the fresh set of clothes. "You're so handsome!" She immediately took out her mobile phone and took selfies with him. "I want to post this on my social media, is that okay?" Amos nodded, "Sure!" How could he say no? She was willing to reveal his significance in her heart to her friends and family. He was elated. Hence, Amos took the initiative to try all the clothes that Eudora had brought to the fitting room. In the end, they bought all of it and headed home. On the way back, Eudora took out her mobile phone and saw Harley's comment. "Wow, wow, wow. You're so heartless. I'm going to block you."
Eudora became even more worried. Charlie had been working for Amos for many years. Eudora had heard from Auntie Valerie that he had no parents, and he had been with Amos ever since they started their journey in Country M. Who else in the world could make him so panic except for Amos? However, Eudora knew that he would not tell her anything even if she asked him. Therefore, she agreed. "I've already said before that I'll be fine with Juju alone. Please go ahead if you have urgent matters to attend to!" After that, Charlie went to pack up his stuff. Eudora immediately called the airport to check on his flight ticket. She realized that he had booked a ticket to Greene City. Not only Charlie, but also Clint tagged along. Eudora's heart sank as she realized that something must have happened to Amos. Instantly, her heart was in a mess. She forced herself to calm down. At times like this, no matter what, they had to solve Amos' problems fi
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
