On the way to the airport. Steven looked at the time on his phone irritably. He ordered the driver repeatedly, "Hurry up!". The driver's expression darkened and he replied, "Sir, I'm already driving as fast as I can. I can't go any faster!" Steven glanced at his watch and lowered his head as he looked at his phone again. He had been looking for Kesha over the past few days after she disappeared, especially after the video leaked out on the Internet earlier that morning. Others may not know about it, but Steven knew clearly that it was Kesha who had leaked the video. The only ones who knew about this matter were but a few. Felix was no longer in Rosaville City. Therefore, apart from him, Kesha was the sole suspect. He traced the source of this video and went to investigate hurriedly. He eventually got a result that was far worse than what he had expected. All the information on the Internet showed that the video was posted by him. St
Steven's mind was buzzing and he was at a loss. Amos, on the other hand, looked as calm as ever, his thoughts crystal clear. He had initially thought that it was Steven who had posted that video on the internet. However, after having a serious conversation with him, he was certain that Steven wasn't the type of person who would make such a wise move. He glanced at his surroundings. "Are you still going to hide? I know who you are. You're the one behind all this." However, the enemy remained calm and there was not a single movement. Amos furrowed his eyebrows. At this moment, Steven, who was tied up beside him, suddenly broke free. Once he regained his freedom, he leaped to his feet and lunged towards Amos. Amos felt his heart skip a beat. He moved towards the side swiftly. Fortunately, he managed to dodge the blow. "Steven, have you lost your mind?" Steven gritted his teeth, "Don't you dare try to fool me! You and Bethany are up to
Eudora stared at Cindy suspiciously. However, Cindy used to be one of Amos' secret guards too, so she was capable of composing herself in such a stressful situation. Eudora observed her for some time. However, she did not blush or wince under her scrutiny! Eudora had no choice but to let it go, "Forget about it then!" As soon as she finished eating, Eudora came up with an excuse and went upstairs to read some books. She immediately went to look for her phone when she reached her room. However, it was nowhere to be found. She turned on the computer but there was no internet access. Eudora would be an id*ot if she still thought that nothing was going on. Something was definitely off! And it must be related to her! Eudora frowned. At this moment, she saw Harley's car heading towards Clearwater Bay. Why would Harley come over at this hour? After all, Harley had been spending most of his time with Thea after their marriage. He us
Meanwhile, on the peak of the mountain, Amos saw a flash of light approaching him. They were too close to each other. It was too late for him to avoid it! Kesha didn't flinch at all and she pierced the tip of the knife through his abdomen. "You'd never thought that you would die like this, did you, Amos?" Amos kicked Kesha away immediately, but his wound was already slowly bleeding out. He could not regain his strength for a while. The next second, Kesha pulled her knife up forcefully. Amos thought that she was going to give him another blow, but instead, Kesha had already thrown the knife in front of Steven. She laughed horrifically as she said, "Amos, I thought that you were smarter than this. Did you think that I would kill you?" Amos furrowed his eyebrows, and the next second Kesha had already turned to look at Steven. "Don't you want to avenge your parents? This is your best chance. Now that he's injured, he's certainly no match for you. As long
Harley knocked down the nearest man in front of him with just one sweep. The remaining men rushed over quickly and fought with him and Clint. Everything turned to chaos in a matter of seconds as the fight got more intense. Harley and Clint excelled at fighting, but they were still outnumbered. They were getting exhausted from fighting so many of them. Amos didn't have time to care about his bleeding wound. He joined in on the fight immediately. Due to the intense fighting, his stomach started bleeding even more. His blood started dripping all around the ground. At this moment, Steven seemed to have thought of something and stood up to pull Kesha to his side. "Let's leave quickly..." Kesha brushed off Steven's hand before he could even finish his sentence. "Don't touch me!" Steven was genuinely surprised and his fingers halted. "Kesha, stop it. It was my fault before. I promise you, I will treat you right in the future! Amos is dying
"What are you talking about?" Eudora said, "Even if the police come, they will definitely arrest you!" Kesha burst into a fit of laughter, "How is that possible? The police will only arrest those who had committed a crime. Amos has killed Steven. Obviously, the police will catch him!" Eudora frowned. She glanced around and found Steven lying on the ground. She wasn't sure if he was still alive. "You! You were the one who did this!" Eudora said. Kesha immediately started laughing, "Aren't you smart, big sister? But... it's too late now!" She then turned around and saw that the police were only several hundred meters away and heading up the mountain! Unexpectedly, Harley sneered. "Look closer!" Kesha was stunned. She looked at them carefully this time. There were two men whom she didn't recognize behind the group of policemen. "What's going on? That's..." Eudora recognized Charlie and Wesley behind the group of policemen, and sh
Amos remained silent. Kesha shot a cold glance at Steven. "What did you say? Don't think that I'll forgive you just because of what you said. It's too late, Steven! It's over!" Crimson blood flowed out from the corner of Steven's mouth as he smiled at Kesha. "I'm sorry, Kesha. I'm sorry that I was a coward. I didn't know that I hurt you. If I had known, I would not have been like that! I admit that I was just messing around with you when we first got together. But then, I really thought of marrying you... That's why I was so frustrated when I saw you smiling at other people..." Kesha glared at Steven fiercely. "I've told you many times, you're a fool! Did you really think that I would come crawling back to you, or even feel guilty about killing you? No, I'm telling you now that I will never!" Steven shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter anymore! Maybe my whole life is just a joke." Because he was brought up in the Granger family, outsider
Steven laid there, lifeless. He did not smile, nor did he respond to her words. After slapping him across the face, Kesha reached out to hold Steven and began to cry. "Didn't you say that you had other things in mind from the start? Why did you save me even after I tried to kill you? Are you stupid? You might as well be cruel to me like that day. That's how you should be." Kesha threw the card that she was holding onto to Steven's body. "I don't want your card! Do you think that you could make me feel guilty by giving me this? Do you want me to never forget you? Impossible! Steven, if you die, I will forget you on the spot and find a better man!" She stood there and stared at Steven for a while. In fact, she was hoping that Steven could still get up and beg for her forgiveness. However, nothing happened even after a long time. The policeman behind him reminded her, "We need to go..." The next second, Kesha hugged Steven and shouted with a
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
