The next day, Old Master Granger invited a group of famous doctors to give his son a full body check-up. However, the result showed that Amos had no problem at all. Old Master Granger once again told the doctors about Amos' condition yesterday. Upon hearing this, the doctors were confused as well. One of them said, "Well, I've never encountered such a situation before. There must be a cause for this if the rash was really so severe." The other doctors also nodded their heads. They said, "Likewise. We've never seen this before too. Perhaps this is due to psychological factors since you mentioned that there is one person who could cure his rash. She might be the key to the illness." After the doctors left, Old Master Granger felt frustrated. Eudora George thought that the Old Master was just concerned over his son's health. While she was watching him, Old Master Granger suddenly lost his balance. Eudora held him immediately and said, "Pl
Amos Granger stared at Christopher Gellert's shoulder for two seconds. Then, he walked over and held Eudora George's hand. He frowned instantly when he saw the teeth mark on Eudora's arm. He asked, "What happened?" Eudora covered the mark with her hand immediately and said, "Oh, nothing. During the commotion earlier, I accidentally…" "Let's go. We need to disinfect your wound," Amos said. "There's no need..." But before she could finish her words, Amos carried her up. They were in the corridor so Eudora immediately compromised. "Okay, put me down. I'll go with you!" Upon hearing this, Amos put her down and took her to the outpatient clinic. Christopher stared at them and narrowed his eyes. After a long while, he stood up and exclaimed, "Eudora, you can get off work first. We'll talk about it tomorrow." Since Christopher had said so, and there was nothing else to do in the hospital, Eudora followed Amos back after receiving treatment.
After saying that, the woman held the two children in her arms and walked to the edge of the rooftop. Eudora George's legs went weak when she thought of the height of this building. It was more than ten floors! The two children were still young. They looked as if they would fall from the building when the strong wind blew on them. Eudora's heart quivered. She said, "Sister, please don't act rashly. The children are innocent!" The woman had gone crazy. She didn't care about whether the children were innocent or not. She just stood there with two children in her arms and said, "People like you don't understand my situation! I must bring my children along and leave this world together with me because they're innocent. They're still so young, without their father, they'll suffer in the future. I don't want them to be hopeless like me!" The woman's words hit hard on everyone's conscience. "No!" Eudora was anxious. "I understand your feelings! But, it
Why would Old Master Granger come here in the middle of the night? Both of them got up immediately. After changing their clothes, they went downstairs. The living room was brightly lit. Old Master Granger was sitting quietly on the big sofa in the middle of the living room. There were bodyguards standing behind him. "Dad!" Amos came forward and greeted him. Old Master Granger looked at him up and down immediately. In the end, he fixed his eyes on the wound on Amos' arm. "Sit down quick. Doctor William, please examine his wound carefully," Old Master Granger said. "It's just a minor injury. I've already cleaned it," Amos said. However, Old Master Granger refused to let him go. He said, "You should take care of yourself carefully. Don't forget your identity." He glanced at Eudora briefly when he said this. Amos had no choice but to sit down and let Doctor William examine his wound. In the end, Doctor William said that it was only a mi
"Amos Granger." Eudora George thought. Eudora George shook her head immediately. "No! But thank you for your kindness," Eudora replied. There was indeed a deal between Amos and Eudora. However, the deal was only related to the Meyer family's matter. Even after the Meyer family's matter was settled, she did not want to rely on Amos. She wanted to be independent. Eudora was satisfied even if this relationship would only last for a year. What's more, Amos got himself into trouble too. Both of them remained silent in the car when they were on their way back. After a long time, Christopher broke the silent. "Well, I guess my Second Brother and my stepmother will laugh at me now. But, I'm not afraid of this. I've been used to this since I was young. So you don't have to worry about me." Eudora furrowed her brows. Christopher thought that she was still in a bad mood. Therefore, he continued, "You have a good foundation. You c
Eudora didn't think it was suitable to ask him now. She hid her curiosity in her heart and looked at Amos worriedly. But he wasn't flustered at all. He smiled, "Mr. Cooper, you don't have to be afraid of me. May I ask if your clients know that you have a habit of blaming others?" "You..." Jeremy Cooper stuttered and was on verge of losing his temper. He swallowed his rage as Thomas was still there. "We're not done with this!" He roared. "I'll be waiting!" Jeremy left with Thomas right away. Thomas gazed at Amos with a puzzled look. After they left, Amos asked Eudora, "Why are you still here?" Eudora pursed her lips unconsciously and answered, "I have something to talk to Mr. Cooper. But, it's alright. I'm leaving now." She didn't want to ask much as it was still within her working hours. When they left the building, Harley teased, "It seems like Eudora is trying to hide something from you!" Amos frowned and ordered, "Go and ch
"To give birth to a child?" Astonished, Eudora's eyes widened. "Why? Do you not want to?" The Old Master asked, "In my opinion, if you have feelings for Amos and you are staying with him for a year, you two should have a child!" "That's different!" Eudora exclaimed, "A child should grow up in an environment filled with love. I can't do that!" "Miss George, I hope you can reconsider," he added, "Tell me if you have any other conditions..." She interrupted, "No, I am not going to do this! I won't agree!" The old master's face darkened upon hearing her words. "Miss George, do you think I would ask you to do such a thing if you're not with Amos? I thought you would be more sensible and understanding," he sneered and continued, "Amos has done so much for you. I thought you would at least do this for him. I guess I'm wrong. Go back now!" Eudora didn't reply at all and left instantly. Harry Granger saw her when she was about to leave the room.
Amos froze for a second and asked, "Why do you ask such a question?" Her conversation with the Old Master about how a child should grow up in a loving environment echoed in her thoughts. "No reason. If you are..." She replied. "I don't want to!" Amos quickly interrupted. It was as if he was afraid that she would blurt out more unreasonable requests. He added, "Who do you think you are? We are not in that kind of relationship. Having a child with you is not what I look for." "Oh!" Eudora's heart skipped a beat. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked such an absurd question." Although she knew in her heart that this was going to happen, she still felt inexplicably upset and disappointed when she heard it herself from Amos. Even though she knew that she shouldn't have expected much from their relationship since the beginning, but she realised that perhaps deep inside her heart, there was still a little sliver of hope. Annoyed at her facial
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
