In the Holt Manor, Hodge had ordered the servants to prepare a variety of nourishing food for Eudora. Meanwhile, Eudora's mind was filled with Tyler's words. He said that he was going to apologize to Amos! She wasn't in the mood to eat. She stood up hurriedly and wanted to chase after him. Amos was already in the hospital, and she did not want Tyler to do unnecessary things. However, Hodge stopped her and said, "Miss Eudora, please trust Mr. Holt. He may look fierce, but he has always kept his words. He will definitely apologize to Mr. Granger since he had told you so. If you are still worried, you may wish to visit Mr. Granger after you have finished your meal." Eudora looked at Hodge suspiciously. "Are you telling the truth?" "Miss Eudora, have I ever lied to you ever since you came back? Don't worry. Hurry up and eat. You have not eaten anything for several days. Mr. Granger might get worried about you if you were to see him like this." Eudo
Winson did not understand his words. "Mr. Holt, what do you mean?" "It's nothing. Get back to work!" Tyler then opened the thermos. The strong aroma came out in an instant, and Tyler felt a burst of jealousy explode within him. "Looks like that silly girl is still not willing to part with that b*stard." The ingredients used to make the soup were all exquisite and of high quality. As Eudora's father, Tyler hadn't even had the chance to taste her cooking. This only served to convince him that the b*stard must not be with her. The situation as of now was the best possible outcome. However, Tyler knew that he needed to seize the opportunity. He must hurry and come up with a new plan while the couple was still embroiled in their misunderstanding. Tyler took a sip of the soup happily. "It's delicious." Winson and Hodge gulped at the same time. ...... At first, Tyler was wondering how he should comfort Eudora. He believed that she would de
Eudora took the opportunity to ask her staff to call the police. The police then took Jack away shortly after. After that, Eudora turned to the old man and said, "Thank you." He smiled back at her and replied, "What's there to thank me for? I'm the one who should thank you! I, for one, am quite curious as to how a nice girl with such an appealing personality like you, would appear in Tyler's store." Eudora was stunned. While she was wondering who would dare to address Tyler using his name so brazenly, she heard Tyler's voice from the door. "Malcom, I'm sorry. We were stuck in traffic along the way. Sorry to keep you waiting!" Malcom snorted. "You are always late! You're always stuck in traffic. You're just too scheming, you old geezer!" Tyler pretended not to hear him and turned to look at Eudora. "Eudora, come quick. Meet Uncle Nolan." Malcom looked at Tyler in shock and gasped, "What? This young woman is your daughter?" "Of course
"Since you've said so, let's just settle this matter right here, right now. There will be a lucky day next week, so let's just set it on that day. I will go back and let Fabian know about it. We shall contact you later!" Malcom then stood up from his seat. After taking two steps, Tyler quickly pointed at Malcom's milkshake and said, "Didn't you say that you are still young? Why aren't you drinking your milkshake? Or were you lying about you being a young man?" Malcom licked his tongue subconsciously. The sweet taste of the milkshake was really not to his liking. However, he did not want to show any sort of weakness in front of Tyler. So, he looked back with a smile. "Why would I lie to you? Of course I like it. I just forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me about it, Tyler!" Meanwhile, Tyler slowly took a sip of his milkshake. He smiled and remained quiet. Once Malcom left, Tyler stuck his tongue out and swallowed the milkshake in his mouth wi
Tina immediately got anxious. "Eudora, we can't go there. Why don't we go to the swings?" Eudora's curiosity was instantly aroused, and she was unwilling to back down. "Just look at how nervous you are. Tell me, what's there to hide?" From Eudora's point of view, there were many shady businesses in the Holt family, so they must be hiding something there. However, Tina quickly covered her mouth and hushed her, "Don't talk nonsense! Dad will be angry if he hears you!" Eudora became even more confused. "But why?" "Actually..." Tina looked troubled and she hesitated for a while. Then, she explained, "To be honest, I have never personally seen it, but I did hear people say that the house is filled with things and portraits of the woman Dad likes. Once, there was a new worker who did not know about this unspoken rule and accidentally entered the house. Dad was extremely angry at her. So, I think that we should just forget about it!" The woman Tyler l
Tina couldn't understand, thus she inquired, "Eudora, I could tell that Dad is really coercing you. If that's the case, why wouldn't you want President Granger to come and save you?" Eudora did not know the best way to explain. Could she just tell Tina that she did not want to implicate Amos into this? Or should she say that the Granger family had problems of their own at the moment too? It was too difficult to reveal these, and she thought that there was no point in telling Tina about them. Hence, Eudora said nonchalantly, "It's not what you think it is. Just forget about it, alright? Promise me that you wouldn't tell anyone about this. If you say it, then don't regard me as your sister ever again." Eudora was a role model to Tina, and she could not accept the fact that she was about to sever ties with her. Tina immediately shook her head and assured her, "I won't reveal anything, not a single word." "That's good. You'd better get out of here quickl
Then, Hodge paused for a moment. Eudora held her breath and asked instinctively, "What happened after that?" "After that..." Hodge sighed heavily. "After that, Mr. Holt took three bullets from the boss. His life was on the line. In the end, it was Mr. Nolan who saved Mr. Holt. He received treatment for half a year before he could be considered healed." Unfortunately, not long after Mr. Holt's disappearance, Madam Emily found out that she was pregnant. So, she accepted her family's arrangement to be with another man..." Eudora frowned. "Another man? Was that..." Hodge nodded and said affirmatively, "That's right. It was precisely the man on your mind." Eudora gawked at Hodge in utter shock. She felt as though her mind was overloaded and she couldn't process the information quickly enough. "You're lying to me!" Eudora said in disbelief. Hodge smiled calmly and responded, "Miss Eudora, you entered that small house the other day, didn't you?
Juju had been by her side since birth, and they had never been separated for such a long time before. Sugar Bun was even more pitiable. As he was born prematurely, he had to be kept in an incubator all this time. Up until this very day, Eudora had never met him, much less holding him in her arms. "How is Sugar Bun doing?" Eudora asked tentatively. She was afraid that she would not be able to stay calm if anything were to happen to her precious baby. However, she couldn't control herself and voiced her concern in the end. After all, that was her son! "He's doing very well!" Tina's tone was quite relaxed. It did not sound like she was lying. "He may have been delivered prematurely, but he has grown fairly quickly. He's just like you, energetic and full of vitality. He just came out of the incubator the last time I visited, and he is as healthy as all the other babies around his age. President Granger has put in a lot of effort too. He even hired a professional bab
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
