Juju had always been easy to get along with. She had always been an obedient and considerate child. Eudora had never dealt with this kind of situation and she didn't know what to do at that moment. She just wanted to quickly bring Sugar Bun out from the water and check on him. However, the more she tried to do that, the more he struggled. In the end, Eudora didn't dare to carry him anymore, but Sugar Bun was still crying. Eudora's heart tightened and tears welled up in her eyes. She hoped that Amos and Juju would come back soon. A middle-aged woman next to her seemed to have noticed the situation and she quickly swam over... "Could it be that something in the swimming pool has entangled around the little fellow's leg? Don't panic, the child is very scared now. He would only become even more frightened if you panic!" Eudora nodded and she immediately dived into the water to have a look. Sure enough, she saw a tassel entangling Sugar Bun's
Eudora stood at the dining table downstairs and looked at the dishes in dismay. She felt that she was the worst mother on earth. She was too busy to attend to her children when they needed her in the past. Now, her children no longer needed her. It was probably karma. Cindy noticed Eudora crying silently when she stepped into the kitchen. The once beautiful and carefree Eudora had become so unhappy because of her children. Cindy sighed, "Why don't I take the food and have Mr. Granger feed them to Sugar Bun? I'm sure he'll like them!" "That way, you could cook for him in the future too!" Eudora's eyes lit up. "That's a good idea. I'm sorry to trouble you then, Cindy." Eudora was a bit flustered. She wanted to bring everything that she had prepared, but that was only so much space. Cindy smiled and said, "Mrs. Granger, please calm down. It takes time for Sugar Bun to get close to anyone. You two will be fine in the future, I'm sure!
He was so proud of her. No matter what happened, she could always pluck up the courage to start over again. How could he not love a woman like her? Eudora pushed him away and started to gather the toys. She then looked at him with bright eyes. "Shall we go shopping?" Amos glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. It was almost 11 p.m. "It's late. We should rest. We'll go tomorrow morning, alright?" "No, we have to go now. Sugar Bun will already be awake when we get up tomorrow morning. By then, we won't have time to go out." "Alright then!" Amos nodded. He would do everything for her as long as she was happy. "I'll change my clothes then!" Eudora then made her way upstairs in a haste. Amos gave Clint a call. Meanwhile, Clint was enjoying a romantic night at home. It was the first time Anya had come over to his house after dating for more than half a year. It was already 11 p.m. Clint had opened a red wine bottle, a
Harley's jaw fell. What the f*ck! He never thought that Amos would do such a strange thing. It would have been fine if they had worn that secretly in their bedroom, but they were wearing it in front of him and Thea now! Harley buried his face in his hands and tried to gesture to Thea to leave, but Thea had already run towards Eudora. "Eudora, your clothes are so pretty!" It seemed that there was indeed such a thing as pregnancy brain. "Where did you buy it? I want to buy one too!" Harley was astonished. He went over hurriedly and suggested, "One wouldn't be enough, would it? You could buy more if you want!" "Yes, let's ask Tina to join us too. The three of us will wear this to go shopping in the future. It will look so good..." Harley covered Thea's mouth and said, "Oh dear, how could you go shopping in this?" Eudora looked at Harley in confusion and asked, "Why can't we go shopping in it? It's just a cosplay suit!" Was
They were done with their meal shortly after. Amos carried Eudora into his arms when she yawned. "Let's take a nap." She had gone shopping the night before and she got up especially early in the morning to try on her new clothes. It was a given that she would be tired. Eudora was still holding her phone, refusing to let go. This time, Amos was firm. However, he compromised once again when Eudora started pouting like a little child, "I'll let you have the phone after you wake up." Only then did Eudora close her eyes reluctantly. She really did feel exhausted. The adrenaline in her body was still pumping minutes ago. The fatigue started to overcome her once Amos reminded her of it. Amos stared at her. He got up and looked at Eudora's phone after she fell asleep. He was not very familiar with phones because he didn't like to use them. Clint would usually make the appointments on his behalf. All he had to do was make calls whenever necessary.
Eudora and Amos arrived at the address given by Gordon ten minutes after. It was a mediocre residential area. Eudora had arranged a nice sanatorium for Gordon previously, but he moved out of that place because of Kesha. It was the first time Eudora realized that Gordon was living here. The alley was very dark, and there was a strange smell in the air. Eudora and Amos quickly walked in, and they finally found the place that matched Gordon's description. They knocked on the door, and soon, Gordon opened the door. His eyes were dull, but they immediately brightened up when he saw Eudora. "Eudora, hurry. Kesha has been waiting for you." Eudora was curious. Didn't Kesha hate her? Why did she still ask her when she was in such a terrible state? Following Gordon's instructions, Eudora finally saw Kesha for the last time. Yes, it was the last time. Kesha was lying on a single bed against the window. She was looking out of the wi
Kesha's funeral was not held extravagantly and Gordon preferred it that way. Kesha was already in a very miserable state when she passed and he didn't want to restrain her any longer. It only took less than half a day for her to be buried. Eudora was very concerned about Gordon's state, therefore, she followed him. She accompanied him, who stood in front of Kesha's tomb for a long time. Soon, darkness fell, Gordon sighed and said, "Let's head back!" Eudora looked at Gordon worriedly. Gordon was first to speak. "Don't worry about me. I will go back to the sanatorium since Kesha is no longer here. I don't wish to trouble you anymore. My only wish is that both you and Amos will get along just fine. At least, I'd be in peace when my time is up here." Eudora chased after him, "Let me accompany you back!" "There's no need for that!" Gordon waved his hand, "I'll go by myself. I'm haven't lost my memory yet." Even so, Eudora drove behind Go
Amos had always had an intimidating aura about him. Even just by standing at the side without doing anything, it was enough to make others tremble with fear. Let alone now that he was glaring at the woman with anger in his eyes. The landlady froze in fear. She took a deep breath to calm her nerves/ "Who are you? This woman framed me. What's there to do with you?" "Framed you?" Amos gritted his teeth, "I did not see her frame you in any way." The woman pursed her lips, "Well, too bad for you. I, on the other hand, have seen enough." Amos smirked and looked at the bodyguards behind him, "It doesn't matter. I'll just act according to what I see now!" The bodyguards went ahead and started kicking the woman. She started screaming, and her face and body were scattered with bruises in no time. Just moments earlier, she claimed that she was a rich person, and an arrogant one too. "Who the hell are you? How could you do this to me? We'
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
