When Elaine followed him out, she saw Sawyer carrying Eudora. Elaine was stunned and hurriedly came up to him, "What happened to her?" "Maybe she's drunk!" Elaine immediately became furious, "Those people really are too much! How can they treat a woman like this? Fortunately, we had gone just now. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable." As soon as Elaine finished speaking, she felt a cold aura emitting from Sawyer's body. In the blink of an eye, the chill disappeared. Elaine blinked her eyes. She must have made a mistake! In Sawyer's arms, Eudora was still muttering to herself. Elaine listened to her words carefully and instantly felt moved. "I've heard stories about Mr. Granger and Miss George. They were a loving couple! I envy them the most. I thought they would last forever, but life is so unexpected. I have her assistant's number. Why don't I ask him to send her home?" After saying that, Elaine got ready to grab her
The next morning, Eudora was awakened by her phone's ringtone. After answering the call, she heard Clint's anxious voice. "Madam, where are you?" Eudora was stunned for a moment. Only then did she realize that she was actually in an unfamiliar place. The decorations around her were solemn. She suddenly sat up, her head no longer feeling as heavy as it had been yesterday. Just as she was about to open her mouth, she saw a figure walking in. She was stunned and said to Clint on the other end of the call, "I'm fine. What's wrong? Did Sugar Bun miss me because I didn't go back?" "No, someone had already informed Cindy last night that you have something important to deal with and can't come back for the time being." "Therefore, Cindy took good care of the little master. You can be rest assured." Eudora breathed a sigh of relief, "Alright. I'll go back later." After hanging up the phone, she looked at the man who came in. He
Eudora stopped in her tracks, "What do you mean by got really unlucky?" "Just like what I've said, their companies have been run into problems. A few companies got investigated for various reasons by the authorities. One of them got the worst outcome of all. Their share prices have been going up and down like a rollercoaster since this morning. Some older shareholders even had a heart attack! That was why I wanted to ask you if something had happened last night." Eudora shook her head, "Nothing happened!" "That's good! It must have been a coincidence then! Interestingly, most of the companies affected were companies with bad reputations. Perhaps the heavens were punishing them." Eudora nodded, "Yes!" When she returned to her desk, Eudora sat alone in front of the computer and stared blankly for a while. Although she had been drunk last night, she had still been sober when everything had happened. She could easily remember some of the details. S
Elaine replied, "Oh? I'm not very sure either. When I came out just now, I heard her assistant calling her. I think it's about her daughter!" "Her daughter? What's wrong?" Elaine was surprised, "What's up with you? Don't you think that you're paying too much attention to Miss George? Don't tell me that you've taken a fancy to her!" Sawyer did not reply, looking as gloomy as before. Elaine rolled her eyes and said, "Every time I criticize you, you show me this reaction. I don't know what to do with you. I don't think a big deal happened. It seems that her daughter had some misunderstandings with her!" Sawyer's finger paused. To others, that might not be a big deal. However, Eudora loved her two children very much. She had suffered a lot when she had been pregnant with Juju and Sugar Bun. If Juju really had misunderstood her, how could she stand it? No wonder her eyes had been swollen when he had seen her! At the thought of that, Sawy
Eudora stayed a little unhappy for the whole day. After talking to Elaine, she went back to the company to deal with some work and only went home after that. Usually, Sugar Bun would welcome her at the door. However, there was no one at the door this time. Eudora quickened her pace and entered the house. Just as she stepped inside the house, she heard laughter coming from the living room. When she looked closer, she got stunned on the spot. On the carpet in the living room, Juju and Sugar Bun were playing with some building blocks. The two children were playing together just like before. The house was filled with joy. Eudora pinched herself and winced in pain. Only then did she realize that she was not dreaming. Juju had really come back. She wanted to go closer, but when she thought of how much Juju hated her, she stopped in her tracks. Perhaps, she should stay outside for a little longer and let the two children have a good time?
After Eudora went back, she tidied up herself and prepared breakfast for Sugar Bun. Shortly after, Charlie also came back. Eudora looked at Charlie eagerly. She could not relax until he had told her that everything went well and Juju was elated as well. Then, she felt at ease. "That's good." After a short pause, she said, "I've cooked a lot of food. All of you should eat it! I'll ask the driver to send me to the company." ...... She had not slept well the previous night. On the way to the company, Eudora relaxed and closed her eyes to rest for a bit. They arrived at the crossroads. The driver was murmuring in his seat, "There seems to be an accident in front. There are many people. Madam, shall we take another route?" Eudora nodded in a daze, "Okay!" Then, the driver turned around. As soon as the car turned around, Eudora heard a sharp honk. Then, her whole body shuddered violently, and she heard a loud bang. She was completel
Elaine felt as if Sawyer was about to break her arm. A trace of fear suddenly emerged in her heart. "Sawyer, let go of me first. You're hurting me!" At that point, Sawyer realized that he had lost his composure. He took a step back and asked anxiously, "Answer the question I asked just now." Elaine frowned, "Oh, I've just come back from the hospital. Miss George has been involved in a car accident today, but you..." Before she could tell him that she was fine, Sawyer had already put down his luggage and ran out afterwards. Elaine's words got stuck in her throat. She sighed after a long time, "Have you really fallen in love with her?" ...... In the hospital, Sawyer stood outside the ward. Through the glass window of the door, he quietly looked at the patient inside. Eudora was sitting on the hospital bed, looking through documents. Her legs were wrapped in a cast while being hung up. A frown appeared on Sawyer's face. At this
The two looked into each other's eyes. Somehow, Eudora felt as if she was staring into his soul. For some reason, she felt her heart ache. At that moment, she hallucinated seeing Amos. Before she could take another look, Sawyer had already propped her up and helped her to sit down. "Be careful! Didn't your assistant tell you to not read the documents anymore?" His voice was extremely faint, but it carried a domineering aura. For some reason, Eudora felt a mysterious pressuring aura. Ever since Amos had left, she had not felt this sensation ever since. Now, she was in charge of all the affairs in the company. Usually, she was the one who would put pressure on others. No one else dared to put pressure on her. Just as she was thinking about that, Sawyer stretched his hand out and took away all the documents. "It's time for dinner. You need to eat something!" Only then did Eudora remember what he had said in the afternoon about him comi
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
