Cindy immediately replied, "She fell down in the garden just now. Madam, how do you feel now?" It really did hurt a little, so Eudora nodded in agreement. She answered, "It's kind of painful." The doctor examined Eudora and said, "It's just soft tissue damage. Although it isn't a big issue, the area will hurt for a long time. You were too careless. It's fortunate that we've come to visit just in time. Otherwise, you probably would have just ignored it! You should be careful as it might cause more complications in the future." Cindy grew scared and said, "Luckily you've gotten here in the nick of time. We wouldn't want any complications to happen." After the doctor left, Cindy went to Eudora's side. She told Eudora, "Let me help you to bed to rest!" Eudora said helplessly, "It's not a big deal. The doctors usually exaggerate!" "Madam, if not for your sake, at least think about Miss Juju and Little master." "Fine, fine!" Eudora had no
Cindy stared at Sawyer intently. Amos and him clearly looked like two different people, but why did Sawyer's instinctual actions remind her of the other? Sawyer had already carried Sugar Bun with both arms just as she was thinking about that. "Little master, don't call just anyone 'Dad'. I'm not your father!" Cindy snapped out of her daze and quickly went forwards to take Sugar Bun back from Sawyer. "I'm sorry!" Sawyer shook his head and walked towards Sugar Bun as he bid farewell in a solemn manner. "Sugar Bun, thank you for liking me. I'm very happy with that, but people eventually have to part ways. Even when we've parted ways, it doesn't mean we won't meet again! As long as you grow up well, we might have a chance to meet again in the future!" Cindy stood there awkwardly and listened to the conversation between Sawyer and Sugar Bun. She felt utterly helpless! Sugar Bun was still a young child, so how could he understand anything Sawyer said
The room was neat and tidy. Sawyer did not leave a single item behind. After searching the whole house, Eudora was tired and out of breath. She leaned against the wall and sat on the ground. She tried to recall everything that had happened since Sawyer had first appeared. When Eudora realized that she might have wholly misjudged him this time, she felt even more regretful. Her eyes gradually drooped, and she thought of another certain possibility in her mind. She hurriedly turned her head away. Impossible. It couldn't be! He would have reunited with them if he was indeed Amos! At most, he might have been acquainted with Amos before. Since Amos was long gone, he had come to take care of them. Eudora comforted herself for a moment. Just as she was about to get up, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw a piece of white paper at the end of the bed. She felt a chill in her heart. She stepped forward and grabbed the piece of paper.
Eudora and Sugar Bun dashed to the train station. She called Clint while she was on her way. "Help me locate Sawyer's whereabouts at once." Clint asked curiously, "What's wrong?" "Don't ask any questions. Just help me locate him!" After hanging up on the call, Eudora stretched her hands out to hold Sugar Bun in her arms. "Sugar Bun, aren't I such a fool? Your father was right in front of me, but I couldn't even recognize him. I've hurt him so many times. I'm truly the dumbest person in the world!" "Oh," Sugar Bun said. She grasped Eudora's finger with his small hand as if he was comforting her. Clint called back a moment later. "Madam, I can't locate Sawyer's whereabouts." Eudora pursed her lips. "What about the information he left in the company?" Clint replied softly, "We couldn't trace him just now, so I tried checking his profile. It's strange that when he joined the company, his information had been correct. The company h
Amos frowned. "Did she find out too?" "Of course she did. In fact, based on her understanding of you, she should have realized beforehand. However, you are so cunning that you kept confusing her judgment." "The other thing is that the news of your death clouded her judgment. That's why she didn't find out! Bro, how could you do this to her? How could you not tell me about such a big thing?" Amos pursed his lips, "I didn't know where to start." That time, Wesley had used his body to protect him at that critical moment. Despite that, both of them had been injured by the explosion! Wesley died on the spot and Amos almost lost his life back then as well. However, he was lucky. Then, Doctor Leon rescued him when he was admitted to the hospital. At first, Doctor Leon wanted to tell everyone else, but Amos did not allow him to do so. Doctor Leon thought that it was a miracle for him to be alive because his situation was indeed terrible. H
The kiss shocked Amos greatly. The warm lips he felt made him realize that he was not dreaming at that moment. However... The next second, Amos pushed Eudora away. "Aren't you a-afraid of me?" "Why would I be afraid of you?" Eudora shook her head. "You are my husband! When I was in danger, when I was in a mess, and at a loss for what to do, you've always been by my side! For me, you're willing to do anything. You've made compromises multiple times. In your heart, am I someone who will only be with you when you are at your best, but not at your worst?" Eudora picked up Sugar Bun after a short pause. "We are a family. We will not give up on anyone for whatever reason, even more when you're a family member!" Sugar Bun did not seem to be scared at all. Instead, he reached out to Amos with a smile, "Dad..." Amos was flustered and rooted to the spot. He was extremely shocked. Although he was an adult man, he almost broke down instan
After settling Sugar Bun down for the night, Eudora went back to her room. She saw Amos standing in the middle of the bedroom, looking at the photo on the table. Eudora had taken that photo secretly in the past and it was of him playing with the children. The sunshine had been just right. It had come through the cracks of the windowsill and covered his side profile with a layer of golden light. After staring at it for a while, Amos could not help but reach out and touch his face again. Eudora entered the room at that moment. She came to a halt just as she pushed the door halfway open. After pausing for a moment, she smiled and opened the door. "Do you want to take a shower first, or should I take a shower first?" "You should go first!" Amos came back to his senses and said in a low voice. Amos had tried his best to talk to her and get along with her like they had done so in the past. However, his voice was overly raspy, and Amos' express
Eudora entered the car. Just as she did so, the driver asked, "Are you heading to the company?" Eudora shook her head and said, "No, let's go to Doctor Leon's place first!" Doctor Leon seemed to have known that Eudora would come early in the morning and had already prepared everything. The two of them went straight to the point without engaging in any small talk. "How is Amos' overall situation?" Doctor Leon handed the documents in his hand to Eudora. "His burns cover over eighty percent of his body. Amos' throat has also been damaged because of the fire. There won't be any problems for the time being, even if he doesn't get any treatment. However, if it goes on like this, there will be complications. Therefore, no matter in which aspect, I suggest that he receive treatment!" That was exactly what should be done! Although Eudora failed to care much about his appearance, she knew how big of a blow it was to a person. Wasn't that the
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
