After settling down in the hotel, Harley looked at Thea tenderly. "Are you hungry? Let's go out and grab some food!" Thea shook her head and sighed, "I'm not going out. I'm going to buy some groceries. Isn't there a place in this residential hotel where we can cook? The doctor said we need to provide sufficient nutrients for him, so..." Harley furrowed his brow as he felt uncomfortable hearing this. Thea shot another glance at Harley and said, "Harley, I..." "It's okay, let's go!" It was his choice. No matter what, he was not going to give up. Not here! However, when he saw how occupied Thea was at the supermarket, he felt jealous. After thinking about it for some time, he finally realized Thea had never cooked anything for him before. But now, she was going to cook something for Martin! ...... After keeping herself occupied for the entire day, Thea finally finished preparing some food. She was about to carry it over to
After a check-up in the hospital, the nurse apologised to them. "Although this gentleman seems to be doing better than last time, I still don't think it's a good idea to operate on him now. It's too risky! You'd better go back and rest for a while longer!" Thea was anxious and said, "Can you do it now? My child can't wait any longer!" "I'm sorry, madam. We really want to help. Doctor Leon put in a good word with us from the start. We'll definitely try our best to help! It's just that there's nothing we can do now!" Thea was on the verge of a breakdown. On one hand, her child was never in a promising condition. On the other hand, Martin hasn't recovered completely. She wasn't sure what to do. Harley reached out and embraced Thea. He said, "Let's head back for now!" Thea looked at Harley and brought it up for the third time again. "Harley, let's get a divorce! I really can't stand it! I can't wait anymore. Cutie Pie can't wait any longer!"
Martin was also dumbstruck. He was baffled and gasped, "It turns out that you've been messing with me! I can't believe I had to put up with the two of you for the past ten days!" What he said was right, though. Although he didn't have to work, he was forced to eat unappetizing yet nutritious food every day. However, before he could finish, Thea and Harley shouted at him simultaneously, "Shut up!" Martin shut up immediately. Both of them were really meant for each other! After a while, he started to speak again. "You guys..." "I told you to shut up!" Martin was speechless. "I have nothing to say! It has nothing to do with me now, so hurry up, settle payments with me and let me go!" The next second, Harley and Thea punched him in both eyes respectively. After that, Thea turned and scurried away. When Harley was about to chase after her, someone held onto his foot. Martin looked up at Harley with his swollen eyes and grunte
Eudora, who was beside them, could only gawk in disbelief. Were her ears deceiving her? Harley said Cutie Pie was his and Thea's son. But didn't he deny it before? Amos suddenly smiled and reached out to hold Eudora's hand. He chuckled, "Let's go. Didn't you mention you wanted to get food?" When they went outside, Eudora couldn't help but gossip. "What's going on? Didn't they say that the child belonged to someone else?" Amos poked her forehead jokingly and explained, "This was an odd coincidence. I suddenly remembered there was a time when Harley had been in a dilemma. Now, I think they might have had it wrong all along." Eudora's eyes lit up. "Are you saying referring to the night where Thea and Harley mistakenly slept with someone else, only to find out now that they had slept with each other?" Amos nodded and said with a teasing tone. "My wife is getting smarter!" Eudora rolled her eyes at him and smirked, "I've always be
Nonetheless, Tina didn't forget to send her menu after her previous message. "Eudora, I want to have your cooking!" Seeing that, Eudora got up and began to put on her clothes. Amos stretched out his hand and pulled her back. "Where are you off to?" She pushed him away and said, "You still had the audacity to ask me. Did you reprimand my sister earlier? It's normal for a pregnant lady like her to have cravings. How could you reprimand her?" He furrowed his brow and said, "Even if she was craving food, she was tiring my wife out. Why can't I reprimand her?" Eudora was stunned for a moment, and then she was touched by what he said. She lowered her head and smiled at him. "I'm not tired!" He pulled her back and said, "Are you really not tired?" "I'm really not tired! I had a good nap earlier. I want to go down and have a look!" The next second, he pressed her onto the bed. "Since you're not tired, then we can do
In fact, Amos had already arrived at the doorway. Hearing her bossy and imperious voice from inside, his lips couldn't help but form a curve. He knew everything. He knew what she wanted to hear from him. She wanted no other than him changing his mind and saying that he would let her have a baby. However, he really couldn't compromise on the matter. Come to think of it, he squatted down again and whispered to Sugar Bun. "Your mommy is angry, so after you go in, try to be more enthusiastic to her, and by all means persuade her to go back, okay?" Sugar Bun nodded and said, "Okay!" As reliable as he was, he rushed towards Eudora as soon as the door was opened. "Mommy, I miss you so much!" Eudora reached out to hug her son. Sugar Bun had always developed much faster than that of an ordinary child. Many children of the same age might not be able to enunciate clearly yet. However, he was already speaking clearly and loudly! After bei
At the dining table, Harley gazed around and noticed that the atmosphere between Eudora and Amos was indeed a bit weird. Therefore, he made a suggestion. "How rare it is for us to gather together so why don't we play a game before we start eating?" "Okay!" Thea said while looking affectionately at him. Since the day they had reconciled, they seemed to be in love all over again. Even her depression was spontaneously healed! If it wasn't for the fact that Cutie Pie was sick, the three of them would be on cloud nine already. Fortunately, his health had taken a favorable turn. From time to time, he could leave the house to play. It couldn't get any better. Christopher agreed and said, "I have no problem with that." Tina was the only one salivating at the beef wellington. She asked, "Can I have a bite first?" Christopher broke into laughter. He grabbed a piece of the dish, placed it onto her plate, and said tenderly, "You can have it!"
In the third round, the vase finally pointed at Amos. It worked as everybody wished. They couldn't help but smile at each other, and asked what they had been deliberating for two days. "We want to know the reason behind your quarrel with each other!" Eudora paused for a second before she looked, perplexed, at Amos. However, he was composed and said, "You all have been mistaken. We've never quarreled!" Harley couldn't put up with him any longer. He said, "Amos, we can tell that you're lying by looking at Eudora's eyes! Besides, we heard from Clint that she's not going to work! You could have made up a more convincing lie!" After he said that, Amos looked disdainfully at him. Harley promptly shut his mouth. Eudora was a bit discouraged. At first, she thought she would be able to get some information out of him, but in the end, he wasn't willing to say anything either. Without hesitation, she got up and went straight to her room. Thea
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
