My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 1021

Granger?

When Nelson looked at words on the document, he only felt a burst of pain.

Patrick continued to speak.

"I remember you mentioned before that there was a grudge between your family and the Granger family, no? You went back because you wanted to deal with them, right? I really didn't expect that they would do such a thing. Nelson, I think..."

Before he was able to continue, Nelson interrupted him.

"Thank you. If you need any help in the future, I will definitely lend you a hand! I still have something to do here, so I will hang up first..."

"Nelson..." Patrick could obviously tell that there was something wrong with Nelson's voice. He asked with concern, "What's the matter? Why do you sound so sad?" Nelson frowned lightly and asked, "Sad?"

"Yes, that's right. You sound like you're going to lose something important to you. What's the matter?"

Lose something important?

Nelson raised his hand and touched his heart as he felt a dull pain in his chest.

He was stunned for a while before he answered, "Maybe I'm really going to lose something really important to me!"

Patrick failed to understand his words. So, he answered, "Since you already know that you will lose it, then grab a hold of it tightly! That way, you won't lose them!" Grab a hold of it?

Was that possible anymore?

Nelson smiled bitterly. Tiffany, who was beside him dreaming, suddenly gripped his hand tightly. Nelson quickly snapped out of his thoughts and hung up on the call. "Help!" Tiffany screamed on top of her lungs. She must have had some kind of nightmare, and she was shouting with all her might.

A nurse heard the noise and rushed into the ward.

"The patient's condition is not too good. We need to give her a sedative. It's better for her family members to go out first!"

"There's no need for that!" Nelson shook his head. "Just give it to her!"

"You're..." The nurse looked at his injured arm that had been grabbed tightly by Tiffany and said,

"Your wound needs to be treated!"

"It'll be fine!"

The nurse had no choice but to nod. Then, a few of the nurses rushed over to give Tiffany the sedative. After a while, Tiffany finally calmed down.

The nurse then treated Nelson's wound. When he came out from the ward, it was already early in the morning. There was no one in the corridor. Nelson could hear his own footsteps and also the notification sound from his phone.

He subconsciously took it out and looked at it. It was a message from Naomi.

Truth be told, it was not the only one. Ever since he had left Rosaville City, Naomi had sent him countless messages.

Previously, he hadn't replied to her because he did not have the time to do so, but at the moment, he only felt irony as he looked at her message.

As he looked at the messages, his phone rang again with another call from Naomi. His fingers paused and then instantly rejected the call!

After he took a few steps, his phone rang again.

This time, he felt a little angry for no reason. He quickly answered the phone with anger.

"Why are you calling?"

Naomi seemed to be stunned for a moment, perhaps a little confused by his indifferent tone.

After a few seconds, she asked in a low voice, "What happened to you?"

"I'm fine!" Nelson's voice was still faint, and his words carried a distant feeling.

Although Naomi appeared to be carefree on the surface, her mindset was similar to Eudora's and she was actually very delicate. She also realized that something might have happened to Nelson as he was treating her this way.

She no longer dared to say anything more

However, she only reminded him, "If you are too tired, take a break. I'm fine at home, you..."

"You don't have to be worried about me. I will take good care of myself."

However, before she could finish her sentence, Nelson had already hung up on the call.

She listened to the beeping tone, and her heart was inexplicably filled with coldness.

On the other end, Nelson regretted his decision to hang up on her. Although the incident had something to do with the Granger family, it was unwise for him to vent his anger on her.

At that time, she had been so young that she failed to be aware of anything.

However, as soon as he saw Tiffany's condition, he remembered that her condition had ended up so due to the Granger family. He even felt angry at himself as he had once thought about giving up on that hatred and wanting to live a good life with Naomi.

He felt sorry for Tiffany, who had given birth to him and raised him. He was not a filial son!

He took a deep breath and returned to the ward.

The autumn weather was cold. After several days of heavy rain, the temperature gradually dropped a lot.

After her conversation with Nelson the other day, Naomi forced herself to stop contacting Nelson for a while.

However, whenever she was home alone, she would subconsciously look at everything in the room, and she would feel inexplicably sad.

Although she comforted herself that Nelson must have been very busy, she still felt upset. She was unable to ignore the sorrow in her heart.

She had gotten used to the sweetness he had given her, but he had quietly taken it away at the moment, leaving her with bitterness. How could she not feel sad?

Eudora gave her a call.

"Juju, it's getting cold. I've asked Cindy to prepare some down jackets and delicious food for you. If you and Nelson are free, you two can head home to pick them up, okay?" "Okay!" Naomi nodded as she held a bowl of oatmeal in her hands.

After Nelson left, she did not even want to go to the market alone. She felt quite hungry, therefore she only cooked a bowl of oatmeal for herself.

To her delight, she was able to make simple dishes! At the very least, she would not starve herself to death!

"What's wrong? Why do you sound so unhappy?" Eudora asked.

Naomi quickly shook her head and tried to make her voice sound lighter.

"I'm fine! Maybe I'm a little tired. I've been busy with the company recently!"

Eudora quickly put the blame on Amos, who was beside her. She said to him, "There are too many things to deal with in the company, and Naomi is exhausted!"

Amos said innocently, "There are many executives in charge of the company's affairs. How tired can she be when she only needs to do her part? She is still young now, so she should suffer more..."

"I don't care! I want to go back and see Naomi!" "No! We've agreed that you'll rest well here..."

Naomi listened, feeling both envious and sad. If only Nelson was with her, then she would be able to talk to him face to face and even quarrel with him.

It would be great if they didn't need to hide like this!

"Mom..." Her nose was a little sour as she was saying, "I'm really fine, so don't worry about me! Take care of yourselves!"

Eudora pursed her lips and asked, "Are you really fine?"

"Yes, I am! Dad is right. I need to be tougher!"

"Alright then. Where's Nelson? He promised that he would take care of you! Why didn't we hear his voice?"

Naomi was stunned and said, "Oh, he's been very busy recently as well. He has things to do at his company, but you can be rest assured, he is very good to me!"

"That's good! As long as he treats you well, then I can rest assured! Then..."

Eudora still wanted to say something else, but Naomi had already interrupted her, "Mom, I'm going to hang up now. Nelson told me that he had booked a table at a restaurant outside. We're going out to eat now. Bye, Mom!"

After that, before Eudora could reply, Naomi had already hung up on the call.

Then, her eyes felt slightly teary, and she raised her hand to wipe her face.

"It'll be fine, it'll be fine! Everything will be fine!" She told herself as she thought of her current situation.
