My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 1022
According to Naomi's personality, she was not the kind of person who would allow herself to be dispirited.
She realized that she felt quite upset, so she took a deep breath. Then, she threw the oatmeal into the trash can, changed her clothes, and went out.
Amos had once mentioned that the only person who could defeat her was herself.
As long as she could win against herself, no one would be able to control her.
She changed her clothes and went straight to the mall.
Initially, she had wanted to go home. However, she quickly dispelled that notion.
After Cindy and Charlie got married, they came back to Rosaville City. They had watched her grow up! As long as they stayed with her, they would be able to tell that there was something amiss with her mood.
If they were to replace out, Eudora and Amos would as well! She did not want them to be sad because of her.
Moreover, Amos' impression of Nelson was not too good. In fact, deep down in her heart, she believed that something bad had definitely happened to Nelson.
In her mind, he would definitely return and explain everything to her after he was done with his business.
In the shopping mall, Naomi went out to buy clothes, cosmetics, and some decorations for the house. She tidied up her appearance, and then went to buy some cooking ingredients.
When she was about to leave, Cindy stopped her from behind.
"Miss Naomi?"
Naomi was taken aback and said, "Auntie Cindy?"
"It's really you! You're here to buy cooking ingredients?" Cindy felt as if she had seen a new side of Naomi, despite that she had asked her to teach her how to cook a few times before. However, it was the first time that she had seen Naomi attempting to cook. She looked at the ingredients in her hands and knew that it was obviously not her first time!
"Ah..." Naomi nodded. "That's right! I want to cook some of my favorite dishes!"
"Miss Naomi, you're cooking for yourself? Is it
because that Nelson boy did not treat you well?"
Cindy was also a straightforward person! People like them who practiced fighting couldn't be anything but direct.
Naomi held her forehead and said, "No, It's not like that! Don't worry, and please don't tell Mom! It's only because I'm craving it! That's right, I was craving it!" Cindy finally believed her.
"Miss Naomi, please take good care of yourself! Mrs. Granger asked me to prepare some down jackets for you and I will send them to you tomorrow. Your current address is..."
"I'll collect them myself! I'll get them from you another day."
After that, she quickly waved her hand and left.
After she left the mall, she threw everything into the trunk. She sat in the driver's seat, and took a deep breath.
What she was worried about had come true!
After she calmed down for a while, she drove home.
In the evening, she cooked a table of delicious food for herself. When she looked at those dishes, her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
In the past, she had been so focused on practicing self defense that she had not been into the kitchen. She thought that what she would love the most in this lifetime was self defense. However, she had not expected that she would learn how to cook.
Since she had learnt how to cook for herself, she felt like it was a momentous occasion.
Naomi got up again, took a bottle of red wine for herself, and opened it. According to her experience, red wine and steak were a good match.
Naomi took a bite of the meat determinedly. The next second, she spat the meat out with a terrible look on her face.
After she paused for a while, she picked up a fork from the table and took a bite from all of the dishes on the table. All of them did not taste good.
When Naomi threw all of the dishes into the trash can, she realized something.
It turned out that even if she continued to pretend that she did not care about some matters, they were already rooted deeply into her heart. If she were to close them off, she would be in more pain! Nelson had stayed in the hospital for seven days.
He accompanied Tiffany and took care of her every day.
Over the past few days, Tiffany had been elated. Once her mood improved, her condition also gradually followed.
As she was in a good mood, she began to talk about Hank.
When she recounted those beautiful times with Hank, Nelson's expression became indifferent. He said, "He made you suffer so much, so why do you still mention him?"
Upon hearing this, Tiffany became unhappy. She retorted, "You can't say that about him! He is different from the other people in the Granger family!"
"What's the difference between him and them? Didn't he abandon you?" Nelson said coldly. "Otherwise, you wouldn't have married someone else and given birth to me! We wouldn't have..."
"You don't know anything!" Tiffany suddenly shouted. She continued, "Hank was going to run away with me at that time! He was killed by someone! I will never forget that. Even if it was for my sake, you must avenge him."
Nelson pursed his lips and said, "I will take revenge, but not for him!"
Tiffany calmed down a little and said, "No matter what happens, it's good that you don't forget about that incident! I'm fine here, so you'd better go back soon! Miss Chilton is good to us, and we must always remember her good deeds!"
Nelson frowned as he disagreed. Even if his relationship with the Granger family had changed, he still would not trust Monique so much!
It was just that he was unable to explain the situation to Tiffany, therefore he did not bother to either!
"Alright!" he replied flatly.
Monique came in with a bunch of flowers in her hands.
"Auntie, are you feeling better? It looks like you two are having a good time together. There shouldn't be any problems, right?"
"Miss Chilton, you're here! Sit down!" Tiffany said politely.
Monique put down the things in her hands and said, "Don't be so polite! You can just call me Monique!"
"Okay, Monique! It's good enough that you're here to visit me. You didn't have to bring so many things with you! If it wasn't for your care, I don't know what would've happened to me." Monique glanced at Nelson.
Tiffany immediately continued, "Do you have something serious to discuss with Nelson? You two should step outside to talk! I suddenly want to sleep for a while!"
Outside the door, Nelson stood with his back facing Monique.
Monique laughed and said, "I know what you're thinking about. I don't care whether you're going to leave me in the future or not. However, for now, at least our common enemy is the Granger family. You should cut off all your feelings. Now that Amos is not in Rosaville City, our best chance has arrived!"
Monique noticed that Nelson was staying quiet.
So, she continued, "It's difficult to hold anything against the Granger family. The Holt family business has been clean over the years as well. Therefore, we can only lay our hands on their daughter!"
Nelson looked back at Monique. Monique smiled and said, "I think you should understand the plan by now! Naomi not only works in Valiant East, but she also controls an organization. That organization is the best place for us to start!"
Nelson retorted, "She has nothing to do with the past deeds of the Granger family!"
His tone was cold.
"What? It seems that you still can't forget her! However, I've already told you that she is the best opening for us! There are many subordinates in that organization, but they aren't as strong as Valiant East. A few years ago, after Naomi took over, the organization scattered."
"Now, everyone in the organization are good people and they all lead a normal life. There's no one easier to deal with than normal civilians! You should know that as well!"
Nelson said with a sneer, "What's the difference between us and those bad people who hurt my mother?"
Monique frowned and said, "Then, can you bear to see your mother suffering through her final stage of cancer? You don't want to help her to obtain justice at the very end of her life?"
