My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 1172

After saying that, Rachel strode away.

Truth be told, she felt a bit disgusted with herself. She had been so upfront when she was talking about Bianca's matter but when it came to her own affairs, she was not straightforward at all.

That was the human heart.

She did not want to walk the same path as Bianca, therefore she forced herself not to turn back. As long as she did not look back, she would not have any reason to go back.

Rachel walked aimlessly alone on the road.

Her mind was filled with words that Bianca had said to her since she was a child.

"You have to behave yourself."

"You have to be ladylike because you're a young lady from a respectable family."

"You have to be virtuous and graceful!"

"In the future, you have to be a good wife and mother."

When she was a child, she did not understand, and she would ask in confusion.

"Mom, if | behaved like a lady from a respectable family who was virtuous and graceful, would someone like me and treat me well?"

Bianca had replied, "Of course! No one likes disobedient girls."

However, Bianca had failed to mention that even if someone liked her, their feelings would change anytime. She sneered.

Suddenly, she heard a commotion, "Hey, what are you doing? Come back!"

"Do you have a death wish? The traffic light was green!"

Rachel came to her senses and found that she had come to the middle of the road.

The traffic of the crossroads was extremely busy as it was peak hour.

Before Rachel could make out where she was, she was shocked by the deafening sound of cars. She had no idea whether to move forwards or backwards.

Squeak— The sharp sound of wheels pierced her eardrums.

Rachel thought she would definitely die there. At that critical moment, someone suddenly pulled her from behind and into an embrace.

The car whizzed past her back. The noise of passersby gradually subsided. It was only then that Rachel realized that the person who had saved her was Eddison.

Enraged, he said, "You're crazy! You told me not to follow you, but you came looking for your own death? If you were so weak and chose to end your life because of a small matter, why did you argue so unreasonably just now? Fortunately, | followed you! Do you know that you scared me to death?"

Rachel felt a lump in her throat.

She had lost both her parents.

She had thought she had nothing left, but at that moment, Eddison appeared again.

Sensing that she was crying, Eddison's voice became a little softer.

"I'm sorry, | didn't mean to be so fierce to you. | was really scared just now! If you're no longer here, then what should | do?" Rachel looked at him blankly.

"Why are you being so nice to me?"

Eddison was stunned, "We're friends!"

"But | told you that | don't need you to be so kind to me!"

"Then, let me tell you! | treat all my friends well! Rachel, even if you don't have your parents, you still have me! In the future, no matter what, | will always stand by your side! | will take you back to the Granger family. You can do whatever you want..."Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Before his voice died away, Rachel jumped into Eddison's arms.

Truth be told, humans were quite strong. No matter how hard the situation was and how much pressure they faced, they could still grit their teeth and endure things!

However, sometimes, humans could also be incredibly fragile.

As long as they were given a warm hug and kind words, they would let themselves lose and sink into their emotions. Rachel burst into tears in Edison's arms.

“Don't you know that you have put yourself in trouble now? | may keep pestering you in the future!"

"I'm not afraid of that!" Eddison smiled and said, "Just keep pestering me!"

"Then, you can't be with the person you like!"

Eddison fell silent.

Rachel gradually loosened her hold on his arm. Her heart, which had warmed up a little, gradually fell to the pits. That was right. She had overthought things.

Who did she think she was?

She was just an unexpected guest who had forced herself into Eddison's life. To be honest, Eddison was putting up with her well enough.

When she had met with trouble, he had decided to go back to the country with her. No matter what she did, he always stood by her side. If she was bullied, he would help her.

He had even blocked the vase for her just then, and he was the one who saved her from colliding into a car.

If she were to shamelessly pester him, it would be too much.

She must have lost her head at that moment.

Rachel's hand slowly slipped downwards, but they were once again pulled back by Eddison.

"Then, don't let go!"

Rachel was stunned. As she was astonished, her voice became hoarse.

“What did you say?"

"| said, since you don't want to let go, then just keep holding on. I'm Eddison Granger, so what's there to be afraid of?" “But you..." Rachel paused. "Don't you have someone you like?"

Eddison was stunned, but then he began to mock himself.

"| did not expect you to see through me! Yes, | do like someone, but she doesn't like me! So, I've decided to give you a chance! Just tell me whether you want me to do so or not."

"I do!"

Rachel's tone had no hesitation.

Of course, she wanted it!

Why wouldn't she?

He was the person she liked, and he was a good person!

"That's good! Listen to me, go back with me first. When we're done, we'll go back to school!" Rachel no longer said anything. It was time for her family's affairs to come to an end.

In Greene City.

Aaron felt that Culver's mood was much worse than before.

It seemed that since he had come back from the date, the stylist who had helped him get ready had been fired.

After that, Culver had offended a few partners and clients because of some small matters.

Everyone in the company was on their toes and even Aaron felt like he was walking on the edge every day.

The day before, after Culver came back, the expression on his face became even more terrible.

That was why Aaron was hesitating if he should enter Culver's office to report about work matters.

As he was in contemplation, the telephone rang from the outside. The receptionist cried, "Assistant Clarke, help us out!" They were all begging for his help.

Aaron immediately refused.

"No way!"

"I'm begging you! Next time, I'll buy

"What's the matter?"

"Who is it?"

"She said her name is Naomi!"

Oh my goodness!

Aaron was so shocked that his phone almost fell to the floor!

"Mr. Olsen doesn't want to see her! Send her away quickly!"

If he remembered correctly, it was because Culver saw her that his mood turned bad, right?

The receptionist was embarrassed, "She said it's for business, though! How about | let you talk to her?" Aaron looked at the tightly-shut office door behind him. After hesitating for a long time, he agreed.

"Tell her to wait for me downstairs. Keep our meeting low-profile and don't let anyone see her!"

"Okay!"

After hanging up on the call, Aaron breathed a sigh of relief, and the door behind him suddenly opened. “Ask her to come up!"

Aaron was taken aback as he said, "What?"

"I'm talking about Naomi! Ask her to come up!"

Aaron was surprised.

He did not expect Culver to actually overhear his conversation.

Fortunately, he had not said anything bad!

However, just as he felt relieved, Culver suddenly said, ‘Youveagreet t bribes therafdré You won't be getting any bonuses next month!" Please read the original content at .

Aaron was flabbergasted, "| haven't accepted them yet!"

The door was slammed shut again!
