My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 1140

Rachel had an important job that needed her presence on that day. It was not until she finished her

work that she knew Jarred had gone to the Granger family and picked a fight with Eddison.

She hurriedly went over, only to find that Jarred had come out of the Granger family's house.

"Dad, it's not Eddison's fault. I'll explain things to you."

Jarred said contentedly, "It's settled!"

Rachel looked at him suspiciously. "Dad?" she asked.

"What's wrong? Do you not believe me? Don't think that I'm unaware of what you are thinking! You like

him very much, don't you? Anyway, you two will get married soon."

"Get married?"

Rachel was even more disconcerted as she hurriedly asked, "Dad, what did you say to them?"

"Nothing special. I've just made it clear to them. Eddison is quite outstanding. After finding out that you

gave him the money, he said that he wants to take responsibility for his actions. Now, let's go home."

"I'll go and take a look!"

He instructed sternly, "Stop right there!"

After that, he switched to a tender tone, saying, "I've arranged everything for you. Deal with the

aftermath after your wedding. Go home with me first, then tell your mother about the news. She'll be

very pleased to hear that."

Although Rachel was a little doubtful, she was still rejoicing at the good news.

How could she not be happy when she was getting married to a boy she liked?

It was indubitable that she was overjoyed at the moment.

Therefore, she didn't think too much about the matter. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

"Okay! Thank you, Dad!"

Naomi, on the other hand, received the news about Eddison from Emma.

After caring for Culver attentively for the past few days, he finally asked his assistant, Aaron, to rescind

the order that had posed a great threat to her company.

Hence, Emma made a call to her, telling her that everything was going smoothly, and that she didn't

have to worry about anything.

Emma couldn't restrain her urge to gossip after they had finished talking about the company's matters.

"You know what? I feel like Mr. Olsen and you have chemistry!"

When Naomi heard Emma's words, she laughed her head off.

"Nonsense! It's impossible forthat pervert and I to have chemistry!"

"Why not? I can see it clearly. Although Mr. Olsen is a bit wayward, you are the only one who can deal

with him. For such a man, as long as you speak tenderly to him, he will be nice to you too. You

shouldn't keep calling him a pervert. You two are friends now, so just be gentle with him, and matters

will be solved just as easily!"

Naomi was rather dubious about Emma's idea. Just having the thought of being gentle to Culver was

enough to make her sick.

When she was ready to hang up on the call, Emma suddenly congratulated her.

Naomi was baffled.

"Why did you congratulate me?"

"Congratulations to Eddison for getting married soon! I've heard that he will marry the only daughter of

the Gellert family in Rosaville City. She's a good match for him. Currently, everybody on the Internet is

wishing them a blissful marriage."

That came as a surprise for Naomi. "What? Eddison is going to get married?" she asked.

"Yes! Don't you know that?"

Naomi was gobsmacked.

Only then did Naomi realize that she had been completely engrossed in cajoling Culver into helping her

company in the past few days. That was why she had not had time to pay attention to what was going

on in the outside world. As far as she could remember, Eddison hated the arranged marriage. She

wondered why he was willing to get married all of a sudden.

She pondered, "Could it be that there's anything else I don't know?" Since she had settled her own

issues, she wanted to concentrate on her family's affairs.

After hanging up on the call, she called Eddison right away. However, she gave up eventually because

she couldn't get through.

It seemed that she had to return home herself the next day to have a grasp on the situation.

Culver came to her mind while she was deciding when to go home.

If she were to leave his place directly, he might fly into a rage. Thus, she had to placate him first.

Naomi thought for a while before she went straight out of the room.

It was still early. Culver was in the study.

Naomi walked over and saw that the door of the study was not closed, so she carefully pushed open

the door and walked in.

Culver was sitting in front of the computer. It seemed that he was browsing the Internet quietly.

Naomi mustered up her courage and thought of the tenderness that Emma had mentioned. In her

mind, she told herself that the matter might be resolved if she was gentle enough.

Taking a deep breath, she smiled cutely at him.

She spoke softly, "Culver, I have something to tell you."

As soon as she spoke, she couldn't help but shudder. Even she herself felt that it was disgusting for her

to behave in such a way.

She reflected on her behavior as she thought to herself, "Oh, gross! Nobody will like me when I act in

this way, right?"

She hesitated to change the way she spoke when she suddenly heard a question.

"Who's talking?"

The question came from the computer.

Naomi froze for a moment before she saw Culver opening his mouth to talk to her.

"I'm in a video conference."

Undoubtedly, she felt embarrassed.

She covered her face, turned around and rushed out of Culver's room hastily.

One of Culver's subordinates saw his smiling expression.

Therefore, he began to ask, "Boss, did that voice belong to your girlfriend?"

Upon hearing that question, Culver quirked his eyebrow.

All the people in the video conference became silent, thinking that the person who had asked the

question was screwed.

Culver glanced at the man who had spoken just then and said, "How long have you been at the

company?"

The subordinate was so scared witless that he couldn't help the quiver in his voice.

"Tw-tw-two..."

"You will be given a thirty percent pay raise. Keep up the good work. Finance manager, please jot this

down!"

The man's eyes lit up instantly. He finished his words at last.

"Two months!"

After Culver made an excuse to go out, they began to gossip.

"Did you guys hear the voice just now? It sounded very gentle. Can you tell who it was?"

"I'm guessing she's the daughter from a reputable family, maybe the one who was engaged to Mr.

Olsen previously."

"No, it shouldn't be her. I've been paying attention to her. That's not her voice."

"Don't tell me that she's the one who became the subject of the city tattle a while ago! You know, that

lady who seemed ordinary at first sight."

"It's not her. That lady is very capable of dealing with men. She won't be so gentle."

Naomi ran out and tried hard to restrain her nausea. She was ashamed of herself for acting cute.

Footsteps came from behind. Before Naomi could react, a big hand was already patting Naomi's back.

"What can I do for you?"

Naomi was stunned. Then, she took a few steps forward and turned around awkwardly.

"Some things have occurred in my family. I need to go back tomorrow."

Culver nodded, saying, "Okay!"

"Thank you! By the way, I'm sorry that I disturbed you just now. I didn't know you were in a meeting."

Culver shook his head and replied, "It's alright, I was very happy!"

His reaction puzzled Naomi.

What was there for him to be happy about?

She found that she really couldn't understand his way of thinking.

Just as she was about to leave, Culver added another sentence.

"I'll go with you tomorrow!"
