My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 1142

Indeed, Naomi was moved at that moment.

She didn't expect Culver to notice her dejection.

However, the feeling only lasted for a brief moment.

She quickly calmed herself down.

"No! It's just that I can't help sniffing during a windy day. The cold temperature always gives me a runny

nose. It's not a big deal."

Culver thought for a while before he said, "I don't like liars."

Naomi was at a loss for words.

"If you don't tell me, I'll go to your house by myself. I'm capable of doing that, and you know it."

Naomi got nervous at once. "No!"

Culver always behaved perversely. If he really came to Naomi's house, he would certainly cook up a

fuss.

"Fine, you win. I did cry just now, but it's because I was helping my mother to slice onions. You get it

right? Onions are ingredients that will stimulate people's eyes to produce tears."

Culver paused again for a few seconds before saying, "Don't you have a chef in your house? I'll ask

Aaron to-"

"It's okay. My family has never gotten used to hiring chefs. We feel happy to cook on our own!"

"Poor girl!" grumbled Culver, but he sounded glad.

Naomi didn't argue with him as she was not in the mood to quarrel with him at the moment. The two of

them remained silent for a few more seconds before Culver spoke again.

"When are you coming back?"

Naomi was bewildered. She replied, "Haven't I just left? I probably won't be back that quickly! I'll have

to wait until my brother's wedding is over."

For some reason, those words annoyed Culver as he replied, "I see..."

Naomi was rendered speechless.

The hint of disapproval in his voice really vexed her.

Naomi didn't want to talk to him anymore, therefore she ended their conversation.

"I have something to do here. Bye!"

After that, she hung up on the call directly without waiting for Culver's reply.

Culver looked at his phone with displeasure, which displayed that the call had ended.

"D*mn it! If it weren't for the fact that you were back at your home..."

Putting down the phone, he took two steps forward and looked at the empty room. Then, he couldn't

help muttering, "Did she really just leave?" He felt that a long time had passed since Naomi left.

A marriage between two wealthy and powerful families caught the attention of the people in Rosaville

City. What was more, one of the families was actually the Granger family who owned Valiant East.

Everyone in Rosaville City was well aware that Valiant East was the leading company in the city for

decades. Moreover, it had been thriving all the while.

There had been speculation in the circle of wealthy families that the Granger family would not need a

marriage of state since they were out of every other families' league.

Unexpectedly, they still formed a diplomatic marriage with the Gellert family in the end.

The marriage became a piece of big news in the entertainment circle. Nonetheless, the reporters did

not dare to write wild articles about it.

It was because they were under the watchful eye of the Granger family. Hence, they wrote nothing but

wishes for the two families.

The two families kept low profiles, and they didn't hold the wedding opulently as the rumors said. They

simply set a time and held the wedding in Rosaville Hotel!

Not many guests had been invited to the banquet on the day of the wedding.

Only their close relatives and friends were present. A group of reporters and paparazzi showed up and

gathered around the Granger Mansion. However, their attempts of sending drones over the mansion in

order to pry into the wedding scene were futile as the drones were brought down instantly by the

bodyguards of the Granger family.

In contrast to the fierce competition between the bodyguards and the reporters, the situation inside the

mansion was much more lively.

Even though the wedding was not too sumptuous, everyone in there still had a fun time, joking with

each other and having a hearty meal.

At first, Rachel was worried that Eddison had married her merely due to Jarred's coercion.

However, at the moment, it seemed that she had worried too much. They only met a few times during

the marriage preparation but Eddison seemed to be composed.

They could talk normally whenever they met despite her feeling a little shy, thus she didn't think much

about it.

Rachel's mother, Bianca felt much relieved upon seeing her expression.

"After the wedding, remember to register your marriage. I found a tarot card master and she said that

it'll bring you good luck if you register tomorrow at 10:00 a.m.! You two must go on time!"

"Don't believe in such things!"

Jarred commented with a smile.

Actually, he agreed with Bianca despite saying so.

Eudora nodded and shot a glance at Eddison, who seemed preoccupied.

Only then did Eddison come to his senses and say, "Okay!" Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

There was someone else who was staring at him. It was Naomi. Ever since she had that conversation

with Eddison on that day, she had been thinking that he would eventually ask for her help after he had

made up his mind.

She was surprised that he had really decided to marry Rachel.

When he got up from his seat and went to the bathroom, she quickly followed him.

"Are you sure that you don't need my help?"

"Yes, I'm sure."

Then, she said, "You are my little brother. Since this is your choice, of course, I'll support you! Now that

you've resolved to bear the responsibility, I hope you will be nice to Rachel. She is a good girl, so don't

let her down!"

He fell silent for a while before he answered, "Okay!"

"Good!"

Naomi nodded contentedly, walked over and patted him on the shoulder.

"As your sister, I'm glad to see that you've grown up!"

After that, she turned around and went out.

However, he suddenly stopped her.

"Naomi, I am sorry for what I said on that day."

Her phone rang as she came out.

She smiled and picked it up. The person on the other end said, "Are you Miss Naomi? We're from

Rosaville Prison. Are you free tomorrow morning? Can you come and visit—"

"I don't have the time!"

Naomi didn't wait for the person on the other end of the line to finish talking. She hung up on the call

immediately.

She took a deep breath. She had wanted to go back to her seat, but she was flustered by the sudden

call.

A lot of events from the past that she thought she had already forgotten about came to her mind.

She was no longer in the mood to enjoy the banquet, so she left early.

Eddison and Rachel stayed at the Granger Mansion.

As the heir of the next generation of the Granger family, Eddison had to spend his wedding night there.

His wedding night was not as dramatic as people would imagine. On the contrary, it was the

opposite..

Rachel sat on the large bed, pinching her wedding gown tightly with her fingers.

The gown was also part of the Granger family's traditions.

Rachel blushed at the thought of being together with the person she liked. She lowered her head in

shyness.

As Eddison was approaching her, her heartbeat accelerated.

There was an aura of masculinity about him, which engulfed her. She saw his big hands holding her

arms.

She slowly closed her eyes, and she could feel that his body was moving closer to hers.
