After he came back, he seemed to have changed into another person. In the past, although work was the most important thing for him, at least he knew how to care about the people around him.
However, that was not the case anymore. He would only deal with work and he would look upset every day. He only cared about things that were related to the Granger family and the company.
He didnât even pay attention to her even when she was pregnant.
He did not seem particularly happy even after the baby was born.
After giving birth, she laid on the bed in pain, hoping that her husband could stand by her side. Even if he refused to say anything, perhaps, he could at least show her a little bit of concern.
However, he did none of that.
He didnât even visit her and he only cared about his company for the whole time.
Although she resented him in her heart, her anger immediately dissipated when she saw the childâs face.
She had made up her mind from then on. Now that they had a child together, he would soon find out that they would be happier as a family.
However, she was wrong again.
He was destined to be a stone-hearted person. He only appeared once when Hank was named, and then never again.
The child grew up over the years. Obviously, he was filled with curiosity. He wanted to share a lot of things with his father. However, she would hear him shouting at the child every single time.
Later, Hank did not dare to visit him anymore.
Fortunately, Hank was warm and he did not inherit the Old Masterâs indifference at all. Only in this way could she find a little comfort in the Granger family.
However, fate did not allow her to live a good life.
Hank grew up and soon took over the company. However, because of his warm character, he fell in love with a woman.
History seemed to always repeat itself. The woman with whom he had fallen in love seemed to be similar to that very woman whom his father had fallen in love with. The Old Master refused to acknowledge her. He tried his best to break them up and to remove that woman from Hankâs life. But finally. Hank was also gone.
Her world fell apart and she lost everything.
She didnât even know how she had made it through those times. She would lie on the bed and looked at the ceiling in a daze every day, with Hankâs voice calling her constantly in her mind.
How could she lose the child whom she had raised?
However, at this time, the Old Master seemed to have heard about the news about Amos and that woman. He didnât care that she was almost at her deathbed, and he insisted on going to Country M to find Amos.
She thought that her marriage was doomed, but she did not expect that the woman was dead already.
However, perhaps it was because of that womanâs death that the Old Master had finally realized her good side. They began to respect each other and even grew closer.
At that time, she thought that perhaps God had finally decided to be kind to her because of her selflessness. However, everything seemed so ironic now.
What on earth had she become? She was busy all her life and turned herself into a dissatisfied wife. She could only be loved by her husband after that woman had died.
Just because she didnât express her thoughts out didnât mean that she didnât mind.
The Old Master knew that he was about to die. He did everything he wanted to with Amos and tried hard to get close to his own son. However, when had he ever even smiled at Hank?
If he had acted like Hankâs father back then, Hank would not have sought love from others and left her.
Bethany Hamilton smiled and burst into tears.
â¦
The Old Masterâs funeral was held a few days later.
The Old Master was the President of Valiant East before he died. He had a high status, so he had many friends.
Bethany was ill ever since she came back from visiting Amos and Eudora. She rarely showed up nowadays. The funeral was fully organized by Amos and Eudora.
The Granger family had held two funerals in a month and this made Eudora feel very uneasy.
Eudora breathed a sigh of relief after everything was done.
When they were on the way back from the graveyard, Amos asked the driver to leave first. He and Eudora went down the mountain together, and neither of them spoke.
When they reached halfway, Amos suddenly turned around and asked.
âDo you think that itâs strange? I suddenly recall the days when he argued with me. Now I feel that even quarreling is a kind of happinessâ¦â
Eudoraâs nose twitched, âAmos.â
Amos shook his head, âHe is so cruel. He must have done it on purpose to make me sad. He deliberately quarreled with me and make me remember him this way. He has succeeded. Now, I really canât forget him.â
Eudora pursed her lips and walked over to hold Amosâ hand.
âLetâs remember him together.â
Amos nodded, âOkay.â
As soon as they arrived home, they saw Steven Granger coming out of the main room. He sighed.
âAmos, restrain your grief.â
Amos said, âHmm, why are you here?â
Steven was stunned by his words, âOh, itâs nothing! Iâm just here to see Aunt Bethany. She seems really sad recently. I heard from the servants that she hasnât eaten anything for the past few days!â
Eudora then said, âGo ahead. Iâll go and see her!â
Amos didnât say anything, but he acquiesced.
Eudora saw the housekeeper packing her things up when she walked into the main room. She was stunned, âThis isâ¦â
There was a hint of reluctance on the housekeeperâs face, âThe Madam said that there is no need for so many servants working here. My grandson is about to be born, so I will go back to my hometown to take care of my grandson!â
Eudora pursed her lips. In fact, she liked the housekeeper very much and she was always very good at doing her job.
However, she was not the Madam of the Granger family, so it was not appropriate for her to say anything. However, when she saw the housekeeperâs eyes turning red, she still couldnât bear it, so she said, âWhy donât you wait for a minute? Iâll talk to the Madam.â
After that, she went upstairs.
However, as soon as she took a step, she saw Bethany making her way downstairs with a sickly look on her face. She looked a little pale, âAre you looking for me?â
Eudora felt as though Bethany had turned into a completely different person. She used to be very kind, but she suddenly became very cold.
Perhaps she was in a bad mood because the Old Master had suddenly passed away.
Eudora nodded and said hurriedly, âI heard from Steven that you are not feeling well. So I came to see you and I happened to see the housekeeper packing her things upâ¦â
Bethany glanced at the housekeeper and immediately became her normal self.
âOh, I arranged it. She has been away from home for so long. Itâs time for her to take care of her own family. We couldnât be so selfish, right?â
Her words had effectively stopped Eudora from saying anything further. Eudora didnât know what else to say.
The housekeeper shook her head and immediately said, âThe Madam is right. Iâm leaving now.â
After that, she shook Eudoraâs hand. When she turned around, Eudora could feel that there seemed to be something in her hand.
