My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 1046

Nelson smiled bitterly and grunted for Richard to continue.

Richard took a deep breath before he continued to speak.

"Your mother left Amos' brother and started dating your father because she thought he was rich.

However, not long after they got together, your father showed her his true colours. Your mother wanted

to run away. It just so happened that Amos' brother was still infatuated with your mother, so after they

were separated for a month, he asked her to elope with him!”

Upon hearing this, Nelson was quite upset.

"So, in the end, my mother ran away with her old lover, but they were caught my father's henchmen.

My father then grew so furious that he killed the Granger family members!"

Richard nodded and said, "That's right!"

"Then, what about my mom? Why did she do that?"

Richard shook his head as he said, "I don't know, but that's what I've found out so far. You

misunderstood Amos all along. Although your mother was sent to prison after her plans were exposed,

the people of the Granger family were still nice to you. In the years that you were gone, they had

indeed spent a lot of time looking for you."

"Stop!"

Nelson stopped Richard from saying anything further. He was so ashamed of himself that he couldn't

listen to him anymore.

He even despised himself for biting the hand that fed him.

He had always despised ungrateful people, but he didn't expect to realize he had become the person

he hated. Unfortunately, he had already committed many misdeeds towards the Granger family.

Was he still able to redeem himself now?

Richard looked at his sullen expression and didn't dare to say anything.

He just stood there quietly, waiting for Nelson to sort his own feelings out.

After a while, Nelson finally stood up. The disappointment and regret on his face had vanished, and

were replaced by a look of courage and determination.

"Thank you for your hard work, Richard. Luckily, you came back. Otherwise, who knows how long I

would be deceived. Now that the truth is revealed, I will not run away any longer. While there is still a

chance to atone for my wrongdoings, I need you to help me with something!"

Richard heaved a sigh of relief. He was worried that Nelson would slump into deep dejection.

Fortunately, he was not trapped by his own depressing thoughts.

"Just tell me what you need me to do. I will help you!"

Nelson said solemnly, "First, contact a reliable person in Bookerfield City to protect my mother.

Although she deceived me, I still hope to ask her the truth face to face. Next, regarding the issue with

Monique: as far as I know, she has gone back to Bookerfield City for some time already. The Granger

family is very powerful. Despite my lack of knowledge about their authority and influence, I know that

she must have taken a serious blow this time. However, she is not the kind of person who will give up

after a failure. Being the vicious woman she is, she will definitely take revenge on the Granger family.

Hence, seek out her whereabouts and stop whatever she is planning to pull next."

Richard pursed his lips. Then, he asked, "Your idea sounds reasonable to me, but I think you should

make it clear to Miss George first!" This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Nelson was astonished, only to hear Richard

continue.

"I know you must be very hesitant right now. However, the truth will come to light sooner or later.

Furthermore, you know what Monique is like. She'll do anything once she's desperate."

Nelson's voice was low and hoarse as he said, "I know."

How could he not know? If he had a choice, he would've never wanted to lie to Naomi in the first place.

However, he couldn't afford to take a gamble.

Richard nodded, "That's great! If that's the case, I'll take my leave!"

After Richard left, Nelson got up and lit a cigarette for himself.

The smoke curled up and soon masked his expression. After finishing smoking, he took another

cigarette and lit it up.

It was not until the whole ashtray was filled with cigarette ashes that he stopped smoking.

His mobile phone rang once, indicating that he had received a message. Naomi had sent him a

somewhat playful voice message that said, "You seem to be very busy tonight since you haven't sent

me any messages. But it's ok, I'll forgive you. Take good care of yourself, and remember to eat well

even if you are busy. Good night!"

Hearing her voice, he couldn't help but smile. Then, he recalled Richard's words.

He had to tell her the truth.

"Naomi..."

He replied with a message, and Naomi soon sent him a confused cat emoji with question marks on top

of its head.

He wanted to tell her everything, but the words were stuck in his throat.

"It's nothing!"

After sending it out, he added another line that said, "I love you!"

Naomi smiled and replied, "I love you too! I'll go to bed first. I have to go to the hospital tomorrow to

visit Emma."

Nelson replied, "Okay!" Meanwhile, he was thinking about Monique, who had used him as her pawn.

Maybe it would be a better idea to explain things to Naomi after making amends by dealing with

Monique first?

At the same time, Monique had already arrived in Rosaville City several days ago.

This time round, she had learned to behave herself. After being taught a lesson by Amos, she didn't

dare to act rashly anymore.

After hiding and observing the situation for a few days, she finally found a breakthrough point.

"Have you brought that woman, Carol Lance, here?"

"Yes, we have," Her subordinates reported.

As they were talking, two men swiftly brought Carol in. She was not a weak woman and kept cursing all

along the way.

"What on earth are you doing? What are you going to do by bringing me here? Here, Rosaville City is

ruled by law. Be careful, or I'll sue you!"

Monique frowned. She always hated feisty women like Carol!

However, at the thought of what she was going to do next, she held back her hatred and flashed a

smile at Carol.

"Madam Lance, right? Hello, I'm Monique Chilton. I was the one who asked them to invite you here."

Carol snorted, "Is this an invitation? It seems more like you are asking them to kidnap me. I don't recall

bearing any bad blood with you, so why did you kidnap me? I am not a rich person either."

Monique laughed, "It's a misunderstanding!" Then, she turned her head and glared at Jamie.

"Oh look, you guys must have frightened Madam Lance here! Hurry and pour a cup of tea for her.

Madam Lance, please follow me here and make yourself at home."

There was really a sea change in her attitude.

Carol was a straightforward person and paid no attention to it. Instead, she asked directly.

"What do you want? Just tell me! Don't put on a nice act with me, I'm not someone close to you."

Monique was embarrassed as Carol was impervious to her blandishments.

"It's not a big deal. It's about your brother, Jonathan Lance. I'm sure you must be aware?"

Her words had confounded Carol, who then asked, "You know my brother?"

Monique nodded and explained, "Yes! He owed me something, and I'm also aware that he has been

caught and jailed. I feel very sorry for him. However, he has to repay what he has owed, right?"

Carol frowned and asked, "What did he owe you?"
