Chapter 1049


    Only then did Naomi find out that Nelson had sent her a message in the morning when she was at the


    hospital. She had overlooked it and forgot to reply to him.


    She was a little embarrassed, and quickly apologized softly.


    "Sorry, I forgot."


    Nelsonforted her, "Silly girl, I don''t want your apology. I was just afraid that something bad


    happened to you since you weren''t replying."


    Naomi shook her head subconsciously and denied it, "I''m fine!"


    "Really? Then let''s go to sleep! Staying upte is not good for your health."


    Naomi nodded. However, she couldn''t help but bring up the court trial at the thought of attending it the


    very next day.


    "Actually, there''s something going on."


    Nelson was heard chuckling as he asked, "Is it about the court trial?"


    Naomi asked in surprise, "How did you know it?"


    "How could I not know? I know everything about you. Don''t worry, it will be alright! I''ll be there for


    you tomorrow."


    Naomi knew that it was her own business, and Nelson''s presence there would probably not affect the


    results of the trial in any way.


    Nevertheless, she was still delighted when he said that he would be there for her.


    A whileter, she felt sleepy. Hence, she rubbed her eyes and said, "Good night then!"


    "Okay, go to sleep!"


    Naomi asked curiously, "Aren''t you hanging up?"


    "No! I want to wait until you fall asleep first."


    It was amon thing between infatuated couples. Naomi used to hear it from Emma, who loved to


    gossip about the foolish things she did with her boyfriend.


    They would chat from night till dawn and fall asleep together.


    At that time, Naomi was so flummoxed that she couldn''t understand it at all.


    Now that she had experienced it herself, she finally knew the feeling of being in love.


    People could truly be madly in love.


    Naomi ced her phone next to her pillow before closing her eyes and falling asleep in peace.


    At the same time, Nelson still couldn''t rest easy.


    He was studying some information for the case the next day while listening to Naomi''s subtle breathing


    through the phone. It was a very heartwarming moment for him.


    It was not until her breathing gradually became smooth and steady that he hung up.


    Then, he dialed another phone number.


    "Richard, have you made the necessary preparations as ording to our previous ns?"


    Richard answered, "Everything is ready. Monique found someone to act as a witness, but we have our


    trump card too. I have contacted Monique''s subordinate, who was fired a few days ago. He can testify


    for us when the timees."


    "Well done!"


    After a short pause, Nelson asked again.


    "How''s my mom doing?"


    "I''ve hidden her in a safe ce, and I''m sure Monique can''t find her. Don''t worry, I''ve also arranged for


    someone to stay there and keep an eye on the surroundings. We will be notified of the situation from


    time to time."

    Nelson groaned, "Thank you for your hard work! Rest early, there will be a hard battle for us tomorrow."


    Nelson had never been the type to not return a favour, especially after realizing how Monique used


    him. He wasn''t going down without a fight.


    He would show no mercy this time!


    Meanwhile, Eudora couldn''t sleep either.


    She was very worried. Although Amos tried to make the problem sound as minor as he could, she was


    nheless still worried.


    "How could you agree to let Naomi go alone? She''s so guileless. What if something happens at the


    scene?"


    Amos shook his head andforted her, "It''ll be fine! Besides, children have to learn how to deal with


    their own issues. Wasn''t that something you said?"


    Eudora still refused toply, "Indeed, it was what I said before, but the situation is different now. She


    was just injured a few days ago."


    "Why don''t you have any faith in our daughter?"


    Eudora fell silent for a moment before saying, "It''s not that I don''t have faith in her. It''s just that I can''t


    help worrying. I used to hate my parents for interfering in our lives back then. Now, I am beginning to


    understand them. Furthermore, I have be just like my father. Even if I believe in her, I still can''t


    help feeling worried."


    Amos reached out and pulled her into his arms, saying, "I understand your feelings. However, we


    should let Naomi face it once and deal with it by herself. We can''t apany her for the rest of our


    lives. In the end, she is going to have to live on her own. It''s always better to practice and be prepared


    than to be at a loss when the timees."


    Eudora finally agreed with him and sighed, "Okay, I get it."


    "Great! Get some rest. If you don''t want to be at home alone tomorrow, I''ll stay with you."


    Eudora pursed her lips and asked, "Aren''t you going to thepany tomorrow?"


    "There''s nothing particrly serious. It will be fine even if I don''t go."


    Eudora couldn''t help rolling her eyes at him, "I''ve read everything on the news. Everyone''s saying how


    I''m seducing you and causing you to neglect your work in thepany."


    Amos retorted, "Who dares say something like that? It''s my own fault for not managing thepany


    well. It has nothing to do with you."


    "Forget it. I''d better do some gardening at home. You should head to thepany, I''ll have Cindy to


    keep mepany."


    Even though Amos had told Eudora not to be worried, she still couldn''t fall asleep. As a result, she got


    up early in the morning to prepare breakfast for Naomi.


    Thinking that there would be a tough battle for Naomi that day, she tried to prepare a nutritious


    breakfast for her.


    There were eggs, almond milk, bread, hash browns and pancakes. Eudora hoped that after getting a


    full stomach, Naomi could deal with the problem well.


    After she prepared everything, she went upstairs to wake Naomi.


    Before she knocked on the door, Naomi came out in high spirits.


    "Mom, good morning."


    Eudora was taken aback and asked, "You''re ready?"


    "That''s right! Do I look good?"


    Naomi was wearing a white blouse, a ck pencil skirt and a matching ck zer. She looked quite


    charismatic and ready for a fight. Initially, Eudora thought that Naomi would be having butterflies in her


    stomach before attending the court trial for the first time.


    However, to her surprise, Naomi seemed extremely confident.


    Eudora felt much more at ease in an instant.


    "Since you''re ready, let''s go downstairs for breakfast. I''ve prepared a hearty breakfast for you. Make


    sure you are full before you leave."


    Naomi nodded and said, "Okay!" After following behind Eudora for some time, Naomi secretly turned


    around and gestured a sign of assurance to Amos, who was hiding in the corridor.


    At the dining room, Eudora kept adding food onto Naomi''s te.


    "Eat some more, it''s still early."


    Naomi rubbed her round belly. When she saw Amosing down, she felt as if her saviour had


    arrived.


    She took the opportunity to seek his help while her mother was busy serving the dishes.


    "Dad, please deal with Mom. I''ve helped you put her at ease, so shouldn''t you help me finish all the


    food on the table?"


    Amos nodded and said, "You can go. I''ll handle it!"


    "Thank you, Dad!" After that, she hurriedly stood up, grabbed her bag, and walked out. Just then, Amos


    suddenly called out softly from behind her.


    "Good luck!"


    Naomi turned back and asked, "Dad, what did you say?"


    Amos felt a little embarrassed. The men of the Granger family had never been good at expressing their


    feelings.


    "Nothing!"


    Naomi beamed at him andughed, "I heard it though. Thank you, Dad!"


    It was not until she reached the door and was about to leave that she heard Amos telling Eudora, "She


    just left, so I''ll eat it."


    "Seriously, she''s full already, so don''t worry!"


    "You keep worrying about her. What about me?"


    Naomi was speechless.


    It was hrious for Amos to actually be jealous of his own child.
