Chapter 1119


    Eddison was stunned for a moment, and then he frowned with a disgusted expression.


    Unexpectedly, that innocent- looking woman hadined about his behavior behind his back.


    Sure enough, he should not have trusted Rachel!


    He became impatient and said, "She is an adult, and it was still daytime. Why did I have to send her


    back? I had something else to do!"


    "Keep your mouth shut!"


    Amos said coldly, "There''s no one as irresponsible as you in the Granger family! You''d better apologize


    to Rachel immediately! Otherwise, you''re not allowed to enter the gates of the Granger family!"


    "I won''t do it!" Eddison stiffened his neck and added, "I didn''t do anything wrong! Why should I


    apologize?"


    "Fine! You''re not going to apologize? Then, don''t regret it!"


    Eddison went straight to his room upstairs. "I won''t regret it. There''s no way that will happen!" he


    thought.


    When Eudora saw them arguing so loudly, she wanted to chase after Eddison. However, Amos


    stopped her and said, "Don''t go! If I don''t teach this kid a lesson, he will never learn!"


    Eudora sighed. "Is Miss Gellert alright?" she asked out of concern.


    "How could she be alright? She took a taxi home and met with a kidnapper. I heard that she was


    terrified!"


    "Let me go and take a look!" Eudora''s mind was upied with Rachel''s matter, and she did not look for


    Eddison again.


    After Eddison went upstairs, he immediately took out his bank card and started his operation.


    Although their family did not use money unnecessarily, Amos and Eudora treated them very well. Both


    he and Naomi had their own savings ounts.


    However, since Naomi had to rely on herself at the moment, therefore she had given her money back


    to Eudora. It was the first time in Eddison''s life to use his own savings.


    Eddison logged into his ount and entered the password as he wanted to transfer the money. In the


    end, he saw that his ount bnce had less than four digits.


    He thought that he had seen the amount wrongly. He logged in again, but the bnce still remained


    the same!


    At the same time, he also received a text message from the bank.


    He was told that his ount had been terminated!


    Only then did Eddison understand the meaning behind Amos'' words just then.


    Obviously, he felt angry in his heart, but his self-esteem had taken an even bigger blow.


    It was absolutely impossible for him to apologize to his father at such a moment, especially when he


    was forced to do so in such a way.


    He thought about that, stood up and went downstairs again.


    Eudora had just prepared some gifts and was going to visit Rachel. When she saw Eddisoning


    down the stairs, she thought that he had figured things out.


    "You''re just in time, so why don''t youe with me to visit Rachel?"


    Eddison''s voice became louder as he said, "Sheined about me behind my back, so why should


    I go and visit her? I''m not going!"


    After that, he rushed out of the door.


    Eudora was stunned for a moment. When she was about to chase after him again, Eddison was


    already far away.


    She could only sigh. Upon seeing the scene, Naomi said, "Mom, I''ll go with you!"

    "Alright!" Eudora nodded.


    The Gellert family was furious at the fact that their precious daughter, Rachel, had been frightened to


    death because of Eddison''s negligence.


    Originally, they had nned for a decent arranged marriage, but Rachel''s parents wanted to give up at


    the moment.


    Although they did not instantly drive Eudora away, they were not too polite when they spoke to her as


    well.


    "The Gellert family is not a match for the Granger family. Mrs. Granger, you''d better go back!"


    Eudora tried to put in a good word for Eddison. After all, it was Eddison''s fault and she needed to


    express their sincerest apologies.


    Unfortunately, the Gellert family loved Rachel a lot and would not let Eudora enter to visit her.


    In the end, Rachel was informed of such a matter and she came down from upstairs.


    "Mom, Dad, I''m fine. Don''t be like this!"


    Rachel''s mother, Bianca, hurriedly looked at her daughter and asked, "Why did youe down?


    Didn''t I tell you to rest?" "I''m fine! Besides, it''s was me who asked Eddison to go back first! It''s not that


    he didn''t want to send me home. Don''t me him!"


    Bianca sighed helplessly, saying, "This silly girl!"


    It was the first time that Eudora had seen Rachel in such close distance. She finally understood why


    Amos had chosen Rachel as Eddison''s fiancee.


    Although Eddison had been sensible since he was a child, there was still a bit of a rebellious spirit in


    his heart, which was simr to his grandfather''s.


    At first nce, Rachel looked like a well-educated and reasonable girl, especially as she had been well


    protected by her family. She was as pure as a white rabbit.


    If Eddison and Rachel were to get together, they wouldplement each other in terms of personality.


    She was a good choice.


    Just as Eudora thought about that, Rachel walked over to her quickly and smiled politely at Eudora.


    "Are you Mrs. Granger? You came all the way here to visit me? I''m really alright!"


    It seemed that Rachel had been given quite a fright and her lips were still pale. However, there was still


    a smile on her face that told her that she was fine. She was a kind girl.


    Eudora''s fondness for her grew a little more. She said, "It''s Eddison''s fault. I''ll teach him a lesson!"


    When Rachel''s parents saw that Eudora and Rachel were both fine, they did not make things difficult


    for Eudora anymore. In the end, they allowed Eudora to sit inside.


    After Eudora left the Gellert family house, the first thing Eudora did was to go upstairs to look for


    Eddison.


    However, she did not see him.


    She asked Cindy about his whereabouts but Cindy said that he had not returned since he had left his


    room.


    Eudora was anxious as she said, "Where could he have gone? Could it be that he went back to


    school?"


    Naomi saw that Eudora was nervous, therefore she volunteered to search for Eddison.


    At the moment, Eddison was at Christopher''s ce.


    Christopher was helping his wife to cook, while


    Eddison was tailing him from behind.


    "Uncle Christopher, I don''t need much. I can help you with yourpany''s administrative matters, as


    long as you give me the money in advance."


    Christopher did not stop cooking.


    He asked Eddison curiously, "You don''t need to go to school?"


    Christopher became even more curious.


    "Why are you so short of money suddenly? Where''s the savings that your father gave you?"


    "I..." Eddison grunted before saying, "I don''t want to rely on my family anymore. I want to rely on


    myself!"


    "That''s great!" Christopher smiled and said, "How much do you want?"


    He thought that Eddison was acting on an impulse and wanted to tease him. Therefore, he took the


    opportunity to ask him.


    Eddison showed five of his fingers and smiled.


    "Fifty thousand? No problem, ask your Auntie Tina to give it to you. I''m busy now!"


    Eddison shook his head and said, "500,000 dors!"


    His family had arranged all his meals, clothing, residence, and transportation for him. His daily


    expenses were almost the same as that of an average overseas students.


    "What happened to you? Did you get into any trouble?" Christopher asked as he stopped cooking.
