Chapter 1122
At that moment, Eddison was distributing leaflets.
However, unlike an ordinary child from a rich family, he did not have the feeling of defeat around him.
Since they were young, their parents had taken him and Naomi to experience various occupations.
Moreover, Eudora had told him that no occupation was shameful.
He was just a little anxious. The job was easy, but it was slow to earn money. He had no idea when he
could earn his half a million dollars.
He was anxious as he thought about it. As a result, he did not even dare to rest in the afternoon. He
only thought about distributing more leaflets.
Before Rachel could open her mouth, a leaflet was handed over to her.
"You're welcome to visit our store!"
Rachel's heart jolted upon seeing him. The sun was so bright that Eddison's face was flushed red from
the heat, and sweat was pouring down from his body.
He wore a custom-made uniform from the shop, but the quality was not too good.
At that moment, his uniform was sticking to his body due to his sweat.
Rachel had no idea why, but her heart ached for him.
"Eddison..."
Eddison was stunned. When he looked up, he saw Rachel's watery eyes. He was stunned for a
moment, and then he came to his senses and said in an unfriendly tone.
He said in an unfriendly tone, "Are you stalking me?"
"No!" Rachel hurriedly shook her head and explained, "I came searching for you only because I heard
that you left home! Eddison, why didn't you talk to your family? You'd better go back."
Eddison was extremely angry the moment he heard Rachel talking about his family.
However, he tried his best to soften his tone.
"That's my own business. You don't have to worry about me. Miss Gellert, if you feel guilty, then please
don't do things that will harm yourself and others next time!"
Rachel was not stupid and she figured out everything in an instant.
"Because of me?"
"Heh...You know what you've done."
Yvonne could not stand it anymore and said, "What do you mean by that? Don't think that others need
to please you just because you are goodlooking. Rachel has treated you well! She had been searching
for you since you disappeared, and she even took a day off from work! Don't be so ungrateful!"
Eddison was still as cold as ever, brimming with a sense of alienation.
"Then, should I thank Miss Gellert for that? Please go away and don't interfere with my job!"
After that, he continued to distribute the leaflets.
Subconsciously, Rachel tried to catch up with him, but was pulled away by Yvonne.
"That's enough, you fool. You told me that you fell in love at first sight, yet you like such a rude person?
He's not worth it! Let's go!"
"Yvonne..." Rachel struggled as she said, "I'm afraid that there has been a misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding my a*s! Look at how arrogant he is. Let's go!"
Yvonne dragged Rachel away. Of course, according to her personality, she would not forget to throw in
some ruthless remarks.
"You're Eddison, right? Listen carefully! We're walking away, not because you look down on Rachel, but
because she doesn't want you anymore!"
Of course, Eddison did not even stop in his tracks and he continued to distribute the leaflets.
Yvonne was so strong that she dragged Rachel away until Eddison could no longer see them.
"Okay! I've taken care of that boy. Come on, I'll take you out for a celebration! I promise that you'll
forget about your worries immediately!"
Rachel glanced at Yvonne.
"Sorry, but I have no troubles at all!"
"Is that so? Then, why do you look so sad and depressed?"
"Screw you!" Rachel could not help but be amused by her. She said, "Don't tease me. I still have things
to do. I'm going back to the company!"
"You're going to the company, again? You're too absorbed in your work!" Yvonne looked unhappy. She
added, "Now, I suddenly feel that Eddison is not that bad. At least he can divert your attention from
work!"
As they talked, Yvonne's phone rang. Her friend was asking her out for an outing.
"Alright, go. I don't need you to keep me company anymore!" Rachel said in a hurry.
Only then did Yvonne agree to the invitation. Then, she turned around and said to Rachel, "Okay, then
I'll get going now! I'll hail a cab for you!"
"There's no need for that. I'll call my driver from home!"
Yvonne thought that it was alright. After all, safety came first. Then, she left.
After Yvonne left, Rachel did not go to her company, but returned to the place where Eddison had
stood. She watched Eddison distributing leaflets from afar. She did not dare to approach him, but only
watched him from far.
It was already noon when Naomi woke up the next day.
It was dark in the room. If she had not seen the clock on the wall, she would have thought that it was
still nighttime!
She thought about Eddison, and while Culver was still asleep, she thought about how to get rid of the
lock on her hand.
However, before she could move, she heard a deep and charismatic man's voice.
"Don't waste your time! The lock has been custom-made specially to deal with you!"
Culver was wearing a smug expression, and she would love to hit him at that moment.
Naomi could not help rolling her eyes. "So, should I thank you instead?" she asked.
"You're welcome!"
After Culver finished speaking, he undid Naomi's chain and said, "Let's go wash up together!"
She gritted her teeth and said, "I won't go! Hit me if you dare!"
Upon hearing her words, Culver turned around and looked at her meaningfully.
He was not angry at all. On the contrary, his face was filled with concern.
Culver looked quite handsome, especially at the moment when he just woke up. There were a few
strands of hair standing on his head, making him look like a little puppy.
His big eyes were filled with concern as he looked at her.
"That won't do! You're not being obedient!"
Naomi's heart skipped a beat, and she took a deep breath as she turned her head away.
"Why do you care? Don't think that I will compromise with you just because you used such tender
words as an attack against me! That won't work!"
Culver's eyebrows twitched. "Tender words?
Attack?" he repeated.
Naomi was rendered speechless.
Could he just screw off?
After she struggled for a while, she still obeyed his orders and got up to wash up.
After Naomi washed up, she began to negotiate with Culver, "I really need to go out. My brother ran
away from home. I have to go out and look for him. What if something happens to him?"
Culver frowned as he said, "Are you lying to me again? This is the third time you've done so. Do you
think I'll believe you?"
Naomi felt angry and anxious, therefore she blurted all those words out.
However, she had no idea that her words had touched a sore spot in Culver's heart.
His face suddenly turned ugly as he retorted, "Trust? Feelings? What's that? The strong only need to
conquer, and they don't need to have any feelings! Those are for the weak!" NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
