Chapter 1212: Chapter 1212 The Revelation About Naomi’s Identity

After that, Naomi went straight back to the ward without waiting for Culver to answer her.

She pushed open the door, only to find that Emma and Nelson were behind it. Apparently, they were peeking just then.

Naomi seemed to have known what they were doing. She calmly pushed Nelson back to the sickbed.

“Lie down!”

Then, she began to speak in an apathetic tone.

“I’ve just asked the doctor, and he told me that you’ll be discharged tomorrow. Besides, I have already entrusted the company to the bank. They will evaluate it and calculate the final amount that needs to be compensated, then I will transfer the money directly later. I’ve also got the tickets to return to Rosaville City. We’ll go back tomorrow!”

Nelson was astounded, “We’re going back all of a sudden?”

“I’ve just called Uncle Clint to ask about your illness. He says that he has contacted many foreign and local experts. All of them will arrive at Rosaville City tomorrow too. After all, it’s more convenient to treat your illness in our hometown.”

“What? There’s no need to treat my illness. I-”

“Shut up! It’s fine if you don’t want to, but I’ll still do so myself. You’ll be here alone!”

Nelson was rendered speechless.

He exchanged a look with Emma, mouthing, “What’s happening?”

Emma shook her head, “I don’t know either.”

…

Outside the ward, Culver received a call from Aaron.

“President, bad news! After you left the company, the stock price, which had already stabilized, suddenly dropped again. Moreover, public opinion has turned against us. What should we do?”

“Aren’t the two Chairmen still there?”

“Mr. Norman has fallen sick out of rage whereas Madam Marilyn is in a panic. You’d better come back as soon as possible!”

Culver looked at the ward before he let out a deep breath.

Then, he said, “I won’t go back. Listen to me, do as I say…”

Aaron wrote down all of his orders. After hanging up on the call, Norman, who was supposed to be sick, and Marilyn, who claimed to be in a panic, both came over.

“How is it? Is he coming back?”

Shaking his head, Aaron said, “No, but he has told me what to do. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to follow his instructions to tackle the affairs.”

Marilyn said angrily, “He has never been so disobedient. He must have been bewitched by that woman! I-”

“Quit complaining! You’re giving me a headache. Why don’t we just let Culver marry her? In fact, with the wealth and status that we possess, we don’t necessarily need a marriage of state.”

“What?! Allowing Culver to marry her would mean that we have admitted defeat! She’ll ask for more once she’s a part of the Olsen family. We’ll be ruined by her!”

Norman furrowed his brows as he said, “Your words make sense, but what should we do now? The company was handed over to him many years ago. Now, the employees won’t listen to me anymore. Our company will be in ruins this time.”

Marilyn gnashed her teeth and said, “I will go and meet that woman tomorrow morning. I must drive her out of Greene City!”

…

In the morning of the next day, as soon as Naomi arrived at the entrance of the hospital, she saw Marilyn waiting for her.

She told Emma, “Go in first.”

Since they were in a public space, Marilyn was still showing some courtesy.

“Let’s talk in my car!”

Naomi looked at her watch as she insisted, “No, we’ll talk right here!”

Although Marilyn was extremely unhappy, she still handed over a suitcase to Naomi.

“This is one million dollars. Leave Greene City and don’t ever come back!”

Naomi glanced at the black suitcase and looked away.

“I don’t need that.”

Then, Marilyn reproached in a low voice, “Is this too little for you? Naomi, don’t go too far! This amount is definitely substantial for a poor person like you. With this money, you don’t have to worry about food and clothing no matter where you go.”

Naomi took a deep breath.

She thought that everyone from the rich and powerful families were as enlightened as her family members, and that their mothers were as lovely as hers. Perhaps it was because she had been spending so much time with her parents since she was a child.

However, Culver’s mother made her realize that she had been too idealistic. It turned out that those so-called noble ladies from many wealthy families could be termagants too.

“I said there’s no need for that!” Naomi was quite impatient. If it wasn’t for the fact that Marilyn was Culver’s mother, Naomi would have already left.

“Naomi, don’t force me to resort to the carrot and stick approach with you! I know that you refuse to take my money because you want to get more, and you’re hoping to marry Culver, am I right? You’re fantasizing about leading a rich life in the Olsen family, aren’t you? Well, over my dead body!”

“Enough!” Naomi gritted her teeth in anger.

“First, I said there’s no need for the money, and I meant it.”

“Second, I’ve never said that I want to marry Culver. Don’t flatter yourself!”

“Third-”

Naomi paused abruptly. She hadn’t thought of the third point yet.

Unexpectedly, a loud voice could be heard just in time, saying, “Third, we, the Granger family, have plenty of money. We don’t need any from other people.”

To Naomi’s surprise, Clint, Harley and Christopher had all arrived.

“Are you okay?” Harley sized Naomi up and said, “Your parents are still unaware of the situation here, so I came with Clint.”

“Uncle Harley, Uncle Clint and Uncle Christopher, you all are here! Didn’t we agree that I’d go back by myself?”

“Do you still want to conceal such a big matter from us? If we hadn’t come, some idiot would think that Tyler Holt’s granddaughter is someone to be trifled with.”

Their presence confounded Marilyn.

“Who are you? I’m talking to her. Why are you interrupting us all of a sudden?”

“You must be Culver’s mother. As far as I can recall, when the Holt family was still here many years ago, the Olsen family was only ranked third. Now that you’ve achieved some accomplishments, you’re starting to get cocky, aren’t you?”

Marilyn thought about Tyler Holt, who had just been mentioned by them, and she couldn’t help but be a little suspicious.

“What’s your relationship with Tyler Holt?”

“The one who stands in front of you is Mr. Holt’s granddaughter, Miss Naomi!”

Marilyn rejoined righteously, “Nonsense! Mr. Holt’s daughter was married to the head of the Granger family in Rosaville City, and Naomi’s last name is George!”

Harley stroked his chin while saying, “For your information, Mr. Holt’s daughter has the last name George, too.”

Marilyn was startled. It seemed that Mr. Holt’s daughter indeed had the last name George. However, she wouldn’t believe him so easily.

“Do you have any evidence? How dare you bluff me!”

“It’s okay, you will believe me soon.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Marilyn received a phone call from Norman. He said, “I’ve been notified that there will be a few representatives of the Granger family coming to Greene City today. They hope that we will be there to greet them. I’ve sent their photos to you. You should quickly print them out and show them to all the servants. Make sure they don’t make any mistakes when our guests come.”

Marilyn immediately checked the photos sent by Norman.

The people shown in the photos turned out to be the ones in front of her, including Naomi.

Doubtlessly, she had gotten herself into serious trouble.

The Olsen family was indeed the most powerful family in Greene City. However, Tyler’s influence was still present, and even the Granger family and the Gellert family were working together.

Such a situation filled her with horror.

She stammered, “You, you-“
