Chapter 1214 She Had Made Her Choice
“I don’t like her anymore! If you want me to go back to the Olsen Group, please stop bugging me with your words!”
After saying that, Culver made a call to Aaron.
“Mobilize the tracking device that I asked you to create for Nelson, and find out where he has gone! ”
“Yes, Sir!” After getting a reply from Aaron, Culver made another phone call to the company.
“Call the press and make an appointment for a press conference at three o’clock in the afternoon. I’ll explain everything about this matter!”
“For the stock market, just follow my orders.”
Marilyn looked at Culver, composed as ever, and suddenly felt a sense of unfamiliarity.
Although he was the same person he had always been, it had been sometime since she felt this way.
He had returned to his former self.
…
Nelson sat on the railing along the river as he stared at the surface of the water in a daze.
He did not even turn his head when he heard footsteps behind him.
“Culver, you’re here!”
Culver was not surprised that Nelson knew that it was him. He went straight over and sat down beside him.
Then, the two of them spoke at the same time.
“I was waiting for you.”
“You were waiting for me.”
The next second, the two of them smiled.
Culver lowered his head and lit a cigarette for himself.
“Tell me, why were you waiting for me here?”
Nelson sneered, “You obviously know why! Of course, I’ve been waiting for you to take Naomi away from me!”
Culver glanced at him and smiled.
“Are you kidding me?”
“Do I look like I’m joking?”
“If that’s the case, then why did you try to compete with me in the beginning?” Culver blew a puff of smoke. The smoke lingered in the air, making it hard for others to see his eyes.
“I wanted to see whether you were sincere.”
Nelson smiled.
Culver laughed, “Who do you think you are? A deity?”
Nelson replied seriously, “I’m being serious! I won’t be here for long. This is probably my retribution for doing something wrong! Why do you think I tried my best to get out of the prison early? It’s because I want to see Naomi happy before I leave this world. I’ll only be able to rest assured knowing that she’ll be with someone who truly loves her.”
Culver frowned as he asked, “Are you serious?”
“I’m not joking with you about my own life. After getting to know you for some time, I can say that you are someone who can make Naomi happy. So, please take her away from me. I won’t retaliate.”
Culver was astonished.
Then, he regained his composure.
“So what? Although you are sick, she still loves you more. You have no reason to give up on yourself.”
“Culver, how can that be called love? She’s obviously doing all this because she pities me!”
“No, you don’t know her. She went looking for the best doctors for you and even asked her family for help to bring you back. She treats you differently! I advise you to go back to the hospital and don’t let her down!”
After saying that, Culver stood up and prepared to leave.
Nelson was extremely enraged.
“Culver, how can you call yourself a man? I’ve already made things clear to you. Why are you still pushing the person you like away? Let me tell you, you will definitely regret it if you give up on her!”
Culver did not look back. He walked up front and gave his bodyguards a look. The bodyguards immediately captured Nelson.
“I’ll regret it if I stay with her!”
Nelson gritted his teeth in anger, “Culver, why are you suspecting her feelings? I was blind to not know you were a scumbag!”
Culver ignored him and went straight back to his car.
…
Culver kept his words. Half an hour later, Nelson was sent back to the hospital by his subordinates.
Nelson was tired from cursing along the way. By the time he was transported into the car, he had fallen asleep.
Naomi immediately ordered Clint to get ready for their return to Rosaville City.
Curious, Harley asked, “Didn’t you say your company was facing some problems? Aren’t you going to deal with them?”
“I left my company in the hands of the experts. If any subsequent compensation fees come up, she will send them to me!”
Harley was even more curious, “What is there for you to compensate? Shouldn’t someone else compensate you instead?”
His words left Naomi confused. She questioned, “Who’s supposed to compensate me?”
“The Olsen Group!”
As he spoke, Harley turned on the TV in the car. There was a press conference held by the Olsen’s Group this afternoon.
On the screen, they saw Culver making an apology.
He explained the ins and outs of the matter and made it clear that Naomi’s company was the victim in the incident.
He said that he would bear the losses of Naomi’s company as well as compensate for the mental stress they faced.
The aim of the press conference was to make an apology to Naomi’s company.
However, due to his good attitude in wanting to make things up to Naomi, he had gained the understanding of many netizens, and even the image of the Olsen Group was improved.
Even Harley was full of praise for him.
“This young man will make a great pair with Naomi!”
Naomi was rendered speechless.
“Uncle Harley, that’s enough.” It had not been easy for her to make up her mind to stay away from Culver. Why were they trying to influence her decision?
…
On the other end, the press conference had just finished.
Aaron asked in confusion, “You’re in love with Miss George, aren’t you? Why didn’t you ask Miss George to stay after speaking with Mr. Luther?”
Culver twitched the corner of his lips, “Naomi is a human being, not an item. It’s not up to us to decide for her whether she wants to stay or not!”
“Furthermore, she has already made her choice. Why should I bother her?”
Hearing that, Aaron was shocked. He could not believe that those words had actually come from Culver’s mouth.
Culver was known for being sharp-tongued, and he had never held back in his words. People in the business world had always said that relationships were for fools, and real businessmen were all about numbers.
Aaron could not help but think to himself, “Why didn’t I record how he looked in the past? It would be so interesting to show it to him and tease him about it!”
When he saw Culver putting on a strong face, he gave up that thought. He suddenly felt that Culver was indeed a little miserable.
With his character, he might end up alone for his lifetime.
What a tragedy that would be!
…
In Rosaville City.
After a long journey, Naomi and the others had finally returned.
The first thing they did was not to return to the Granger Mansion, but to send Nelson to the hospital. The specialist they had found prior was waiting for their arrival.
As soon as they arrived at the hospital, Nelson was given a comprehensive check up.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
Soon, they came to the conclusion that Nelson was in a critical condition. However, they proposed performing a surgery to cure him.
“What is the success rate of the operation?”
Naomi asked the doctor.
The doctor shook his head and said, “Five percent.”
“That’s too low! What if the surgery fails?” Naomi asked again.
