After Amos said so, Eudora spotted Naomi and Nelson standing not far away from them.
Their relationship was now approved by Amos and Eudora. Therefore, Nelson and Naomi no longer needed to hide their relationship from others.
Although they were not as clingy as lovers were, their feelings for each other could not be hidden.
"Now that you've mentioned it, I suddenly feel like crying again!"
"I was just kidding!" Amos changed the topic in a hurry. Then, his eyes lingered on Nelson and Naomi.
The wedding was a simple affair that was attended by their relatives and friends. After the end of the ceremony, when Eudora returned, she felt a little sad!
"After Naomi gets married, will she move out?"
Amos felt regretful. Why had he brought up that matter? Eudora had already been a little emotional these past few days.
"There's no need for that!" Amos gave a hearty laugh, but a twinge of sorrow was in his heart.
"There are many rooms in our house. After Naomi gets married, she can live at home or move out. If you don't want to be too far away from her, we could buy a house for them at Clearwater Bay! It's just a small issue!"
After that, Eudora finally calmed down a little.
"You're right! I'll ask Naomi when the time comes!"
As they talked, Naomi walked out from inside. Eudora immediately turned her attention to Naomi. Only then did Amos let out a sigh of relief!
That night, Eudora and Naomi drove Amos out, and the both of them stayed in the same room.
It was a beautiful night for them to cultivate their familial relationship. Amos went downstairs dejectedly and saw Nelson standing in the living room. Then, he walked straight towards him.
"Follow me. Let's go out for a walk!"
Amos and Nelson walked around the garden for more than ten minutes, but none of them spoke.
In the end, Nelson could not hold himself back and was the first to speak.
"Mr. Granger..." "Naomi has suffered a lot since she was a child.
Although she has a straightforward personality, her mental state is quite delicate. You have to remember this. Do not make her sad!"
Nelson was stunned, but he immediately nodded his head and replied, "I won't!"
"It's precisely because she has suffered a lot since she was a child that her mother and I have spoiled her. She doesn't know many things. Don't blame her forthat!"
"Of course I wouldn't!" Nelson hurriedly said as he looked towards Amos.
Amos continued, "You are the first man besides the Granger family that I trust. My precious daughter has been with us for twenty years. I will leave her to you in the future. You must take good care of her. If one day she becomes sad and says that you aren't treating her well, I, Amos Granger, will not let you go! Do you understand?"
"I understand!" For some reason, Nelson felt a bead of cold sweat dripping down his back.
He had known that Amos had a domineering aura, but it was only after he had spoken to him in this way that he realized that Amos was not just strong, but charismatic as well!
"Do you have anything else to say to me?"
Amos asked one last time.
"Ah?" Nelson raised his eyes to look at Amos.
"Tell me whether you have anything that you've concealed in your past, or any other motives that you have. It's not too late to say it now!
"As long as it doesn't go against my morals and won't hurt Naomi, I will pretend that nothing has happened before! However, if you don't say it now and I find out about it in the future, then..."
His sharp gaze was fixed on Nelson's face.
Nelson held his breath.
For a split second, he felt like he was on the verge of losing his cool! However, in the end, he was able to control himself.
"No, there's nothing else!"
