Chapter 91
“Naomi.” When Heather saw Naomi arrive, she waved her over.
Naomi approached and asked softly, “Was Ronald assaulted by someone?”
Heather replied, “No, it’s not that serious.”
The Ludwig family had a tradition of holding family meetings whenever something significant happened. Such meetings were rare in the past, but since Naomi had married Brendan, they had become somewhat more frequent.
Jackson sat in the center, and when he saw Naomi approach, he said, “Naomi, the Sabella family claims that you incited a fight between Elaine and Lily last night.”
Naomi responded, “Grandpa, I don’t have that much influence. I merely provided them with a glimpse of the truth. As for how things escalated, that was a decision made by the Sabella family themselves.”
As Naomi spoke, Jackson intentionally put on a slightly stern expression, but in his heart, he knew exactly what kind of person she was. She was full of mischief.
He said, “Even if that’s the case, you shouldn’t have provoked them at different time.”
s time. You could have chosen a
Naomi retorted, “Mrs. Sabella insisted on teaching me how to be a good person and how to have kids. Since that was the case, I figured I should seek Mr. Sabella’s advice.”
After Naomi’s response, the family’s elders began to speak.
“Jackson, you should know that Naomi has always acted with discretion. Last night, it was certainly Elaine and Madelyn who provoked things first.”
“Yes! I saw it all,” Zoey chimed in.
At that moment, she initially intended to help Naomi. However, seeing Naomi take control of the situation, she decided not to intervene. She didn’t want to get in the way and risk affecting her performance when she stepped in to mediate as an elder. So, she chose to watch from the sidelines, enjoying the spectacle thoroughly.
It was quite satisfying and enjoyable.
“Dad, Naomi always knows her limits and wouldn’t provoke others first,” Heather also sided with Naomi.
One by one, everyone supported/Naomi’s standpoint, leaving Jackson with no room for reprimand. He knew better than anyone that the Sabella family had ambitious intentions and were intentionally targeting the Goodwin family.
It wasn’t fair to blame Naomi/ So, Jackson turned his focus toward Brendan instead.
“Naomi has a reasonable, explanation, what about you, Brendan?”
Brendan had his hands in his pockets and replied, “I have no explanation.”
Seeing this, Naomi secretly asked Zoey, “Aunt Zoey, what did Brendan do to Ronald?”
Zoey whispered back, “That scoundrel gave Ronald a night of medicinal baths and didn’t let him find relief with other women. He almost wrecked him.”
Naomi retorted, “That’s horrible. He might as well have Ronald assaulted.”
Zoey said, “I agree. Grandpa said that all the malevolence of our family has concentrated on Brendan
alone.”

Upon hearing this, Jackson’s expression turn
Upon hearing this, Jackson’s expression turned stern. He said, “Both of you, each one more immoral than the other. I suggest you stop causing trouble in the future and just live your lives quietly so that you don’t
harm anyone else.”
Jackson had come to a realization. If they were to seek new partners, it seemed unlikely that they would find anyone who could match their level of immorality.
Jackson, unhappy with Brendan’s attitude, said, “Brendan, even if Ronald did something wrong, you shouldn’t have punished him like that. What if something bad had really happened?”
Brendan remained composed. “I know my limits.”
Naomi cast a sidelong glance at Brendan and then gave Ronald a sympathetic look.
Seeing this, Ronald rushed to Naomi and embraced her. “Naomi, Brendan is crazy. He almost sent me away last night.”
Naomi was about to console Ronald when Brendan shot them a cold look. “Ronald, you’d better not touch
her.”
Ronald’s outstretched arms froze in mid–air, and in the next moment, his wailing grew even louder. Naomi, he won’t even let me hug you.”
