Chapter 110
Hearing this, Reuben smiled at Naomi. “You really did have the bill, Naomi.”
Naomi collected her belongings and stood next to Brendan with a smile. “My husband will teimburse me
anyway.”
She then wrapped her arms around Brendan’s arm and teased, “Right, Mr. Ludwig?”
Although Brendan didn’t respond, he reached out and took her bag.
Mason and Ronald were baffled by the scene. “Does Brendan want a divorce or not?”
Cameron lightly tapped Ronald’s head with a paper. “You two still have a lot to learn.”
Despite the tension between him and Naomi, Brendan had never considered divorce. Regardless of what

When the group left the bar, their drivers had already brought their respective cars over.

James noticed the intimacy between the couple and smiled meaningfully. He hadn’t seen the couple being so close after their marriage.
Seeing Brendan hadn’t been distracted by her comment, Naomi became serious as well.
“I know my limits. Don’t worry.
She insisted on being a lawyer. Brendan rolled down the window to light a cigarette.

Naomi reached out and took away his cigarette, swiftly putting it out. “Smoking is bad for you. You should.
stop.
Brendan enjoyed being lectured by Naomi. But with James present, he couldn’t behave too out of line. So, he pinched her thigh in response.
