At night, when Brendan returned home, Jennifer quickly approached him and reported, “Mr. Ludwig, you’re back! Mrs. Ludwig is also back, but she seems to be in a bad mood. She didn’t even come down for dinner.”
go check on her,” Brendan headed upstairs.
When Brendan pushed open the bedroom door, Naomi had just ended the call by the window. When she turned around and saw Brendan coming In, her expression turned grim.
Seeing her reaction, Brendan asked, “I heard you haven’t had dinner.”
Naomi tossed the phone onto the desk, ignoring Brendan’s question. Dinner? She was filled to the brim. with anger for Brendan, She didn’t have the appetite to eat!
Seeing Naomi ignore him, Brendan approached the desk and tapped his fingers on it, wanting to know what was wrong. He was sure he hadn’t done anything to provoke her these past few days.
Naomi glanced at Brendan before suddenly slamming the test report on the desk. With her hands crossed, she looked up at Brendan and huffed. “What is the meaning of this, Brendan?”
Brendan stared at her for a while before picking up the report that she had thrown. After flipping through few pages, Brendan tensed.
There were no secrets in the world. Anything one did would eventually be discovered.
But Brendan hadn’t expected that Naomi would find out so quickly. It seemed that she was eager to get
pregnant.
After tossing the report back onto the table, Brendan remained silent for a while before sighing. “You’re still young. There’s no need to have a child so soon.”
Brendan bringing up her age only worsened the situation.

She swallowed her anger when she heard Brendan say, ‘Let’s put off having children for two years.”
Put it off for two years? Naomi stared at Brendan. She uncrossed her arms and stood up. “Fine, we’ll put it off for two years.”
With that, Naomi went to the wardrobe to take out some clothes.
If he wanted to put it off for two years, then they could put off seeing each other for two years too! It would be good for her sanity as well.
Seeing Naomi preparing to leave, Brendan approached her and grabbed her arm, pulling her back

forcefully. “Naomi, it’s one thing to argue. But you’re overreacting.”
Naomi was annoyed by the sudden tug and threw the clothes in her hand at him.
“Don’t push your luck, Brendan. You could have told me you didn’t want to continue the marriage. Why did you have to take contraceptives behind my back? What do you take me for?”
Naomi wouldn’t have been mad about all of this if Brendan had told her upfront. No matter how she looked at it, the two of them were married. Yet, he was still being cautious around her.
Brendan’s anger flared. “Are you saying you married me just to have a child?”
Naomi scoffed. “Why else would I marry you? Did you think I was after your money or your body?”
Brendan felt speechless at her retort.
Naomi, of course, couldn’t be in it for the money since the Goodwin family was rich themselves. As for his body, he wished she lusted after him, but after two years of being together, he knew better.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the room became tense, and the couple stared at each other,
