Chapter 265
Chloe knew everything about him. They’d gone through life and death together. Even someone as proud and wealthy as Brendan could assimilate perfectly into Chloe’s life.
In these two years, the number of times he’d gone to Chloe’s house was probably much more than that of the Goodwins.
Naomi looked away from Caleb’s room and said, “Don’t worry. Brendan will find the truth.
“Yeah, I believe Brendan.” Chloe nodded and continued, “Naomi, please don’t misunderstand me.” Chloe took the chance to make peace with Naomi.
Naomi smiled and replied, “You’re not important enough to make me lose sleep over you.”
She was extremely clear that Chloe would never have the chance to enter the Ludwig family. If Brendan wanted to take care of her in other ways, she could do nothing about it.
She could control him, but not his heart. In addition, men shouldn’t need to be controlled. If he loved her, he wouldn’t let her misunderstand him or feel sad.
Chloe wanted to respond to Naomi. However, she didn’t say anything.
The unlocked door slammed open. Jason had rushed over and asked, “Ms. Yates, are you home?”
As he finished his question, he noticed that Naomi was there. He was surprised and hurriedly greeted her, “Mrs. Ludwig.”
Jason saw them chatting in the living room. He said, “Mrs. Ludwig, I had something to handle at home, which is why I was late and needed you to make a trip here.”
Naomi stood up unhurriedly and replied, “I’m going to get some air.”
In front of them, Brendan heard Jason’s voice. He walked out and said, “I’ll go with you.”
“Mr. Ludwig.” After Jason greeted him, he continued, “Why don’t you and Mrs. Ludwig go home first? I can handle things here. A doctor will come over later.”
Since Jason had come over, Brendan walked toward Naomi and took her hand. Monitor what’s going on here. Naomi and I will go home first.”
When Caleb saw Brendan was leaving, he hugged his arm and asked, “Brendan, are you going home? Can’t you play with me for a while more?”
Brendan replied, “Naomi hasn’t had dinner yet. I need to take her home to eat. Jason
will stay here to play with you.”
Caleb could only let go of Brendan’s arm upon hearing his words. He said, “Alright!”
The Yates siblings watched him leave with reluctance brimming in their eyes. Even when he and Naomi disappeared from their line of sight, they never went back inside
the house.
Jason reminded them that Brendan had left. Caleb looked at Chloe and reflected,
Chloe, if only you were Brendan’s wife. Then, we could be family with Brendan and live together.”
Chloe’s expression changed. “Caleb, you’re not supposed to say that. Brendan and
Naomi are family.”
As she spoke, she awkwardly explained to Jason, “Jason, my brother is young and
not familiar with the ways of the world. Don’t take it seriously.”
I know.” Jason changed the topic and asked, “How’s your mom? Does she need to

aomi was silent. Brendan looked at her and asked, “What are you thinking about?”
er current demeanor was completely different from how she’d behaved in the tchen. He knew it hadn’t been wise to take her with him.
