Η Sering Naomi not making any move to get into the car, Maximus explained, “I’m going to Yellowind Bay, so we’ll be using the same coure,” It was obvious that he knew about Naomi’s current situation. Since Maximus had insisted, his secretary got out of the car and opened the door for her. Naomi had no choice but to get into the car. Alter Naomi got into the car, Maximus said happily, “Long time no see. “Long time no see,” Naomi responded with a smile. Two years ago, before she and Brendan had gotten married, Maximus had come to her family to propose marriage, but she had refused. Then, Maxims was transferred. Before he left Ashburg, he had wanted to meet up with her, but she had already gone to Sanya with Brendan at the time. So, they had last met each other two years ago. As the car started, Naomi changed the topic to ask about Maximus himself. “Are you back for good this time, or are you just back for a vacation?” “I’ve been transferred back. The official notice will be issued within the next few days,” Maximus answered. “You must have been promoted then. Congratulations Seeing that Maximus was in a good mood tonight, the secretary turned to Naomi and said, “Ms. Goodwin, Mr. Martin has been promoted. He’s now the mayor.” Naomi couldn’t help but laugh and say, “Since you’ve become the deputy, I guess I’ll have to fawn over you more from now on.” Listening to Naomi’s words, Maximus laughed too. “Ill be very happy to see you do that.” “I hope you won’t get bored of me,” Naomi said jokingly. Maximus knew Naomi very well. He knew that she wouldn’t curry favor with anyone, no matter how much power that person possessed Meanwhile, Brendan was at the hospital When the doctor finished treating the wound on Chloe’s forehead, she looked at Brendan embarrassedly and apologized, “I’m sorry for causing your trouble and wasting your time again, Brendan.” Brendan didn’t respond to her words but only asked, “Do you have any other injuries?! Chloe shook her head. “No.” “Let me send you home,” Brendan said. On the way to Chloe’s house, Brendan remained silent, as if it were just empty air beside him. Chloe held the seat belt tightly with both hands and stared at Brendan for a while She then said, “I don’t know what’s wrong with my mother these days. Her condition seems to be getting worse, and she’s acting like a different person. “It’s such a relief that Caleb is staying at his teacher’s house. I can’t imagine how shocked he would be if he saw what happened today.” Chloe’s forehead injury had been caused by her mother, Jason was helping to deal with her mother’s affairs, so Brendan had no choice but to accompany Chloe to the hospital Holding the steering wheel with both hands, Brendan turned to look at Chloe and asked, “Have you ever considered sending her to a hospital?” The hospital Brendan was referring to was a mental hospital Chloe shook her head. “Forget about it. I’ll take care of her myself!” Brendan reminded, “The last time you checked your condition, the result wasn’t good. It’ll be easier for you to send her to the hospital.” Chloe took a deep breath and said, “If I send her in, she won’t have the chance to leave anymore. She’ll no longer be able to live a normal life, so I’d rather take care of her myself. I believe she’ll get better” Listening to Chloe, Brendan stopped giving suggestions. When both of them fell into silence, Brendan’s phone suddenly rang. He answered the call and heard Mason’s voice. “Brendan, Maximus is back.” Hearing this news, Brendan’s expression darkened.

Throughout her two-year marriage, Naomi Goodwin is focused on completing her mission and giving birth to a child. Yet Brendan Ludwig says coldly, “You’re not worthy of bearing my child, Naomi.”In a fit of rage, Naomi signs a divorce agreement, wanting to put an end to this debacle. But in response, all she gets is someone saying, “Mrs. Ludwig, Mr. Ludwig is spending the night at home!”
Chapter 24 Brendan responded with his beautiful yet flirty voice, “Yes?” Seeing how the young couple had cooperated tacitly, Madelyn was instantly stunned before she could even react. Naomi had to have done it on purpose Madelyn hadn’t expected Brendan to reply, and so ambiguously at that ton “Brendan ” Madelyn looked at Brendan in disbelief, as if he wasn’t the Brendan she knew. After coming back to her senses, she turned and looked at Naomi. “Naomi, you must have cast some spell on Brendan. I wanted to hold back and not expose the ugly things you’ve done to the public. But you’re too arrop. You don’t even take Brendan seriously,” # After that, Madelyn took out her phone from her purse. She opened her photo gallery and showed it to Brendan. “Brendan, Naomi might look like a good girl, but she cheated on you a long time ago. I have the evidence here. Take a look at this if you don’t believe me.” Many people around them looked over as they heard Madelyn’s words With his hands in his pockets, Brendan glanced at Madelyn’s phone indifferently. The photo in Madelyn’s phone indeed depicted Naomi having an affair with a man. At this moment, Madelyn looked at Naomi with hatred and said, “Naomi, you’re doomed this time. Seeing this, Naomi lowered her eyes, glanced at Madelyn’s phone, and smiled as if she didn’t care. “I thought you had taken a picture of me sleeping with someone. Naomi seemed like she really didn’t care. Seeing Naomi’s response, Madelyn became mad “Brendan, look at how arrogant Naomi is. Just listen to what she’s saying. She must have cheated on you.” Madelyn was furious Brendan put his hands in his pockets and slowly shifted his glance toward her. “The man in the photo is me.” “What?” Madelyn was stunned. “You’re the man in the photo?” Shocked, Madelyn took a closer look at her phone and suddenly felt that the man’s figure was somewhat similar to Brendan’s. “Brendan, that’s impossible…” Madelyn stuttered. She didn’t know what to say. At the side, Naomi crossed her arms in front of her chest and showed an indifferent smile. “Madelyn, you can’t even recognize Brendan. It seems that I’ve overestimated your affection for my husband.” After Neomi finished speaking, everyone around them laughed. When Madelyn had taken out her phone earlier, Naomi had noticed that the photo had been taken when Brendan had come to pick her up after she had been discharged from the hospital, How could she dare to show these photos? Naomi genuinely thought that Madelyn’s brain wasn’t functioning well. “Naomi, you‘ Madelyn’s face turned pale in shame and anger. She raised her hand toward Naomi. “Don’t you dare laugh at me, or I’ll hit you.” Before she could touch Naomi, someone grabbed her hand. Madalyn turned to look and saw that it was Brendan grabbing her hand. Her eyes turned red. Just as she was about to speak, Brendan pushed her away. “Who are you to hit her? Seeing Brendan being so protective toward Naomi, Madelyn cried, “Brendan, don’t let Naomi deceive you. She’s not a good person. Even your marriage…” Before Madelyn could finish speaking, Brendan’s phone in his pocket rang Brendan didn’t bother to respond to Madelyn. He turned away and picked up the call. Everyone around them started gossiping. Those who knew the truth told the others that Naomi and Brendan had married each other two years ago Madelyn felt wronged. At the same time, Naomi took two steps forward and slightly leaned forward to whisper into Madelyn’s ear, “Madelyn, thank you for helping me clarify things.” Batore, not many people knew about her relationship with Brendan But thanks to the mess that Madelyn had created, more people in their circle knew about them now. Madelyn lifted her head and locked at Naomi before shouting, “So what if you’re married? There are so many divorces nowadays. Maybe one day it’ll be Naomi smiled faintly and said, “It’s better than never being married to him at all.” “Naoral, you” Madelyn was speechless
Chapter 23 On Saturday, it was Johnson’s birthday. Naomi had to work until late that day. She was just about to leave her client’s office to go home and change her clothes when she received a call from Jason. She could see Brendan’s car by the roadside when she went downstairs. When she had been admitted to the hospital a few days ago, they had fought after Heather had told Brendan about the check. Since then, their relationship had gotten better. After opening the car door, Naomi raised her eyebrows and praised, “You look great today.” “I always look great,” Brendan answered. “You have no sense of shame,” Naomi said, smiling. When Brendan and Naomi arrived at the hotel around six o’clock, the other guests had already arrived Naomi and Brendan greeted and congratulated Johnson. After that, Brendan stayed by Naomi’s side. Christine’s eyes turned red. She was touched to see them being so close in public for the first time after being married for two years. She felt like Naomi was finally living a happy life. When Naomi and Brendan appeared together, it immediately sparked a lot of discussion Everyone was curious and secretly asked each other a few questions. But they didn’t discuss it excessively since it was Johnson’s birthday celebration. They were all in the same circle. Naomi knew the same people that Brendan knew, so she could easily talk to everyone. After Brendan and Naomi finished greeting a group of elders, Madelyn suddenly rushed out from behind them and put her arms around Brendan’s arm. “Brendan, I didn’t know you were already here! I’ve been waiting for you at the door for a long time.” Feeling Madelyn’s excitement, Brendan’s face darkened. He lifted his other hand and dusted off the arm that Madelyn had held. “Brendan, do you dislike me?” After acting coquettishly in front of Brendan, Madelyn suddenly frowned when she saw Naomi next to Brendan “Naomi?” At that moment, Madelyn was quite shocked. She had thought that they didn’t get along well. Right after that, Madelyn put her arms around Brendan’s arm again and complained angrily, “Brendan, Naomi is so ungrateful and despicable. Not only did she hit someone in the bar last time, but she had also called the police before the other person even got to complain. “Brendan, this kind of woman is too scheming. You should divorce her quickly. Otherwise, you’ll have bad luck” Naomi cracked her knuckles. “I think I was too gentle last time.” Madelyn was scared and hid behind Brendan, “Brendan, look how fierce she is. If you don’t divorce her, she might abuse you one day.” Madelyn’s words hit Brendan’s sore spot. He had been domestically abused a long time ago and had even gone to the hospital for it Brendan pushed Madelyn away, then looked at Naomi and said, “I won’t stop you if you want to beat her up.” “Brendan!” Madelyn exclaimed, reaching out to hold Brendan’s arm again. Seeing that, Naomi grabbed Madelyn’s arm and dismissively pushed it aside. “Madelyn, don’t you dare touch him again.” “Why can’t 17” Madelyn found it funny. “Do you really think of Brendan as your husband? Did you even have a wedding? Does anyone believe that you’re Mrs. Ludwig? Naomi Goodwin, who do you think you are to speak to me like this? When it came to the relationship between Naomi and Brendan, Madelyn had investigated them even more thoroughly than their own parents Madelyn seemed to know how many nights they had slept together in these two years of marriage, even more clearly than Naomi Before Naomi could speak, Madelyn said arrogantly, “How dare you stop me from touching Brendan? Do you want to declare your sovereignty? Try calling Brendan your husband. See if he agrees to it.” Madelyn was very sure that Brendan didit Du Naomi and wouldn’t agree to it. She had dared to fight against Naomi at the bar last time because of this. After Madelyn Einished speaking. Nammi turtied in look at Brenilai and called out, “Husband”
Chapter 22 Brendan had soft lips. Indeed, he was great at kissing. After a while, Naci could feel her legs weakening from the kiss. With her arms around his neck and her chin resting on his shoulder, she thought that they would start making out. Brendan bit Naomi’s ears all of a sudden, exhaled hot breath, and whispered, “Naomi, your aunt is here.” At first, Naomi didn’t react, thinking that her aunt had just gone abroad for a trip recently. The next second, she realized that Brendan was referring to her period. She then let go of Brendan, pulled at her pajamas, and turned to look. All she could see was a bright red spot on her butt. At that moment, Naomi couldn’t even cry. She had lost her precious opportunity. Naomi raised her head and gazed at Brendan. Seeing Brendan taking a book and sitting on the bed like nothing had happened, she knew what was going on. Brendan had probably noticed that she was on her period, so he had just teased her for fun. She gritted her teeth and said, “You might have gotten away with it this time, but not next time.” Brendan looked up. “You’re still not getting changed?” If he was unwilling to do anything, there was nothing Naomi could do. Opposingly, Naomi couldn’t get away either. He was the one holding all the power in this game. Feeling embarrassed, Naomi went to the bathroom. Since Naomi was on her period, she stopped teasing Brendan. Although Brendan stayed home for the next few days, Naomi stopped teasing him and focused on her work. At this point, Brendan had seen through Naomi. She wouldn’t talk to him at all if she had no intentions. Moreover, besides teasing him occasionally, she spent almost all her time and energy on her work. She was fully committed, even for very ordinary small cases. Mason was right about Naoml. She was indeed a good woman. But she didn’t love him, which was her only shortcoming. “Naomi, look at the time. It’s time to sleep.” Sitting on the bed, Brendan put down the book in his hands. “I’m almost done. There’s no need to walt for me,” Naomi answered. “You’re just a lawyer, but you’re busier than me,” Brendan sald as he picked the book back up. “I still need to fulfill my responsibilities as a lawyer,” Naomi responded. After a while, when Brendan was still reading his book, Naomi suddenly rushed over, lifted her leg, and straddled him. Brendan calmly looked at Naomi. “Since you’re snuggling into my arms now, it seems like your period is over.” “Can’t I do it even when it’s not over?” Naomi asked. As she was speaking, she twisted a few times on purpose, Again, Brendan put down the book in his hands and held Naomi’s waist with his arms. “Let’s just talk” “There’s nothing to talk about. I’m just in a good mood,” Naomi answered. Taking on a major case today had made her happy. Seeing Naomi act so affectionately while being fully aware of it, Brendan softened. She used to mess around with him like this. Brendan hugged Naomi as he listened to her talk about her job. When she felt sleepy, Brendan turned off the lights. It had been a long time since they last had a nice talk.
Chapter 21 Nammud was speechleis, “Don’t worry! I have no energy to do what I really want to do since I’m still sick! I can’t fall asleep with you sitting beside me,” Naomi said “Hat you slept so soundly earlier,” Brendan answered. “Stop arguling with me. I won’t do anything;, so come on up here!” Naomi promised After listening to Naomi’s repeated assurances, Brendan slowly took off his shirt and got into bed Since Naomi had promised Brendan that she wouldn’t do anything, she didn’t touch him even after he got into the bed Unexpectedly, Brendan turned over and hugged her from behind. Naomi turned her head, puzzled. She remembered Brendan telling her not to touch him. Naomi was about to ask Brendan when she heard him saying in his deep voice, “You’ve lost weight. Even your boobs have become smaller.” Brendan grabbed Naomi’s chest with his right hand as he spoke. Norni didn’t push Brendan’s hand away. She said while smiling, “You seem to like big boobs. How about I get an augmentation for an F–cup? I guarantee that you won’t be able to grab them with only one hand.” Brendan continued to touch Naomi’s chest. “I’m not interested in fake boobs. ” Naomi rubbed her back against him and said, “I think mine will go back to its usual size after I’m discharged.” In fact, Naomi had large C–cup–sized breasts. Holding Naomi tightly in his arms, Brendan rested his chin on her shoulder and put his face against hers. “Let’s sleep.” Naomi stretched her hand backward. “With such a romantic ambience, it would be a waste not to do anything” Brendan held Naomi’s hand. “I haven’t done anything to you yet, but you can’t hold it anymore?” Naomi L turned to look at Brendan. “How can I feel nothing with you acting like this? I’m a normal woman with needs. ” “Naomi, believe it or not, I’ll throw you out the window, Brendan said. Naomi looked at Brendan suspiciously. “Brendan, why do I feel like you did it on purpose? You made my toes curl, and now I can’t fall asleep.” “Sleep,” Brendan ordered, holding Naomi even tighter. After a while, Brendan was still awake, but Naomi had already started snoring despite making a fuss just now. He lowered his eyes and looked at her. If she hadn’t been sick, he might not have been able to hold himself back. A week later, Naomi was discharged after getting a checkup and was deemed recovered. Brendan came over to pick her up After returning home, taking a shower, and changing into her usual pajamas, Naomi finally regained her strength. “Johnson is celebrating his birthday on Saturday. He’s sent us the invitation card yesterday,” Brendan said as he came out of the bathroom and tidied his hair. “Johnson is turning 70 this year, isn’t he?” Naomi aslood. They had gone over and spent some time with Johnson Martin for his previous birthdays. “That’s right.” After replying to Naomi and seeing her approaching, Brendan raised his hand and touched her forehead. “Are you still not teeling well? Naomi wrapped her arms around Brendan’s neck and raised her head. “Are you worried about me?” Brendan held her small waist. “Don’t you like that?” “Of course.” Naomi smiled even more happily. “I love it.” She then stood on her toes and kissed Brendan’s lips. They had gotten along well the past few days, and Naomi had been considering getting things done while the atmosphere was great Brendan didn’t push her away. He slightly tightened his arm around her waist and pulled her toward him. Nactal let out a moan when she touched Brendan She sounded quite passionate. Chapter 22
Chapter 20 When Naomi heard Brendan suddenly bring up the check, she siniled and said, “It doesn’t matter who gave it.” What would happen even if she had told him? Maybe Brendan knew what was going on but pretended like he knew nothing Naomi looked like she didn’t care at all. Brendan stared at her for a while before saying coldly, “Naorni, if you really want to live a good life and have a child, don’t try to please me superficially Effort without intention is nothing” Listening to Brendan, Naurd was left speechless. “Someone who doesn’t even come home is actually trying to teach me how to manage my marriage,” Naomi said. Brendan had nothing to say in response. He felt like he was being insulted. After clearing his throat, he said in a much softer tone, “Didn’t I promise you I’d go home once a week? “Don’t even mention that! You’ve kept the promise only once. I’ll just pretend I didn’t hear it,” Naomi said.. He shouldn’t even think about asking her to act in front of his family again. “I’ll make it up to you, along with interest,” Brendan said. Brendan’s husky yet magnetic voice was surprisingly pleasant, and it sounded even better when he spoke softly to Naomi “If you say so,” Naomi said, smiling happily. “I’m ready to charge you a heavy interest.” Brendan gave a grimace and then raised his hand to pinch Naomi’s check. “Naomi, don’t make your intentions so obvious.” Although Naomi didn’t mention her intention, Brendan knew that she wanted to have a child. Naomi moved her butt toward Brendan and wrapped her arms around his neck, “Don’t you want to try?” Naomi was indeed quite p persistent when it came to having a child. Brendan remained unfazed by Naomi’s seductive eyes. “I don’t.” Naomi said in disbelief, “You’re lying!” As she said that, she leaned in closer toward Brendan. “Ms. Naomi Goodwin, it’s time for a checkup” Just as Naomi was about to kiss Brendan, a nurse pushed open the hospital room’s door. Naomi quickly leaned back on the bed. She lifted her hands to tuck her long hair behind her ears and pretended like nothing had happened. Brendan laughed when he saw this He stood up from the chair slowly and tucked his hands into his pockets. He then lowered his gaze and said, “Aren’t you going to hide?” Naomi extended her fair leg from under the blanket and kicked Brendan without hesitation Meanwhile, the face of the chubby nurse at the door turned red. After checking her body temperature and taking a blood sample, it was determined that Naomi still had a fever and hadn’t recovered yet. She had to continue getting injections and remain under observation. In the afternoon, Ronald came over to visit, along with his family members and some of Naomi’s cousins. When they arrived, Brendan greeted them quietly from beside her and occasionally answered his work calls. The hospital room finally became quiet at night. At this moment, Naomi had just finished washing up and was about to go to bed. When she saw Brendan adjusting the chairs so that he could lie down, she moved her body to the side and patted the other side of the bed. “You can sleep here.” Brendan glanced at her and said indifferently, “I won’t.” Naomi put on a wry expression and said, “I’m not going to eat you” “That’s exactly what I’m worried about,” Brendan answered With that pair of gold–rimmed glasses perched on his nose, Brendan looked elegant and reguish at the same time. He was indeed quite charming. The more obvious Naomi’s intentions became, the less Brendan would allow her to have her way.
Chapter 19 Hearing Naomi’s voice, Heather forgot what she was about to say and replied, “I rushed over as soon as I heard from Ronald that and Dad wanted to come along too, but I didn’t let them.” “It’s just food poisoning. I’ll get better in a couple of days, Naomi answered. Right after Naomi finished speaking, a nurse came over with some medicine. Heather talked to Naomi while Brendan sliced some fruits for the two of them. As they talked, Naomi leaned against the bed and unconsciously fell asleep. ו “Look how thin she has become because of the illness,” Heather said in concern as she sat beside Naomi you were unwell, Mom Right after that, Heather turned her gaze toward Brendan and said, “Brendan, you’d better send Chloe away to the farthest place possible. It’s best if she doesn’t stay in Ashburgh anymore.” Brendan handed her half an orange and said, “Mom, there’s nothing going on between me and Chloe. Why do you insist on giving her a hard time?” not trying to give her a hard time. I’m just afraid that Naomi would overthink and get upset. “Why don’t you try putting yourself in her shoes? If Maximus comes back and sticks around Naomi all the time, wouldn’t that make you uncomfortable? “Heather replied. There was a noticeable shift in Brendan’s expression at the mention of Maximus Martin He then stuffed the remaining half of the orange into his mouth. He raised his head and looked at Naomi on the hospital bed. Seeing Brendan remaining silent, Heather spoke again softly, “Since you’re married to Naomi, you should stop fooling around and keep a distance from other women. There’s one more thing I need to tell you Chloe isn’t as simple as she seems. Don’t let her fool you.” In short, Heather didn’t like anyone apart from Naomi, “I don’t have other intentions toward Chloe,” Brendan answered calmly. *Send her away then. One more thing, last time, when I told Naomi to give her a check, I didn’t expect that wench to actually take it. “It seems that Naomi was right. Suggesting this idea has brought her trouble. Now that I think about it, I’ve underestimated Chloe,” Heather said. Brendan turned his head and looked at Heather. “Were you the one who told Naomi to give the check to Chloe? He should have known that. Naomi wouldn’t do that herself. But he had thought that Naomi was trying to disgust him. He didn’t expect his mother to have been the one to come up with that idea behind his back Most Importantly, Naomi didn’t mention his mother at all when he had flung the check at her. Shifting his gaze to Naomi, Brendan wished that Naomi would argue and quarrel with him just like other women. In this way, he would feel better. She was always so generous, making him feel like a nobody. “It was me. I’d even used my savings,” Heather said. After that, Brendan didn’t pay any attention to Heather, even when she continued to nag at him. Ar on, when Naomi woke up from her sleep, Heather had already left. But Brendan was still there. “Aren’t you busy today?” Naomi asked, resting her arm on her forehead. He used to always say that he was busy. Naomi was quite shocked to see Brendan there. “I’m not busy,” Brendan answered. Then, he asked, “Why didn’t you tell tell me that Mom was the one who told you to give the check to Chloe?” That day, when Brendan had asloed Naomi, he recalled that she had just told him to give her 20 million dollars so that she could have someone dratt divorce agreement Brendan was unsure whether Naomi had really meant it or if she had just been kidding.
Chapter 18 He remembered that Naomi had called him last year. He was in a meeting at the time and had asked Jason to return the call, but she had said that everything was fine Later, he went on a business trip. Observing Berdan’s change in expression after saying what she had been holding back, Bailey turned to Naomi and said, “Naomi, get some rest. I’ll come and visit you later” After Bailey left, Naomi noticed that Brendan had remained silent with a stern expression the whole time. She resumed her usual composure and marked, “Alright, don’t look so stem. With a wife as considerate as me, you should be happy.” Then, she added, “Don’t mention Bailey next time. There are many things you don’t know, and doing that would upset her.” It wasn’t acceptable for outsiders to talk about it, let alone someone close to her. Naomi dismissed Brendan’s indifference. He held the back of her neck and suddenly pulled her closer. “Naomi, do you still have feelings for me?” Observing Naomi, thinking about her past experience of avoiding trouble and the stubbornness she had shown in steering clear of it, Brendan suddenly telt a bit uneasy. He was afraid of becoming the person Naomi wanted to avoid. In response to Brendan’s question, Naomi smiled faintly. “If I felt nothing, how could I go on? “Besides, even though I’m unwell, you’ve come here to visit me empty–handed. And now you’re wearing such a stern expression. Do you have no shame? Naomi casually teased Brendan, but he slowly loosened his hold on her neck. Gently stroking her face with his hand, he asked, “Why didn’t you tell me about such an important thing?” If it were another woman, she would probably bring it up repeatedly for the rest of her life. However, Naomi hadn’t mentioned it at all. Naomi, who was dressed in a hospital gown, casually remarked, “It’s all in the past, and I’m fine now. The more casually Naomi spoke, the more uncomfortable Brendan felt. Despite their strained relationship, he was still her husband. With her right hand on Brendan’s wrist, Naomi was about to move his hand away from her face. Brendan exerted more force, pulling her even closer. Stumbling forward, she ended up snuppling against Brendan. Seeing a hint of affection in his eyes, Naomi raised her hands, encircling his neck. “Are you ready to have a child?” “Don’t you have anything else on your mind?” Naomi insisted, “Let’s have one! Otherwise, life would be too boring” Brendan declined and replied, “No.” Rising on her tiptoes, Naomi playfully rubbed her forehead against Brendan’s. “Let’s have one, just one!” With a smile in his eyes, Brendan said, “Nope.” Naomi was still like a child herself, and she hadn’t figured out her own feelings yet. “Brendan!” He gave a noncommittal hum in reply. In the midst of their ambiguous interaction, the door suddenly opened. Heather’s voice burst out energetically, “Naomi, why are you suddenly sick?” Inside the room, Brendan and Naomi quickly let go of each other. At the door, Heather stood still for a moment. After staring at them for a while, she finally asked, “Are you two fighting or being affectionate?” Naomi didn’t answer the question and instead said, “Mom, you’re here!”
Chapter 17 Before Jason could finish speaking, Naomi’s phone rang Nani answered the phone and said, “Hello, Mr Obel.” The clit began to complain, seemingly endlessly. Jason had no chance to tell Naomi what he wanted to say. Considering her use of “your boss” nurber, he felt that a clear distance had emerged between her and Brendan. Around ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of the law firm. Still on the call, Naomi thanked Jason for the ride and headed upstairs. That evening, when Brendan returned to Yellowind Bay, Naomi had already left on a business trip. Brendan returned home for the next three days, but Naomi remained in Betvoria for her work. This time, Brendan felt the loneliness. he law firm for an overtime On Saturday afternoon, when most people were off work, Naomi returned from her business trip and went straight to the Being a lawyer often meant irregular working hours. Engrossed in organizing case files, Naomi lost track of time. In the evening, her mother called to ask her to join her for dinner, but Naomi was too busy to make it. With the case files she had just organized in her left hand, she sensed a subtle ache in her abdomen. She pressed her right hand against that area. The abdominal discomfort started when she was on her way back by high–speed rail this afternoon. Initially, Naomi didn’t pay much attention to it, but the pain gradually intensified. She tried to ignore it and continued with her work. However, the pain worsened, making her unable to sit upright. She felt weak all over, cold sweat forming on her forehead. Unable to bear the discomfort any longer, she picked up her phone and called Balley, “Bailey, are you free?” Shortly after the call ended, Bailey, who had short hair and was wearing a dark floral shirt, rushed over. She remarked, “You’re all messed up, but you’ve decided to reach out for help only now?” Then, she assisted Naomi downstairs After a while, they arrived at the hospital. The doctor diagnosed Naomi with acute gastroenteritis and recommended hospitalization. Naomi was given an intravenous drip. Beside the hospital bed, Bailey looked at the pale–faced Naomi and scolded, “Everyone’s taking a break, but you’re the exception. Is the company your family’s business? Does all the money belong to you?”” Naomi wealdy said, “I’ll have nothing to do if I took a break.” ley considered Brendan’s recent attitude toward Naomi and the rumors circulating around the Ludwig family. Bailey She was tired of scolding Naomi. She believed everyone needed a way to vent when life wasn’t going well The two of them tacitly decided not to inform Brendan or their families of the incident. However, the next day, news of Naomi’s hospitalization reached her family. Early in the morning, both her parents, Dennis Goodwin and Christine Ziegler, came to visit her, fussing over her. Naomi explained that she had eaten something bad during her business trip. After politely dealing with her parents, Naomi sent them away, feeling exhausted. At this moment, Bailey said, “Your mom does indeed nag a lot.” Neomi replied, “You haven’t seen her crying yet.” With her hands in her pockets, Bailey’s face revealed a hint of admiration. In a way, this was also good Bailey wished she had the chance to be scolded by her mother. As soon as Naomi sat on the bed, the door to the hospital room was opened. Looking up, she saw Brendan entering. She asked in surprise, “Why are you here? Aren’t you busy today?” Staring at Naomi, Brendan remarked coldly, “What could keep me busy on a weekend?” Seeing Brendan’s impatience, Naomi remained silent He had never spolum to her like this before. After staring at Brendan for a while, Naomi turned to Balley and said, “Bailey, give him some water.” Naomi’s courtesy and the surprise in her voice made it seem as if Brendars wasn’t her husband but a friend Staring at Naomi, Brendan remarked coldly, “What could keep me busy on a weekend?” Seeing Brendan’s Impatience, Naomi remained silent. … Read More “Boomerang Love (Naomi and Brendan) Online Novel Chapter 17” »

These situations had occurred too often. Despite her patience and good temper, she felt worn out and was contemplating giving up. When she had given the check to Chloe, she had been ready for an argument with Brendan. Seeing Naomi’s nonchalant demeanor, Brendan couldn’t help but feel heartbroken. After a brief gaze at Naomi, he turned to Chloe and remarked, “Chloe, you should leave first.” As Chloe left, she explained, “Brendan, Naomi didn’t mean it. It’s just a misunderstanding. Don’t argue with her, and just explain things calmly.” After that, she gave Naomi some advice and left Brendan’s office. As Chloe closed the door, she couldn’t resist glancing back at the office from the hallway. She had never told anyone, but she envied Naomi. Only Naomi could elicit a response from Brendan, even if it was just anger. In the office, when Naomi saw that the office’s door was closed, she took the check that Brendan had tossed just now. Seeing this, Brendan asked, “Naomi, you don’t want to continue the marriage?” Naomi looked at him, sighed gently, and said, “Brendan, I’ve tried hard enough for you already.” The implication was clear. Her decision on whether to divorce or stay with him depended on him. Naomi wouldn’t plead or drag things out, In fact, over the past two years, if Brendan had been determined to divorce her and handed her the divorce agreement, she wouldn’t have refused, even if she wouldn’t become the mother of his child In life, everyone needed their dignity. It was possible to be persistent for a while, but it was impossible to be persistent forever. Naomi’s indifferent tone and words left Brendan suddenly speechless. He said, “I have a meeting later. I’ll have Jason send you home.” Naomi stood up gracefully from her chair. “I can go home by myself.” However, Jason was adamant. Since Brendan had asked him to send Naomi home, he insisted on doing so. Naomi found his insistence amusing and tossed him her car keys. “Fine, you can drive my car and take a taxi back later. ” After taking Naomi’s car keys, Jason opened the car door and got in. Alter a moment, the engine started. Jason gripped the steering wheel before turning to look at Naomi. He remarked, “Ms. Goodwin, actually, Mr. Ludwig and Ms. Yates aren’t together like you think. A few days ago, something happened to Ms. Yates‘ family, and she wasn’t in a good condition, so…” Before Jason could finish his sentence, Naomi interrupted him, “Brendan isn’t even afraid of me misunderstanding, so why are you so worried for him? “Mr. Ludwig is just feeling embarrassed.” “Embarrassed?” Naomi smiled. “Then, let him bel” “Ms. Goodwin, it’s really not what you think” “Jason, if you say it like this, it only makes me more suspicious. Initially, I’d thought that she was his lover, and that’s why your b your boss treats her well “Now, you’re telling me that they’re just colleagues, but he treats his colleague better than his wife. Jason, you’re just making me even sadder!” Naomi’s witty remarks left Jason speechless. Looking at Naomi again, although she seemed indifferent, her eyes revealed a touch of self–mockery. Jason said, “Ms. Goodwin, Mr. Ludwig is taking care of Ms. Yates now because of something that happened three years ago.” 17
