Boomerang Love

Maximus' reminder snapped Naomi back to reality. She chuckled to herself. If Brendan hadn't forgotten about Sophia, he shouldn't have agreed to this marriage in the first place.

Why was Brendan playing the role of a loving husband now? Wasn't he repulsed by the very idea of their marriage?

With these thoughts in mind, Naomi picked up her spoon with a cold expression, too tired to bother anymore.

By 9:00 pm. the two men had drained the two boxes of beer and a bottle of white wine. Maximus's face was already deathly pale, his brows furrowed tightly. Ryan was sweating profusely beside him, and Naomi's patience was thinning.

Finally, dinner was over.

As they parted, Maximus reminded Brendan to treat Naomi well. Brendan merely smirked.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

"You don't need to worry about my wife."

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the small hotel. When Naomi moved to help Brendan, he coldly said, "I don't need your help."

Naomi's movement halted, and her expression froze. She stared at Brendan for a while before slowly straightening up in silence.

Moments later, the two entered the room. Brendan unbuttoned his shirt and sneered mockingly. "I can't believe he came all the way here. What a considerate man."

Naomi was tying her hair. When she heard Brendan's sarcastic remark, she snorted coldly. "If you were a day late, you would have caught us in bed."

Since Brendan was convinced she was having an affair with Maximus, she didn't bother correcting him. He could think whatever he wanted. She didn't have the energy to cater to him.

Next time, Brendan could reminisce about whoever he wanted. She didn't care. She had endured for two years now. She was tired.

Brendan gazed sharply at Naomi. "Did I mess up your plan?"

Once she tied her hair up, Naomi crossed her arms and leaned against the table indifferently. "Brendan, you've been itching for a fight, haven't you? Let's not beat around the bush then. What exactly do you want? You'd better make yourself/clear tonight."

It was evident that he couldn't let go of his previous crush, and he didn't want to live a life with her. Yet he still found fault with her at every turn. In all honesty, Naomi found it quite amusing.

And his indifference to her tonight, as well as his nostalgia for Sophia while drinking with Maximus, suddenly seemed uninteresting to her.

No matter how hard she tried or how much she forgave him, Brendan didnt want to have children with Chapter 130ACHING her, and wouldn't spend the rest of his life with her.

So she didn't want to argue with him any longer. All she wanted was an answer from Brendan.

Naomi's indifference annoyed Brendan, who loosened his tie and sneered. "Have you found your next lover? Ready to move on?"

Naomi leaned lazily on the table. "I am? So, if you think you've got something on me tonight, do whatever you want."

Naomi let it all out and didn't bother explaining further. Infuriated, Brendan stomped over to grab her face, lifting her slightly. "Naomi, do you think I'm a patient man, that I'll coddle you?"

Naomi's stomach suddenly ached. She hadn't eaten much all day and hadn't even had a glass of water while visiting Charles' relatives and neighbors.

The dinner from earlier wasn't to her liking either, so she hadn't eaten much of it. That would explain why her stomach was aching.

She furrowed her brows and grabbed Brendan's arm. But she couldn't om conjure up any strength. Seeing her struggling, Brendan tightened his grip on her face, forcing her to look at him. "Speak."

Naomi chuckled. "What do you want to hear, Brendan?"

She added, "You? Patient with me? Coddle me? I can't possibly warrant such acts from you.

"I admit, I'm here to have an affair with Maximus. After all, I'm naturally outgoing. I even managed to seduce you. But didn't you already know this when I manipulated your father to marry you to me?"
