Boomerang Love

Naomi woke herself out of her stupor. She smiled and sat down. "Mr. Ludwig, you're very generous.

Brendan sat down alongside her, but his eyebrows furrowed as he took a sharp breath.

Naomi glanced at him with disdain in his eyes. If he couldn't handle his alcohol, he shouldn't have tried to act tough. Who was he showing off for?

Brendan gritted his teeth at Naomi's disdainful expression. "Aren't you going to get me some food?"

Upon seeing the situation they were in, Michael reminded Naomi with a smile, "Naomi, Mr. Ludwig drank a lot in one go. Get him some food."

Naomi couldn't embarrass him with so many people around. She reached out her hand to throw some lettuce onto his plate.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

After Brendan drained his glass, everyone began chatting uninhibitedly again.

Brendan talked to them intermittently. However, his attention was focused entirely on Naomi.

While Chloe sat beside Jason, her eyes never left Brendan and Naomi.

Brendan cared for Naomi. Hence, he purposely drank that glass of wine to make people suspicious of his relationship with Naomi. This would discourage them from introducing other men to her.

Chloe had known Brendan for many years, but she had never seen anyone who warranted this kind of treatment from him. Even Reuben didn't get that kind of treatment.

Chloe felt jealous.

She was jealous of Naomi, who could marry Brendan. She was also jealous that Brendan cared about Naomi.

After Naomi finished her dinner, she snacked on some nuts while-listening to everyone around her talk. However, she suddenly felt a palm on her thigh beneath the table.

Naomi turned to her right to look at Brendan. He was talking as though nothing was going on, but he was teasing her beneath the table.

Her expression changed, and she threw the shells of the nuts into his face.

As Brendan saw the shells flying toward him, he rubbed a finger on her multiple times. He turned and asked her softly, "Aren't you usually pretty fiery?"

As he finished speaking, his hands crept toward her.

Naomi continued to munch on her nuts. That was why he wanted to pull her chair closer. This was his intention.

Once Brendan stuck a hand into her skirt, Naomi raised her right leg and stomped on his foot with her heel.

If she had known about today's dinner and that he would do something as dirty as this, she wouldn't have worn a skirt so he could take advantage of her.

Brendan inhaled in pain after she stepped on him.

However, he didn't let go of her. His fingers slid toward the base of her thigh and whispered, "Naomi, I'm right in front of you. Yet you dare to say you're single?"

Naomi stuck her right hand beneath the table and held his wrist. "Then why don't you stand up and tell everyone I'm your wife?"

Brendan didn't move his hand away.

But Naomi couldn't be bothered to continue pushing him away. She grabbed him directly where it mattered most.

Brendan's face paled within a second.

Naomi's left hand continued scrolling through her phone as though nothing had happened.

As Brendan glared at her, she raised an eyebrow at him.

Chloe was watching them from nearby. Although she didn't see exactly what they were doing, she could guess they were fighting silently.

Brendan only showed that expression and smile in front of Naomi.

While Naomi was gloating, Brendan let go. He put his left foot on her chair and pulled her closer to him.

While Naomi took another handful of nuts, she noticed Chloe's teary eyes looking at them pitifully. She said carelessly, "Your little slut is unhappy."
