Boomerang Love

Brendan could tell that Peter was curious. He smiled. He interlocked his fingers with Naomi's and Introduced, "This is my wife."

Brendan was quite smug when he introduced Nooml as his wife.

Peter's eyes widened. "Mr. Ludwig, you're married!"

After he recovered from the initial shock, he looked at the couple and smiled. "Mrs. Ludwig is a charming and classy woman. You both look like a perfect match."

Immediately after, he added, "This is your first time bringing your missus to our restaurant for a meal. Please don't rush to foot the bill later, Mr. Ludwig. I've got to treat Mrs. Ludwig to today's meal."

Peter was a good businessman. He was overjoyed to have Brendan patronize his establishment. He never wanted Brendan to pay for his meals.

Even so, Brendan was not an exploiter. So, he had gone a step ahead and instructed Jason to pay up.

Brendan smiled in response to Peter's friendliness. He replied, "Sure thing, Mr. Dyer. On Naomi's behalf, thank you."

Peter replied, "No worries at all. It's my pleasure to welcome you and Mrs. Ludwig."

Naomi was walking next to Brendan. She looked up at him briefly.

Deep down, she couldn't help but feel gleeful to see this dominant persona of his. At this rate, pigs might really fly. He actually acknowledged her identity to someone else in public.

It felt as if he was a completely different person from the man who always said that he didn't know her over the past two years.

After they entered a private room, Peter brought their dishes to them personally. As Brendan served a portion of food to Naomi, he said, "Thanks to you, I won't have to fork out money today."

Naomi giggled. She joked casually, "See? Now you know that I command respect. You should butter me up more often next time."

Brendan stared at her. All of a sudden, he felt like they had returned to the time when they were still in school many years ago.

Naomi had a taste of the food. Then, she noticed that Brendan was staring at her. She chuckled. "Why are you staring at me? Aren't you going to eat?"

Brendan answered, "I'd rather eat you than eat lunch."

Naomi smiled. "Alright, alright/We won't be sleeping tonight then. I will satisfy you.

What kind of a man was he? They had just done it in the office. Why hadn't she realized that he was someone who couldn't keep it in his pants?

How did they even get through e past two years?Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Naomi had presented him with a challenge. He smiled and put more food on her plate.

They finished their meal around half an hour later. Before they left the restaurant, Brendan footed the bill without any hesitation.

If someone like him made a casual mention of this restaurant to others, Peter would be able to earn more than just this meal.

1. n. It was her A short while after, Brendan started the car once again. At the same time, Naomi's phone rang. It client again.

That was how it was like working as a lawyer. Their busier times weren when others were having their rest times. For instance, this was a client who was on their break at this time.

"Have you tried going the arbitration route, River? What did the company's HR say?

"They said that you can sue them all you want? Alright. Keep a copy of the contract and attendance record. We'll chat more when we meet."

She followed that with a few more pieces of advice for her client before hanging up.

Brendan had one hand on the wheel. He took a quick glance at Naomi and asked, "Would you like to join the Ludwig Corporation?"

Naomi looked dedicated when she was at work. Brendan thought that this was rather attractive.

He imagined how it would be like to have her join him for meetings. It would be quite fun to watch her m

express her opinions with a serious look on her face during those meetings.

As far as he could remember, Naomi was someone aloof and flippant. As such, he was quite interested in watching her being serious at work.
