My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 1129

Naomi nodded vaguely as she replied, "Um, yes!"

Culver said, "That's good!"

Naomi was puzzled for a moment. "What?" she asked.

"She respects you a lot. It's a good sign!"

It turned out that he had not discovered her identity yet.

Naomi let out a sigh of relief. At the moment, she didn't want Culver to know who she was. Her identity

as a member of the Granger family was too troublesome.

Although it could bring her a lot of benefits, at the same time, she would also lose a lot as well.

Naomi gave a suggestion by saying, "Well, are you hungry? I can cook for you!"

She said so because she thought that Culver would take her mobile phone away again since he had

followed her out. She did not want to give her phone back to Culver again.

Therefore, she decided to change the subject.

Culver shook his head and extended his hand towards Naomi.

Naomi couldn't help but curse in her heart, "You pervert! You're taking other people's property! This is

illegal!"

Meanwhile, in reality, she handed the mobile phone to him timidly.

She could not do anything else as she had learned her lesson based on her past experiences.

Unexpectedly, Culver did not take her mobile phone. Instead, he held her wrist.

"I've heard that there are a lot of interesting places in Rosaville City. Can you take me there?"

Naomi was nonplussed. She thought that Culver was just joking with her.

"Don't worry, I won't run away. You don't have to purposely feel me out to see if I will do anything

dangerous."

Culver looked at her and said solemnly, "I'm serious. It's seldom for me to visit Rosaville City. Why don't

you be my guide?"

Naomi was convinced that he really wanted to go, therefore she agreed instantly, "Okay!"

In fact, she thought it was a good idea to hang out rather than stay inside with Culver.

He was a pervert. What if he did something bad to Naomi while they were staying together? If so, she

would be at huge risk.

People said that a wise person would not fight when the odds were against him. Although she was not

the brightest person, she knew such a theory.

Hence, she took Culver out that afternoon.

Rosaville City was an old city with a long history. Strictly speaking, there weren't any places that were

particularly intriguing for the younger generation.

Naomi thought for a while before she decided to take him for a half-day trip to Rosaville City's Old

Town.

She started their trip at Old Town, which was the older part of Rosaville City, but she seemed a bit

preoccupied along the way. She perfunctorily complied with his whims so that he wouldn't get upset

and get her into trouble again.

To her surprise, there were actually quite a number of tourists around.

She simply pointed at an alley and said, "Let's go there!"

Along the way, the two of them did not speak much.

They just walked one after another. Soon, Culver expressed his boredom and displeasure.

"Aren't you my tour guide? You should at least introduce this place to me."

She was stumped by his request.

She became speechless for a moment.

However, she had never been there either, so she wasn't able to introduce it to him!

Culver was in a good mood, a rare sight. Thus, she was hoping that she could grab this chance to

wheedle him into helping her company.

In order to achieve that, she had no choice but to compromise.

Consequently, she made up tall tales of the part of the city they were in and Rosaville City.

Culver naturally could tell that she was making things up. Originally, he was about to fly into a rage.

However, when he raised his head inadvertently, he saw Naomi's sly smile. Therefore, he changed his

mind and let her do as she pleased.

After walking around the alley for a while, Naomi grew thirsty because she kept introducing the places

to Culver. On the contrary, Culver seemed unruffled.

In the end, Naomi stopped and said, "I'm too tired, I can't walk anymore! I need water! I want to rest!"

Culver quirked his eyebrows and cast a sidelong glance at her.

Naomi's heart skipped a beat, thinking that she had messed things up. If he was provoked at that

moment, then her efforts in making up stories would all be in vain.

Just as she was about to apologize, Culver opened his mouth.

He said, "What do you want to drink?"

Naomi was bemused.

She wondered if she had misheard him.

"What do you want to drink?" repeated Culver. Only then did Naomi come back to her senses and

answer, "There's no need to buy me a drink. I'm just joking. I'm not thirsty!"

"Really? It's not good to lie!"

When Culver said those words, the corners of his lips curled into an impish smile. He was probably

also tired, hence his voice grew husky. Every expression he made was alluring.

Naomi would have fallen in love with him if it weren't for the fact that she knew that he was a pervert.

She quickly banished all those weird thoughts from her mind.

After that, she turned her head away and said, "Mineral water is fine for me."

When she finished speaking, Culver had already turned around. After taking two steps, he returned and

placed his hands on Naomi's shoulders, making her sit on the stone bench next to them.

"Sit here, stay put and don't go anywhere. Wait for me!"

His masculine tone immediately attracted the attention of several couples nearby.

"Are they filming a movie? How can he be so handsome?"

"I don't think so. I don't see any cameras or staff around here."

"Yeah, I agree with you. If this is a movie, then that leading actress looks way too average. She doesn't

look pretty, nor does she have a nice figure. He's totally out of her league!"

Naomi was lost for words.

Their behaviour of fawning over Culver really befuddled her.

Fortunately, she was strong and wouldn't argue with fools.

Culver had not come back even after a long time.

The sun climbed higher in the sky. Sitting outside in the sun, she wondered whether she should leave

the bench or not.

As she was silently cursing Culver in her heart, she heard exclamations of amazement again.

"Oh my god, I'm in love with this man!" "He's so stunning!"

Naomi paused for a moment. She didn't have to look back to know the situation. Doubtlessly, it must be

Culver returning.

Just as she was thinking that hanging out with someone good- looking would cause so much trouble, a

bottle of water was handed over to Naomi.

Following behind him was a group of people, each of whom were holding a bottle of water.

Naomi was dumbfounded.

She had no idea what was going on.

Culver said proudly, "I couldn't find the brand that I usually drink, and I didn't know which one you liked,

so I asked them to bring over every brand of mineral water that they have!"

Naomi couldn't understand his way of doing things.

Did he need to show off his wealth in such a way?

"In fact, they are all the same. There is no need for that!"

Culver shook his head and said, "No, they're different! Every brand has a different type of mineral in

them. For example, just like the one I drink on a daily basis, it..."

Naomi was at a loss for words.

Seeing that, those staff members began to promote their products.

In the end, she simply chose one of the bottles. When she saw the stack of money that Culver was

going to pay, she was astonished.

She pulled the money back and stood in front of Culver.

The saleswoman disagreed with her, "Well, we provided a door-to-door service and came all the way

here. What's wrong with a little service tax? Besides, he's willing to pay for it, so what's your problem?"

Only then did the saleswoman take the money and leave.

Naomi was still vexed as she held the bottle in her hand tightly. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

"Are you stupid? Thirteen dollars for a bottle of mineral water? That's ridiculous! I know you're rich, but

you can't be so prodigal. Save some money for your future so that you can treat your wife well!"

After complaining, she unscrewed the bottle cap and drank most of the water.

Naomi reckoned she had to finish the entire bottle, so that the money she had spent on it would not be

wasted.

Culver could not help but laugh when he saw how parsimonious she was.

Most of the girls he knew were living a thriftless and improvident lifestyle. He had never seen such a

penny-pinching girl, who was so level-headed and adorable!
