As Naomi listened to Anna's words, her expression became flatter and flatter. Finally, she lowered her head, her eyes filled with strong guilt.When Anna saw this, the corners of her mouth curled up from the joy of revenge. She pretended to be a good person to comfort Naomi. "Miss Naomi, maybe it's just me worrying about nothing. The death of Miss Queenie's mother has nothing to do with you, so don't take it to heart."Although Anna said a positive sentence, she actually used psychological tactics to continue brainwashing Naomi.It made Naomi feel that the dead woman was indeed Queenie's mother and that Queenie had missed her biological mother because of Naomi."No, it's because of me." Naomi let out a long sigh, and she fell into confusion.Looking at Naomi be like a puppet with a lost soul, Anna happily curled her lips and spoke condescendingly, "Okay, Miss Naomi, it's time for you to go." "Understood," Naomi answered absentmindedly, and she followed Anna out.The two of t
Clarissa was the one calling."Your Plan B is useless! It failed!" As soon as the call was connected, Clarissa started complaining.That infuriated Anna, "My plan is perfect. Who'd thought Robin would show up out of nowhere.""I don't care!" Clarissa was being impatient over the phone. "The old plan failed. You must think of a new plan for me!""Watch your attitude! I'm helping you. What gives you the right to command me?" Anna's head hurt a lot because of Clarissa. She really should not have chosen to work with Clarissa, that idiot.Clarissa sneered, "You are using me to attack, what kind of attitude do you expect from me? I have no idea who you are but I know you hate Naomi just like me. So I'm willing to listen to your advice. You better hurry up!""Alright!" Suppressing her anger, Anna continued to think of a plan. "For the next step, you should…"After Anna finished with her plan, Clarissa laughed out loud as she was very satisfied. "Good, good, good. This plan is perfect.
"You want to eat?""Absolutely! Lubba Pump has the best shrimp in town!" Without turning her head, Naomi quickly gave her honest opinion. Only after she finished talking, did she realize that it was Mister Daddy asking her. Then she remembered the experience of eating Creek's Barbecue with him and withdrew her eyes mournfully."Forget about it. Let's go back." That was her brain talking, and at the same time, her stomach was growling too.Looking at how unhappy Naomi was, Jack frowned. 'Just because I know what she likes and what food she likes to eat!' Suddenly, his mind appeared to be thinking of what his cheapskate nephew said.Subsequently, he said, "Sean, let's go there.""What? You really want to eat it?" Naomi was so shocked by his decision that she widened her eyes.A few minutes later, Jack was sitting together with Naomi on the dirty plastic chairs while wearing an expensive bespoke suit in the outdoor diner. There were cars passing by and people were wearing very casu
"Mister Daddy, what are you doing?" Naomi sat up straight and watched Jack walk up to the stage.He sat down in front of the electronic organ like Prince Charming. Under the white-washed light, he glowed. He focused his attention solely on Naomi as he curled his lips, "Listen carefully, kid."Subconsciously, Naomi pressed her chest and held her breath for no reason. Everyone in the diner was attracted to him. Slowly, he started playing the electronic organ with his fingers. The song that he played was Nothing Is Better Than You.The sky started to drizzle and no one made a sound to disrupt Jack's performance or was willing to leave now. Suddenly, Jack tilted his head a little during the performance. That unplanned movement pushed the atmosphere in the diner to a climax.Every girl in the diner took a deep breath as they were mesmerized by how handsome Jack was. Through the microphone, the low and soft notes from the electronic organ were broadcasted deep into Naomi's heart.Even t
When Naomi was about to go to the room, she suddenly noticed Jack's face was turning red from his whole face to his neck."Mister Daddy! What happened to your face? Let me see it!" Then, she grabbed Jack's hand to have a look. It turned out his wrist was also red with rashes all over it."Oh god! This…" Without any further delay, Naomi quickly checked Jack's condition. Suddenly, she remembered the information Sean gave her. Her eyes widened. "You're allergic to chili, aren't you?""Miss Naomi, that's what I tried to remind you but Sir didn't allow me!" Sean finally burst out the truth after keeping it since the diner."Why are you so silly?" Naomi's eyes got teary and her heart was being squeezed tightly by an invisible hand. She felt so touched and sorry that Jack had such a strong allergic reaction just because she wanted to eat shrimp. 'Stinky Daddy! No, silly guy!'"It's just a normal allergic reaction. Don't worry." Jack's heart melted as he saw how sad Naomi was with her tea
'Mister Daddy has such a gorgeous body!' Naomi thought."Are you satisfied?" Without a choice, Jack just opened up his shirt and looked at Naomi with a playful smile on his face."Oh yes!" Naomi stared at the abs and answered without thinking much. When she finally realized what happened, she felt shy and her cheeks turned rosy. However, she tried to stay calm to rectify the mistake she did."No, I mean…I'm a professional doctor. Don't try to seduce me!" After that, she cleared her throat and pulled a straight face. As she dug out some ointment with her finger, she applied it to Jack's firm chest.At first, Jack felt the chilling ointment on his chest. As Naomi slowly spread it across his chest, he felt something was wrong even if what Naomi did was just a normal thing. His eyes started to get deeper following Naomi's movement.There seemed to be fireballs colliding with each other in the air while creating sparks everywhere. When Naomi was about to apply the ointment to Jack's ab
Jack felt slightly embarrassed by what Sean said. "I don't need you. You can leave.""Er…" At that moment, Sean looked awkward. How could he forget that Jack had always disliked physical contact with another person? He blamed Jack for being so close with Miss Naomi lately that he nearly forgot the original characteristics of Jack."Why are you still standing there?" Jack glared at Sean as Sean did not leave."I'm leaving now. Oh yes, Sir. There's something I would like to say." Sean turned around and looked back again as he remembered something."What?" Jack asked."You are too hypocritical!" After that, Sean didn't stop and tried to run away. Too bad…before he could reach the door, he heard a cold voice talking from his back."Come right back here!" Jack ordered.Sean shrugged his shoulder and turned his stiff body around as he looked at Jack embarrassingly. He thought he was about to receive fire from Jack. Nevertheless, Jack asked with a complicated look on his face, "Have yo
"He is dead?" Naomi asked while pressing onto her chest. It was quite shocking news to her to hear two people die within a day."Yes. When the police found him, they discovered that he committed suicide in his house," Susan explained."No, it's impossible. There's no way he would commit suicide!" Naomi said resolutely.It was very simple. A stranger would not have attempted to murder her unless he had received a huge sum of money to do the job. How would someone who would rather take the risk in exchange for money suddenly decide to commit suicide?"I think it is most likely that he was killed. Have you found out who was behind him?" Naomi asked."I did find out that this guy had received a huge sum of money two days ago. But the person who transferred the money to the bank account is anonymous. I think it must be Clarissa! It's not the first time she did something like this!" Susan analyzed the case on the phone.However, Naomi frowned and vaguely felt something did not add up.
Chapter 473"Of course not!" Naomi shook her head and answered firmly. "I'm a doctor. Trust me. I will cure you!" Naomi then reached out to smooth Jack's furrowed brows. "Don't think about those horrible things. It's all in the past." "All right," Jack said as he grabbed Naomi's soft hand and rubbed it in his palm. The anger and fear in Jack's heart faded at a glimpse of Naomi. Jack's face eased up. He went on peacefully, "Luckily, then I met a girl. She saved me." "I see." Naomi responded, jealousy in her heart. ‘Obviously, that girl was Queenie. ‘Speaking of Queenie, Mister Daddy becomes so tender. ‘All right! Queenie will always be your angel!' Naomi got angry when she remembered what Queenie and Jack's mother had done to her at the wedding. ‘But Mister Daddy trusts Queenie so much, and Mrs. Hough is his mother. Whose side will Stinky Daddy be on if conflict breaks out among us in the future?' Naomi hung her head down. She had little confidenc
Chapter 472 Sean was speechless. He scratched his hair. Professor Gregory sighed. He stood up and turned to go. "Maybe there is going to be another storm."It was cold at night.Naomi sat on the steps by the fountain at the Base. She clutched her legs in her arms. Jack draped his jacket over her shoulders. "It's cold." "You're the patient. You need it more than I do." Naomi wanted to take the jacket off, but Jack stopped her and took her into his arms. "I'm all healed up." "Really?" Naomi looked at him suspiciously. Then Jack grabbed Naomi's hand and slipped it under his shirt. Touching his hot skin, immediately, Naomi blushed. "What are you doing? We're in a public place..." "I'm just letting you check me out." Jack replied calmly, innocence in his eyes. "All right," Naomi felt extremely embarrassed. She felt ashamed of her thoughts. Jack raised his eyebrows. He sensed her embarrassment. He deliberately leaned in and teased, "You want to d
Chapter 471Jack's eyes showed a glint of embarrassment, which meant he admitted it. "Sean said you couldn’t sleep well. I remember you always had to hold something while you slept..." He wanted to say that Naomi had to hold him to sleep well, but he swallowed it. Naomi's eyes twinkled. Immediately, she felt something pinch her heart hard. "Since you don't like it, give it back to me.” Jack was about to take the doll away. "No! You gave it to me. How can you take it back?" Naomi hid the doll behind her back. Just as Naomi was grabbing the doll, suddenly Jack opened his arms and took both her and the doll tightly in his arms. Jack's unique and fresh scent immediately enveloped her. Falling into the familiar embrace, Naomi instantly got emotional. Her eyes welled up with tears. She quietly leaned into his arms, enjoying the moment. Jack held her tighter as if he was afraid she would run away again. He wanted to take it slow, but he couldn't hold it anymo
Chapter 470 A worried look flashed across Jack's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He averted his eyes. It was silent. Naomi's lips quivered. So many words were on the tip of her tongue, but she couldn't get them out. "Uh... Are all your wounds healed?" "Yes." Jack replied indifferently. He sounded aloof. Naomi looked up at him, but he didn't look at her. Naomi didn’t know how much effort Jack had used to refrain from looking at her. But still, he sneaked a peek at her out of the corner of his eye. Naomi nervously gripped the doll with her fingers. She was looking for anything to say to Jack. ‘The doll... Right! ' Naomi immediately held up the doll and asked, "Did you give me this doll and the fruit that appeared on my windowsill these days?" "No." Jack bluntly answered. Jack remembered that Sean had told him earlier that anything Jack sent to Naomi, she would throw it away. ‘But Naomi can't sleep well if she doesn't have a doll to cudd
Chapter 469"Shooting the ninth ring will pass. My master shot the bull’s eye. Why didn't he pass?" Paulo questioned angrily. Robin also sneered at Jack, "Mr. Hough, you're not finding fault with Naom, are you?" Snap! Jack closed the folder abruptly, and everyone was shocked. The range fell silent! Jack looked Naomi steadily in the eye and replied calmly, "Your elbow is in the wrong place. You're shooting impulsively. And your breathing is not steady." Naomi blushed and lowered her eyes in embarrassment. Then Jack's low voice rang out above her head. "If you want to join the National Security Bureau, you have to do your best!" Immediately, Naomi's eyes flickered. She looked up at Jack. ‘Mister Daddy knows what I’m up to?' Their eyes met, and the look in Jack's eyes reassured her. "You're not good enough." "You're not fair." Saif spoke up angrily for Naomi. "In my opinion, it's you..." "Saif!" Naomi stopped Saif. The anger was gone from her face, a
Chapter 468 "I'm sorry." "It's okay. Your nerves are too tight these days. You should relax a bit." Robin showed a worried look in his eyes. He handed Naomi a bottle. "I made the tea. It helps you calm down. Try it." "Have you had lunch, Master? Have a piece of cake!" Paulo handed Naomi a piece of cake, and Saif took out a handkerchief to wipe Naomi's sweat. For a moment, Naomi felt warmed by the concern of so many people. "Thank you all." "It’s OK. We are a team!" "Yeah, we're a team!" The four then burst out laughing at the same time. Not far away, Jack cast his eyes on Naomi. Seeing Naomi so close to the other three, he felt jealous. He got angry and clenched the pencil in his hand so hard that it broke into two! "The pencil broke?" Lily asked in surprise. Jack's face didn't change color. He picked up another pencil."The quality of the pencil is too bad."The test began. Everyone on each team had to hit the ninth ring, or the team‘’s score wo
Chapter 467Snap-- Just after Sean finished, the banana in Naomi's hand hit the ground. It rolled a few inches and stopped next to the trash can. Naomi felt like she was drenched by a bucket of ice water. She immediately came to her senses. Naomi was like a drowned rat, so frustrated and pathetic. Sean resisted the urge to tell her the truth and told Naomi to leave. "Miss Naomi, excuse me." "I'm sorry." Naomi turned in dismay. She walked aimlessly forward like a ghost. ‘I should forget about him, but why does my heart hurt so much?' "Naom!" Saif ran towards Naomi from not far away and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? Your face looks awful. Do you want to go to the doctor?" "No, I'm fine, really!" Naomi shook her head. "Should I take you back to the dormitory to rest a bit? There's still some time before the shooting test." Saif reached out to help Naomi, but once again Naomi refused, "We should go straight to the range." Half of the trai
Chapter 466 "If they end up breaking up, I'm screwed!" "Don't worry!" Professor Gregory patted Sean's shoulder. "It took me only a month to win your mom’s heart. I know women. Trust me! You won't regret it!" "OK. I trust you!" Sean scratched his hair. Then he went to report to Jack with suspicion in his heart. As soon as Sean got into Jack’s room, he immediately put on a timid face. "Sir, Mrs. Hough didn't take anything you asked me to send to her. She said..." "What did she say?" "She said she hates you and that she never wanted to see you again!" Sean made it up deliberately. He was tense inside. Jack, who was lying in bed, showed a gloomy look in his deep eyes. Sean panicked and hurriedly asked, "Should I send her the stuff again?" "Yes. But you need to do it secretly." Jack replied without hesitation. "Don't let her know it's me." "Then what's the point of that?" Sean wondered. "I just want her to be happy." Jack dropped his eyes, and hi
Chapter 465“Okay.”Naomi’s tone was rather calm, as if it had nothing to do with her.In fact, she was totally stunned. But since things had become like this, there was nothing she could do to change the past. Sean widened his eyes and looked at Naomi in disbelief."That's your answer?"Naomi looked away, bypassed Sean and went away."I got to go."After saying that, she left like a ghost.Sean’s heart sank and he heavily sighed."Mrs. Hough doesn't want to be with Mr. Hough anymore. It’s doomed!”"Don’t talk nonsense!”Professor Gregory just returned back to the operating room. He stared at Naomi's back and said with a meaningful smile, "The two of them will get back together!” "How can that be? Didn't you see Miss Naomi's reaction?” Sean retorted.However, Professor Gregory answered like an experienced man, "Haven't you ever heard that one can make the best out of a bad situation?”......Naomi went back to the dormitory and closed her eyes after lying on the be
