She told Susan everything that happened and what Anna had said just now."What?! This woman is too disgusting! If Jack drank too much at the dinner party, wouldn't that be falling into her trap? Naomi, are you really going to let it go?""Of course not." Naomi spoke in a deep voice.She refused to let Anna beat her down.She thought about where to get an invitation card for Dave Dean’s dinner.At this time, her cell phone rang, and it was Lucy’s call."Naomi, where are you now? I have something to tell you.""Lucy, wait a moment, I need to get something done." Naomi interrupted Lucy and hurriedly said."Lucy, you are well-connected… Can you help me get an invitation to Dave's dinner party?""Ah, isn't this a coincidence…"Hearing that, Lucy burst out laughing through the phone. Naomi was at a loss."Lucy, what are you laughing at?""Do you remember the last time I asked you to see a doctor for my friend?""Well, I remember, it's a pregnant woman, the couple was very loving
Naomi was much taller than the average girl, so she could witness the scene from a distance away. "Come out! Come out!""Shannon! Shannon!"At this moment, a white figure appeared at the end of the road. The crowd became frantic.The man's facial features were exquisite. He had attractive and sharp eyebrows, and a face that was attractive on first sight. He seemed to carry a cool and calm aura about him.The fans turned quiet again.It seemed more appropriate to call his aura a "silent killer", as it seemed to have the effect of keeping others a distance from him!As he passed Naomi, he stopped and looked at her sideways. Naomi looked back."Plop! Plop!"Looking into the man's eyes, Naomi sensed a strange bond with this man. It was as if a voice was telling her that this man would be important in her life!In an instant, Naomi’s mind went blank. Everyone around her seemed to recede like a tide and she could only focus on him. They barely looked at each other for seconds, w
At the age of twenty-seven, he is exactly the same age as Mister Long Legs!Moreover, he is also from the Royal City with a mysterious identity…She only found out yesterday that Mister Long Legs was picked up by a car from the Royal City. Could it really be him? Or was this just a coincidence?At this time, the car sent by Lucy just arrived. Naomi didn't think further, waved goodbye to Susan, and went to Cezanne.In the evening, at the Dean family's mansion."Mr Dean, we have been speaking about this partnership for several months. Hough Corp is the strongest e-commerce company in Gin City. Our financial ability is second to none. It is only in your advantage to play nice with us. Can't you make a decision yet?"Anna was holding a wine glass proudly. Her confidence in her backing by Hough Corp gave her a domineering and arrogant tone. She was even arrogant enough to assume that all companies in Gin City begged to partner with Hough. She couldn’t understand why Jack would continu
The door of the hall opened gently. Naomi walked in slowly in the light and shadow.She was wearing a silver rhinestone fishtail dress, which was dazzling under the light, swaying in her steps.On the girl's fair-skinned face, she looked perfectly symmetrical and attractive, especially the pair of big watery eyes, which were stunning.She looked like an angel who just descended to earth. Everyone looked at her in unison, quietly admiring her, and couldn't bear to intrude or impose in her path.Naomi took a few steps and stopped in the center of the hall, her eyes wandering around, and Jack was seen in the crowd.Stinky Daddy always looked so good no matter where he went, he exuded such a powerful aura.Looking at each other, she straightened her spine and looked at him quietly.Jack’s heart surged slightly, his eyes narrowed, and then he strode towards Naomi.He towered over her, and she felt a sense of belonging.The two stood in one place, a beautiful scene of their own. Eve
Hearing this, Naomi immediately thought of the fierce scene where Jack had her pressed against the wall during the day.Her back is still aching now! Just thinking about it!Naomi coldly bared her teeth at Jack."I'm so sorry, I accepted the invitation as Doctor Green, but not as someone's wife, do I need to report to you?"As soon as she finished speaking, the man's handsome face suddenly turned gloomy with displeasure.Cut~ Who cares about him?!Naomi turned around and held Mrs Dean's hand affectionately."Sister Isabella, I'll help you take your pulse.""Really? That's a big thank you to Doctor Green!" Dave Dean immediately said gratefully. People around saw that Mr Dean was so intimate to Naomi, and they all came forward to chat.For a while, Naomi became the center of attention, and everyone turned around her.Anna stood by the side bleakly, like a joke."Brother Jack..."Anna turned to look at Jack, but found that the man was standing quietly beside Naomi. His usually
"Um..." Naomi looked embarrassed. She felt satisfied that Dave's words had just given Anna and that arrogant man a slap to the face. It was a long time since she'd seen Dave look so awesome. Now everyone was looking at her in unison, and Dave was giving her a questioning look. She had to say something. "That's because I admire Mr. Dean's stubborn temper! I heard that Mericah currently monopolizes 99% of the chip industry. We have lagged for many years in the industry. Mr. Dean, you gave up your high salary in Mericah and started from scratch when you returned, then only did we have the chance to chip away a huge portion of the market from them!" Dave's eyes widened when he heard that, and his face was shocked. "I didn't expect Doctor Green to be so knowledgeable! This is something that only the people in our professional field know about!" "Nah. I occasionally pay attention to the global chip industry." Naomi embarrassedly arranged her hair. As a top
It shouldn't be like this! "Mr. Dean, Hough Corp will support the development of the chip regardless of the cost. I hope we can cooperate happily!" Jack shook hands with Dave in high spirits, looking at Naomi's frustrated face. The corners of his mouth twitched amusedly. "Mr. Hough, you have Doctor Naomi to thank for the successful collaboration!" Mrs. Dean added with a smile. "Mrs. Dean is right." Jack's face twitched, looking at Naomi meaningfully, speaking word by word."I will definitely thank you very much, my good wife~." He was obviously laughing at Naomi. Good wife, my foot! Naomi stared at his face and clenched her fists. He had to be lucky to prevail even though she had tried her best to thwart the collaboration! However, Anna was even more dumbfounded than Naomi was. What in the world? She spent half a year of hard work and failed to win the project, but Naomi did it in minutes? What a joke! Naomi and Dave must have colluded in p
Anna's mouth twitched maliciously. "Do you know who the woman hugging Jack was at the airport today?" Naomi's face fell when she heard this, Anna smiled viciously. "She is Queenie, the person Jack loves the most! Naomi, your contract with Jack is about to expire, isn't it? Hahahaha, your relationship with him would never work!" Naomi fired back at her. "I'll return that insult to you! You're dressed so flamboyantly, but still, he doesn't notice you. You are the one who will lose his attention when Queenie returns!" "You little-" Anna's face turned beetroot red in an instant. "What's wrong?" Naomi made a face at Anna. Anna, a woman near her thirties, couldn't retaliate by making faces at Anna. Ultimately, she could only stomp her feet angrily and walk away. "Finally!" Naomi breathed a sigh of relief as the music and excitement in the hall continued, What Anna just said made her somewhat upset. Naomi glanced at the terrace outside the door and im
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
