Chapter 310Fortunately, Cayden showed up in front of her.He looks casual and condescending. He stared at Naomi with arrogant eyes."B*tch, you want to know Scott's whereabouts, don't you?"Cayden thought he had what Naomi wanted most, so he made an offer without fear."I'll tell you Scott's whereabouts if you write a promise to tell the court that you won't sue me and give me half of Langdon's shares!""You're so shameless!"Zach cursed in anger when he heard Cayden's words.If it wasn't for the glass wall between them, he would have rushed in and beat Cayden to death!"That's how shameless I am! What can you do to me? Ha ha ha ha ha!"When Cayden saw Zach's angry and stoic look, he laughed even harder and more arrogantly.Cayden looked too conceited!And Naomi's face was expressionless."So my dad is still alive. Do you still know my dad's whereabouts?"Naomi suddenly leaned forward and narrowed her eyes on Cayden.She was like a cheetah staring at its prey. She looke
Chapter 311 In the VIP room of the hospital, Jack picked up a bowl of medicine and handed it to Queenie."Drink it. It's good for your body.""This medicine is so bitter. I don't want to drink it."Queenie leaned against the bed and pouted at Jack in a soft voice. She looked at Jack with an affectionate look in her eyes."Stop it."Although Jack said the words in an intimidating tone, his tone sounded gentle and not reproachful at all, because Queenie was the one who saved his life ten years ago and saved his soul from the darkness.He didn't want to be harsh to her."Then will you feed me?"Queenie narrowed her eyes and deliberately leaned towards Jack and said in a petulant tone, "How about you feed me?"Jack stared at the bowl with a hesitant look in his eyes.He had always resisted intimate contact with others.Despite the look of disappointment on her face, Queenie deliberately said in a thoughtful tone, "Forget it...""I know it's hard for you to do it. Just give
Chapter 312 Turned out it was just a coincidence, and Naomi should be thanking Queenie for it. "Why are you here with the ambulance?" Noticing the sullen look on Naomi's face, Jack asked gently. "I..." Before Naomi could answer him, the door to the operating room opened, and the doctor stepped out of it. Naomi hurried up to him. "Doctor, how's Cayden doing?" "I'm sorry." The doctor replied regretfully, "He was acutely poisoned. We couldn't resuscitate him." "What?" Naomi was stunned and fell straight backwards. Luckily, Jack kept an eye on her. He quickly caught her and held her in his arms. "What's going on?" Jack turned to the officer standing beside him with a stern look. The officer was shocked and shrunk his neck. "I'm sorry. This is a dereliction of duty on our part. We will definitely look into this matter and give you an explanation!" The officer looked at Naomi with a guilty look. "When Miss Naomi was visiting Cayden, she witnessed Cayden having t
Chapter 313"Miss Miles, I'll take your temperature." The nurse turned to Queenie with the thermometer. Immediately, Queenie put the knife behind her back and gave the nurse a gentle smile. "Did you hear something when you were at the door just now?" "What? What did you say?" The nurse looked at Queenie in confusion. Seeing the nurse's reaction, Queenie quietly dropped the knife on the table behind her. She deliberately put on a shy look. "It's nothing. I was just on the phone with my boyfriend…" "Wow!" The nurse believed Queenie’s words and teased, "Such a shame. I should have listened carefully." "Thank God! You didn't hear it." Queenie spat her tongue out mischievously. 'Otherwise, you will be dead!' Who could imagine that beneath her innocent and kind face, she hid a vicious heart? "Come! Let me take your temperature." The nurse handed the thermometer to Queenie. "No need for that. I'm fine. I'm ready to go home today." Queenie pushed the nurse'
Chapter 314 Naomi was surprised to see Jack being so gentle and attentive, but she felt warm inside. She said shyly, "I can take it myself." "Your hands are shaking." Jack frowned as he held up the spoon. He wouldn't give her the bowl. Naomi couldn't argue with him. She meekly opened her mouth. Sean was standing in the doorway. He showed a smile at this scene. 'How warm and sweet it is!' He even imagined the two getting married and having babies. He looked forward to that day. After finishing the soup, Naomi's face reddened a little. Just then, the psychiatrist came into the room and gave Naomi some basic examinations and inquiries. It seemed that the scene of Cayden before he died didn't leave many shadows in Naomi’s heart."I'm really fine. I'm a doctor myself. I've seen too many scary scenes in hospitals." Naomi turned to Jack and reassured him.She just regretted as she didn't see Cayden in time, the person behind the scenes murder him! "Is she real
Chapter 315"The cemetery never received Mrs. Green's ashes." 'No ashes?' Naomi's pupils suddenly shrank. She vaguely sensed the incident wasn't so simple! Even if it was a plane crash, the captain managed to land the plane, so her mother's remains couldn't have been lost. However, not only could Naomi not find the file of the accident or find her mother's ashes! At that moment, Naomi remembered what Cayden had said before he died. "Do you think that your mother was a normal person?" Maybe her mother's death wasn't a plane crash after all! A gust of wind blew, and Naomi shuddered. She vaguely felt that behind today’s incident, a huge net was closing in toward her. Jack's deep eyes also sparkled a mysterious glimmer. He sensed something unusual about Naomi's mother’s accident. Maybe it was time for him to step in and give Naomi a hand. "Your mother's case is strange. I promise you that I will use all my connections and help you to find the truth!" "Th
Chapter 316 Naomi returned to the Green Residence. She closed the gate and immediately started looking for "the hidden compartment". She searched all the rooms, even the gazebo in the garden, but she couldn't find it. Finally, she found a safe in her father's study. "Could it be in the safe?" Naomi muttered as she leaned over the safe and turned the gears to try to open it. Click-- The safe was finally opened, and she found a delicate wooden box inside, but the box was also locked. Naomi picked up the box and sniffled it. It smelled faintly of incense. The wooden box had exquisite carvings on it. It looked mysterious.'Is it the hidden compartment that Cayden mentioned?’ 'How do I open it?' She searched the entire study, but she couldn't find the key.Naomi was so anxious that she wanted to smash the box! But she was afraid of destroying the contents in the box. Eventually, she snapped to attention the shape of the lock hole. "Uh... Why does it look s
Chapter 317Naomi's fingers swirled on the desk, and she rolled her eyes slyly. 'Instead of sitting here protecting the data, I'm going to see who wants it.' She was determined to find the person who plotted against Hough Corp. "Nine, tell them I'm interested in the deal. I want to talk to them." "You want to talk to them? Do you have a heart? I'm your agent! You don't want to pay me?" On the phone, Nine complained deliberately. Naomi rolled her eyes, "Stop it! You should know me very well." "Fine! But you have to be careful. They have a background. Don't be tricked by them." Nine became serious. He then sent Naomi the client's contact information. "I know. I've been in the business for years. Don't worry." Naomi put on her Bluetooth earphones to keep chatting with Nine while texting the client. [You guys want me to get the data for you?] With the message, she edited a Trojan tracking virus in it. As long as someone replied to her message, she could track
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
