Chapter 392The spotlight shone on Naomi and Jack.Both of their delicate faces looked brighter and more stunning under the spotlight.This was the second time they danced, but they seemed to be perfect together.Their dance steps were light and graceful, making the people around them constantly amazed and praise them."They are such a good-looking couple! They look like a walking poster when they stand together!""They seem to be made for each other!"As Queenie stood in the corner with Naomi and Jack, she was so jealous that her eyes turned red.At that moment, a handsome man came up to her and extended his hand."Miss, may I...""Get away from me!"Queenie yelled at him. Her face looked grim.She felt that the only person worthy of dancing with her was Jacky.The other lowlifes would get her hands dirty!"How could you..."Then, the handsome man left in anger because Queenie suddenly scolded him.Queenie then took out her cell phone and quietly snapped many pictures
Chapter 393"It seems Jacky is really in love with Naomi. He wants to have a wedding with her now.""What?"Madam Hough's tone sounded shocked.Queenie deliberately added fuel to the fire. "It's true! Jacky only thinks of me as his sister. He even asked me to call Naomi sister-in-law today. I'm sorry, Madam Hough. I can't seem to keep an eye on them both."When Queenie got to the last sentence, she pretended to say it in an apologetic tone.On the other end of the line, Madam Hough reassured Queenie when she heard her say that."It's okay. You've done a great job. I thought Jacky had cared so much about you all these years because he liked you. I didn't think... I really can't see through my son."Hearing her words, Queenie had an ugly look on her face. Then, she impatiently interrupted Madam Hough."Madam Hough, what are you going to do?""Since it ends up like this, I will come back to Gin City tomorrow to persuade him!"In the Rolls Royce, Naomi said, "Jack, unbuckle your
Chapter 394Naomi reached out and gently slapped her face."Gee... I can't calm down!"The moment she glanced at the red wine on the liquor cabinet, she immediately walked over to it.A few minutes later, when Jack came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel, he smelled the strong aroma of red wine in the air.With a sharp gaze, he immediately saw Naomi, who was lying on the bed with an overly flushed face."You've been drinking?""I just had a couple of sips, but I don't know why I feel so hot..."Naomi then tugged at her neckline, revealing her pale skin.She fanned herself with her hand while avoiding Jack's eyes.And she couldn't even look at Jack because he thought she was too handsome. She thought he looked so fit that she was going to faint!And she found that his unintentional behaviors attracted her the most.Jack narrowed his deep eyes. The next second, he strode toward the bed.Jack had a powerful aura. Naomi felt the pressure even before Jack went near her.Sh
Chapter 395In the dark, Naomi stretched out her hand to press her chest and listened to her heartbeat which had not slowed down. ‘Did I just have a hallucinate?’ ‘Why did Mister Daddy's eyes suddenly turn red?’ After a few seconds, Jack's powerful arm gently hugged her. “Sleep, kid." "Hmm." Naomi turned over, facing Mister Daddy's face. In the dark, she could only vaguely see his outline. Looking at him quietly, Naomi sighed in her heart, ‘Are we moving too fast in our relationship? I haven’t adapted to the role of his wife yet.’ After a while, Naomi gradually fell asleep. At this time, Jack opened his dark eyes when she breathed smoothly. He tilted his head and looked at Naomi with a complicated gaze. "I'm sorry, kid." ‘I seem to be... a monster.’ Early the next morning, Naomi and Jack went to the hospital to pick up Old Mister Hough from the hospital. This was the last time that Old Mister Hough was hospitalized because the root of the disease had been
Chapter 396Jack even earnestly discussed with Old Mister Hough. "All the relatives are in Royal City, so it's too late to prepare for the big wedding. I think you two can have two weddings. The first wedding will be held in Gin City, and it’s the smaller one. The second wedding will be held in Royal City, and we can invite all relatives and friends." "Great! Do it as you said! The wedding in Gin City should be held as soon as possible! Let everyone know Naomi and you get married, and let them not talk nonsense! Don’t let Naomi feel aggrieved!" "I don't feel aggrieved..." Naomi hurriedly chimed in, but Jack and Old Mister Hough still discussed enthusiastically as if they didn't hear her words. "Let all the reporters in the city come to your wedding!" Old Mister Hough proposed. "Good idea." Jack nodded seriously. "It's not a good idea at all. Can't we keep a low profile?" Naomi suggested. Finally, feeling confused, Naomi watched them finish discussing the details of her
Chapter 397"Mister Daddy’s mother?" Naomi was confused. "Yes! She looked so powerful! " Janell lowered her voice and complained to Naomi. At the same time, the woman had already stood behind her. "Mind if I come in?" She was just asking, but her tone was imperious. ‘Sure enough, she is Mister Daddy’s mother, with the same personality.’ Naomi murmured in her heart, but she still had a smile on his face and made a gesture to show her agreement. "Janell, pour a cup of tea!" "No need. I'll leave soon after saying a few words." Madam Hough’s tone was neither hot nor cold. Naomi blinked and thought, ‘It seems that Madam Hough knows Mister Daddy and I will hold two weddings. So now I’m facing my mother-in-law before the wedding?’ Janell was in a bit of a dilemma and looked at Naomi for help. Naomi straightened her back and said in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant. "No matter how long you sit, we can't lose the courtesy." "Yes!" Janell immediately responde
Chapter 398"Except for being the president, my son also shoulders greater ideals and greater responsibilities! It's a common occurrence for him to go through life under fire and bullets. You should have seen the way he was seriously injured last time. He can't give you a peaceful life, so he's not suitable for you, not for ordinary people." Hearing Madam Hough's words, Naomi suddenly became rebellious. "Who says I want a peaceful life?" Naomi raised her eyebrows and showed a recalcitrant smile. "I am not an ordinary person, and last time I healed his serious injury. I'll save him no matter how badly he gets hurt. We're a perfect match!" Speaking of the last sentence, Naomi specially stressed it loudly. "You are very brave." A trace of untraceable compliment flashed in Madam Hough's eyes, but soon her eyes were filled with apathy and alienation. "But the Hough family is a large family, and many people want his position. What you did before has brought too many negative
Chapter 399"Because she really loves Jack." Madam Hough looked at the sign of Langdon outside the window with a complicated gaze and then sighed with regret. "If she were not Rachel's daughter, that would be great." "Madam Hough, let's go to Hough Corp!" Seeing that Madam Hough showed regret to Naomi, Queenie felt a little disgusted and interrupted Madam Hough impolitely. Then she stepped on the accelerator and left Langdon immediately. In the office, Jack was sitting at his desk, listening to Sean report on the progress of wedding preparations. "Basically all the details have been completed except for the guest invitation list. Most of the relatives are in Royal City and will attend the wedding held in Royal City, but your parents... How about..." At this time, Sean hesitated. Jack's long fingers were folded on his jaw, and he blinked with hesitation. He remembered how strongly his mother had objected to him being with Naomi. At this time, the gate was pushed op
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
