Boomerang Love (Naomi and Brendan)

Chapter 226

After Brendan apologized, Naomi remained silent for a long time. He looked down and saw she had already snuggled up in his arms and fallen asleep.

Brendan sighed to himself. He swore he never met someone as unfazed as Naomi.

The next morning, when the two woke up, everything went back to normal. It was as if Naomi hadn't had

that dream or gone to the study alone, and Brendan didn't recall the past either.

Brendan was by the wardrobe when Naomi came out of the bathroom. "Come over and help me with my

tie."

Naomi teased, "Will I get a tip?"

Brendan pulled her into his embrace. "Yes."

After being pulled into Brendan's arms, Naomi looked up at him. Seeing his heated gaze, she smirked and helped him with the tie.

Six years ago, when Brendan had just joined the company, Naomi had learned how to tie a tie back then.

But she only helped him with it a few times before they fell out, so she was a bit rusty now.

Naomi tied the tie with extreme focus. The ring on her finger shone brightly, but she didn't pay too much

attention to it.

After fiddling awhile and finally tying the tie, Naomi straightened Brendan's clothes. "You can head

work now, Mr. Ludwig."

Brendan lifted her chin and leaned down to kiss her.

Naomi furrowed her brows: "Is this my tip? You have no shame, Brendan."

Brendan chuckled. "Are you done? I'll give you a ride."

In the following days, the two continued as if nothing happened, and everything returned to normal. After Naomi finished work, she would hang out with Bailey and Ronald. One evening, when the three of them were having dinner together, Bailey seemed gloomy and wore a

constant frown. She stirred the juice in her cup with a worried look.

Seeing this, Naomi asked, "I can see you're upset. Did you fight with Estelle and Pauline?"

Bailey tugged at her short hair and didn't know where to begin. "No."

Since Naomi dealt with Estelle and Pauline, they had become much nicer. Although they still had some attitude toward Bailey, she could tell they were toning it down. Moreover, Bailey hadn't gone home lately, so her days were quite peaceful.

Seeing Bailey deep in thought, Ronald chirped, "Bailey, you can talk to us. We're best friends."

Bailey grew even more embarrassed at this. After a while, she sighed, "My dad said he found me a marriage candidate."

Before either of them could react, Bailey continued, "You know me. I never once thought about marriage,

Although the Jenkins family was wealthy, Bailey didn't have a happy childhood, especially after the incident in junior high school. Her thoughts differed from others, and she had her reasons for not wanting to get into a marriage.

Hearing this, Ronald exclaimed angrily, "Don't listen to your dad. He probably just wants to gain something from the marriage candidate. Don't fall for his tricks."

He added, "Also, Naomi is enough proof of what marriage holds for us. You don't need to follow in her

footsteps."
