Chapter 20

When Naomi heard Brendan suddenly bring up the check, she siniled and said, “It doesn’t matter who gave it.”

What would happen even if she had told him?

Maybe Brendan knew what was going on but pretended like he knew nothing

Naomi looked like she didn’t care at all.

Brendan stared at her for a while before saying coldly, “Naorni, if you really want to live a good life and have a child, don’t try to please me superficially Effort without intention is nothing”

Listening to Brendan, Naurd was left speechless.

“Someone who doesn’t even come home is actually trying to teach me how to manage my marriage,” Naomi said.

Brendan had nothing to say in response. He felt like he was being insulted.

After clearing his throat, he said in a much softer tone, “Didn’t I promise you I’d go home once a week?

“Don’t even mention that! You’ve kept the promise only once. I’ll just pretend I didn’t hear it,” Naomi said..

He shouldn’t even think about asking her to act in front of his family again.

“I’ll make it up to you, along with interest,” Brendan said.

Brendan’s husky yet magnetic voice was surprisingly pleasant, and it sounded even better when he spoke softly to Naomi

“If you say so,” Naomi said, smiling happily. “I’m ready to charge you a heavy interest.”

Brendan gave a grimace and then raised his hand to pinch Naomi’s check. “Naomi, don’t make your intentions so obvious.”

Although Naomi didn’t mention her intention, Brendan knew that she wanted to have a child.

Naomi moved her butt toward Brendan and wrapped her arms around his neck, “Don’t you want to try?”

Naomi was indeed quite p

persistent when it came to having a child.

Brendan remained unfazed by Naomi’s seductive eyes. “I don’t.”

Naomi said in disbelief, “You’re lying!” As she said that, she leaned in closer toward Brendan.

“Ms. Naomi Goodwin, it’s time for a checkup”

Just as Naomi was about to kiss Brendan, a nurse pushed open the hospital room’s door.

Naomi quickly leaned back on the bed. She lifted her hands to tuck her long hair behind her ears and pretended like nothing had happened. Brendan laughed when he saw this

He stood up from the chair slowly and tucked his hands into his pockets. He then lowered his gaze and said, “Aren’t you going to hide?”

Naomi extended her fair leg from under the blanket and kicked Brendan without hesitation

Meanwhile, the face of the chubby nurse at the door turned red.

After checking her body temperature and taking a blood sample, it was determined that Naomi still had a fever and hadn’t recovered yet. She had to continue getting injections and remain under observation.

In the afternoon, Ronald came over to visit, along with his family members and some of Naomi’s cousins.

When they arrived, Brendan greeted them quietly from beside her and occasionally answered his work calls.

The hospital room finally became quiet at night.

At this moment, Naomi had just finished washing up and was about to go to bed.

When she saw Brendan adjusting the chairs so that he could lie down, she moved her body to the side and patted the other side of the bed. “You can sleep here.”

Brendan glanced at her and said indifferently, “I won’t.”

Naomi put on a wry expression and said, “I’m not going to eat you”

“That’s exactly what I’m worried about,” Brendan answered

With that pair of gold–rimmed glasses perched on his nose, Brendan looked elegant and reguish at the same time. He was indeed quite charming. The more obvious Naomi’s intentions became, the less Brendan would allow her to have her way.
