Chapter 26

When Naomi heard Brendan’s question, she instantly understood his intended meaning.

He knew that Maximus was back and that he had sent her home just now. He was trying to find trouble!

Without giving any excus

excuses or feeling any guilt, Naomi answered without hesitation, “Maximus just came back. He gave me a ride home just now.” Hearing Naomi say Maximus name, Brendan felt angry. “Maximus? The two of you seem so close. Do you know where he lives? It’s not the same route

at all ”

Brendan was so angry just because Naomi had come back a little late. If Naomi hadn’t returned tonight, he would probably have turned the whole of Ashburgh upside down.

Most importantly, after “that incident“, Naomi no longer called him Bred, but Brendan.

Thinking of this made Brendan feel uncomfortable.

Despite Brendan’s bad attitude, Naomi still explained steadily, “I was waiting for a taxi, and he happened to be going home as well.”

Even so, Brendan yelled, “I remember that Mason, Reuben, and the rest were there as well. I’m sure Bailey would have spent time accompanying you too! There were all these people, but you chose to come back with Maximus! I remember telling you to ask James to pick you up!”

Seeing Brendan refusing to give in, Naomi stood her ground too.

If they were to talk about tonight’s matter, Brendan was the one to blame.

Naomi took off her hair clip and threw it on the table. She stared at Brendan as she said, “You left your wife behind after getting a call from another woman! You even went over to see her and accompany her to the hospital!

you get the courage to yell at me and question me? Maximus wouldn’t have offered to give me a ride if you hadn’t left me behind! “Brendan Ludwig! I think I’ve been too soft on you all this time, and I’ve always overlooked your problems. Do you think I’m easy because of this?

me tell you something. If I leave you for another man one day, it’ll surely be because you’ve pushed me away with your own hands!”

Naomi had been holding back all these words for a long time.

“Let

She had always thought that it wasn’t necessary to speak so openly in this relationship since she only needed to get pregnant with his child.

However, Brendan had become such an insatiable jerk

Brendan became angrier after Naomi argued back.

“Look at you being so righteous ever since Maximus came back! Naomi, how could I trust you not to have any second thoughts like this? Brendan shouted

Seeing that Brendan was completely unaware of his own problems and had pinned the blame on Maximus, Naomi said angrily, “Yeah! I do have second thoughts!

“One more thing, Brendan! Just say it if you want to end this relationship. There’s no need to overcomplicate things! If you don’t want the label of being divorced, just suggest any other term, and I won’t object.”

Naomi couldn’t bear to live through days like this anymore–not even a single day more.

It wasn’t a big deal for him to accompany Chloe to the hospital, but she couldn’t even accept a ride from someone else. He had such double standards.

She couldn’t deal with him anymore.

No matter who he was or how many children he could provide her with, he wasn’t worth her time.

Hearing Naomi mention the divorce again, Brendan gritted his teeth in anger. He then smiled sarcastically as he stared at her with his extremely cold

ryes

Brendan approached Naomi before raising his right hand and grabbing her face. “Naomi Goodwin, if you regret not accepting Maximus proposal and if you’re thinking of getting together with him, there’s no need to hide your thoughts. If you admit that without guilt, I might even be able to help facilitate your relationship.”

Naomi quickly pushed his hands away. “You’re right! I regret not agreeing to his proposal, and I want to be with him. Besides, he’s saved me once too, so I’d like to thank you for your support in advance!”

Before Brendan could say anything, Naomi continued to speak, angrily, “Also, I’m not afraid to tell you that marrying anyone else would be better than being married to you So, quickly get this broken marriage over with, and don’t hinder me from finding happiness

Over the past two years of their marriage, the two of them had argued countless times, and Brendan had also said some outrageous
