“The girl beside him is promiscuous,” said Bailey.

“He’s not the kind of guy who will be satisfied with a pushover,” Naomi replied as they returned to the bar.

Shortly after they returned, Maximus said that he had an appointment the next day. Naomi also said that she had to leave since she had a court case in the morning

Since the two most important people of the event were leaving, the group decided to call it a night.

At the parking lot, Maximus saw that Brendan wasn’t with Naomi.

“Let me send you home, Naomi,” Maximus said, remembering that she had some wine earlier.

“Alright!” Naomi accepted.

Someone grabbed her arm just as she was about to get into Maximus‘ car.

Before she could react, she heard Brendan abruptly ask, “Are you his wife? Why are you leaving with him?”

Brendan didn’t give Naomi a chance to answer and threw her into the backseat of his car.

“Ouch!” Naomi exclaimed as her elbow hit the car door.

She kicked Brendan once he entered the car. “Are you crazy?”

Brendan ignored her and ordered the driver, ‘Head home, James.”

The crowd was stunned, trying to take in what had just happened.

“Mason, what’s going on?” the girl who was with Brendan earlier asked.

Mason shrugged and said, “Brendan has been married for two years now. You all don’t stand a chance.”

The girl was surprised as she pieced everything together.

Brendan was married to Naomi. No wonder he had looked at her all night, even when she was right beside him. And he had visibly gotten upset when she had said that Maximus was staring at Naomi.

As the car drove off, Brendan dusted off his pants and said, “Do you want to sit in his car again? Is one.

time not enough?”

“You have no right to say this.” Naomi scoffed.

Brendan knew that she was talking about the time he had accompanied Chloe to the hospital. He explained, “That’s because I owe her a favor.”

“Sure.” Naomi sneered. “Whatever you say, Brendan. I’m sure you have your reasons.”

Despite Naomi’s unforgiving attitude, Brendan’s heart felt slightly warmed.

This was the first time in their marriage that they’d argued. Usually, they would just brush over any problems.

At this moment, he truly felt that Naomi was acting like how a wife should be.

“I’ll be more careful next time,” Brendan promised, taking Naomi by surprise.

“I have no idea who that girl was earlier. But I admit that I did it to spite you.”

Brendan was slightly worried that Maximus would take advantage of Naomi now that he had returned. So, before Naomi could tell him to explain himself, he decided to admit his faults first.

Naomi rolled her eyes and turned away from Brendan, Ignoring him.

Brendan leaned back in his seat and said, “My head hurts.”

Naomi remained silent.

Brendan peeked at Naomi and said, “Can you massage my temples?”

“No,” Naomi refused.

“Please?” Brendan grabbed her hand and put it on his temples as he spoke.

Naomi didn’t remove her hands and instead massaged his forehead while complaining. After all, she still needed him to have a baby.

They arrived home after half an hour. Jennifer and the other maids had already gone to bed.

Naomi saw Brendan heading toward the kitchen as she walked upstairs. She mocked, “What’s wrong? Are you planning to sleep in the kitchen because you’re in the wrong?”
