Chapter 120

Hearing that Tom had turned violent

over the divorce case, Mason exclaimed angrily, "He didn't even run a background check on you before kidnapping you! He must have a death wish! No wonder Brendan is furious."

He added, "But the verdict was made by the judge. Why did he only come after you? It must be because he thought you were someone without good backing, and he was lusting after you."

Mason cursed Tom furiously, wishing the worst death upon him.

But it was indeed not worth it to dirty one's hands over Tom.

Mason cursed Tom throughout their drive.

After a while, the car stopped in front of an abandoned warehouse, and the two finally reached their destination.

Naomi recognized the warehouse. It was an old warehouse under Ludwig Corporation.

"He's inside," Mason said as he unfastened his seatbelt and got out of the car. Naomi followed suit.

In no time, they entered the warehouse, where they saw Ronald, Reuben, and Cameron, along with Jason and several other bodyguards.

It was clear that Reuben and the others had tried to intervene, but to no avail.

At that moment, Brendan was still beating Tom.

The burly Tom from the villa earlier had now been beaten to a pulp.

"You're here, Naomi. Brendan has gone crazy, and nothing can stop him," Ronald said as soon as he saw Naomi.

Upon seeing her, Jason greeted nervously, "Hello, Ms. Goodwin." Naomi had just called him earlier, and he had lied, claiming Brendan was busy with work.

"Hello, Naomi." Reuben and Cameron also greeted her,

Naomi nodded at them before turning her attention to Brendan, who was beating Tom with a water pipe.

Upon seeing Naomi, Tom immediately turned his bloody face toward her.

He pleaded, "I'm sorry, Ms. Goodwin. I was blind and didn't look into your background. I'm an ignorant law- breaker. I apologize. Please tell Mr. Ludwig to spare my life!" Tom spent all his remaining strength begging Naomi for mercy.

After Tom pleaded, Naomi glanced at Brendan and saw that his eyes were bloodshot. They were filled with nothing but anger. He didn't bother with the people around him. Naomi had known Brendan for 23 years, and this was only the second time she had seen him like this. It was as if he were possessed.

When he pinned Tom to the ground, she stepped forward and grabbed his arm. "Brendan, stop."

Despite Naomi's plea, Brendan didn't snap out of it and continued his attacks.

Suddenly, Tom coughed out some blood before going limp.

If Brendan continued, Tom would be dead soon.

With her hand tightly gripping Brendan's arm, Naomi sald, “Brendan, that's enough. Let's go

home."

Her voice echoed in his ears, and Brendan paused.

Noticing this, she said again, "Brendan, let's go home! Didn't we agree to have some fun together?"

It had been so long since Naomi had called out to him so softly. She would usually call him "Mr. Ludwig", and even if she did call his name, it was to tease him.

It had been quite some time since she had called him so gently.

They used to be so close.

Seeing Brendan stop, Naomi repeated, "Brendan, stop! Let's go home."

Naomi had never deemed herself a saint. But she didn't want Brendan to become a murderer, spend the

rest of his life under the public's accusing fingers, or face the harsh consequences.
