Boomerang Love (Naomi and Brendan)
Chapter 230

Chapter 230

Matthew held fewer shares than Bailey. But since she was his daughter, outsiders naturally saw them as a family.

If she and Matthew fell out and her shares ended up in the hands of a third party, then Matthew would be at risk of losing his position as the company's president.

Naomi was a lawyer. Having known her for many years, Bailey had learned a thing or two from her.

Matthew's face fell at Bailey's warning. Even Pauline and Estelle looked shocked. They hadn't expected the usually quiet Bailey to be able to turn the tables when the time called for it.

The maids didn't dare to approach Bailey after that. They looked to Matthew, waiting for his orders.

Matthew didn't know how much truth was in Bailey's words. However, thinking of her friendship with Naomi, who had recently won several notable lawsuits and gained some fame in the legal world, he had no choice but to comply.

"Let her go. I doubt she could pull any major stunts."

The maids stepped away, and Bailey walked out with her hands in her pockets. She gave Pauline a look

on her way out.

Pauline's expression turned unpleasant. "What are you looking at? Your marriage has nothing to do with

me."

Bailey snorted coldly. "If that Wade guy was a good catch, you would have volunteered Estelle instead."

Pauline rolled her eyes. "Bailey, your grandparents were the ones who chose him. It has nothing to do with me. Also, I don't even think you're worthy of him."

Bailey brushed Pauline's jabs off and met her gaze. "Pauline, you were the one who orchestrated the

incident nine years ago, right?"

Pauline's expression shifted at this. She avoided eye contact and stuttered, "I don't understand what you're talking about. I don't know what happened nine years ago." Bailey chuckled at Pauline's guilty look. It seemed that she needed to investigate this matter more

closely.

Although Matthew was observing Bailey and Pauline, he couldn't sense Pauline's

guilt. But he did replace Bailey arrogant and angrily shouted, "Bailey, get out of my house if you're not going to agree to the blind date!"

Bailey turned to Matthew. "Don't worry. You can't even pay me to stay in this shitty house."

With that, she stuffed her hands in her pockets and walked out of the house. She felt quite pleased with herself for standing her ground.

She didn't need anyone's input on her life, nor did she need Matthew and Pauline to meddle in her affairs.

After leaving the place, Bailey called her driver and was picked up shortly after.

Bailey felt as if a weight had been lifted from her shoulders after telling Matthew off. However, she knew she didn't have the winning hand yet.

Although she held shares in Jenkins Group, she didn't have much power or influence over it. It seemed

her fight with Matthew wasn't over yet.

The next morning, after Bailey told Naomi and Ronald about what had happened the previous night, the two praised her.

At that moment, Naomi had just finished handling a dispute between an employee and a company.

She had been representing the employee, and despite the company's arrogance, they had ultimately lost

the case.

With good news on both fronts, Naomi realized her period hadn't started. Seeing that it was still early, she politely declined her colleague's invitation and went to the hospital instead.

After a few examinations, Naomi checked the time and realized she still had plenty of time. So, she sat outside the doctor's office, scrolling through her phone.
