Boomerang Love (Naomi and Brendan)
Chapter 60

Naomi casually replied, "I said it's all my fault. I didn't manage to secure your son-in-law's love."

It was a good thing her father never fooled around. Otherwise, she'd be calling anyone "mom".

Naomi didn't argue with her.

Christine continued to wipe her tears. "You can't entirely blame yourself for this. Brendan has his share of responsibility, and those women outside are also to blame." Naomi replied, "Indeed, this can't be blamed solely on me."

Ignoring Naomi's response, Christine continued, "Naomi, if a woman wants to hold onto a man's heart, she has to have his child. Otherwise, the man won't settle down."

Naomi couldn't agree with Christine's thoughts. Her child will be born for herself, not for anyone else.

Naomi remained silent.

Christine looked at her and asked, "Why aren't you speaking?"

Naomi replied, "You're right."

Christine continued to cry. "Naomi, I came here today to have a heart-to-heart talk with you. Don't even think about divorce. Your father and I will definitely not give you your household registration book if you

1. do.

"Your father insisted that you should have a child no matter how tough life gets. If you don't, what will you do when we're gone? You can't be left without anyone to take care of you." Naomi said, "Alright, I'll have a child."

Christine abruptly stopped crying and said, "Naomi, you promised this yourself. Don't go back on your

word."

Naomi tilted her head and rubbed her temple with one hand. "Yes, I promise."

Worried that Naomi was just placating her, Christine added, "Your father has been quite troubled lately with company matters. Don't cause him even more trouble."

Naomi immediately straightened up. "What's wrong with the company?"

She could choose not to have a child and tolerate frustration, but nothing could hinder her family's journey to success or prevent

them from making money. Every penny that Dennis earned now would be her retirement fund.

Christine replied, "I don't know the specifics, but it seems related to the Sabella family. So, don't cause your father any trouble."

Naomi nodded and said, "I got it."

With the assurance that Naomi wouldn't insist on a divorce, Christine wiped her tears. "Just be sensible, and don't pick fights with Brendan. Also, try to indulge him more." Naomi agreed. "Okay."

Christine continued, "Well, I won't say much more. Let's go check on Brendan's situation."

As they were leaving, they coincidentally met Heather and Brendan coming out of the study. There were

still a few marks from the feather duster on Brendan's face.

Seeing Naomi and Christine, Heather greeted them with a smile. "Christine, are we done here?"

Christine replied, "Yes, I gave her a good scolding."

Seeing the situation, Heather reached out and comforted Naomi. "Naomi, I just gave Brendan a good scolding, and Chloe has gone home too. I've had the entire house cleaned from top to bottom for you. If you Naomi yawned and replied, "There's no need to change the house."

Heather, in a good mood, reassured her, "Anyway, whatever you decide is fine. We'll listen to you."

Seeing that Naomi was completely ignoring Brendan, Christine nudged her in the waist and said, "Naomi, Brendan is looking at you. Say something to him."

Naomi winced at the prodding and then looked toward Brendan.

As their eyes met, Naomi couldn't help but feel satisfied when she saw the marks from the feather duster on Brendan's face.

With her hands in the pockets of her pajamas, she looked at Brendan and said, "You touched me a few times last night. Settle the bill."

Heather and Christine were initially taken aback, but then their faces turned bright red.
