Boomerang Love (Naomi and Brendan)
Chapter 78

Chapter 78

After lan finished speaking, someone nearby asked, "Mr. Obel, has your son reached the legal age?"

lan chuckled. "He's just turned 18 two months ago. He gave Naomi a car as a gift, and that's how he became acquainted with her."

After Naomi handled the case, Brian started sticking to her like glue. He and a group of boys constantly hung around her office, and they had even called her "Mrs. Obel". Those days, Naomi had a daily escort Eventually, she dealt with the group of boys, and with lan's stern admonishments, Brian had quieted down

for a while. However, he had promised her that he would return.

On the sidelines, Brendan had remained expressionless, but when he heard about a newly-turned adult boy pursuing Naomi, he raised his gaze and looked at her.

First, it was Maximus, and now, even kids weren't off-limits. She had quite the knack for this.

Naomi felt Brendan's gaze on her, but she couldn't be bothered to acknowledge it. She only turned her

attention to him when lan introduced them.

"Naomi, this is Mr. Ludwig, the CEO of Ludwig Corporation."

"Mr. Ludwig," Naomi extended her hand as she greeted Brendan.

Seeing that Naomi was acting as if she didn't know him, Brendan unexpectedly held onto her hand tightly

when she attempted to retract it.

Naomi lifted her head, and Brendan offered her a half-smile, saying, "Ms. Goodwin."

Naomi stared at Brendan and replied, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Ludwig. My expertise lies in divorce cases, so if you ever need assistance in divorce matters, please don't hesitate to contact me." Brendan tightened his grip on Naomi's hand and affirmed, "I will,"

Naomi took a sharp breath and used her fingernails to harshly pinch the back of his hand while maintaining eye contact. Their standoff left everyone nearby puzzled. 3

lan glanced at Brendan and then at Naomi, asking. "Do you guys know each other?"

Both of them released each other's hands simultaneously, and Naomi was the first to speak, saying, "No,

we don't."

At this moment, Naomi's right hand was red, and there were nail marks on the back of Brendan's hand. His expression had darkened considerably.

They didn't know each other?

He had known her since the day she was born.

With a dark expression, Brendan stuffed his hands into his pockets. He had forgotten how many times he

had claimed not to know Naomi in front of others.

lan laughed. "Well, you know each other now. You're all young, so there's plenty of room for future

interactions."

Naomi smiled and replied, "Thank you, Mr. Obel, for the introduction."

After exchanging pleasantries with lan, Naomi excused herself and left the area. However, as luck would have it, she bumped into Brendan just after leaving the restroom.

She used a couple of tissues to wipe her hands and greeted him nonchalantly, "Mr. Ludwig."

Counting on her fingers, it had been over ten days since they had last met. Brendan had never been fond of acknowledging any connection with her in public, so Naomi had addressed him as "Mr. Ludwig". Brendan frowned and blocked her path. He looked down at her and asked, "Why are you acting like you

don't know me?"
