Boomerang Love (Naomi and Brendan)
Chapter 83

Chapter 83

Naomi answered the call. "What's up?"

Brendan's voice came from the other end as he asked, "Where are you?"

Naomi replied, "I'm home and already asleep."

After saying that, she hung up abruptly. Over the past few months, Brendan had called her several times.

He used to never answer her calls.

Naomi hung up the phone. Christine looked at her and asked, "Naomi, who was that?"

Naomi replied, "It was Brendan."

Christine said, "Then, what was with that attitude and tone just now? Can't you be a little more polite to him? You're pushing him away with that attitude."

Brendan didn't attend the banquet with Naomi tonight, which made Christine quite unhappy. Now that he had called, she thought that Naomi should be affectionate and try to coax him. Naomi sighed. "You're lucky you met Dad. You would be crying everyday if you had met someone like Brendan."

Christine scolded, "Watch your mouth."

Bailey put her hands in her pockets and said with a smile, "Mrs. Goodwin, Naomi didn't do anything wrong. You shouldn't coddle a man. The more you pamper him, the less he'll value you." She then turned to Dennis, who had been silent all along, and asked, "Isn't that right, Mr. Goodwin?"

"Yes," Dennis responded. Then, he turned to Naomi and said, "I don't mind how you and Brendan compete, but please don't let it lead to divorce. And make sure to have a child as soon as possible." "I know," Naomi replied perfunctorily.

She got into her car and said her goodbyes to Bailey and her parents. Then, she stepped on the

accelerator and drove away.

As soon as the car left the hotel, her phone beside her rang again. It was a call from Ronald,

"Naomi, when are you coming back?"

Naomi looked displeased as she said, "Damn it! I've had enough of Brendan checking up on me, and now you're monitoring me too? The event just ended."

"Come over tonight."

Naomi was speechless.

Why did that statement come across as flirtatious to her?

Naomi didn't respond immediately. Ronald continued, "I haven't seen a living soul in five days. I haven't Chapter 83

spoken to anyone in five days. Don't you feel sorry for me?"

Naomi retorted, "Ronald, why don't you go back to Hope Elementary School?"

Refusing to leave the house all day, was that a sensible way to spend his time?

"No way! Even if I die here, I won't go back to that shitty place," he replied.

"Hurry up and come over to keep me company. You'll be all by yourself if you go home, so why don't we keep each other company? I'll order some takeout for you."

Naomi felt like Ronald was coaxing her like a three-year-old child.

But when she thought about how Brendan hadn't returned home for over ten days and had even attended. the Sabella family's event with Chloe, Naomi decided not to go back either. So, she hung up the phone, leaving Ronald waiting.
