Chapter 95

The car door opened, and Maximus' secretary stepped out. "Ms. Goodwin," he said.

The sly smile on Henry's face carried a deeper meaning when he saw that it was Maximus,

"Mr. Hall," Noomi said nonchalantly, groeting him.

Seeing this, Ryan smiled and said, "Ms. Goodwin, we are truly grateful for your help in settling the wage dispute for the migrant workers. Mr. Martin would like to invite you to dinner to personally express his gra Naomi replied, "Sure."

After agreeing, she glanced at Henry and added, "Mr. Sabella, I'll be going now."

Henry smiled and said, "Brendan seems to have quite a few rivals."

Henry's taunt didn't faze Naomi, who calmly took two steps forward, leaned slightly forward, and whispered, "So, Mr. Sabella, if you're interested in pursuing me, you're not up for it."

Henry's expression changed, and his gaze toward Naomi became colder.

Indifferent to his reaction, Naomi casually straightened Henry's clothes, then turned and left.

Ryan opened the rear car door for her. Maximus, who was seated inside the car, glanced at Henry before nodding calmly.

With his hands in his pockets, Henry watched the car drive away, his expression growing increasingly

serious.

In Ashburgh, there were too many talented individuals, and Henry knew he still had a long way to go if he wanted to rise above them all.

The car started, and Maximus said, "Naomi, I want to thank you for what happened last time. I've been wanting to invite you to dinner, but I've been abroad for a meeting."

Naomi smiled. "Mr. Martin, you're too polite."

They continued to chat as the driver took them to a private restaurant.

Naomi didn't really want to attend Maximus' dinner gathering, but since they were all at the law firm and Henry was present today, she decided to join them.

Meanwhile, Brendan returned home to Yellowind Bay.

He noticed that Naomi hadn't returned yet, so he instructed Jason to replace out her whereabouts. After a while, Jason called back and said, "Mr. Ludwig, Mr. Sabella went to replace Ms. Goodwin this evening."

Brendan's expression changed slightly, and he asked in a somewhat emotionless voice, "Where is she now?"

On the other end of the phone, Jason cautiously replied, "Mr. Martin also went to see Ms. Goodwin today.. They are having dinner together, so I guess..."

Before Jason could finish, the bedroom door suddenly swung open. In the next moment, Naomi's voice came in like a breath of fresh air, "You're back! Weren't you just going to handle this perfunctorily? Have y Naomi entered the room, and Brendan casually hung up his phone and tossed it aside. Naomi glanced at him leisurely before taking off her coat and hanging it on the coat rack.

With his hands in his pockets, Brendan looked at Naomi and asked coldly, "Where did you go?"

Naomi stretched her neck and replied somewhat wearily, "I had dinner with a friend."

Brendan pulled Naomi's waist, abruptly pulling her closer to him. "Which friend? Can't you say their name?"

Naomi couldn't help but smile. "Jealous?"

Facing Naomi's playful smile, Brendan held her waist with one hand and pinched her chin with the other. Naomi, if the Goodwin family wants to establish a firm foothold in Ashburgh and live in peace, I think you The smile on Naomi's face gradually faded as she stared directly at Brendan. "Brendan, are you threatening me?"

She hated being threatened the most, and furthermore, what qualifications did Brendan have

Without waiting for her smile to fade away completely, Naomi gently removed Brendan's hand pinching her chin and calmly asked, "Brendan, are you confident that I can't compete with you?" Leaving everything else aside, based on Brendan's words tonight, Naomi felt that she couldn't be careless

Brendan asked, "Naomi, are you declaring war, then?"

Naomi didn't want to argue with him, so she turned and took her pajamas from the wardrobe. She said.

calmly, "No one is declaring war with you. I just want to remind you

that my parents and Goodwin Corporation are my bottom line. Don't touch them."

After saying this, Naomi headed toward the bathroom, but Brendan grabbed her arm and pulled her into

his embrace.

At this point, Naomi no longer showed her usual pleasant demeanor. She turned to

him and said, Brendan, are you done? You always have Chloe with you. Must we argue every single day? Do I even have time for anything else? Can't I have a life and focus on my work?"

When Naomi spoke sternly, Brendan became even angrier. "You argue with me after every time you meet with Maximus. I believe your heart has already drifted elsewhere."

Naomi was fed up and replied impatiently, "Yes, yes, my heart has drifted elsewhere. So, what do you

want to do about it?"

Every time he came back, they would end up arguing, so he might as well not come back at all. She was busy and exhausted all day long.

Brendan turned away with both hands in his pockets and remained silent.

After a long silence, Brendan turned back. He looked at Naomi coldly and said, "Naomi, do you still think you're in the right?"

Naomi's expression darkened. 'Are you suggesting that you're in the right? Brendan, if you have something to say, just say it directly. There's no need to make a big deal out of it every time. I'm not someone wh Naomi's counterattack left Brendan momentarily speechless. He lit a cigarette and walked to the window.

As the smoke filled the room, Brendan turned back to Naomi and said, "Naomi, by the sounds of it, you're waiting for me to speak up.'

"No," Naomi replied with frustration. "You've already made it clear enough. If I keep insisting, I wouldn't be respecting myself. I......”

Brendan interrupted before Naomi could finish her sentence, "What have I made clear?"

Naomi sighed, feeling drained. In irritation, she said, "If you want to settle this score, then let's do it today. We've been married for over two years, and there hasn't been a wedding banquet. You haven't even given

a single piece of jewelry, not to mention a wedding ring.

"And when it comes to Chloe, you keep her by your side all the time. You attend various events with her. Who exactly is your wife between the two of us?"
