Chapter 249

Fireworks! Naomi quickly ran back to the tent and picked up a bunch of fireworks. Then she saw a bottleof alcohol on the side. Her pupils turned dark and sunken. She grabbed the bottle and stuffed’ it into hermouth.

‘I need it for the courage to talk to Mister Daddy!! “Miss Naomi! This alcohol is very strong, you can’t…”Before Uncle Zach finished his sentence, Naomi had drunk more than half of the alcohol. Then shebrought the fireworks and ran toward Jack.

“Mister Daddy!” Naomi shouted out loud.

Jack lowered his head and looked at the girl who was standing beside him.”What’s this?”

“This is a special sparkler that Janell brought from her hometown. I heard your wish will come true if youwish with it. Try it!” Naomi was very persuasive as she insisted Jack try it. Her eyes looked very sincere.“It’s real!”

Jack took the sparkler with disdain and lit it up. The sparkler emitted bright, intense colored flames andsparks while lighting up the view in front of him. “Make a wish! Make a wish!” Naomi urged quickly. Jackglanced at her and decided not to ruin the moment. “I hope for peace.” After that, he lit up another newsparkler and gave it to Naomi. “It’s your turn. What is your wish?”

“I…” The alcohol rushed into her brain and caused her to stand wobbly. Her head was not functioningnormally as she stuttered, “I want to live a vigorous life. Be bold to love and hate! Be a superhero to saveeveryone on earth!”

“Vigorous?” Jack’s cold eyes trembled slightly. “I thought you wanted to live a peaceful and quiet life?”

“Peaceful and quiet? How boring is that?” Naomi shook her head drunkenly without thinking why Jackwas asking that question. “I don’t want that kind of life.” After that, she waved her hand in disdain.

“So that’s what you really want.” Jack could not help but curl his lips. He did not expect things to turnaround. “Cough, cough.” He covered his mouth with his fists to clear his throat. Then he looked at Naomisolemnly, “Have you considered the question I asked you previously?”

“I did!” Naomi nodded her head hard. Suddenly, Jack felt weird. ‘So fast?’

“You don’t have to answer me now. You can take more time to think about…” Jack said.

“I don’t want to know your secret!” Naomi lowered her head and interrupted Jack with a loud voice.

The smile on Jack’s face froze. Then he looked away while mocking himself. ‘Damn, I thought thingscould be different…’

In the next second, Naomi threw herself at Jack! Jack’s pupils trembled and held Naomi instinctivelybefore he lost his balance. “Are you crazy…”

“Yes. I’m going crazy!” Naomi leaned on Jack’s chest and started to speak her mind with the help of thealcohol. “It was just an angry talk! Why did you suddenly change to another person? Having a cold warwith me deliberately, pushing me away, and even being fierce at me! I don’t care what sort of lame secretyou keep! I don’t care if you are going to tell me or not! The weird atmosphere has gotten me crazy! Iwould rather be happy just like before!” She kept on complaining while her eyes reddened.

Jack was hugging Naomi stiffly and listened to Naomi’s outburst. His expression turned from shock torelief. “Pfft!” He failed to constrain his laughter anymore. After that, he started to laugh out loud from thebottom of his heart.

“What are you laughing at?” Naomi raised her head with curiosity and coincidentally made eye contactwith Jack’s serious eyes.

“I’m sorry. Let’s turn the page,” Jack said, taking off his coat and putting it on Naomi with care.

It turned out he was the childish one these few days and not Naomi. He was the one who forced Naomito make the decision right away and forgot that everything has to process gradually. There was stillenough time and he should not rush things. “Oh…”
