My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 1098

Emma replied with an 'okay' and felt a little disappointed for some reason.

"Actually, I think that Culver guy is quite decent either. Although he doesn't have a good temper, if he really likes you, maybe he'll change?" Emma had also seen how Naomi and Nelson had progressed to that stage.

In that relationship, Naomi's love had been futile and she had suffered too much.

She also knew that although Naomi seemed to have completely forgotten about the past on the surface, in fact, she missed Nelson a lot.

Otherwise, she would not have chosen to leave Rosaville City and head to somewhere as remote as Greene City.

If she could start a new relationship, maybe she would be able to forget some of the unhappy memories.

"Are you kidding me?" Naomi interrupted her thoughts.

"How can I like that narcissistic weirdo? Moreover, I feel that there's something wrong with this person."

Emma was rendered speechless.

It seemed that Naomi and Culver would never work out.

"Take care of yourself when you're alone over there!" As she spoke, she asked with a sudden curiosity, "Are you going to sleep with him tonight?"

"What?" Naomi did not manage to react in time. There was a knock on the door.

Culver's annoying voice asked, "Did you fall into the toilet?"

Naomi simply said goodbye to Emma and hung up on the call. She won't be sleeping with that stinking man, would she?

She opened the bathroom door and immediately looked around.

When she found that Loraine had gone to the kitchen to wash the dishes, she took two steps forward and stopped Culver.

"Our sleeping arrangements."

Culver looked at her curiously and asked, "What about it?"

"Where am I going to sleep tonight?"

Culver's lips curled into a smirk as he said, "What's the matter? Are you afraid?"

Naomi said with a frown, "It's not a matter of whether I'm afraid or not. We agreed at that time that..."

Before her voice died away, Loraine appeared behind them.

"Young Master Culver, Miss George, are you guys going to sleep separately? If yes, then I'll help you to clean up the room..."

"No!" Culver stretched out his hand and grabbed Naomi.

"We've been sleeping together all this while. There's no need to clean up the other room."

A little disappointed, Loraine smiled awkwardly and left.

Naomi still wanted to say something, but Culver had already lowered his voice and warned, "Let's go back to the room first!"

Culver's room was just like him, incredibly strange.

The reason why it was strange was not because of the interior decoration, but because of the fact that there was only one bed in the large room, and there was not even a sofa. Naomi was completely dumbfounded.

"Is this why you want to return to your room to talk? Is it because you want to display your gentlemanliness and sleep on the floor?"

Before Naomi finished her words, Culver had already pulled out a blanket from the cabinet and threw it to her.

"No, you're the one sleeping on the floor."

Naomi was taken aback. Then, she retorted, "I thought that Mr. Olsen would know a lot about etiquette and morals."

Culver raised his eyebrows as he replied, "Sorry, I do, but not with someone whom I'm in a deal with. All of that is unnecessary now." Alright!

Naomi had tired herself out the entire day, therefore she did not want to argue with him anymore.

Culver was an arrogant person who had lived for more than twenty years, and he would not be influenced by an outsider's words!

After circling around the room, Naomi finally laid out the blanket that Culver had given her at the furthest place from the bed. Fortunately, it was summer.

Naomi pulled the cushion from the window and placed it on the floor.

When Culver came out of the bathroom after his bath, she had fallen asleep. It was late at night, and the sound of her breathing could be heard faintly.

Under the light, her long eyelashes were like butterfly wings, casting shadows on her eyelids.

Culver stood by her side and watched her for a while. Just as he was about to squat down, Naomi suddenly reached out and grabbed his ankle. She did not open her eyes, but her tone was clear.

"As someone who practices self defense, I'm extremely vigilant. Don't think that you can do anything to me while I'm asleep."

Culver remained calm and collected.

He spoke after a long time, "There's a spider."

Naomi, who was initially calm, suddenly screamed. She jumped up from the ground, and into Culver's arms.

"Where is it? Where is it?"

By the time Culver realized what was going on, Naomi was hanging onto his waist like a koala.

It was rare to see her in such a state of panic, and Culver was amused.

"Sorry, I lied to you!"

Naomi was still in shock. She looked around and found that he really had lied to her. Then, she got down from Culver angrily.

"You've gone too far!"

Culver's face showed no change. However, there was unconcealable excitement on his face.

"So, you're afraid of spiders!"

Naomi braced herself to refute, "No, I'm not!"

Master Clarke had told her that in their line of business, they couldn't have any weaknesses! Even if they did, others could not know about it. Therefore, no one knew that she was afraid of spiders, except for her family members. Unexpectedly, Culver, the annoying guy, had found out about her secret by accident!

Obviously, she would not admit it.

"Are you really not afraid? Then, the one behind you..."

"Ah!" Naomi could not overcome the fear in her heart and clung onto Culver's waist again.

The sound of Loraine knocking on the door could be heard from outside.

"Young Master Culver, Miss George, what's the matter?"

Culver's body stiffened.

He quickly replied, "It's nothing!"

Immediately after, he pretended to be gentle as he looked at Naomi, saying, "Don't shout so loudly, or you'll disturb other people!"

As someone with experience, Loraine instantly understood what was going on. She left in embarrassment.

Naomi was still afraid as she asked, "Is the spider gone?"

Culver turned around with her in his arms and said, "Sorry, I lied to you again! You should use your brain a bit. How can there be spiders in my place?" Naomi was so angry that she wanted to beat him. She warned him, "You'd better not let me know what your weakness is! Otherwise, you'll see how I deal with you!" Culver's face was filled with arrogance as he said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid that you're really going to be disappointed because I don't have any weaknesses!" After the prank, Naomi no longer paid him any attention. At last, she fell asleep.

The next day, before she woke up, she felt someone kicking her.

"Get up!"

As soon as Naomi opened her eyes, she saw Culver bending over and looking down at her. It was him who had kicked her.

She reached out to grab him, but he dodged flexibly.

"Loraine will be coming in later to tidy up the room. Put your things back."

As he spoke, Culver flipped the bed over, deliberately making it messy.

Naomi looked at him from behind with a face full of contempt.

"I'll say, Mr. Olsen, you are quite experienced! You must have had a lot of girlfriends, right? In that case, wouldn't it be better for you to just bring one of them back? Why must you make things difficult for me?" Culver glanced at her.

"Are you daft? Obviously, I'm the one helping you here. If I had taken someone else back with me, how would you have the opportunity to make a deal with me? What about your debt?"

Naomi could not refute his words.

She had no choice but to wash up. Outside the door, she heard Culver's voice.

Outside the door, she heard Culver's voice, "Remember, things aren't over yet."
