Boomerang Love

He felt as if those words were meant for him and that she was expressing her feelings to him indirectly It seemed as if she wanted to tell him that she had made a lot of efforts and sacrifices in their marriage. If he chose to get divorced, he would have to deal with the consequences,

"Ms. Goodwin, I understand all the reasoning, but I just can't accept it! Tom wants to divorce me and marry a young lady.

"But what about me? What did I sacrifice all those years for this family and him for, then? Should I find a young "Why not? I don't see why you shouldn't," Naomi replied.

man foo?"

On the other end, the woman chuckled and said, "Ms. Goodwin, your emotional intelligence is impressive. I love chatting with you."

"I've learned a lot from you myself," Naomi answered.

Brendan's face darkened.

in the future.

Naomi was proficient in handling divorce cases, and she worked hard to earn money. Maybe it was all for another young man in "Ms. Goodwin, you're still young, so you don't understand. Tom and I met in our 208, Back then, he was."

As Naomi listened attentively, she noticed a stiffness in her neck. She lay down on the bed with her phone.

After lying down, she glanced at Brendan and whispered, "My client is going through a divorce. Let me comfort her first."

Brendan gave her a disdainful look, then continued reading his book.

Annie spent the whole night talking to Naomi. She told her about how she and her husband had met 30 years ago and delved into various aspects of their life until Naomi fell asleep.

Brendan was awake the whole time, and he nearly broke down listening to Annie.

At this moment, he realized that Naomi's calm demeanor and preference for speaking less were notable qualities.

Otherwise, he would have been driven insane.

When the vintage clock on the bedside table struck midnight, Annie finally sighed and said, "Ms. Goodwin, you've been listening to me all night. I appreciate your patience.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"It's getting late. You should rest early. You have to work tomorrow.

Picking up Naomi's phone, Brendan gave a noncommittal hum in reply.

On the other end, Annie was too focused on venting her emotions and didn't realize that she was talking to a man. After saying a few more things to Brendan, she finally ended the call.

He threw Naomi's phone aside, glancing at her as she slept. Then, he thought about how she had happily clung to his arm as she urged him to have a baby together.

Brendan's expression turned extremely grim.

She would always make promises to him, but when he hesitated, she would ignore him.

Brendan was so angry that when her leg accidentally touched his, he kicked it away without hesitation.

After turning off the lights, Brendan lay down quietly next to Naomi. Naomi snuggled into Brendan's embrace and murmured, "Brendan, you. Don't..." Each time she reached an important word, Brendan couldn't clearly hear what she was saying. But her tone didn't sound promising.

"Brendan."

"Yes," he responded indifferently, pulling up the blanket around her.

The night was quiet. As he looked at the night light on the bedside table, Brendan recalled some memories of the past.

"Brendan, you're more despicable than me."

"Without all this and the Ludwig family, would we have ended up like this?"

Back then, he had slapped Naomi. That was the first and only time in his life that he had hit a woman. He never thought that he would ever slap her.

Unwilling to think about the past, Brendan turned off the night light and closed his eyes.

The next morning, Naomi woke up to see Brendan already dressed, standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows and fixing his tie Seeing that he was ready to leave, Naomi said, "Brendan, let's make up for last week tonight."

She had planned to be intimate last night, but she had fallen asleep without noticing.

Brendan ignored her as he put on his suit jacket and left.

Jason and the driver were already waiting for him downstairs.

After getting into the car, Brendan took the documents from Jason. He asked calmly, "What happened last night?

Jason, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned to look behind and told him, "Ms. Yates' mother had a medical emergency last night, but it's been sorted out now. Her younger brother is now temporarily staying at a teacher's house Following that, Jason added, "Ms. Yates situation doesn't seem good either."

"Keep an eye on her."

Brendan, she finally ended the call.

He threw Nord's phone aside, glancing at her as she slept. Then, he thought about how she had happily clung to his arm as she urged him to have a baby together.

Brendan's expression turned extremely grim.

Jason and the driver were already waiting for him downstairs After getting into the car, Brendan took the documents from Jason. He asked calmly, "What happened last night?"

Jason, who was sitting in the passenger seat, tumed to look behind and told him,

"Ms. Yates' mother had a medical emergency last night, but it's been sorted out now. Her younger brother is now temporarily staying at a teacher's house,"

Following that, Jason added, "Ms. Yates situation doesn't seem good either."

"Keep an eye on her."

"Alright. By the way, the handover procedures for the legal affairs have been completed. From now on, Solaris Law Firm will be responsible for the company's legal affairs."

Brendan showed a hint of disdain as he said, "Naomi only handles divorce cases. She doesn't know anything about corporate law. From now on, all legal matters will be handled by me."

"Understood," Jason replied Back at the villa, Naomi headed straight to the court after getting ready.

She had a divorce case to attend to today, one that Brendan still looked down upon.

Apart from the cases for Ludwig Corporation, almost all of her cases were divorce cases or civil cases regarding disputes.

Although she had reminded Brendan to return home that night, he hadn't seemed to take it seriously, Naomi finished her work and returned home. Even as she got ready to sleep, Brendan still hadn't returned.

In the following days, he didn't return.

He had chosen to ignore her completely.

On Friday night, after having dinner with Reuben and several other leaders, Brendan was about to tell the driver to take him back to Yellowind Bay when Jason urgently knocked on the car's window and said, "Mr. Ludwig, something has happened to Ms. Yates."

Meanwhile, Naomi had just returned home from work.

Jenter told her excitedly. "Mrs, Ludwig, Mr. Ludwig has just called to say that he'll be back today,"

Jennifer knew that he was too shy to call Naound directly.

Naomi handed her bag to Jennifer. She responded Juppily, "Alright, I'll go upstairs and freshen up."

She took a shower, put on a set of new pajamas, and waited eagerly. But Brendan still hadn't returned even E though it was almost 11:00 pm.

Naomi lost the mood to continue working. She tossed the case files onto the table.

She picked up her phone and called Jason. She asked, "Jason, where's Brendan? Wasn't he supposed to come back today?"

Calling Jason was her only choice.

After "that incident“, Brendan had stopped answering her calls. If there was anything, Jason would convey the message to him.

Naomi found it somewhat self-deprecating that they didn't contact each other even though they were a married couple.

Jason answered, "Ms. Goodwin, Mr. Ludwig is busy taking care of some matters right now."

After a brief pause, he added, "He might not be able to go back tonight. You shouldn't wait for him."

Upon hearing that Brendan wouldn't be coming back, Naomi became irritated and hung up the call.

Naomi slammed her phone on the desk. She was angry because Brendan had given her false hope about coming back and then disappointed her. Everything was ready. She had taken a shower and changed her clothes. However, he didn't come back.

If things persisted this way, she might never have a child with Brendan Time had passed quickly. What felt like a year ago had now narrowed down to just a few months for them to have a chance to conceive. Feeling uneasy, Naomi picked up her phone and called Brendan's cousin, Ronald Ludwig

"Ronald are you free right now? Can you check what Brendan is busy with tonight?"

On the other end, Ronald responded, "Sure thing. Give me three minutes."

Ronald was Brendan's cousin and a classmate of both Neom and Bailey, Between Naomi and Brendan, Ronald consistently took Naomi's side.

A while later, Ronald red bark.

Hearing Ronald's update, Naomi's expression turned cold, and shem with selferhockery. She had smiled actually thought that she could keep Brendan's

In the ward, Chloe still hadn't regained consciousness.

Brendan took a quick look at his watch. It was nearly midnight.

His expression darkened Jason whispered to him, "Mr. Ludwig, Ms. Goodwin has just called "

Brenden gave a noncommittal lum.

"Why don't you head back first? 11 keep an eye on Ms. Yates here."

Brendan let out as Suddenly, Chloe frowned and regained consciousness.

Once she opened her eyes and saw Brendan, tears welled up in her eyes as she called out to him.
