Chapter 163
Naomi took his hand off and poured him a glass of wine. “Doesn’t the nightlife make you feel alive? It makes people unwilling to go home.”
Brendan felt that he’d been mocked by her yet again. He could tell that Naomi was referring to how he didn’t like going home.
He was unable to do anything to Naomi, so he shot a cold glare at Ronald.
Ronald looked at Naomi strictly when he saw Brendan’s expression. He advised, “Naomi, places like these are inappropriate for good wives like you. You should go back with Brendan to the resort and get some rest!
“Look at Brendan. He’s such a great person and has such stunning looks. You should just remain his loyal Mrs. Ludwig. The nightlife has nothing to do with you.”
Ronald spoke as though he wasn’t the one who called Naomi and invited her out to have fun.
When Bailey saw Ronald lose any semblance of the backbone he might’ve had the second Brendan arrived, she kicked him. “Grow a backbone and stop embarrassing yourself.”
The three of them were on the same side. Bailey felt that Ronald giving in meant that both of them did so too.
However, she and Naomi would never give in.
After pouring him a glass, Naomi looked toward Ronald and asked, “When have I ever been a good wife?”
She wouldn’t dare to slap such a label on herself. The word “good” had nothing to do with her. “Wife” was worse than that.
Bailey cleared her throat and added, “Feisty girl.”
Naomi grinned at Bailey’s comment. However, Brendan’s expression was painful to look at.
Ronald broke into a cold sweat whenever Brendan’s expression soured. He advised her, “Naomi, please, just go back with Brendan?”
Naomi and Bailey were women, so Brendan wouldn’t do anything to them: However, he could skin him. His gaze terrified him.
Naomi took a fruit pick and put a piece of honeydew into her mouth. “Ronald, your ability to gauge the situation is atrocious. Can’t you see that Mr. Ludwig also wants to have fun?”
After she spoke, she turned and said, “Right, Mr. Ludwig?”
At Naomi’s jest, Brendan grabbed her chin and pulled her closer. He then leaned toward her and took the honeydew from her mouth.
be Naomi.
