Chapter 41
Brendan’s words left the Sabella family members visibly uneasy.
The maids exchanged knowing glances. There was finally someone dealing with their usually domineering and dismissive heiress, Madelyn.
Patrick’s expression darkened as he faced Brendan. “Brendan, Naomi is your wife. She came to my house
and caused a scene. You owe us an explanation. Otherwise, we won’t let it slide easily.”
Brendan turned to Naomi and said, “Starting a fight in someone else’s house is indeed going too far. Next
time, if you want to fight, do it outside.”
His clear favoritism and protection of Naomi infuriated Clement. “Brendan, are you willing to go against
the Sabella family just because of Naomi?”
Surveying the room, Brendan replied, “I’ll compensate for the damaged items caused by Naomi, but the medical expenses are on you. When she attacked Bailey this afternoon, Bailey had to pay for her own
medical treatment.”
Brendan never suffered losses without any reason. While Naomi was at fault for the violence, the Sabella family should address Madelyn’s ruthless actions first.
The mention of Bailey brought an unpleasant expression to the Sabella family’s faces. They hadn’t anticipated Naomi to stand up for Bailey in this manner.
Seeing Brendan’s clear stance, Naomi turned and faced Madelyn. With a stern voice, she warned,” Madelyn, if you dare to touch Bailey again, I’ll make you pay the price.”
Madelyn’s face paled.
With that, Brendan ruffled Naomi’s hair and questioned, “Have you vented enough? If you’re done, we
should head home.”
What Brendan really meant was that he could continue to help Naomi manage the situation if she hadn’t
vented enough of her anger.
With Bailey’s presence, Naomi glanced at Brendan and said, “We should go.”
