My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) novel Chapter 1156

Naomi was stunned for a moment before she spoke with a smile.

"Even if it wasn't you, I'd still save a stranger I saw by the roadside if something happened to them!"

Loraine was amused by her words.

"Don't think that I don't know about your intentions."

Naomi felt embarrassed, "Didn't you already know from the beginning? I didn't do anything bad, therefore there's nothing to hide!"

Loraine was surprised by her frankness, "Well, I didn't expect you to be so candid."

After that, she held Naomi up and said, "That's exactly why you're silly."

Naomi didn't understand, "Why is that?"

"Aren't you silly? You just helped me and got yourself injured. If you directly said it was for me, maybe I would tell you about Mr. Olsen's childhood as a way to express my gratitude."

Naomi was baffled.

"You're not that easy to be fooled, are you?"

Loraine burst into laughter, "You never know until you try. Anyways, let me take you to the hospital." "No need. It's just a minor wound. I'll go home and apply some ointment on it, then it'll be fine."

"No way! I'll be guilty if I don't bring you to the hospital. Moreover, Mr. Olsen will definitely reprimand me if he finds out. You'd better not put me in an awkward position."

In the end, Naomi had to comply with her request and went to the hospital with her.

The wound was indeed not too serious. There was only a gash at the back of Naomi's leg. The doctor sterilized and bandaged her wound. Then, he prescribed some medicine before they returned to the house.

Loraine called the chauffeur to pick them up, hence they didn't have to walk back.

On their way home, Loraine chatted with Naomi about the Olsen family.

"I started working for the Olsen family slightly before Madam Marilyn married Mr. Norman. I've watched Young Master Culver grow up. He was really obedient when he was a child."

Naomi realized that Loraine was willing to talk despite her initial wariness of Naomi. Listening to her words quietly, she didn't dare to interrupt her.

However, she couldn't hold back any longer when she heard about Culver's disposition.

"Was he really obedient?"

She thought to herself, "He is obviously a pervert now. How was he obedient back then?"

"Of course! He was like a living doll! He was good-tempered and he was always all smiles."

"What?! Are we talking about the same person?"

Naomi couldn't believe her.

"I'm telling the truth. It was not until later that he became composed due to all the pressure. Undeniably, everyone will change sooner or later."

"Then, he really has changed a lot."

Naomi muttered in a low voice.

Exasperated, Loraine continued to ask, "What else do you want to know?"

Naomi thought for a moment before she answered, "Truth be told, it's not that I'm eager to know about him, but I'm just a bit curious. I've heard that Madam Marilyn has been arranging blind dates for Culver lately. Is that true?"

Loraine looked at Naomi inquisitively.

"Are you worried about your relationship with Mr. Olsen?"

Naomi was at a loss for words.

Truth be told, she was wondering when her freedom would come.

With that being said, she couldn't tell Loraine about her true feelings. Thus, she pretended to be upset by the news of Culver dating other girls.

"Loraine, I'm concerned about-"

Loraine said teasingly, "Yeah, I know. The development of your relationship with him all this while can't escape my attention. He truly dotes on you a lot and depends on you too, so you don't have to worry. I know him well and he won't let anyone who is good to him down."

Naomi was rendered speechless.

She didn't want Culver to dote on her at all.

"I'm just a little worried."

Loraine laughed before saying, "There's no need for you to worry. He has been refusing to meet those girls. I don't even know what I should do to bring it up to him."

Naomi's eyes lit up at once, "If so, I'll lend you a hand."

Loraine looked concernedly at her, saying, "Miss George, are you all right?"

Culver spoke no more. Feeling sorry for Naomi, he kept staring at her leg, his heart aching for her. Consequently, his insistent gaze made her blush.

She quickly changed the subject, "Are you free tomorrow?"

Culver quirked his eyebrow and asked, "Do you have something that needs my help?"

"Maybe I do. Just tell me, are you free tomorrow?"

"Hmm, I guess so!"

"That's great. I want to go somewhere for a meal tomorrow. Will you accompany me?"

Upon hearing her invitation, Culver was bemused and thrilled at the same time.

He wondered if it would be a date between them.

Even though the two of them had different thoughts about the situation, they were both elated.

Culver nodded as he agreed, "Sure!"

"Then, it's a deal. Don't forget about it tomorrow!"

After saying that, she made an excuse to end the conversation with Culver and got back into her bed.

Culver was not aware of her scheming little mind. After he went out, he called Aaron instantaneously.

"Cancel all of my appointments for tomorrow."

Aaron was astonished. "Mr. Olsen, what's wrong? There will be an important project tomorrow, and we've been preparing for it for quite a long time. If we cancel it, I'm afraid that-"

"Tell the person- in- charge that I'll personally apologize to him on the day after tomorrow. We'll talk face to face."

Only then did Aaron nod and reply, "Okay, I'll arrange for it now."

Culver added, "Wait! Loraine ran into two robbers today. They've already been taken away by the police. Send someone to investigate them and see if they have any previous convictions for a similar offence. Find out more about it and make sure they get what they deserve!"

Aaron asked, "Sir, have they offended you?"

Culver was not someone who liked to poke his nose into other people's business in the past. Normally, he would not interfere as long as it wouldn't affect the interests of the Olsen family. Businessmen valued profit and being in a neutral position was the most profitable.

Nonetheless, he was starting to meddle in other people's affairs at the moment. That really came as a surprise to Aaron.
