Pursuing My Ex Wife in Full Blooming Spring novel (Naomi) novel Chapter 161

Naomi stayed still in Scott's arms. Her mind was blank and she was in a complete daze.

Scott listened to her heart beating and her breath pace before picking her up and placing her on the couch.

He looked at her. "Stay. Stop moving." His tone was slightly different. It was much deeper than usual. Slightly hoarse, even.

Naomi looked up at Scott and met his stern gaze.

At that moment, her heartbeat quickened.

She could not explain it, but his gaze intimidated her. She wanted to cower and escape. However, at that moment, she did not dare to move.

It was as if she had lost all her motor abilities. She could only look at him.

Scott noted how silly and adorable Naomi was, staring back at him. She looked very real to him at that moment. Gone was the formality she always deployed when dealing with him.

He touched her shoulders a little before getting up and heading to the bathroom.

Soon, the sound of water running brought Naomi slowly back to her senses.

Why did he hug her? Was he not dating Olivia? Why, if so, would he be so…intimate with her?

They had never had such close contact with each other throughout their marriage. Much to her surprise, he initiated such close contact only after the divorce. She could not understand.

Naomi's leg could not get wet, so taking a shower was quite troublesome. Scott carried her in. When Naomi saw the bathtub full of water, she immediately said, "I… Put me on the stool. I'll do it myself slowly."

She was not going to let him help her. She had to do it herself, no matter what.

Scott said nothing. He merely responded with a gruff hum and placed her on the stool.
