Pursuing My Ex Wife in Full Blooming Spring novel (Naomi) novel Chapter 186

He was looking straight at her instead of his laptop like he should have.

And on top of that, he was staring at her with an expression she never saw before. It was as though he was staring at her for a long time now. His gaze was steadfast and clear, as though he knew exactly what he wanted and what he was going to do.

However, Naomi could not help feeling scared by this. Scott's gaze was dark and penetrating, and she could not make out a single hint of his emotions. Naomi could not tell exactly what he was thinking, and the fact that he could do anything to her at that moment terrified her.

Naomi did not dare to move, nor did she even dare to retreat to the bathroom. It felt like any movement of hers would trigger something life-changing.

She forced herself to peel her gaze away from him and kept muttering to herself to stay calm. She should not be intimidated by him.

Scott watched as Naomi's expression changed from one of shock to panic, then finally to hostility. Every shift in her mood was evident in her crystal-clear eyes. He closed his laptop, got out of his chair, and made his way toward her.

Scott watched as a look of relief crossed her face, as though she just escaped from the claws of a monster. He took his phone out of his pocket and glanced at the screen.
