Pursuing My Ex Wife in Full Blooming Spring novel (Naomi) novel Chapter 228

Naomi's eyes widened as she quickly looked down. Realizing that her hand was on Scott's, she quickly pulled away as though she just had an electric shock. Just like when they were in the car that night and Dylan put her hand on his forehead.

It was as quick and frantic.

She retreated a few steps backward. Gone was her usual calm composure. She also forgot about the injury on her feet.

Her frantic retreat tripped her over, which caused her to lose balance and fall backward.

She looked in fear and subconsciously tried to grab onto something by her side to stop her fall.

Right at this moment, Scott went forward and stopped her fall by putting his arm around her waist. He scooped her up, and she was instantly in his arms.

All this happened in a hot second.

Naomi was stunned.

Her heart was racing. She never thought she would fall. Heck, she did not expect this to happen at all! She froze in Scott's arms.

Scott stood still. As he held Naomi's soft body against his body, he could smell the floral aroma from her body. His expression changed when he was hugging her. His gaze was no longer calm.

The entire room was in silence.

The lights slowly dimmed and switched off, enclosing them in darkness.

Naomi lost her usual composure as her heart pounded against her ribcage. Her brain was in a mess. She did not know how to deal with it or where to even begin.

When everything was in darkness, she looked around. She came to her senses.

"I—I'm sorry."

Naomi wanted to take Scott's temperature and he was cooperative, but she screwed up. She never thought that this would happen, to be fair. Accidents were unpredictable.
