Pursuing My Ex Wife in Full Blooming Spring novel (Naomi) novel Chapter 234

Scott had one hand in his pocket and his phone in the other. His gaze was fixated on the front, but he walked slow and steady as though to keep up with Naomi. The two of them walked side-by-side in perfect synchrony.

Although Naomi was staring at him, he did not seem to notice. Seeing that he did not turn around, Naomi called out his name, "Scott."

However, at that exact moment, the door of a nearby building flew open. A group of people spilled out onto the streets, bringing with them the noise and bustle from inside the building, which drowned out Naomi's voice entirely.

Naomi glanced at them. The chattering people's voices echoed through the entire street. She knew Scott would not hear her if she continued calling him.

She glanced at his sleeve, then reached out and gently tugged on it.

Scott froze in his steps.

An unreadable expression crossed his face.

The truth was, he had heard her calling him; he was not deaf, after all, but he had deliberately pretended he did not hear her and ignored her.

He had secretly hoped for her to call him again so that he could hear his name coming out of her mouth or do something else to get his attention.

All of a sudden…

He felt someone tug on his sleeve. Although Naomi did not touch him directly, he could still feel the warmth on her skin against his, as though the heat from her body spread right through her fingertips and into his shirt.

His heart leaped in his chest, and then it began to race.

Naomi had something to say to him, but she did not expect him to stop all of a sudden as though something was wrong. She paused, then instinctively let go of his sleeve. She finally realized how inappropriate it was of her to do this.

She instinctively took a step away to put some distance between her and Scott. The sensation of her fingers on his sleeve disappeared.

Scott turned to stare at her.
