Pursuing My Ex Wife in Full Blooming Spring novel (Naomi) novel Chapter 95

Chapter 95 

Naomi intended to speak to Scott the next day, but now that he was here, there was no point stalling the conversation any longer. 

Donna knew her daughter like the back of her palm. She knew there was no changing Naomi’s mind, and although she knew Naomi was just treating him nicely out of courtesy, she could not help but feel infuriated for Naomi’s sake. 

This was the man who broke her daughter’s heart! 

She finally relented after studying the determined look on Naomi’s face for a moment. “Alright then. You two can talk, but don’t stay up too late, alright?” 

“Will do, Mom.” 

Donna retreated to her room. Naomi waited until she heard the door close, then turned to Scott and said, “Shall we speak outside?” 

“Sure.” He put down his cup and followed Naomi out the door. 

The two of them stood out in the hallway, staring down at the sprawling view beneath them. The balcony light bathed them in a warm glow, and combined with the rundown buildings around them, made the entire scene look like it came straight out of an 80s movie. 

Naomi stared at Scott. He was much taller than her, and she needed to lift her head every time she spoke to him. However, this meant that she could see every flicker of his expression whenever he spoke. 

Even after being with him for three years, Naomi never once felt a sense of panic or unnerve. Although she knew his heart belonged to Olivia, she never once feared that Scott would do anything out of line. He was a man of integrity. 

Naomi smiled and said, “I’m sorry for how my mother treated you just now. She’s still upset about our divorce.” 

Her expression was calm, just as she always was. Scott met her gaze and replied, “It’s okay.” 

He knew exactly why Donna acted the way she did. 

Naomi continued, “I know you didn’t want to let Master Chandler know about our divorce, and I respect that. I’ll continue to play along with your act, and if you need anything, feel free to let me know. I’ll try to oblige as much as I can, provided that it’s within reason, but you have to let me know beforehand. If you don’t tell me beforehand, I may not know how to act and might accidentally ruin your plans.” 

Although she did not know why Scott was hiding the truth from Chandler, she respected his wishes. Scott was always a smart and capable man, and she trusted his judgment. 

The look in Naomi’s eyes was sincere, as though in her mind, everyone else was as kind as she was. 

An earnest look crossed Scott’s face. “I want you to come to the event in Herland with me.” 

Naomi paused, then nodded. “Okay. Is there anything else?” 

“We’re planning to build a museum there. You’re one of the youngest and brightest wood carvers in this industry, so we might need you to stay there for a while, the shortest being a couple of months but it might become as long as one or two years.” 

Naomi furrowed her brows and considered this for a moment, then finally lifted her head to meet his 

gaze. 

“Truth be told, I don’t like traveling to faraway places. I’m okay with going there on a short business trip, but I don’t think I’d be comfortable staying there for a few years. Can you tell me the reason why we need to do that?” 

She needed a reason to convince her.
