My Second Husband novel Chapter 1076

Of course, Naomi did not really want to talk about business with Bennett! It was just out of compassion that she wanted that poor woman, Frida, to sober up.

There were already so many pitiful people in the world.

Why would she waste her time on people that were not worth it?

Bennett arrived in Rosaville City the next day after the call.

The two of them had agreed to meet in a coffee shop. Bennett had even brought his wife along with him.

Naomi remembered that his wife was called Joanne!

She looked incredibly demure as she stood behind Bennett like a small animal.

Upon seeing Naomi, the two of them said something to each other. Then, Bennett kissed her on the cheek before he walked up to Naomi.

Joanne, on the other hand, sat at a smaller table at the corner quietly.

As she thought about it, Bennett came over.

"Miss George, right? Nice to meet you."

Naomi came to her senses and hummed in assent absent-mindedly.

"Mr. Chilton."

Bennett went straight to the point. After he ordered a cup of coffee, he immediately took out the documents from the briefcase he had brought with him.

"This is the information about our company. Miss George, please have a look."

Naomi took it, but did not open the document.

Bennett thought that Naomi was thinking about how small their company was, therefore he explained, "Although our company is small, we always strive for perfection in terms of completing projects. We are confident that we can cooperate with Valiant East to develop better projects..."

Naomi pursed her lips and finally opened her mouth.

"All this money that you've used on the company is all from Frida, am I right?"

Bennett's fingers paused, and the smile on his face froze instantly.

"You..." He opened his mouth and took a deep breath. He asked, "Have you heard those rumors?

We are..." "Frida told me that personally!" Naomi looked into Bennett's eyes.

"She told me that she had a fiance who had been waiting for her for many years!"

Bennett's eyes were filled with panic and avoidance, and his voice became sharp upon hearing Naomi's words.

"That's just her own wishful thinking. I didn't say that I would wait for her!"

"Then, why did you take her money?" Naomi felt a rush of anger welling up in her chest.

"I..." Bennett was rendered speechless by her question and hurriedly explained, "It's not like that. I really was going to wait for her, but she made a mistake and I..."

"Oh..." Naomi only felt the irony as she said, "Do you know why she made a mistake?"

Bennett was in a daze.

"She wanted freedom! What kind of job do you think she was doing that could let you build a company in just a few years time? Everything she did was with her blood, sweat and tears. She was going to give up her job to be with you. Did you know that? However, she could not leave, therefore she pulled off one last job. She didn't expect that last job to cost her her life!"

Bennett frowned tightly. He realized that Naomi was not here to discuss business with him.

Therefore, his tone became a little rude.

He said, "So what? I didn't force her to do all that."

Naomi smiled wryly as she retorted, "You didn't force her, but you tied her to an empty promise for your love. If you told her from the beginning that you would not wait for her, and that you had already gotten married three years ago, do you think she would still do all that?"

"That's none of your business." Bennett stood up angrily. "I thought Valiant East was a big company. It turns out that the staff of Valiant East likes to meddle in other people's business. It seems that we have nothing more to discuss!"

Then, he turned around and walked out.

Joanne, who waited for him, stood up as well.
