My Second Husband novel Chapter 1124

Culver could not help but get out of bed and walk to the opposite side of Naomi. He squatted down slowly and looked at her.

It was the first time that he felt a slight throbbing in his heart.

Culver subconsciously stretched his hand out and wanted to touch the face of the person in front of him. However, in the next second, Naomi seemed to have felt a threat and waved a fist at him.

"Who's there?"

Culver was caught off guard. The throbbing in his heart instantly gave way to exasperation when Naomi's fist landed on him.

He clenched his fists and called out, "Naomi!"

Naomi's ears hurt from the loud voice and she could not help but cover her ears. Then, she slowly sat up.

"Why are you shouting instead of sleeping in the middle of the night?"

Before she finished her words, she saw the face of the man in front of her. There was clearly a red mark on his eye, the result from her punch. She swallowed down her words.

"Ah...you're awake?"

Culver glanced at her. "You must have done it on purpose!" he claimed.

"I swear I didn't!" Naomi shook her head and explained, "I was asleep. How could I do it on purpose? As for you, why are you squatting down here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

She thought about the incident in the afternoon, and hurriedly covered her chest with her arms.

"If you dare to touch me again, I'll show you no mercy!"

Naomi's red lips moved in front of his eyes. There was a mark on her lips from when he had kissed her in the afternoon. Seeing it made his heart tighten yet again, and his throat clogged up.

He hurriedly got up and turned around.

"I'm hungry. Go cook!"

Naomi was also hungry. She had not gone home since she was taken by Culver. As she had not eaten anything either, she was starving!

Therefore, she did not argue with him anymore.

"How am I supposed to cook if you don't release me?"

Hearing that, Culver quickly came over and helped her to unlock the handcuff.

Naomi, who had just regained her freedom, quickly got up and stretched her body. She was extremely tired!

Culver muttered to himself when he saw how happy she was.

"Although I've let you go, you can't run away. This door has a smart lock and only I can open it!"

Naomi rolled her eyes in her heart again. Not wanting to quarrel with him anymore, she went straight to the kitchen.

There were a lot of ingredients in the kitchen. Naomi found some ingredients that she wanted to cook and started preparing them. Then, she took out some clams to make some stew.

It had been a long time since she had eaten anything. She needed some nourishing food, but she could not eat food that was too oily, therefore a stew was the best choice.

She also did so because she wanted to spend more of that freak's money!

As she cooked, she inexplicably thought of Culver's sobbing. His pitiable voice seemed to be echoing in the empty room.

She remembered that he had been asking why no one loved him!

That freak only knew how to seek sympathy from others!

She sighed and went to prepare the necessary things for the roasted meat. As if he knew from the beginning what he wanted her to make, she noticed that there was a small barbecue stove in the kitchen.

She marinated the meat as the other dishes were cooking.

In the living room, Culver sat on the sofa and looked at Naomi's silhouette in the kitchen from time to time. His mind was in a mess.

He still could not tell whether it was a dream or a reality. How could he talk to a woman like that? It would be embarrassing if word got out!

As he was in deep thought, Naomi came out from the kitchen with the dishes.

"Let's eat!"

After he saw the simple dishes, Culver was finally certain that what happened the previous night was just a dream.

That was because Naomi in his dream had promised him that she would cook roasted meat and make pot pie for him.
