My Second Husband novel Chapter 1141

Naomi asked incredulously, "What did you say?"

"Don't you want to go home? I've been in Rosaville City for so long, but I haven't seen your parents yet. So, I'll go back with you tomorrow."

"I don't think that's a good idea."

Naomi didn't want Culver to go back with her.

She always felt that she and Culver belonged to two different worlds. It irked her to think that she was connected to him in various aspects of life.

Although the Granger family didn't need to be afraid of him, she didn't want her parents to be worried about her.

If she were to bring him back, everyone would think that he was her boyfriend. That would cause a lot of trouble.

Culver frowned as he asked, "Why do you seem displeased?"

She was stumped by his question.

There was a heavy atmosphere in the corridor.

Naomi shook her head and said, "No! We're friends, so of course I'm pleased to hear that. It's just that it's my personal affairs, so it's not very convenient for outsiders to know about it."

Culver said, "I'm not an outsider."

His tone had no hesitation.

He acted as if they were extremely close, but to Naomi, he was indeed an outsider.

However, the situation was urgent, so she didn't have much time to think about it.

"Yes, you are certainly not an outsider. You are my best friend now. I don't want you to know the distressing incidents that have happened in my family because you are so outstanding, and I'm afraid that I will feel inferior to be your friend."

After she had said so, she thought to herself, "Ew, that's gross!"

She didn't expect that she could say such cloying words. However, she had no choice but to say so as she wanted to blarney him into giving up his idea of following her back home.

Culver was very satisfied to hear that. He answered, "I didn't expect you to care so much about me!"

Naomi was rendered speechless by his smugness.

Naomi thought, "Well, you can think whatever you wish. Anyway, I'm going home!"

She said, "Wait for me here. Let's head back to Greene City together after I've done ironing out my personal affairs."

"Okay!" Culver listened to her obediently.

Naomi, on the other hand, felt that there was an unwanted tractability in his manner. With his personality, he looked compliant and adorable to Naomi, just like a docile puppy. Suddenly, she felt the urge to pinch his face.

As she thought about it, she stretched out her hand.

When she was a child, she had developed the habit of pinching the faces of the two younger boys around her, Eddison and Benedict.

After they had grown up, she hadn't felt such an urge for a long time.

"What do you want to do?"

She heard his voice. Only then did she come back to her senses.

She thought, "Oh my God. I must have lost my mind. Why would I let my guard down in front of this pervert? Why would I want to pinch his face? I must have gone crazy!"

She hurriedly withdrew her hand and explained, "It's not what you think."

Culver asked with a smile, "How do you know what I'm thinking?"

"You want to pinch my face, don't you?"

Naomi's heart skipped a beat as she said, "No, I didn't do it on purpose. I'm just-"

"Feel free to do so!"

Upon hearing his words, Naomi's jaw dropped. "What?" she asked.

"You can pinch my face! I'm willing to let you do that."

As soon as Culver finished talking, he bent over with his face approaching hers. As a result, she felt the caress of his breath on her cheek.

It was undeniable that her heart was palpitating at the moment.

"Um, there's no need for that."

She ran away.

As she went far away, Culver looked at her back intently while trying to rub his own cheeks with his hands.

He was discombobulated. It seemed that she wanted to pinch him just now, but she held back at the last moment. He wondered if there was any problem with his face.

He told himself, "Perhaps I should start using some skincare products."
