Naomi gradually calmed down.
"I'm sorry for my attitude before we came here. I shouldn't have been so fierce to you. You helped me by lending me money, but I was being impolite to you."
Culver was staggered.
He couldn't understand her fickleness. There had still been a hint of disapproval in her voice when she told him to let go of her hand at the last minute.
Unexpectedly, she was apologizing to him at the moment.
He waved his hand and replied, "Don't mention it! Do I look like a petty person? Anyway, what's mine is yours, because in the future, you're going to be my—"
Before he could finish speaking, Naomi had added a few sentences.
"I've been thinking about the money. I think it's better for me to pay you back first. I'm sorry that I've caused you a lot of troubles recently."
Culver, who was originally filled with happiness, was instantly plunged into sorrow when she said
so.
"What did you say?"
"I'm telling you that we should end our deal."
Naomi was sick of feeling constrained by their deal since Culver would bring it up whenever there was a disagreement between them.
That kind of life, where she was compelled by others, was not what she wanted.
Upon hearing her words, Culver was furious.
"So, are you going to sever ties with me?"
"Sever ties with you?" Naomi thought about it for a moment and answered, "I'll probably do that. After all, I won't owe you money anymore."
"I won't allow you to do that!"
He grabbed Naomi's arm hard, as if he was refusing to let go of a precious treasure. Then, he looked keenly at her.
His grip on her arm tightened as well.
"Naomi, don't even think about leaving me!"
Feeling uncomfortable from being pulled, Naomi began to break free of his grasp.
"Culver, let go of me!"
Culver was unwilling to let go as he said to her, "Who do you think I am? Do you think you can leave whenever you want?"
Naomi finally realized that something was wrong.
"You've gotten the wrong idea. We ought to pay off our debts, no? Besides, you always remind me to pay the money back, right?"
Culver gritted his teeth in anger. "I've changed my mind, I don't want your money now. I'm the creditor, so I'll be making the call."
Naomi was at a loss for words.
It was only at the moment that she felt that she was right to call him a pervert.
In addition to the previous quarrel with Nelson just then, Naomi felt that she was mentally and physically exhausted.
"Then, what exactly do you want?"
She got fed up with all the arguments between them.
Culver said, "I want you to stay by my side."
Naomi frowned. She asked, "What for? To cook for you? You really haven't eaten anything delicious, have you? There are many accomplished chefs in the world. Speaking of which, I know a skillful old chef, who is working at a branch under my family's management. I can help you to contact him and see if any of his apprentices is willing to-"
"I don't want that!"
Culver decisively rejected her without waiting for her to finish talking.
"Why? Do you prefer girls to cook for you? Well then, it just so happens that he has a beautiful apprentice, and she is single. I'll call and ask for you tomorrow."
Naomi was being serious when it came to fixing him up with another girl.
Moreover, the more she said, the more excited she became, as though she really planned to find a girlfriend for him.
Culver got even sulkier. In the next second, he suddenly pulled Naomi over. Then, he turned around and pressed her against the car door. After that, he kissed her on the lips.
Naomi was dumbfounded. His face was so close to hers and his hot lips reminded her of their current state.
With that being said, she came to her senses.
She thought, "What the hell is this pervert doing?"
She opened her mouth and bit him hard on the lips. Culver was in pain, but he failed to let go of her. On the contrary, he deepened the kiss despite the fact that his lips were bleeding.
