My Second Husband novel Chapter 969

In the evening, Naomi laid on the bed and thought about Nelson's words from just a while ago about how nervous he had been.

His words had been sweet and warm.

She took out her mobile phone, and she could not help but want to send another message to Nelson. However, as soon as she picked up her phone, a message came in.

It read, 'Have you received the flowers? You are not in good health. You'd better rest early! Good night!'

Naomi suddenly shot up from the bed again.

She had forgotten about Benedict's flowers!

"Didn't I make myself very clear to him? Why is he still behaving like this?" she thought to herself as she recalled about the flowers.

She tried to call Benedict, but his phone seemed to be set up to automatically reject her calls. Then, she called him again several times more. Just as she wanted to call Benedict again, another message came.

It read, 'My parents are resting, stop calling! Besides, if you're calling me to scold me, then I

don't want to hear it!'

Naomi frowned and texted, 'If you know that I'll scold you, then why do you still do it? I've told you that I only care for you as my younger brother, I...'

'Naomi George!' Benedict texted back, sounding angry.

'I know that you don't like me. However, you can't control whether I like you or not! I just want to continue liking you. I just want to pursue you!'

Naomi was rendered speechless.

She took a deep breath.

Then, she replied, 'Actually, you're still young now. Perhaps you have this kind of feeling towards me because you rely on me a lot. As you grow older, you might have other thoughts...'

'No, I won't! That's enough. You have to go to work tomorrow, and I have to go to school! I will strive to graduate from university in advance before the end of this semester so that I can go work in your company! I won't reply to your messages anymore. Good night.'

Naomi was dumbfounded.

After that, no matter what messages she sent him, he no longer replied!

Naomi felt exasperated.

However, on second thought, she realized that he had mentioned graduating early.

He was now in his sophomore year. It would be incredibly difficult for him to complete another half of his syllabus in advance within the next month!

As for her, she had mainly practiced self-defense and only took lessons in specialized courses that were required for the heir of the Granger family.

Originally, according to her father's plan, she was going to study abroad like Sugar Bun.

However, Sugar Bun was soft-hearted and he was worried that if both him and Naomi left home, there would be no one else to take care of their parents at home.

Therefore, Naomi took the initiative to stay and work in the company!

According to their plan, she would go abroad for further studies when Sugar Bun came back. However, she was reluctant to do so as that was not where her interests lay.

However, their family's tradition could not be abandoned.

As she thought about it, she felt a little more at ease.

Benedict would not be able to finish all his studies so quickly. He was just being hot-headed, thus he would be able to think things through in the future!

In the morning, Cynthia sat in her office and looked at the documents that Naomi had brought in.

"These are the indicators that I've completed this month, and these are the ones that I'm in the middle of negotiating. However, I've basically reached a preliminary agreement with them!"

Cynthia flipped through the pages, all of which had their details clearly written. There were quite a few companies, all of whom were good partners.

She was a little surprised.

Naomi saw Cynthia's expression and added, "These were not due to my father's connections. I went to look for them on my own! You can investigate me!"

Cynthia pursed her lips and said, "Alright, very well. You've won our bet. What would you like me to do?"
