Pursuing My Ex Wife In Full Bloom Spring novel Chapter 144

Before Naomi could even reply, Belle added enthusiastically, "I can show you around town, Naomi! I know plenty of fun places!"

The look on her face was that of glee and excitement, as though she forgot all about needing to go home.

A vein throbbed on Dylan's forehead. He stepped forward, shoved Belle into the car, and snapped to the driver, "Call me once you bring her home."

The driver nodded. "Yes, sir."

The driver started the car. Belle wound down the window and called out to Naomi, "Please give me your number, Naomi, so I can call you!"

However, the next moment, the car peeled away before Naomi could even respond.

Naomi watched as the car disappeared in the distance, then turned to Dylan.

Dylan heaved a sigh of relief. "Finally she's gone."

Naomi glanced at the time. "It's already nine o'clock. Shall we get going?"

"Yes, of course!" Dylan finally went back to his carefree, cheerful self. He and Naomi got into his car, and he brought her to the place he told Scott on the phone that afternoon—Sicily Pub.

Naomi did not even ask where they were headed. Just as Dylan promised, he would not kidnap her or sell her to a brothel, so there was nothing she had to worry about. Instead, she spent the entire car ride thinking about work and was already beginning to forget about Belle.

Dylan, on the other hand, could not stop talking about Belle. He even thanked Naomi profusely for saving him. "Belle is obsessed with me and likes to follow me wherever I go. I know she means no harm, and she's just a naïve little girl. It's just annoying sometimes when she insists on following me around.

"It's embarrassing too, to be seen out in public with a child tagging along. That's why I keep trying to hide from her, and thank God you were there just now, Naomi. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to escape her.
