Chapter 70
Donna furrowed her brow and began, “Your complexion-”
“Mrs. Goodwin,” came Charles‘ voice just as Donna spoke.
Donna turned.
Charles walked in with a warm smile on his face.
“Auntie, we have a caregiver here tonight. I’ll take you back to the hotel, and then I’ll stay at the hospital.”
“Huh? You’ll stay?” Donna was surprised.
“Yes. You’ve been working hard these past few days. With me and the caregiver here, you and Mr.
Goodwin can rest easy.
“How… How can that be…”
Donna subconsciously looked at Naomi. Surprisingly, Naomi did not refuse.
Donna’s senses tingled with slight suspicion when Charles added, “I just talked to Naomi. After all, you’re both getting older, and she doesn’t want you to worry, so I’ll stay at the hospital. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of her.”
Understanding this, Donna did not feel uneasy anymore. After thinking for a moment, she looked at her daughter’s calm face, nodding. “Well, if the two of us fall ill, it would be even harder for this child.
“Charles, thank you for taking care of Naomi.
“Not at all. It’s what I should do.”
“You’re just too kind. I trust you, so there’s no need to say more. Naomi, I’ll be going back to the hotel. Charles, you don’t have to send me off.”
Donna did not say much and left with her bag.
Charles said to Naomi, “Rest well. I’ll come after I escort Mrs. Goodwin back to the hotel.”
Naomi nodded, her gaze filled with gratitude.
He knew everything she wanted to say and what she wanted to do. He took care of every detail for her.
Naomi thought she could give Charles a chance.
She withdrew her gaze and looked at the night outside. The figure of the man with deep eyes appeared
in her mind.
Naomi’s heart fluttered. No more meetings, no more connections. Everything would end come morning light.
Chapter 70
212
The following morning, Olivia received a call from her father, informing her that Scott had agreed to collaborate with the Carvers. The contract was already signed, too.
At that moment, her heart leaped with warmth. Logically, he would not respond so quickly–she understood him well. In matters of business, he always conducted himself professionally. Yet, in just a day, he agreed. Was it because of last night’s incident? A compensation to her? Besides this reason, she could not find any other explanation. She was delighted, overjoyed.
