Boomerang Love

The maids greeted Brendan. He had his hands in his pockets. It was obvious that he was more cheery than before. He wasn't looking as serious as he used to be.

He looked absolutely satisfied.

"Mr. Ludwig is in a good mood today."

"Yeah! He even smiled just now. It was my first time seeing him smile."

Naomi listened in on the maids' hushed chatter. Of course he was in a good mood, she thought. He had tormented her all night.

Moments later, Jennifer served the soup to Brendan and Naomi at the dining table. Naomi's eyes widened.

Even though Jennifer hadn't even reached the dining table, Naomi had already caught a whiff of the celery and chicken from afar, She put her cutleries down and looked at Jennifer immediately. She urged her not to serve the soup.

"We're good without the soup, Jennifer. These are enough for us."

However, Jennifer looked like she had been put in a tough spot. "This was freshly brought over by Mrs. Ludwig yesterday, Ms. Naomi. She reminded me again and again to make sure Mr. Ludwig eats it."

Naomi responded, "He doesn't need to have anything so nutritious."

If he did, she might not be able to get out of bed anymore.

At first, Jennifer was taken aback by Naomi's response and didn't understand what she meant.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Then, Jennifer beamed when she finally realized that Brendan had affirmed his union with Naomi. "I understand, Mrs. Ludwig. I'll keep the soup."

Jennifer turned around, smiling from ear to ear. She looked as if she was about to expect a grandchild.

Brendan sat across from Naomi. The terrified look on her face made him smirk. Fearlessly, he stroked her calf under the table.

Naomi was tickled. She scooped a bowl of oatmeal for him and prompted, "Behave yourself. Here, have this."

A short while later, before they could finish their meal, Heather called. She rang Brendan up first.

"I made soup for you yesterday, Brendan. Have you had it?"

Without waiting for his reply, she continued, "Don't forget about that promise you made in front of everyone, Brendan. You said that you would get Naomi pregnant by New Year's, so that next year I can...

Heather couldn't even finish her statement before Brendan hung up on her. Chapter 187

In the next second, Heather rang Naomi up. Heather wasn't her biological mother, so Naomi still had to maintain a certain level of politeness with her.

With that, Naomi didn't wait for Heather to say anything. She offered Heather the information right away. Yes, he's had the soup. He had an entire bowl of it."

go to the doctor's?"

Naomi answered Heather in a rebellious voice, "I might not be able to handle it if the doctor were to prescribe him with anything else."

From the other end of the call, Heather questioned, "Was it effective? Does he need to Heather was thrilled. "Does that mean that I can be hopeful about having a grandchild, Naomi?"

Naomi answered while eating her oatmeal, "Yes, yes. Of course you can."

Whenever Heather made any mention of a grandchild, Naomi couldn't help but wish that she were a magician. At least she could then make a baby appear out of nowhere.

Heather was relieved to hear Naomi's confirmation. "Thanks for your efforts, Naomi. Don't worry, this baby is just going to be a temporary resident in your tummy.

"Once you've given birth, it won't get in the way of your work. You won't have to worry about the baby."

Heather made it sound like Naomi was already expecting.

Naomi uttered some perfunctory responses and gave her a bunch of reassurance. She also agreed to go e

shopping with her later on. It was only then that Heather ended the call feeling satisfied.

After they finished their lunch a little while later, Naomi got ready to drive herself out. Brendan suggested, "I'll take you."

Since he wanted to drive her, she simply agreed.

While they were on their way, Brendan was in an exceptionally good mood, No matter if it was m NO Jason or someone else who called him, he spoke in a more jovial voice than before.

Anyone who heard him would be able to tell how he was feeling.

"Did you hit the jackpot, Brendan?"

"Did you have good news from home, Mr. Ludwig?"

Brendan didn't answer them, but he was still full of joy.

Naomi watched him from the passenger seat. She commented om coldly, "Come on, you're the boss of Ludwig Corporation and a scion of the Ludwig family. Don't act like you're still green."

Brendan turned toward her and replied, "I have seen all sorts of things in the world, but I've never encountered someone like you."

Just as he said that, he stopped the car at the entrance to the department store.

Naomi spotted Heather from a distance away.

She unbuckled her seat belt to get out of the car. However, Brendan didn't unlock the car door. He asked,
