Boomerang Love

Naomi turned toward Brendan and chuckled. "I'm here to go shopping with your mom. What are you thinking of doing?"

Brendan leaned closer to her. She lifted her hand and pinched his jaw. "You're getting bolder and bolder, Brendan,"

Right after saying that, she leaned in and bit him hard on his lower jaw. Then, she pressed the unlock button in the car and pushed his face away. She then opened the car door and got out proudly.

Heather saw Naomi getting out of the car. She was all smiles as she approached her.

Brendan, on the other hand, wound down the car window. He touched his face and said to Naomi from behind her, "I'll get even with you later tonight for biting me."

Heather Upon observing the situation,ave Brendan a stern stare. "Hurry on, Brendan. You need to earn money to look after Naomi and my grandchild."

Naomi turned around and noticed that Brendan was still massaging his face. She giggled and said, "See you. Goodbye."

After Naomi bid her goodbyes, Heather linked arms with her. She was beaming from ear to ear.

"Naomi, I saw some cribs and cute baby clothing the last time I was here. I'll bring you to have a look in a bit."

Naomi was not amused. She was just wondering why Heather insisted on bringing her shopping today. It turned out that she wanted to bring her here.

It was just that there was nothing certain about her getting pregnant yet..

"It's a bit too soon, Mom."

"It's not soon at all. Time flies, and you'll have a baby just as fast."

As long as they did it once, the second and third times would be sure to follow. Matters like this were addictive. So, she knew that she would be able to have a grandchild in her arms soon.

After watching Naomi and Heather enter the department store, Brendan started his car and headed to the office.

Jason was shocked to see Brendan being in high spirits. He had worked for Brendan for so many years. This was actually his first time seeing him in such a good mood.

The crucial thing was that he had teeth marks on the side of his face, resembling a love bite.

At the department store, Naomi was on pins and needles. She watched Heather as she purchased a bunch of baby products and clothes.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

It was as if Heather was already certain that she was going to have a grandchild. Despite not showing any signs that she was expecting, Naomi was unable to convince Heather otherwise.

At the same time, the pressure was on.

At last, when Heather was done shopping, she left the address to Yellowind Bay for the staff to deliver the goods over. Then, she dragged Naomi along to have some good food.

They had just stepped out from the shop when they bumped into Maximus. He was walking from the opposite direction with a group of people crowding around him.

He was a newly-appointed manager. Hence, he was currently doing various field inspections.

He was just done with today's inspections. He looked up and spotted Naomi and Heather exiting the maternity and baby store up ahead.

He felt a strange tug in his heart when he saw them exiting the store.

Thereafter, he approached them with a smile. He greeted, "Hi, Mrs. Ludwig. Hi, Naomi."

Now that they were done with the inspections, Ryan dismissed the reports and some of the employees.

A few other managers who conducted the inspections together with Maximus saw that he had bumped into an acquaintance, so they excused themselves from dinner. They claimed that they wanted to return home for some family time since it was Saturday. With that, they said their goodbyes and left.

After Maximus was done speaking with his colleagues, he turned to Heather and Naomi once again. He checked the time on his wristwatch and said, "Mrs. Ludwig, Naomi, it's almost time for dinner. Let me treat you both!"

Then, he continued, "Furthermore, I should've paid you a visit sooner, Mrs.

Ludwig."

Naomi was about to turn Maximus's kind offer down when Heather replied ina manner. It's such

a coincidence to be able to bump into you today. Naomi and I shall take you up on your offer, then."

Previously, Maximus had proposed to the Goodwin family.

Naturally, she wasn't going to be too considerate of Maximus's invitation. She had to seize this opportunity to paint a picture to Maximus of how good Naomi and Brendan were getting along.

Plus, she would let him know that the couple was soon expecting. If he was still getting any ideas, it was time for him to give them up!
