Boomerang Love (Naomi and Brendan) Online Novel
Chapter 123

Chapter 123 

Hearing Brendan’s emotionless voice, Ronald quickly reported, “Brendan, Maximus just called Naomi. 

On the other end of the line, Brendan’s voice turned stern. “You went to see my wife this early in the morning?” 

Ronald felt speechless before hurriedly explaining, “I went to Naomi to report what happened that night and see how she felt. I wanted to make things right with you.” 

This time, Brendan got straight to the point. “Ronald, if you keep pushing Naomi to divorce me, don’t expect to stay in Ashburgh.” 

Ronald was surprised and raised his voice. “Brendan, you don’t want a divorce, do you? You should have told me sooner! I could have put in some good words for you.” 

“Do I look like I need your help?” Brendan snapped and added impatiently, “Why did Maximus call Naomi?” Returning to the topic, Ronald got excited and quickly exclaimed, “I didn’t hear everything, but he did ask her out for dinner tonight. But Naomi didn’t have the time and refused.” 

Ronald continued with frustration, “Brendan, I keep telling you that Maximus guy isn’t a good person. He had his eye on Naomi years ago. 

“Don’t let your guard down. Don’t let him get close to Naomi. From what I see…” 

Before Ronald could finish, Brendan hung up. Brendan threw his phone onto the desk, his face turning 

sour. 

He had told her he was bothered by Maximus. Yet, they were in contact so early in the morning. 

The call from Ronald had ruined Brendan’s day. When 5:30 pm came, he headed straight to the law 

firm. 

However, after waiting at the law firm for nearly an hour, Brendan still hadn’t seen Naomi even after everyone else left. With a dark expression, he called Naomi. 

“Are you working overtime?” 

On the other end of the phone, Naomi/answered casually, “No! I’m on a business trip, investigating Charles 

case.” 

Charles, as Naomi mentioned, was the boy who killed his father and two uncles 13 years ago. 

Upon hearing her explanation, Brendan’s anger flared. “Didn’t you think to inform me before going on a business trip?” 

Naomi retorted, “Isn’t this me informing you?” 

Besides, they never had the habit of informing each other of their schedule. He didn’t answer her calls before, nor did he respond to her messages. Plus, they hadn’t been in contact for days.

Brendan growled. “I’m calling you because I’m at the law firm.” 

Naomi giggled at this. “Were you there to pick me up? You’re so caring, Brendan. Did you actually fall for 

me?” 

Naomi’s tease annoyed Brendan, who promptly hung up the phone. She was always this carefree. Who was he to stop her? 

He tossed his phone aside but couldn’t shake off the unease from Ronald’s call that morning. 

Maximus had only contacted her today, and now she was going on a business trip. Brendan couldn’t shake the feeling that things weren’t as simple as they seemed. 

So, he picked up the phone again and called Jason. “Jason, check Naomi’s schedule.” 

“Right away, Mr. Ludwig.” Jason got to work after hanging up the phone. 

Inside the hotel, Naomi chuckled at the disconnected call before yawning and heading for the desk. 

She was visiting Charles‘ neighbors tomorrow and learning more about what happened years ago. She needed to prepare for the visit. 

Flipping open her notebook, Naomi picked up her pen. Then, she suddenly remembered Brendan’s troubled expression that night and his fear of arriving too late.
