“I still can’t get through! Miss Naomi’s phone is turned off!”
Janell was frantic with worries!
A cold glimmer flashed across Jack’s dark eyes.
“Sean…”
“Yes!” Sean responded immediately. ‘Mr. Hough is finally worried!’
However, just after Sean’s answer, a weary, sharply panting female voice rang out from behind him.
“I’m sorry! I’m coming late!”
The crowd turned to look at the woman.
Naomi was standing with one hand on her waist and the other propping against the wall. She was barely able to stand. She was out of breath.
“Miss Naomi!”
Zach, Janell, and the others immediately rushed past Jack and up to Naomi’s side. They were all worried about Naomi.
“Miss Naomi, where have you been?” Sean couldn’t help but ask.
“Miss Naomi, are you okay?”
“I’m fine. I’m just…”
Naomi gulped for air and tried to explain. When she looked up, she met Jack’s dark gaze.
People gathered around her and asked her what was going on, but Jack cast an indifferent glance at her. Then he walked away with an expressionless face, as if she were a stranger to him.
Naomi’s heart sank. She ducked her head in frustration.
“Miss Naomi, the signing ceremony is about to start. What you…”
Naomi now didn’t want to say too much. She interrupted Zach, “Go get me some food and my dress with Janell. I need to get ready soon.”
“Okay!”
The crowd dispersed. Only the haggard Naomi was left in the corridor, and Anna, who stayed behind on purpose. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“Miss Naomi, where have you been last night? You looked like a thief. Why are you in such a mess?” Anna deliberately raised her voice, obvious mockery in her tone.
“Hehe…” Naomi gave a contemptuous laugh. She straightened her back and stared at Anna.
“Anna, as you’re a thief yourself, then you think others are all as shameless as you?”
“You!”
Anna immediately thought of the night she threw herself at Jack. She knew Naomi was referring to it. She blushed purple with anger.
“What?”
Naomi glared hard at Anna.
“I let you off, and you got more reckless, didn’t you? I was buzzing around last night. Did you
have anything to do with it?”
Naomi’s guts told her that Anna’s sudden high profile indicated she must be planning something!
Yesterday, when Naomi had just arrived at Fantasy Plaza, she received notice that Shannon had gone to another place.
After that, Shannon changed several places again, so that Naomi stayed up all night. She spent the night chasing after Shannon.
When it was light, Naomi calmed down and realized that something was strange.
Now, seeing that Anna seemed to understand everything, Naomi immediately connected last night’s incident with her.
“What does it have to do with me?!”
Anna’s voice pitched in nervousness, but she quickly calmed down when she thought that her plan was about to work.
“Miss Naomi, get yourself ready for the signing ceremony. I hope nothing will go wrong!”
After that, Anna had a cold laugh and turned to leave.
‘Something is wrong! What is Anna up to?’
Watching Anna’s back, Naomi’s face turned serious.
“Miss Naomi, everything is ready!”
At that moment, Janell hurried over carrying Naomi’s dress and food, which interrupted Naomi’s thoughts.
“OK.”
Naomi couldn’t think of anything else right now. The most important thing was to get the agreement sighed successfully.
Ten minutes later, Naomi was standing on the stage in a couture dress, side by side with Jack. The guests and reporters were all watching them.
“Can you two come a little closer?” a reporter politely reminded the two.
Naomi smiled at the reporter and cast a timid glance at Jack.
Jack’s handsome face was cold and expressionless. His tall figure gave out an intimidating aura.
Naomi compressed her lips nervously, gathered her courage, and quietly moved closer to Jack.
The next second…
