That last sentence that Lucy said kept replaying in Naomi‘s mind. She could not calm down for a very long time.
Previously, she had felt that the accident was rather strange, but she believed that Scott would not do that to her mother.
However, the seed of suspicion has been planted! She must reinvestigate her mother‘s death!
“Naomi, Naomi! What are you thinking? We agreed to go shopping yet you‘re here daydreaming.” Susan’s voice pulled Naomi back to reality.
“Nothing, I‘m just thinking about something.”
“Is it about signing with Cezanne, becoming their exclusive model?” Susan excitedly grabbed Naomi’s arm.
“This is such a great opportunity! You can use this to return to the modeling world, and we can work together again!”
“It‘s not about this.” Naomi smiled helplessly. “Susan, about signing the deal, I still need more time to think this through.”
“Okay, then.” Susan shrugged and pinched Naomi‘s fair and soft cheeks.
“But, if you‘re planning to go into the entertainment world, you must sign with our company. Do you hear me?”
“Of course! By then, you have to make me famous!” Naomi giggled. She held Susan‘s arm and entered a restaurant
“Right, by the way, what happened this morning? Didn‘t you say that Mister Hough would send you?” Susan suddenly thought about the incident that morning and asked in concern.
“Sigh! I get angry just talking about it!” Naomi recounted the incident in the morning to Susan once again before saying, “No wonder he can‘t find a wife!” C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
“You‘re overthinking this. How could the Prince of Gin City not find a wife? Not only the socialites of Gin City, but even the socialites of Royal City all flocked towards him, but he rejected them all.”
Then, Susan suddenly suppressed her voice. She had an expression that said she wanted to gossip.
“There is a rumor within circles that he keeps himself that way because he is waiting for a person.”
“Waiting for a person? What do you mean?”
“I‘ve only heard it from someone else, don‘t take it seriously.” Susan hesitated for a while. She was afraid that Naomi might be jealous.
“Just tell me!” Naomi urged. At that moment, Naomi was focused on listening to the gossip.
“Okay, I heard that five years ago, Jack rescued an orphan girl. He even sent her abroad to study. There was a rumor in Royal City that said he had long fallen in love with her. He was waiting for her to return to get married…”
At that, Susan cautiously swept Naomi a glance and said, “But it‘s only a rumor. After all, no one has seen that orphan girl before. It might just be made up.”
“If only she existed. Then, I would be free of my troubles.” Naomi sighed and rested her cheeks on one hand.
“You don‘t know how much trouble I am in right now.”
“I think you‘re just being unappreciative!” Susan rolled her eyes.
At that moment, Naomi did not know that what Susan said could be so accurate…
Ring! Ring! Ring!
Naomi‘s phone suddenly rang. It was from Scott! Naomi instinctively hung up, but her phone kept ringing.
“Hello, what are you calling me for?” Finally, Naomi answered the call. Her tone was cold.
“There‘s a fancy event at the West City Hotel tomorrow. Go to the event representing the Greens. Remem
“Now that you‘re all grown up, you need to work for the Green family!”
“I understand,” Naomi replied with displeasure before hanging up. Susan was thinking of something.
“There is only an event by Cezanne at the West City Hotel tomorrow. Why did your father suddenly chang fancy dinners? Something must have happened!” “I‘m guessing that he‘s just apprehensive that I‘m now M deprecatingly.
