When that faint smile froze on her face, Naomi said, “Brendan, given our relationship, you have no right to
look at my phone.”
Brendan’s gaze darkened bit by bit, becoming dangerous. It was like a tiger that had accumulated enough

After Naomi finished speaking, Brendan grabbed her tightly as she brushed past him.
Naomi’s arm was gripped so tightly that it hurt. When she looked at Brendan, his usually mild–mannered face had lost all traces of warmth, replaced by coldness.
Naomi remained nonchalant and asked, “Are you jealous?”
Brendan pulled her arm, and Naomi reacted quickly. She turned around and tossed her phone into the
toilet.
“Naomi!” Brendan’s voice was sharp.
However, Naomi shrugged it off. “Now you can’t see it, and neither can I.”
Brendan let go of her hand. He picked up his own phone and dialed Jason’s number. “Jason, please
check…”
Before Brendan could finish speaking, Naomi grabbed his phone and hung up the call, saying, “You won’t be able to handle it if Jason actually finds out something. Fine, I’ll admit it. I have someone else ‘outside.” Her dismissive attitude didn’t sit well with Brendan. He suppressed his anger and asked, “Maximus?”
Naomi replied, “That’s right! You declined my offer to assist with the project, so why wouldn’t I consider other options? I can still find ways to gain something from it.”
Brendan swallowed hard, his voice deep as he asked, “How far have you gone with him?”
Naomi teased, “Do you really want to know? Why don’t you find out for yourself?”
Brendan remained motionless, merely gritting his teeth and warning her, “Naomi, you’ve crossed the line.”
Naomi chuckled. “Didn’t we agree on this? You do your thing, and I do mine. We don’t interfere with each other’s affairs.”
Suppressing his anger, Brendan raised his right hand and pried Naomi’s fingers from his neck one by one. He held her chin and warned, “Naomi, you’d better be joking. Otherwise, you can forget about the South Glistenville project and any future business for the Goodwin Corporation.”
After speaking, Brendan walked to the closet and changed into a suit. He eventually left the house. Despite everything, he had managed to restrain his anger and didn’t mention divorce to Naomi.
The door slammed loudly shut. Naomi smiled briefly, turned around, and retrieved her phone from the toilet.

There was nothing going on between her and Ronald. There was no reason for her not to share the messages with Brendan. She just simply couldn’t stand his aloof and hypocritical attitude.
Moreover, Naomi had lost much of her interest in him after his display of arrogance the previous night, She just wanted to deliberately disgust him with her actions.
After drying her phone, Naomi took out the SIM card and asked Jennifer to bring her a new phone.
As soon as the SIM card was in place, she noticed that Ronald had sent dozens of messages asking her to go over and questioning why she wasn’t replying to the messages. He had also left several voice
messages.
Naomi wore an expression of disdain. Just then, she received a call from Ronald.
Naomi was speechless.
