Chapter 5
For a moment, Naomi was stunned
Did dan know what he was dodig?
Looking at Naomi's surprised expression, Brendan's eyelashes fluttered and he soon came back to his senses.
He let go of her and questioned, "Don't you always say that you want to get pregnant? Now what? Are you waiting for me to serve you?"
Naomi collected her thoughts and raised her hands to unbutton the shirt of his hospital pajamas. She asked casually, "Cen you have an erection under these circumstances?" Brenda really wanted to Naomi's mouth shut
So he swatted her hands off and said, "It's a that difficult for you to talu my shirt off."
Then he changed the subject again. "We can talk about you drugging me when your parents come tomorrow.
Nanmi had fallen into the bedside chair when Brendan swatted her way. Her face became sullen. "That's not funny, Brendan."
He could mess with anyone he liked, but he couldn't mess with her parmits.
Her parents were her life and bottom line.
Brendan looked at her indiferently and asked, "Why weren't you scared when you drugged me?"
When he said that, he took a bottle of medicine free under the pillow and tossed it at Naomi. "Either you eat the whole bottle, or ask your parents to judge right from wrong." Naomi picked up the medicine bottle that Brendan tossed her and saw that it was a laxative. She felt a burst of anger.
But she had to suppress her anger and said with gritted teeth, "Tine, Brendan. You win"
She would rather get hospitalized for a few days than see her mother scolding her while crying a river of tears.
Then she poured the medicine out on her palm and was about to swallow them.
When Brendan saw that Naomi was really going to eat all of it, he grabbed a pillow again and threw it at her, neither too lightly nor too heavily.
The medicines in her palm were scattered on the floor. When Naml looked up at Brendan, he said apathetically, "I'm not as vindictive as you are. Naomi suddenly smiled. "You can just say it if you can't bear to see me eat it.
Brendan shat her a cold glare. Naomi quickly made a gesture of shutting up and said nothing more.
The ward fell into silence.
Not long after that, the hotel takeaway oatmeal which was ordered by Heather arrived.
Naomi held the bowl and spoon, sat by the bedside, and carefully fed him.
Every time Naomi fed Brendan a spoonful of oatmeal, she would make sure there was some fruit on it
Only then would she bring the spoon to his mouth.
Everything now seemed to have gone back to the old times, back to before they had that quarrel.
They had never been together like this for such a long time.
When everything was quiet in the dead of night, Brendan woke up and found the room was left with only the bedside night lamp on
The light was dim. Naomi had fallen asleep lying on the edge of the bed.
It had been two years!
It had been two years since he had last been able to look at her like this.
Brendan raised his right hand, but when he was about to touch her face, he halted and his hand hung suspended in the air.
He could remember every one of her words that she had said on that day clearly. He could also remember the fire and the ironclad evidence.
His mind kept having flashbacks of the past. Brendan's right hand eventually fell on Naomi's head. He asked quietly, "Do you hate me so much that you want to kill me?"
But after that matter and that fire, they could never go back to the past, nor could he let her have a child as she wished.
They would only torture and torment each other if they were together.
Brendan didn't sell anyone about Naomi drugging him until the day he was discharged from the hospital
On the other hand, Naomi took care of Brendan when he was in the hospital. After he was discharged, she also returned to her work at the law firm after
