Chapter 15

작가: Spicy Tuna
"Mister Smith, you got it wrong. It is because he used to eat too many carrots, that the food he hates most now are carrots."

Naomi placed her utensils down and looked at Smith seriously.

"Ah, yes, yes, yes! I've got it wrong. Must be my old age." Smith slapped his forehead, pretended to be sorry, and immediately took away the plate with carrots.

Sure enough, Old Mister Hough was even more delighted. He instructed Smith, "Serve Naomi some soup."

Then, he smiled and turned to look at Naomi benevolently and excitedly, "Our soup is amazing. You must try it."

"Uh, thank you," Naomi gave a fake smile and accepted the soup. She was extremely against it in her heart. Why did the soup have to have cilantro, the one food she hated the most!

Just when Naomi was hesitating on whether she should taste it or not, a huge hand came over and took away the bowl of soup.

"You don't like cilantro. Don't drink it." Jack's tone was still aloof but seemed natural, as if the two of them had been together for a long time. They were like a couple who cared for each other.

"Hahaha. My good grandson! This time you're not lying to me!"

Old Mister Hough slammed the table happily when he saw the intimate interaction between the two of them.

Naomi looked at Jack gratefully. Jack aloofly looked away, dousing her affectionate feelings.

Naomi was a little stunned. She smiled self-deprecatingly. She over-thought it.

"I'm so happy today!" Old Mister Hough picked up his glass of wine and a grilled pork knuckle, stuffing them in his mouth.

Naomi could not help but gently remind, "Old Mister Hough, it seems like you have a serious inflammation of sorts. Alcohol and heavy foods are quite bad for you. Why don't you have something else?"

Upon Naomi's words, Jack suddenly turned to look at her with a darkened gaze. Only people close to Old Mister Hough knew about his condition. How did she know about it?

Could it be that Sean was right? He should not have brought her there?

Naomi felt as if the atmosphere was not right. She turned and asked Jack in a suppressed tone, "Did I say something wrong?"

Before Jack could answer, Old Mister Hough said, "Naomi is right. No wonder my condition hasn't gotten any better all these years. Take them away. I'll have something else!"

Jack looked at his grandfather. He could not bear to make him unhappy, so he chuckled a little, but his laughter did not reach his eyes.

"You said nothing wrong."

Naomi looked at him. She thought something was off.

At that moment, Old Mister Hough started chatting with her, so Naomi no longer gave it any thought.

However, she did not expect that what Old Mister Hough said next would baffle her!

"You two are really fated. I arranged for this brat to have a blind date with the Greens. Who would have thought that you two already registered your marriage? You have saved me a huge effort."

"Blind date?" Naomi's eyes widened in disbelief. How did she not hear about her blind date with Jack? She thought back to the phone call she heard the day before and she suddenly understood.

Initially, it was supposed to be her blind date with Jack, yet Scott set up Clarissa to take her place instead so that Clarissa could marry into a rich family!

To prevent the Houghs from coming after them in the future, that was why they desperately wanted to marry Naomi off to the pervert!

Heh! They could throw her under the bus and yet Clarissa gets to marry into a rich family!

This was the doing of her biological father!

Naomi smiled miserably and chuckled bitterly.

Coincidentally, Jack saw her smiling and misread it into something else.

Had he truly been duped by this kid? Was it all a set up from the marriage the day before to the dinner that night?

They were both thinking about different things. The atmosphere turned cold. Only Old Mister Hough did not notice it.

He still asked Jack with a smile, "You can't just have a secret marriage. When are you planning to have the wedding?"

"We…"

Slam!

Naomi said hesitantly when the door was pushed open. A girl covered in jewelry rushed in.

"Andrea? Why are you here?"

When Naomi saw Andrea, she was stunned. Andrea used to be a bully in school, Naomi could not take it, so she fought back. They have had a grudge against each other ever since.

"Hmph! Of course, I'm here to expose you! You liar!" Andrea sneered and glared at Naomi fiercely.

"Andrea, don't be so rude! She is your future cousin!" Old Mister Hough reprimanded his granddaughter, but Andrea had no intention of stopping.

"Grandpa! Jack! Don't be duped by her! Naomi is the worst problematic girl in our school! She not only smokes, drinks, and fights! She fools around too! This morning she was still being intimate with another guy! This b*tch is here to cheat us of our money!"

"Andrea, what nonsense are you talking about?" Naomi jumped up and angrily asked.

"Heh, stop pretending. I have proof." Andrea smugly glanced at Naomi and took a stack of photos out. The photos were all of Naomi with different men…

  • Daddy's Doting Addiction   Chapter 473

    Chapter 473"Of course not!" Naomi shook her head and answered firmly.  "I'm a doctor. Trust me. I will cure you!"  Naomi then reached out to smooth Jack's furrowed brows.  "Don't think about those horrible things. It's all in the past."  "All right," Jack said as he grabbed Naomi's soft hand and rubbed it in his palm.  The anger and fear in Jack's heart faded at a glimpse of Naomi.  Jack's face eased up. He went on peacefully, "Luckily, then I met a girl. She saved me."  "I see." Naomi responded, jealousy in her heart.  ‘Obviously, that girl was Queenie.  ‘Speaking of Queenie, Mister Daddy becomes so tender.  ‘All right! Queenie will always be your angel!'  Naomi got angry when she remembered what Queenie and Jack's mother had done to her at the wedding.  ‘But Mister Daddy trusts Queenie so much, and Mrs. Hough is his mother. Whose side will Stinky Daddy be on if conflict breaks out among us in the future?'  Naomi hung her head down. She had little confidenc

  • Daddy's Doting Addiction   Chapter 472

    Chapter 472  Sean was speechless. He scratched his hair.  Professor Gregory sighed. He stood up and turned to go.  "Maybe there is going to be another storm."It was cold at night.Naomi sat on the steps by the fountain at the Base. She clutched her legs in her arms. Jack draped his jacket over her shoulders.  "It's cold."  "You're the patient. You need it more than I do."  Naomi wanted to take the jacket off, but Jack stopped her and took her into his arms.  "I'm all healed up."  "Really?" Naomi looked at him suspiciously.  Then Jack grabbed Naomi's hand and slipped it under his shirt.  Touching his hot skin, immediately, Naomi blushed.  "What are you doing? We're in a public place..."  "I'm just letting you check me out." Jack replied calmly, innocence in his eyes.  "All right," Naomi felt extremely embarrassed. She felt ashamed of her thoughts.  Jack raised his eyebrows. He sensed her embarrassment. He deliberately leaned in and teased, "You want to d

  • Daddy's Doting Addiction   Chapter 471

    Chapter 471Jack's eyes showed a glint of embarrassment, which meant he admitted it.  "Sean said you couldn’t sleep well. I remember you always had to hold something while you slept..."  He wanted to say that Naomi had to hold him to sleep well, but he swallowed it.  Naomi's eyes twinkled. Immediately, she felt something pinch her heart hard.  "Since you don't like it, give it back to me.” Jack was about to take the doll away.  "No! You gave it to me. How can you take it back?"  Naomi hid the doll behind her back.  Just as Naomi was grabbing the doll, suddenly Jack opened his arms and took both her and the doll tightly in his arms.  Jack's unique and fresh scent immediately enveloped her.  Falling into the familiar embrace, Naomi instantly got emotional. Her eyes welled up with tears. She quietly leaned into his arms, enjoying the moment.  Jack held her tighter as if he was afraid she would run away again.  He wanted to take it slow, but he couldn't hold it anymo

  • Daddy's Doting Addiction   Chapter 470

    Chapter 470  A worried look flashed across Jack's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He averted his eyes.  It was silent.  Naomi's lips quivered. So many words were on the tip of her tongue, but she couldn't get them out.  "Uh... Are all your wounds healed?"  "Yes." Jack replied indifferently. He sounded aloof.  Naomi looked up at him, but he didn't look at her.  Naomi didn’t know how much effort Jack had used to refrain from looking at her. But still, he sneaked a peek at her out of the corner of his eye.  Naomi nervously gripped the doll with her fingers. She was looking for anything to say to Jack.  ‘The doll... Right! '  Naomi immediately held up the doll and asked, "Did you give me this doll and the fruit that appeared on my windowsill these days?"  "No." Jack bluntly answered.  Jack remembered that Sean had told him earlier that anything Jack sent to Naomi, she would throw it away.  ‘But Naomi can't sleep well if she doesn't have a doll to cudd

  • Daddy's Doting Addiction   Chapter 469

    Chapter 469"Shooting the ninth ring will pass. My master shot the bull’s eye. Why didn't he pass?" Paulo questioned angrily.  Robin also sneered at Jack, "Mr. Hough, you're not finding fault with Naom, are you?"  Snap!  Jack closed the folder abruptly, and everyone was shocked. The range fell silent!  Jack looked Naomi steadily in the eye and replied calmly, "Your elbow is in the wrong place. You're shooting impulsively. And your breathing is not steady."  Naomi blushed and lowered her eyes in embarrassment. Then Jack's low voice rang out above her head.  "If you want to join the National Security Bureau, you have to do your best!"  Immediately, Naomi's eyes flickered. She looked up at Jack.  ‘Mister Daddy knows what I’m up to?'  Their eyes met, and the look in Jack's eyes reassured her.  "You're not good enough."  "You're not fair." Saif spoke up angrily for Naomi. "In my opinion, it's you..."  "Saif!" Naomi stopped Saif. The anger was gone from her face, a

  • Daddy's Doting Addiction   Chapter 468

    Chapter 468  "I'm sorry."  "It's okay. Your nerves are too tight these days. You should relax a bit."  Robin showed a worried look in his eyes. He handed Naomi a bottle.  "I made the tea. It helps you calm down. Try it."  "Have you had lunch, Master? Have a piece of cake!" Paulo handed Naomi a piece of cake, and Saif took out a handkerchief to wipe Naomi's sweat.  For a moment, Naomi felt warmed by the concern of so many people.  "Thank you all."  "It’s OK. We are a team!"  "Yeah, we're a team!"  The four then burst out laughing at the same time.  Not far away, Jack cast his eyes on Naomi. Seeing Naomi so close to the other three, he felt jealous. He got angry and clenched the pencil in his hand so hard that it broke into two!  "The pencil broke?" Lily asked in surprise. Jack's face didn't change color. He picked up another pencil."The quality of the pencil is too bad."The test began. Everyone on each team had to hit the ninth ring, or the team‘’s score wo
