"Impossible! His diet is strictly controlled by a dietician!""What about the medication?""Medication?"Madam Hough immediately looked at Clarissa and Lilian."Are there nuts in the drugs that you gave?""I-I-I…I'm not sure, I was just being kind…" Clarissa was scared half to death. Her legs trembled."Yes, Clarissa was just being kind. This is our family heirloom's miracle drug!" Lilian shuddered, trying to take herself off the blame.For someone who claimed that she passed the entrance exam to the Royal Medical School, she did not know what ingredients were there in her family's medication?Madam Hough immediately saw through her. "This is a matter of life and death!" Naomi asked anxiously, "What is the name of the drug, you should at least know that right!""It's called…the Six Relief Pill!" Clarissa stammered. Naomi furrowed her brows tightly. "The drug itself has five types of allergens. How could you just give the patient the drug without understanding his condition
"Of course, I do. If I did not apply dry needling, the consequences would have been worse." Naomi's expression was serious. She straightened her back."You b*tch! You have caused big trouble, yet you're still trying to defend yourself! Mister Hough, Naomi is not worthy of you!" Clarissa immediately reprimanded Naomi under the guise of justice while trying to incite Jack."Doctor Sims, how serious is it because of her dry needling?"Madam Hough furrowed her brows tightly. She swept Naomi a glance of detest and condescension."Serious? Just like she said! It's because she did it that is why it's not serious! I was just pretending to be stern to test her." Doctor Sims sniggered. He looked at Naomi with benevolent eyes full of admiration."Calm, stable, and responsible at such a young age. You're a good kid. Right, by the way! Such great technique! Who is your teacher?"Great technique? Should he not reprimand Naomi? Lilian and Clarissa were baffled. What they did just now only emp
"Also, even if you're just putting on an act, if the girl is to marry into our family, you have to promise me one thing, that is…"…In the basement parking lot. After an hour, Jack finally arrived. Naomi noticed the bag of medication in his hands. She furrowed her brows and asked concernedly, "Are you sick?""It's for you." Jack pretended to nonchalantly throw the bag in Naomi's lap. He observed Naomi's reaction through the corner of his eyes via the rearview mirror.Naomi looked into the bag. It was medication for bruises. She instantly smiled widely.So, he did notice the bruises on her body!"Thank you, Mister Daddy!" Naomi thanked him sincerely. Jack pursed his lips into a little smile. A sense of haughty awkwardness flashed across his face."Don't think too much into it. This is to thank you for saving Grandpa.""I know." Naomi nodded. This man truly did not know how to read the room."But I have to clarify. I rescued Old Mister Hough because I wanted to, not because I
"Hey, Princess Naomi, how long more will you take?"Naomi sighed and said, "I'm sorry, Susan, I might be ten minutes late. I'm walking to the metro stop right now."Naomi had planned to go shopping with Susan that day. Initially, everything was right on track. She never expected to have a big fight with Jack."Forget about it. I'll get the driver to come and pick you up. Send me your location.""You're the best, Susan!" Naomi smiled happily! As expected, men have been unreliable since ancient times! Half an hour later, Susan's driver dropped her off at a luxurious office building.This was the place where Susan was shooting magazine ads. The Messers were one of the top film and media companies in Gin City.Susan had been a model since young. At that moment, she was one of the sweethearts of the modeling world.Naomi pushed the door and entered. Staff members were carrying luxury jewelry running amok. Susan was right in the center of the stage with a photographer shooting her.
"Amazing performance!""She tells a story with just a look! She's a natural!" The staff was stunned. They took their phones out to snap some photos.The models who mocked Naomi a moment ago immediately shut up, embarrassed.Especially when Naomi looked at them. They lowered their heads, wanting to hide.After that, Naomi was invited by the brand and continued shooting a few more looks, partnering with Susan.The photographers went nuts. They took photos non-stop for almost half an hour."My god! They are all exquisite works! I don't want to give up a single photo!" In the end, the photographer stood in front of the computer and exclaimed."Why have I not seen this model before? How could I not have an impression of such a great model?" The photographer was very curious."That's because she retired ten years ago," Susan said meaningfully. At that moment, Naomi had changed into her clothes and came out."Susan, am I robbing other people of their jobs?""Of course…""Of course,
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 worl
"So you're really going?""Of course, I have to go. This is a chance. Even if anything fishy happens, I'll be able to turn the situation around!"Naomi narrowed her eyes slightly, it was time Gin City knew of her! "Alright then, I'll go to the banquet tomorrow night as well. If anything happens, I'll be able to help you." Susan patted her shoulder with some concern."Susan, I love you!" Naomi buried her head into Susan's embrace in happiness."If you love me, then sign a contract with our film company!""Let me think about that first.""Go die!"The two of them happily had lunch together. After that, Naomi bid Susan farewell and returned to Tarragon Bay.She was still not done with Hough Corp.This time, Naomi had strengthened the hiding program. If Hough Corp's technicians wanted to catch her, well it was… impossible!For half a day, Naomi looked for clues in Hough Corp's system. She finally found the leaker, and sent over the list of names.After a while, Nine sent a message, [Lord
The girl fell face-first onto the floor and planted herself on the ground with her limbs outstretched, unmoving. Jack clicked his tongue with lowered eyes.Was she broken?The girl on the floor still did not move, and she started to breathe calmly.She's still asleep?Jack laughed silently to himself as he unconsciously bent down and reached his hand out, but remembered him carrying her out of kindness the first night and being scolded…The man's face sunk and turned around to leave after a moment."Achoo! Cold…"Naomi let out sneeze after sneeze, fast asleep on the floor. She was talking in her sleep."Achoo!"Jack frowned as he clenched his fists before relaxing them. After puzzling over it for a few seconds, he returned to the sofa.He bent down and picked the girl up from the ground, placing her on the sofa. He was just about to remove his hands when…Naomi suddenly wrapped around him, hugging his arm tightly with her hands and legs.The girl's fresh smell assaulted J
