Naomi paused. Although she had suspected this, hearing it directly from the person involved still felt somewhat unbelievable.
However, just by the tone of his voice, it was clear this was a sensitive issue for him. While Naomi wanted to learn more about the hidden family, she wasn’t in a rush.
"Well, if you don’t want to say, it’s fine. Finnick, you and Tristo don’t need to investigate the Dragomir family for now. Just keep an eye on it, but focus on what you’re doing. Handle the things at hand first."
There was a long silence on the other end, then a faint "Okay."
Naomi was about to hang up when Finnick suddenly spoke again, "The woman you asked me to look into seems to have some problems."
"You mean Nancy?" Naomi had asked Finnick and his team to keep an eye on Nancy before she left.
"Yes, Jace Blair’s wife, Darya, has quite a background. Although they appear to be a normal married couple to outsiders, h

Alec furrowed his brow but ultimately said nothing.Grandma Knox glanced at him and naturally understood her son’s thoughts. He simply didn’t want Alistair to enter the entertainment industry. It wasn’t that he didn’t acknowledge the entertainment world, but he believed it would be better for a boy like Alistair to help manage the company alongside Atlas.Even an old woman like herself thought her son was narrow-minded.In the end, the matter was settled. Naomi finished her lunch, and after taking her supplements under the supervision of Grandma Knox, she was allowed upstairs. At that moment, someone was working in the study.Both the Knox family and the Westfields needed him right now.Naomi finally had the chance to check her phone. However, as soon as she opened it, she found a message from an unfamiliar number.[Miss Swift, hello. I am Darian Hollis. I would really like to be friends with you, and I wonder if
After a night of passion, Naomi woke up to find it was already past 10 AM. The curtains in the room were still drawn, and the dim atmosphere made her feel even more drowsy.She was about to turn over and go back to sleep, but as soon as she moved, a dull ache spread across her body."Oww!"Naomi couldn't help but wince in pain. That damn man had been too much last night. When it came to things like that, men always found a thousand and one ways to make her say those embarrassing words.Now, recalling how the man had leaned on her, the beads of sweat dripping onto her face and neck, she felt even more shy.Especially when, with that man's wicked mind, she had been forced to say those words—"I forgive you."Hmph, truly unbearable.When Atlas entered, the scene he saw was this: his wife, with her hands clasped together, her head resting on them.The black silk duvet, her fair skin, and her beautiful hair—Atlas's gaze d
Atlas hugged Naomi as they entered. As soon as they stepped through the door, it seemed like the grandmother and grandson had a target in mind. One hurriedly pulled Naomi to sit down, and the other rushed up to Atlas and stopped, shyly calling out "Brother."Mona couldn’t bear to watch. She might as well head to the kitchen.Oh, but the kitchen didn’t need her either; the old man was there preparing things."Atlas, Naomi, you can sit for a while. The food will be ready soon."Naomi and Atlas nodded at her.Mona looked at her son who was surrounding Atlas, and the old lady who was surrounding Naomi. With nothing to do, she turned and went upstairs. She might as well focus on taking care of herself and put on a face mask since she still had time.Sigh, her son wasn’t really her son. Maybe she should just be the most beautiful grandmother from now on.Downstairs.The old lady enthusiastically pulled Naomi in: "Na
In the distance, Danna watched the scene unfold, her heart filled with resentment.Naomi already had so many good things, so why did she still need to keep Kael in her thoughts? Fortunately, fortunately, she still had an escape route.There had been so much happening at the party today that Naomi had forgotten she originally planned to meet Paulina to find that mysterious agent.Paulina looked at her lazily. “I knew you’d forget.”Naomi felt embarrassed. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”Paulina smiled slyly. “How could I let my future boss apologize to me? Here, I did not disappoint you!”Naomi looked at the business card Paulina handed her and smiled.Thinking back, she really had ‘fallen for’ Paulina at first sight. She had to admit, her judgment was spot on.After the party, Naomi had planned to ride in the same car as Paulina, but she was forcefully directed into a ca
When Naomi and Atlas returned to the banquet hall, Melvin, with his sharp eyes, immediately noticed that Naomi’s face was flushed. He squinted and asked, “What have you two been doing behind my back?”Naomi’s ears began to turn red as well. She couldn’t help but feel embarrassed thinking about the man’s actions just now. Not only had he openly talked about having children with her, but he had also done this and that to her. She was completely unprepared.Bertrand, who was beside them with Miley, had a neutral expression, but his eyes were clearly teasing them.Atlas raised an eyebrow. “Of course, we’ve been doing things you single people wouldn’t understand.”“...”Who will deal with this monster?Melvin pressed his hand to his chest. “I never knew you were such a person!”His overly dramatic reaction made everyone else stifle their laughter.
