Boomerang Love

Chapter 196

Not too long after, a driver came over with a new car for Maximus.

Ryan couldn’t stop himself from complaining. “This devil incarnate from the Ludwig family is so haughty. How dare he ram your car, Mr. Martin.”

Maximus smiled slightly. “That’s the kind of person Brendan is. Don’t let him get to

you.

Ryan replied, “You’re too nice, Mr. Martin.”

Then, he lowered his voice and asked, “But, Mr. Martin, I heard that Ms. Sophia’s accident could be related to Ms. Goodwin. Are you sure that it doesn’t bother you at all?”

Upon hearing the mention of Sophia and Naomi, Maximus‘ face fell. “That incident had nothing to do with Naomi. Though, where did you hear that from?”

Ryan answered, “I forgot where I heard it from, I might’ve misheard it.”

Ryan didn’t share with Maximus that he had actually heard that when he was at the Martin residence.

The expression on Maximus face remained glum. He didn’t utter another word. His mood had been ruffled. He couldn’t be sure if it was because of Naomi or Sophia.

Later, Naomi heard about Brendan rear–ending Maximus‘ car from Ronald.

Even so, she decided not to question Brendan’s reason for doing so. Otherwise, she was certain that her upcoming days would become perturbed again.

As for Brendan, he remembered what he had asked Naomi the other night. He told her that he could have Chloe transferred if she wasn’t happy about him having her by his side.

Although Naomi claimed that Chloe wasn’t significant enough to make her unhappy, Brendan still kept his distance.
