Boomerang Love

Chapter 272

When Brendan woke up the next morning, Naomi was no longer in bed; she had already left. It wasn’t hard to imagine the expression on Brendan’s face.

Meanwhile, Naomi received a call from Brendan the moment she settled at her desk at the law firm. “Naomi Goodwin, have you become bold? Are you going back on your words?”

As Naomi typed away on the keyboard, she deftly balanced her phone on her shoulder.

“I’m not going back on my words. The firm is swamped with work today. Don’t worry, I’ll head to the hospital once I’m done.”

“Naomi, did you go behind my back and get the check–up done yourself? Are you trying to keep the baby all to yourself?” Brendan seemed to suspect that Naomi was pregnant and was plotting a secret escape.

Naomi couldn’t help but burst out laughing as she stood up from her seat and made her way to the fire escape outside.

“The Ludwigs are the richest and most powerful family in the city, and you’re the shining star among them. I yearn to bear your child every single day.

“Why would I keep news of my pregnancy from you? I hope for my child to have a share of your family’s fortunes.”

Before Brendan could reply, Naomi added, “I’m not a fool! The trial is starting, and I don’t want any distractions. I’ll head to the hospital once I’m done with my work.

“Plus, I didn’t feel nauseous when I woke up today, or else I wouldn’t have come for
