Daddy’s Doting Addiction by Spicy Tuna

Chapter 57

Chapter 57
“Uh… So you’re home…”
Naomi snorted and laughed awkwardly.
She had acted rashly in the car the other day and made Mister Daddy angry. Since then, she had been trying to find the right time to apologize
However, she was too embarrassed to give him the apology and gift face-to-face. How could she live with that?
She originally planned on secretly placing the gift in the bedroom and writing an apology note. Who knew that she would have accidentally bumped into him as soon as she had returned! She really wanted to hit herself for the failure!
“Where else would I be?”
Jack narrowed his eyes at Naomi and snorted coldly.
In order to support her, he had allowed the president of Cezanne to extort an obscene amount of money from him!
What a heartless little one! She did not even give him her thanks!
“Why are you home so late?”
Although Jack was unhappy at heart, he just could not help but ask out of worry for Naomi.
Naomi could hear his worry and lowered her head in guilt. Mister Daddy did so much for her, but she was so stubborn and refused to give in because of her pride.
Forget it! Did her pride really matter that much?

“This is for you!”
Naomi blushed with embarrassment and quickly stuffed the suit into his arms.
“This is for me?”
Jack was taken by surprise. He accepted the suit with a puzzled look.
“Mmhmm…”
Naomi answered softly. She quickly lowered her head again and reluctantly focused on the floor.
“Thank you for buying the Ocean Star for me. Also, thanks for getting me out of the mess today! This is a thank you gift for you. By that way, um…”
Naomi’s face grew redder as she spoke. She kept her eyes fixed to the ground in an effort to summon her courage and say everything in one go.
“About what happened in the car that day… I’m sorry! I was so angry and acted rashly. I spoke without thinking. I know you’re worried about me. Don’t worry. I won’t say anything that will disappoint you again!”
She summoned her courage and said all she wanted to say. However, she did not have the courage to raise her head. That was why she did not see the flash of joy in his eyes.
Jack quickly reverted to his usual poker face. He crossed his arms and said coldly, “Kid, raise your head.”
“Ah?”
Naomi was startled and slowly lifted her chin. She looked right into his super handsome face. His dark eyes stayed focused the whole time.
Ba-dump!
Her heart thumped heavily. In the next second, she heard Jack’s indifferent voice.
The man said coldly, “Put your nonsensical thoughts away. I only did that to protect the Hough family’s pride. I’m not worried about you.”
His words hit her like a bucket of cold water and it stopped her heart from fluttering.
“Oh…”
Naomi answered with a disappointed look. She was overthinking things earlier.
Jack looked down and frowned at the girl’s reaction. Why did she look so disappointed? Had he spoken too harshly?
As he thought of that, Jack added with a stern face, “Whatever that has happened is over. Just don’t do it again.”
“Okay!”
Naomi was relieved to hear that and let out a huge sigh of relief. She looked at him with a cute smile and sparkly eyes.
