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 becbold? 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 cfor work. I'm hiding in the fire escape to make this call. The signal here isn't very strong. I'm hanging up." Naomi held the phone away and repeated, "Hello? Hello?" As Naomi sounded so optimistic and patient when explaining to him, Brendan found himself at a loss for words and decided to end the call. He wanted to see how long she could keep up her pretense.

After Brendan hung up, Naomi kept her phone aside and went back to the office.

"Naomi has a boyfriend! She was talking to her boyfriend on the phone!" "Yeah!" "What boyfriend? She has been married for two years, but she isn't keen on discussing her personal life at work. That's why she always responds that way, no matter what others ask." "Naomi, the courthouse just called. They want you to make a trip there." "Okay, I'll head over now," Naomi replied before gathering her car keys and making her way to the courthouse.

The traffic on Friday was slightly congested. Naomi rested both hands on the wheel, her fingers tapping on it intermittently as she watched the Maserati ahead.

Suddenly, she stopped tapping her fingers.

She remembered seeing the svehicle two days ago. As she glanced at the woman seated in the passenger seat, she couldn't believe her eyes.

Her instincts told her that there was more to this than met the eye. It was impossible for someone to bear such striking resemblance, both in looks and demeanor.

The cars began to move in the traffic jam, and then they honked at Naomi's car. She stepped on the gas and continued forward.

When she passed by the white Maserati, Naomi pressed the dial pad on the steering wheel. She called Ronald and said, "Helpcheck something."

"No problem, just send it over." Ronald chuckled and said, "Naomi, I can be your assistant at Solaris Law Firm by now." "Sure! But there's no pay," Naomi replied.

"You're kidding, right? How can I work for free?" "So, are you willing to take up the unpaid task I mentioned earlier?" "Yes."

Naomi giggled before sending Ronald the Maserati's car plate m number Based on her intuition as a lawyer, she couldn't shake the feeling that something was off about the matter There was more to the fire three years ago then met the aye

There were many things that Naomi found odd, including Samuel's m insistence that she marry Brendan.
