When she reminisced on their past and the incident that happened between them, Naomi pushed m against his chest with both hands and looked up at him as she asked, "Is this a joke to you?" Brendan tightened his arms around her again. "I'm genuinely exhausted. My hair has turned white recently.
His hair had turned white? Naomi smirked. She wanted to see how long he would keep the act up and what he was playing at.
