Chapter 237
An empty room
Naomi turned around and walked towards the study
Putting her hand on the door handle, she mustered up the courage to push the door open and drew her
breath
“Mister Daddy, although we will be strangers in the future, I still want to invite you to the anniversary!
Everyone wants to see you…”
As she was talking, Naomi even closed her eyes nervously, but after she finished speaking, the
response to her was dead silence
Eh?
Naomi opened one eye to take a peek, but there was no one in the entire study
What happened here?
At this moment, Smith passed by behind her.
“Mrs. Green, the young master flew to Royal City this morning. He won’t be back until the day after
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttomorrow.”
“The day after tomorrow?”
Naomi’s heart sank.
It turns out that Mister Daddy had already left!
To her, Langdom was an important part of her life, but to Jack, it was just a small effort, a drop in the
ocean.
Who did she think she was to invite him to a small anniversary?
“Heh… I think too much…”
Naomi bit her lip, and the invitation card with Jack’s name written on it fell into the trash can.
The next night, in the largest five-star hotel in Gin City, the red carpet was spread all the way to the end
of the hotel plaza, surrounded by a wall of flowers. On the electronic screen at the center of the gate,
huge red letters were prominently displayed. “We warmly celebrate the 15th anniversary of the
founding of Langdon!” Countless reporters dragged their telephoto lenses and large cameras to record
this moment of joy.
The employees of the Green family, and even the high-profile guests coming in were all in similar-
looking suits. The ladies also wore conservative and long black dresses, even the colors were very
similar. It just made the anniversary seem much more solemn and majestic. When Naomi appeared at
the banquet door in an ocean-blue off-shoulder fishtail dress, she drew the attention of everyone in the
crowd.
Half the crowd was amazed, the other half looked at her with criticism and scrutiny.
Naomi’s eyes darkened and she scowled.
So this was all Lilian’s plan!
Nevertheless, she did not care too much and continued on to the red carpet. Many loving couples
holding hands passed her and the sight made her feel a little lonely. It seemed like she showed up
alone. “Naomi! Cheer up! There’s still a big battle to fight today!” Naomi took a deep breath and tried to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpush aside the negative emotions in her eye. She straightened her spine and walked forward. Sure
enough, as soon as she walked into the hall, Scott looked glum and appeared before her, chiding,
“Look at you! Such a solemn occasion! What are you wearing?” While speaking, Scott saw the Ocean
Star around Naomi’s neck. He suddenly looked even more furious, as if someone had stepped on his
tail.
“Hurry up and take off that shoddy necklace and change your clothes!”
“Why change it? I think this dress is good, and this necklace is even better!” Naomi bent her lips – the
more upset Scott was, the happier she was. “You!” Scott was trembling with anger when suddenly he
saw Clarissa surrounded by a crowd not far away. He looked at her with pride.
“Look at how perfect Clarissa is, can you take a page out of her book? You have disappointed me so
much!”
“It seems that I haven’t disappointed you enough, since you haven’t given up yet!” Naomi pursed her
lips coldly, staring at Scott with sharp eyes.
He was so frightened that he took a step back Trying to avoid an argument, he found an excuse to slip
away with a guilty conscience. “I get angry when I see you! I’m going to look for Clarissa!”
