chapter 124.2
Mr. Roswald stretched his hand and caressed the back of her hand.
Naomi was stunned and frowned while he continued. “I'm sure it'll work out
anyway. I need a decent and wise wife like you, Ms.
Xavier.”
Naomi suddenly pulled her hand out and said, “I’m sorry, but I already have
someone I like.”
Mr. Roswald’s expression changed, and he pulled her hand away. “You have a
man you like? So? What's the big deal? Are you guys dating? Are you married? If
your parents know about your relationship, will they approve of it?”
Naomi was startled. She tried to pull her hand out of his grip but to no avail. Her
face turned grim as she warned, “Mr. Roswald, please let go of my hand.”
“Ms. Xavier, I really like you. I liked you from the first moment I sawyou.“ Mr.
Roswald pulled her hand and landed a kiss on it, causing goosebumps to erupt
over her skin.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNaomi felt disgusted and pulled her hand out of his grip. She rose to her feet
and said, “ Please mind your manners, Mr. Roswald!”
The rest of the guests in the restaurant turned their heads and looked at them.
Mr. Roswald leaned against the back of the chair and smiled sarcastically, “What’s the matter? Are you looking
down at me?
“Lucy Xavier, do you think you can get everything your way just because you're pretty? If not for your pretty face,
do you think you can get attention from other men because of your meager salary? I know what you want. You
want to marry a rich man, isn't it? Hah, what a dreamer.
“All of you people are the same. You want nothing but gold and money. You think you're pretty, so you can get
everything your way? You're not competent and can't earn enough money yourself, so you demand a massive bride
price, yet you don't want to help your husband to take care of his family, and you want him to take care of you
instead like some sort of high-priced doll. So, why do we even have to get married?”
The words that spilled out of his mouth were obnoxious, and the voices of the people around them were getting
louder and louder.
Naomi clenched her fists tightly. Although she knew he was not insulting her, she still felt humiliated because he was
talking about Lucy.
She picked up the cup of water on the table and splashed it on him.
Mr. Roswald was Infuriated by her action, so he shot up from his seat and shouted, “How dare you splash water on
me, you crazy woman!?”
He lifted up his arm in an attempt to give her a slap.
Naomi just stood there and looked as his hand came at her without batting an eye. Just when his hand was about to
land on her cheek, he was kicked back to the seat by someone.
A man’s hand came out of nowhere and pulled Naomi, who still couldn’t come around to her senses, into his arms
and brought her away.
“You—” Just when Mr. Roswald stood up and shouted, a bodyguard stood in front of him and pushed him back to his
seat.
“Do you have a death wish? Do you know who she’s? She’s the daughter of Mr. Topaz, the owner of Eastwood
Enterprise!”
“She’s the daughter of Mr. Topaz?” Mr. Roswald was stunned.
‘Isn’t she Lucy Xavier?’
In the corridor, Naomi could barely keep up with his speed, while she was
struggling, she said, “Mr. Boucher, please walk slower...”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFrancisco brought her to the emergency exit. Before she could say anything, he
clasped his hand on her chin and kissed her.
Naomi’s pupils constricted, her heart raced into a gallop, and she tightened her
hand on his chest slightly.
This kiss was different from the kiss the previous time. He pried through her
teeth, and she felt suffocated.
Naomi whimpered, and it took a few moments for him to leave her lips.
Looking at Naomi, whose face was red and breathing heavily, Francisco lifted his
hand to rub her head and turned his face sideways. “ Now, you can’t join any
blind dates in the future.”
Naomi was stunned, “why... Why?”
“You still want to have a date with other men after kissing me?” Francisco looked
at her. “ What am I to you then?”
It took Naomi a few seconds before she could regain her senses. Her eyelashes
trembled, and she mumbled, “What are you talking about? Aren’t you the one
who... So, what is our relationship now?
He lifted her chin and asked, “What do you think?”
