    Chapter 227


    Anna looked at her phone and smiled smugly. The enemy of her enemy was her friend.


    “Naomi, you’ll soon know who the fool is!”


    At the Hough Mansion, Naomi finally ced Jack by the bed with much difficulty.


    “Ah!”


    Suddenly, Jack fell onto the bed, dragging Naomi along. They fell on the bed as Naomi yelped in pain.


    She tried to get up, seeing stars. Jack subconsciously reached out and hugged her waist, not letting her


    move. “Stupid Daddy, let me go!”


    Naomi struggled ufortably. Jack did note around. On the contrary, he hugged her tighter.


    Feeling Jack’s chest getting warmer, Naomi was stunned. “Damn it! Have you taken something bad?”


    Naomi quickly grabbed Jack’s hand with difficulty, taking his pulse. Thankfully, he did not. At that


    moment, the moonlight fell on his handsome face. He looked gorgeous. Naomi looked up and saw Jack’s


    exquisite thin lips right in front of her…


    What a view!


    The temperature started rising, and Naomi’s face got hotter. She subconsciously licked her lips and


    inched in closer.


    “Queenie…”


    Rumble!


    Jack’s words were like a rumble of thunder striking down on her. Naomi was instantly sobered! Her


    expressions darkened. She did not know how she found the strength, but she got up from Jack’s


    clutches and ran out of the bedroom. The next day, Jack slowly opened his eyes when he smelled


    something herbal. He seemed to have had a happy dream. In his dreams, Naomi, that kid, came over


    and took him home. It was too bad that she did not appear. Jack’s expressions darkened. He sat up


    tiredly and noticed a hot bowl of herbal concoction by the side of his bed.


    “Sir, are you up?” Smith knocked on the door and entered with breakfast in his hands. “Miss Naomi has


    instructed you to drink this concoction once you’re up. It helps with the hangover.”

    “Naomi told you that?” Jack’s dark eyes brightened. “Who sent me homest night?”


    “Miss Naomi. By the way, your injuries aren’t healed yet. It’s best if you don’t drink-” Before Smith could


    finish his sentence, Jack beamed. “Where is she?” “She left for the factory early in the morning.”


    The next second, Jack gulped down the concoction and left. It turned out that he was not dreaming.


    Naomi indeed came the night before! Since she had already given him an answer, he should also give


    her his answer! At the Langdon factory, it was the weekend that day. There were few people in the


    factory, but the sun still shone brightly. Jack’s mood reflected the good weather. From far away, he could


    see Naomi through the office window. He quickened his steps. Jack merely ced his hand on the


    handle when he heard peals ofughtering from inside Jack paused when he heard Naomi’s voice


    from inside. “Robin, thank you foring over to help me today.” Robin said gently, “I’m guessing that


    you must’ve been troubled by the finances after Colin left. Luckily, I have a degree in finance, so I can


    help you out.”


    “I really don’t know how to thank you. Tell me what you want to eat! My treat!” They chatted happily


    inside. Outside, Jack’s expression darkened. It was the weekend. His cheapskate nephew was not


    staying at home recovering. What was he doing at the factory?! “I’m not a glutton. If you really want to


    thank me, just answer a few of my questions.”


    “What questions?”


    “Naomi…”


    Robin’s tone suddenly turned serious. Outside the door, Jack’s expression turned serious too. What was


    Robin trying to do?
