Pursuing My Ex Wife in Full Blooming Spring novel (Naomi)

The atmosphere was much more pleasant as the men drank without Olivia.

As the night got darker, Dylan got drunk due to drinking a tad too much. Connor arranged for a chauffeur to take him home.

Connor and Scott were still sober.

They stood outside Drunken Kitten. Their cars were parked by the side of the quiet street.

Scott said, "Call if you need anything."

Connor nodded before saying, "Scott, please care for Olivia a little bit more. She needs time."

Scott furrowed his brow. "Connor, you can indulge in her whims, but I won't. I used to not care in the past, but I have boundaries now."

Connor replied seriously, "I understand."

In the past, Scott did not have anyone he cared about. He would just disregard what Olivia was doing. It was different at that moment. He had someone he cared for, and he could no longer let Olivia do as she wished.

They both had people that they cared for, so they understood each other.

"Don't worry. I'm here. I'll keep an eye on her."

Scott looked at him intently. Then, he got in the car and drove off.

Connor watched as Scott drove off, and he lowered his head.

He used to be so meek and lowly. This time, that would not be the case.

Scott looked at Connor through the rearview mirror as he drove off. He could sense that there was something different about Connor.

He looked ahead once more. At that moment, his gaze darkened.

Back at the hotel....

Naomi had been working for a very long time. She kept dozing off and even yawned multiple times to the point she could not continue working. Still, she did not head to bed. She picked up her phone to look at the time. It was past midnight. It was late.

She yawned once more and looked out of the window. The city has quieted down. There was barely any traffic on the streets.

It was difficult for Naomi to stay up until that moment. Nonetheless, she looked away and placed her phone down. She planned to continue working.

She thought of waiting a little longer.

However, the moment she picked up some documents, she yawned so much that tears welled up in her eyes. Her sight was blurry.

She grabbed a tissue to wipe away her tears and rubbed her eyes, but she realized that she could not focus at all.

She was too tired.

She thought about it and felt that she should take a short nap. If Scott returned, she would be able to hear him coming, and she would wake up.

At that thought, she placed the pen and documents down. She packed up a little and lay on the table to rest.

She suddenly thought of something and sat up once more. She took her phone to order a quick delivery.

She wanted to buy a thermometer for Scott when she was at the pharmacy, but the pharmacy had run out of them. At that time, she was anxious to return to the hotel so that Scott could take a hot shower and drink some effervescent tablets. She thought she could also buy it through her phone and get it delivered.

She only remembered about this at this very minute.

Naomi scrolled through her phone, seeing which shop was still open. She quickly put in her order and entered the address. Then, she placed her phone down and lay on the table to rest. This time, she fell asleep quickly.

Scott parked right by the entrance of the hotel, got out of the car, and entered the hotel lobby.

He got into the elevator and reached the floor where Naomi was at.

The moment he opened the door to her room, he stopped in his tracks.
