Waking To The Mogul’s Embrace

Chapter 228

Oscar led Zoey to his bedroom. The monent the door was closed, Zoey instantly breathed a sigh of relief. She sent Naomi a message on her phone, reporting everything that happened in the Rogers family,

The Rogers family was kind and enthusiastle to her ich made her uneasy, Zoey: [Naomi, I’d better tell his grandma that I am tyng to them with Oscar!]

Naomi, I’m an orphan with a younger brother. If the truth is found out later, I am afraid that I will be in trouble. I don’t want to put my younger brother in trouble]

[Most importantly, I feel so uneasy. Oscar Basn’t told me what Cheryl’s pregnancy and miscarriage have to do with you. How about I tell them the truth after he explains everything to mel

Zoey held her phone and kept typing. Somehow, she sent a lot of messages in a row to Naomi,

Naomi didn’t reply but went to find Shawn with her phone.

She didn’t know much about Oscar or the Rogers family,

In her previous life, she was locked in the basement by Freddy and Rosalind for a long time so she didn’t know much about the world,

She knew some celebrities that often hit the headlines. But Oscar didn’t appear in any news that she had watched in her previous life. So she did not know anything about the Rogers family.

But she had met Oscar several times. She thought he was gentle to girls and he couldn’t have chosen Zoey for no reason. She thought Shawn would probably find out the reasons more easily and thoroughly,

Naomi arrived at the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel. At this hour, there were few people inside it. Shawn was sitting by the window with his shirt sleeves rolled up, revealing his particularly beautiful hands and wrists. His slender glowing fingers that were holding a coffee cup slowly stroked along the edge of the cup.

The early morning sunlight shone on his face through the glass window, like a soft filter above his face. His deep black eyebrows and high nose bridge made him look elegant and unattainable.

Just by sitting there, Shawn easily attracted everyone’s attention,

Naomi held her breath and walked forward cautiously. To her, Shawn seemed like

a distant, untouchable god, while she was just an ordinary mortal,

She had completely forgotten Shawn’s scarred face when she first met him. Naomi stood at the door and didn’t dare to step forward.

This restaurant was much more high–end because of Shawn.

Shawn took a sip of the coffee and turned to the door. Naomi stood there in a daze. Her eyes were focused on him and we

all of amazement.

Shawn smiled and waved at her. “Come over here.”

Naomi suddenly came to her senses. She realized that she had stared at Shawn for a long time. She patted her face, trying to lower the temperature of her face. Naomi quickly walked to Shawn and sat down. She smiled, “Shawn, what kind of girl does Oscar usually like?”

Shawn smiled and said casually, “He likes brainless girls.”

Naomi was shocked.

Shawn asked, “Why do you suddenly care about him?” He pushed the breakfast to her and said, “Let’s eat now!”

The food was still steaming. Obviously, Shawn had just fetched it before she came. Shawn stood up to get her a glass of hot milk. He put it in front of her. After pausing for a while, he said, “If you don’t like it, don’t force yourself.”

Naomi shook her head and sipped the hot milk.

Shawn said, “Oscar has never had a girlfriend. He never wants marriage, saying that he wouldn’t date or get married if he didn’t meet a woman with whom he could fall in love at first sight.

Shawn took a sip of the black coffee and said, “Before you came here, Oscar told me that he had fallen in love with Zoey at first sight and planned to win over her. He asked me to tell you to attend their wedding as Zoey’s sister then.

“I asked Chandler to send everything about Zoey to Oscar.”

Naomi opened her mouth wide, thinking things were magical. ‘Oscar fell in love with Zoey at first sight?!‘ she thought.

She took out her phone and looked through the messages sent by Zoey again. The more she read them, the more she felt that it was true.

Shawn said, “Zoey is an orphan. She only has one younger brother. The Rogers family doesn’t care about this. But Oscar wants you to support Zoey.”

Naomi was speechless. She thought, ‘Well, so, I am just a tool for them.

Shawn said, “Naomi, you’re like Zoey’s sister. With you supporting her, she will be more confident and feel more secure.”

Shawn seldom intervened in others‘ affairs. But Naomi attached great importance

to Zoey. Besides, Oscar asked for his help. So he decided to tell everything to her. Naomi was collected. “Okay! Let’s become Zocy’s family. But if Oscar loves her, why doesn’t he tell her frankly? Why did he ask her to pretend to be his girlfriend?”

“It’s none of your business.” Shawn pushed the other share of breakfast to her. “Eat it. We’ll go back after breakfast.”

Naomi said, “Okay.” She began to eat and soon finished. Shawn took her out of the restaurant, went back to the presidential suite, packed up his luggage, and left the hotel directly.

The Fischer residence, Atopan. Emily camere with gifts. Barbara received her and they sat in the dining room for afternoon tea.

Emily asked, “Grandma Barbara, do you really want Naomi and Shawn to be together?”

Emily pouted. “You promised mel”

Barbara took a sip of the coffee and said slowly, “Emily! It’s useless for me to promise you anything. You have to be close to Shawn. What is the point of my promises if you can’t even get close to him

“What I want is a granddaughter–in–law who can have kids with Shawn. How can you have children with him if you can’t even get close to him?

“Emily, I will make it up to you! I’ll let Shawn cooperate with you on the land in the east of the city. What do you think?”

“Barbara, I didn’t want to tell you but I can’t bear to keep it from you.” Emily clamped her lips like she had made up her mind. “Actually, Cheryl was pregnant with Shawn’s child. But Naomi hired someone to beat her up so she had a miscarriage.”

Barbara was shocked. “What? How dare Naomi be so audacious?”

Emily said sadly, “Cheryl and I are good friends. She didn’t dare to let Shawn know that she was pregnant. She begged me to help her find a hospital to keep the baby. But somehow, Naomi found out.

“Naomi has done a lot of evil things in the name of Shawn because she is Shawn’s favorite. Shawn has spoiled her. Sooner or later, Naomi will trample on you.”

Barbara said, “That’s outrageous.” Then she picked up her phone and called Naomi. As soon as the phone was answered, she changed her tone of voice. “Naomi! Are you with Shawn?”

Naomi said, “Yes, I’m with Shawn. What’s going on, Barbara?”

Barbara sounded outrageously loving. “I am fine. I just want to ask you if Shawn has bullied you. If Shawn bullies you, remember to tell me. I will help you

“Besides, if some bitches want to seduce Shawn, attack. Don’t let those bitches get a chance to challenge you.”

Naomi said, “Okay, got it.” Emily’s face darkened. She wondered what Barbara

meant.

Emily even wondered if Barbara was deliberately humiliating her.

Barbara asked Naomi to take care of herself and buy whatever she wanted in a soft voice. She even said if Naomi needed money, let her know.

From the very beginning, Barbara

at Emily from time to time, which

nded enthusiastic and friendly. She glanced de Emily uneasy.

After talking to Naomi over the phone, Barbara looked at her and said, I’m sorry, Emily. I didn’t hear what you just said. And I was too old. I forgot everything you just said.”

Emily looked gloomy, but she forced a smile. “Barbara, I didn’t say anything. I just wanted you to take care of yourself.”

“That’s for sure. Shawn isn’t married and hasn’t had a child yet. Naturally, I will take good care of myself.

“Emily, are you going to stay here for dinner? I’ll ask the chef to make something for you.”

Emily didn’t have any appetite anymore. She stood up. “Barbara, I have something else to do. I’m leaving now.”

Barbara said, “I’ll ask the butler to walk you to the door.” She stood up. “Emily, come over when you’re free. My life is kind of boring. I like talking with you young people.”

Emily said, “Good. I’ll come back.”

Emily’s smile was unnatural. After leaving the Fischer residence and getting in the car, she lost her temper completely.

She shouted, “You old slut! How dare you fool me! Wait for it! I’m going to ruin Naomi’s life.”

Her bodyguard Frank handed her a cup of water and said in a low voice, “Ms. Fowler, calm down.”

Emily said, “Will the truth about Cheryl be found out?”

“Ms. Fowler, don’t worry. They won’t find out that you’re involved in it.” Frank paused for a while and then said slowly, “Ms. Fowler, Shawn is not worth what you did.”

“What do you know about it?” Emily glad at Frank and said, “Shawn is so proud. I just want him to be humble in front of me. It will be best if he kneels before me and begs for my love.”

Frank was silent. He didn’t think Emily was dreaming. She was killing herself, Emily said, “Frank, what’s that face? You don’t believe me?”

Frank said, “Ms, Fowler, Oscar contacted Shawn and asked Naomi to be Zoey’s family, Oscar must be serious”

Frank tried to change the subject. He didn’t want to argue with Emily about those meaningless things.

He said, “Mr. Fowler said if you couldn’t be with Shawn, he would consider the Rogers family.”

“My Dad is crazy to let me consider Oscar Emily rolled her eyes and said, “If so, let’s talk to Zoey then.”

Frank said, “Ms. Fowler, don’t mess with Naomi,

Emily slapped Frank across the face and said, “Who are you? Frank! You are my bodyguard. Don’t give me any orders.”
