Chapter 70 

Naomi tried to maintain her usual calm demeanor. Earlier, because of Shawn’s protection and indulgence, she had some inappropriate feelings for

But the moment she saw Cheryl appearing at Spring Villa, she completely suffocated those feelings. 

“Mr. Fischer, I’m sorry. If I did something wrong, please forgive me.” Naomi lowered her head, trying to be as obedient as possible. Her dark circles were prominent, and her face, which was already petite, seemed even smaller. 

During these three days of gathering herbs, she was actually very tired. After coming back, she didn’t even have time to rest and went straight to making the ointment 

She wanted to preserve the herbis maximum efficacy; otherwise, those efforts would be in vain. 

But as a result, she ended up feeling even more exhausted. 

When she wanted to do something, she would definitely y put in the utmost effort and wouldn’t give up until she achieved her goal. 

Shawn once admired this determination in her, Init right now, he couldn’t articulate his frustration. 

““Go cat,” he grumbled. 

“Yes, Mr. Fischer,” she said.. 

Thank you, Mr. Fischer she added 

Watching her being so obedient, Sławn’s inexplicable anger intensified. He returned to hus seat with a grim expression and once again ruchlessly cut the steak

Naomi pundered for a moment before starting with the oatmeal, She had been hungry for some time, her stomach a gaunt echo chamber, hardly the right condition for wine. 

After finishing the oatmeal, she finished the pancakes and croissants, then scrambled eggs and blueberry muffins, and finally drank the red wine to prevent Shawn from getting angry again 

While she was eating. Shawn was watching her the whole time. Since their first meal together, Naomi noticed that he enjoyed watching her eat and sometimes even fed her.

Carla sighed while speaking. “Ms. Edwards, go and let Boss rest for a while, okay?” 

Naomi fell silent for a moment, then turned and heated a glass of milk. “Thank you for telling me this, Carla Lunderstand”“

Naomi smiled faintly. “Don’t worry, Carla. I appreciate Boss’s kindness. I’m not ungrateful, and I won’t repay kindness with enmity? 

Her life was saved by Shawn 

In both this life and the previous one, it was him 

Therefore, Shawn’s bad temper was nothing to her 

Naomi carried the milk to the third floor. Shawn sat at his desk, fingers resting on his forehead, and on the table was the box of ointment she had given him

Nuomi pul down the milk and looked at him expectantly. “Mr. Fischer, I’m going to take a shower and change my clothes. I couldn’t sleep these på days without you by my side. Can I sleep here with you later!” 

Shawn glanced at her, meeting her hopeful and anxious gaze. 

“If you’re uncomfortable with that, I’ll just sleep in my own room, Mr. Fischer. I shouldn’t have been too offensive,” she added. 

Shawn remained silent, prompting Naomi to explain for herself, “Although I might have trouble sleeping. I can’t afford to upse 

Shawn finally said, “You’ve wasted enough time talking your nonsense. Go take a shower?

Despise feeling tired and exhausted, Naomi took her time to shower and then moisturized her skin. 

She used the skincare products and body lotion prepared for her by Carla. 

After freshening up. Naomi returned to the third floor. 

Shawn took a quicker shower than her, by now, he had clunged into a robe and was lying on the bed. 

“Come here, he said.

Chapter 70. 

Shawn and Naomi both slept soundly. When they woke up. It was already early morning the next day. 

They woke up at the same time, and Naomi was briefly stunned, feeling a surreal sensation. Shawn broke the silence first, “Morning” 

In light of her role in letting him have a good night’s rest, he decided not to blame her for treating Derek so well–for the time being 

“Good morning. Mr. Fischer,” she replied, 

Naomi glanced at her phone; she needed to catch up on her comic updates. 

The deadline for submission to the International Jewelry Design Competition was also approaching.
