Chapter 1173 A Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing
After Naomi successfully entered the office, Aaron made his escape.
The two people stood in silence, neither of them saying a word.
Naomi stood right in front of Culver’s office table, while Culver lowered his head as he read the documents. He didn’t lift his head to greet her.
After a long time, Naomi took a deep breath and summoned her courage to start the conversation.
“Thank you for what happened last time. I came here today because I want to reimburse you for the damage to your car last time. I’ve brought the money, and I’ll give it to you now!”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Hearing that, Culver’s fingers suddenly stopped in their writing.
He knew that she had no money. Otherwise, she would not have gotten into such a mess with Evan a few days ago because of the project.
The Granger family was wealthy indeed, but with her personality, she would ask her family for money!
So, had she suddenly become rich?
A fit of anger suddenly rose in Culver’s chest.
“Ha! Who is it?”
“What?” Naomi failed to understand his question for a moment. In order to get enough money from Culver, she had been so busy recently that she could not even rest for a moment.
Furthermore, she encountered a bad incident the last time.
However, fortunately, her hard work had paid off. She had gathered the money quickly and came to him to pay off the debt.
She told herself that from then on, she would no longer owe Culver anything.
Who would have expected that Culver would have such a tone?
“Who did you sell yourself to gor this sum of money?”
Culver’s disdainful words were like a knife, stabbing straight into Naomi’s chest. She immediately held her breath and asked, “In your heart, am I that kind of person?!”
She sounded a little hurt, which made Culver feel a little regretful.
He did not dare say what was in his heart. He knew that she was keeping a distance from himself and was finding ways to gather the money to pay him back.
He had been jealous the entire time and doing so had almost driven him mad when he saw that she didn’t care for what methods she had to use to earn money like the last time he had seen her in a business meeting.
Culver frowned. As he hesitated to speak, Naomi had already opened her mouth.
“No matter what you think of me, the money is all on this card, and the password is written on the back of the card. From now on, I don’t owe you any more!”
She was no longer in his debt!
Therefore, was she going to break off all relations with him?
Subconsciously, Culver picked up the card and threw it back.
“Take it!”
Naomi bent down and picked up the card.
“What do you mean?”
“It’s dirty!”
Culver blurted out.
Naomi’s fingers, which held onto the card, tightened slightly, “Culver, although you have helped me, I will really be angry if you continue to behave unreasonably!”
Haha…
Unexpectedly, Naomi showed her true colors at that moment.
“What? You’re not pretending to be reasonable with me?”
Naomi pursed her lips. “What exactly do you want?”
“I don’t want anything! I just don’t want your money!” Culver thought to himself that as long as he didn’t accept Naomi’s money, she would always remember him in her heart. That way, she would always owe him!
Culver told himself in his heart.
Naomi was rendered speechless.
“Perhaps, you can…”
Naomi hesitated for a while and tried to say something.
However, before she could finish her words, someone had already pushed open the office door. Aaron, standing outside, reported, “Mr. Olsen, Miss Zac is here!”
Then, Queenie, with a body that smelled of perfume, entered from the outside.
“Cul…”
Naomi opened her mouth and swallowed back her thoughts.
Then, Naomi turned around and went out, saying, “Since Mr. Olsen has something to do, I’ll leave first!”
After that, before Culver could answer, she had already turned around and walked out with her card.
When the door closed, Culver looked at Queenie in annoyance. Queenie had deliberately shown affection towards Culver in front of Naomi on purpose. It was actually a bet on her end.
Seeing that Culver was not angry, Queenie thought that she had succeeded.
Then, she became even more coquettish.
“Culver, do you think my necklace looks good on me? I’ve also bought you a necklace! It’s a couple set. Let me help you put it on.”
Culver answered in a low voice.
“Leave it on the table!”
However, Queenie would never let go of such a chance to get closer to Culver. She took out the necklace and gesticulated in front of Culver.
“I’ve always thought that this retro style suits you best. Look, this gem…”
“Get out!”
“Culver…”
“Get lost!”
Culver suddenly roared, and Queenie was so scared that she threw away the necklaces in her hand.
She was still in a state of shock as she looked at Culver. It was the first time that Culver had lost his temper with her, wasn’t it? He was just as terrifying as the devil from hell!
She did not dare to stay any longer. She turned around and ran out.
Culver looked at Queenie’s back sarcastically and sneered.
That was right. There was only one person in the world who dared to be hard-headed with him when he was angry.
That person was Naomi!
The phone on the table rang, and it was a familiar ringtone. It was the ringtone that Culver had specially set for Naomi.
Did that woman regret her actions?
She must have been jealous of Queenie when she saw her just then.
At the thought of that, a trace of joy inexplicably rose in Culver’s heart. He picked up his phone and tried his best to restrain his emotions as much as possible before answering the call.
“Hello?”
At the other end of the phone was really Naomi. She did not pause at all. As soon as the call was connected, she went straight to the point.
“Mr. Olsen, it doesn’t matter if you don’t want the money. I’ve already donated it to the welfare center under your name! On behalf of the children in the foster center, I’d like to thank Mr. Olsen for your kind donation!”
Culver was stunned.
This woman had actually…
“Where’s the evidence? Who can prove it’s donated under my name? Naomi, I won’t acknowledge this donation!”
“Mr. Olsen, there’s no need for you to acknowledge it. Now, the news of Mr. Olsen’s enthusiasm and kindness has spread on the Internet. A place in this year’s top ten outstanding youths in Greene City belongs to Mr. Olsen again!”
Culver was extremely enraged!
He decided to take back the thought that Naomi was cute every time she talked back to him.
He wanted to strangle Naomi right then, immediately!
…
After Naomi hung up on the call, she took a deep breath and dissipated the suffocating feeling in her chest.
She used to think that Culver was different from ordinary rich playboys. She had thought that although he had a bad temper and was a bit abnormal, at least he had a good understanding of the world. His opinion on love was also considered pure.
As she thought about it once again, wasn’t he the same as the other men?
The most annoying thing was that she actually felt a little sad in her heart!
Naomi punched herself hard in the chest, and the strange feeling quickly disappeared. She did not want to be a bitter woman!
At that moment, not far behind her, a pair of threatening eyes were looking at Naomi.
Queenie kept the expression on her face, “Uncle Louis, are you feeling better? I’ll visit you later. I’ll bring you whatever you want to eat! Oh, by the way, guess who I saw just now? Naomi George! She came to look for Culver, but I guess that it was for business! I heard Culver say that they are friends!”
“Friend?” Evan paused for a moment. “If so, why did Culver act like a kind-hearted man who saved the damsel in distress the last time? Could the two of them be scheming against me together?”
“Ah! If so, Uncle Evan, I didn’t say anything! Just pretend that you didn’t hear anything from me! I still have things to do, so I need to hang up right now!”
After she hung up on the call, Queenie looked coldly in the direction which Naomi had left, a satisfied smile hanging at the corners of her mouth.
