My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 929

The adults quickly headed somewhere for a good chat. Meanwhile, Naomi was being approached by

Harley's eldest son, Benedict Louis, also known as Cutie Pie.

"Naomi!" Benedict's face was full of smiles as he said, "I went to watch the archery tournament that you

mentioned last time. It just so happens that they'll be having a tour in Rosaville City a few days later.

I've bought the tickets, so let's go together!"

Naomi reached out and flicked him on the forehead, reprimanding, "What did you call me? Don't you

know you should address me with respect?"

Benedict rubbed his forehead and complained, "But you're not my sister! And you're not much older

than me either!"

"I'm six years older than you, isn't that considered much older? How rude!"

Benedict only smirked as he whispered, "There are couples that get together although they are several

years apart! And they're all doing fine too!"

However, Naomi did not pay attention to him as her gaze was fixated on someone else.

In a corridor some distance away, a man's figure walked past.

It was initially impossible for her to be attracted solely by a man's back, but the man's side profile was

oddly familiar.

Subconsciously, she chased after him.

When Benedict turned around, there was already no one behind him. Benedict let out a depressed

sigh, his fingers tightening around the tickets in his pocket.

Eddison Granger, also known as Sugar Bun, had long noticed this. He walked over and said, "Ben, are

you planning to ask my sister to watch the match with you? I'll help you!"

Benedict patted Eddison on the shoulder and laughed, "That's great! Tell me what you want and I'll

definitely help you with it!"

"Great! If you can ask your little sister to stop clinging to me, I'd be satisfied!!"

Just as he finished speaking, he heard the 12-year-old Yannie Louis running over from behind, calling

out, "Eddy!"

Behind her was Nathan Gellert, who was two years younger than her, panting and shouting behind her,

"Yannie, don't run so fast!"

Eddison was speechless.

He snatched the tickets away from Benedict's

hand and said, "I'll go first. Good luck with the kids!"

Naomi did not find anyone after chasing after the man. Just when she was planning to wander further,

she heard the emcee's voice announcing that the birthday celebration was about to start. With no

choice, she stopped and decided to head back.

From a young age, she understood that she wasn't just living for herself. As a filial daughter, she had to

take good care of not only her mother, but also her brother.

Furthermore, she was also the eldest of the group of children. Therefore, she had to set a good

example for them at all times.

Naomi had always reminded herself that she had to stay sensible all the time.

She took a deep breath and cleared her thoughts. A while later, she turned around and headed back.

On the stage, Naomi put on a tiara that Eudora had given to her. She held the microphone and

announced loudly to everyone.

"My name is Naomi George. From today onwards, I will officially enter Valiant East. I will require your

kind assistance and guidance in the future, so please take care of me!"

The audience burst into thunderous applause.

Following that was the gift- presenting session. Many prepared exquisite gifts for her, but such a

session would repeat itself every year. Naomi no longer had any expectations, so she headed towards

Eudora and told her.

"Mom, I have to leave first. Please ask Auntie Cindy to bring the gifts to my room. I'll take a look at

them at night!"

Tina could not help but ask her, "It's still early. Why are you leaving so soon?"

Despite Tina's attempts to stop Naomi, Eudora stopped her, "It's fine, go ahead! I'll make the necessary

arrangements!"

"Thank you, mom!" With that, Naomi left!

Instead of going home, she headed to Leslie's place. She had been there for almost ten years training

herself, and it was considered her second home.

A year ago, she had taken over Leslie's organization. After being handed the organization, Leslie had

expanded and revamped its operations to develop the company into a perfectly legal chamber of

commerce.

Meanwhile, Naomi also helped many of the employees start up new businesses of their own. Of

course, this was part of her mother's idea.

Many years ago, she had always hoped that this organization could return to normal.

She managed not to let her mother down and managed to help her mother fulfil her dreams.

The middle-aged man at the door saw her and asked directly, "Miss Naomi, you're back?"

Naomi nodded and the door was opened.

She walked in slowly but did not enter the house. Instead, she sat outside in the garden for a while.

In this garden, she had been training and honing her self-defense skills daily for a decade. On days

when she refused to practice, she would leave small marks on the stone table that were still visible till

today.

Naomi reached out and touched it. Now that she looked back on those times, she was just acting like a

brat.

Just then, she heard footsteps from being her and she hurriedly got up. Leslie walked out with a cane.

"You're back?"

"Yes, Master Clarke!" Naomi walked over and helped him over. She asked him, "How are you feeling

today?"

Leslie shook his head and told her, "I'm fine, I won't croak that early yet!" Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Back in the days, Leslie had spent most of his time wandering and venturing in the wilderness. This

took quite a toll on his body. Hence, it wasn't strange that he would suffer from various minor ailments

in his old age.

Naomi pursed her lips, but before she could say anything, Leslie asked her.

"What position did your parents arrange for you in Valiant East?"

Naomi paused for a moment before replying, "Nothing much, just a small position in the project and

development department! I told them that I wanted to start from scratch and not as a leader the minute

I enter the company. Otherwise, there will be many things that I won't understand..."

"Well, it seems you've considered a lot!" Leslie sounded somewhat unhappy as he harrumphed, "You

obviously don't like it, so why are you still trying so hard? Just be straightforward and tell your parents

what you want to do. Or, you can choose to deal with it and come back if it doesn't work out. Our

chamber of commerce also needs you very much!"

Naomi burst out laughing, "You really know me the best, but didn't you also say that we should finish

what we started? Since I'm going to work there, I must complete my work well! Besides, my brother is

still young, and I have to help with the family affairs!" "You..." Leslie sighed, "You are really more

stubborn than your mother. Well, I guess everything I said is pointless. Judging by your character, I

don't think anything I say can sway your decision. Have it your way, you can continue sacrificing

yourself for others!"

"Alright!" Naomi sniffled before laughing, "I don't feel like I'm sacrificing myself. As long as you and my

family are all healthy and happy, why would I worry? Besides, I can come back to visit you whenever

I'm free!"

Leslie nodded. He silently grabbed a present he had prepared behind his back and tossed it on the

table.

"This is for you! You're already 20 years old now, so you need to live your own life!"

Naomi picked up the gift and smiled, "Thank you, Master Clarke!"

Leslie snorted again before saying, "Go home! Your parents must be wondering why you have not

returned yet. I know them very well! If you don't go home now, they will start badmouthing me again!"

At the same time, Amos and Eudora both suddenly sneezed.

The two of them looked at each other in dismay and asked, "Is someone scolding us?"

Seconds alter, the two of them laughed in unison, "Leslie!"
