Naomi noticed that something was off. Heather usually greeted her with a bright smile. What was with the grim look today?Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
Naomi greeted her. After Heather came closer, she took Naomi's hand and whispered, "The Sabella family is here. Be prepared, Naomi."
Naomi smiled. No wonder Heather looked nervous.
After warning Naomi, Heather turned to Brendan. "Brendan, your grandfather intends to ease the relationship between our families. Don't argue with your grandfather later."
Brendan stuffed his hands in his pockets. "I know."
Madelyn suddenly skipped over. "You're back, Brendan!"
When she saw Naomi, her smile disappeared instantly. She even rolled her eyes at Naomi.
Seeing this, Naomi looped her arms around Brendan's. "Darling, you mentioned a hot spring earlier. Is it far away? Why don't we go for a couple's bath this weekend?"
"Sure." Brendan nodded.
Seeing Naomi and Brendan being playful with each other, Heather said, "Madelyn, you know Brendan well.
He only has eyes for the girl he likes. Please don't mind him. That's just how couples are. You'll understand once you're married."
Heather's implication was clear. Brendan didn't like Madelyn, so there was no room for her in his heart.
He was happy with Naomi, so Madelyn should quickly find someone else to marry and stop being a nuisance.
Madelyn pouted at Heather sadly, "Do you hate me, Mrs. Ludwig?"
"I didn't say that! It's just that, like my son, I can only see Naomi being my daughter-in-law."
Heather's meaning was clear. She didn't accept any other daughter-in-law unless it was Naomi. So Madelyn should stop with her nonsense.
Hearing this, Madelyn grew upset. She thought the rest of the Ludwig family would like her as long as she gained Jackson's approval. But the reality was no one from the Ludwig family liked her.
In fact, Jackson didn't like her either. But since he and Madelyn's grandfather fought in the trenches together, they had an unbreakable sense of brotherhood. So Jackson would help the Sabella family as much as he could.
"Hello, Brendan and Naomi." As the group entered the house, Henry stood up and greeted them.
Today, Patrick only brought the two siblings over without his useless son. Moreover, Clement no longer had any power in the company. Even his authority had been completely taken over by Henry.
After Naomi and Brendan arrived, dinner was served.

The chefs were all masters of their crafts, so the dinner was very sumptuous.
Meanwhile, Jackson had invited everyone over because he wanted to resolve the conflicts between Naomi and the Sabella family. It would ensure that Brendan and Henry would work well together in the future.
Brendan felt it was unnecessary. After all, he didn't need anyone's help. But for the sake of Jackson, he would tone down his hostility a little.
"The Sabella and Ludwig families have been close for many years or hope that Brendan and Henry can continue the familial friendship.
"And I hope that the two of them will help each other grow in business and help Astburgti prosper." Jackson E. smiled.
"Certainly. Each new generation excels over the previous. I'm sure Brendan and Henry would bring the companies to new heights." Patrick nodded along.
While the two talked, Naomi ate her meal silently. She didn't need to speak unnecessarily in this situation.
When she got up to use the washroom, Henry trailed after her.
Naomi sneered at Henry through the mirror. "You're quite bold to follow me around when the rest of the Ludwig family is present, Henry."
Henry walked over and pressed against Naomi. "You flatter me."
He added, "But my dad's retirement is all thanks to you, Naomi."
Not far away, the approaching figure stopped abruptly upon seeing the two of them.
