Chapter 237
Brendan turned away and remained silent. Naomi followed sult, also not keeping her silence.
The two remained silent for a while. Brendan suddenly spun on his heels and said coldly. "If a child is all you want, Naomi, then let me make it clear today. You're not getting a child."
He wouldn't allow himself to be used as a sperm bank Naomi turned around too. "Fine, we won't have children if you don't wan want to.
There were plenty of fish in the sea. Where should she stay hung up on him? With that, Naomi turned to leave, but Brendan grabbed her arm again.
Naomi glared at him. "What? Are you going to take-"
Brendan interrupted her. "Naomi Goodwin, if you dare to mess around outside, the Goodwin-"
Naomi smirked. "Are you threatening me?
She pushed away Brendan's hand and stepped forward, fully pressing herself against him.
"Brendan, I don't owe you anything. Let me make one thing clear to you. I got married because I believed in those fortune tellers, and I wanted to have a child.
"And what do you think I will do if you can't give me what I want?"
Naomi didn't want to argue with him at first, but Brendan had been treating her too lightly.
She had always been an agreeable person. Yet Brendan was constantly keeping the truth from her. Naomi felt that their marriage was meaningless.
Back when they had just gotten married, Naomi hadn't been in it for the child. She'd also hoped to spend her life with him, thinking that time would heal the pain caused by Sophia's death.
The fact was, she had overestimated her importance in Brendan's life. He had agreed to the marriage just to torture her and give his parents peace of mind.
Naomi didn't want to search for the good in Brendan now.
Her frankness was met with a sarcastic smile from Brendan. "If that's the case, you can forget about ever having children."
He was wondering why Naomi agreed to marry him when she clearly hated him. It seemed that he had overestimated his importance in her eyes.
Naomi stared at Brendan. "Fine, let's see who comes out of this alive."
Hearing this, Brendan stuffed his hands in his pockets and pushed past Naomi, swiftly leaving the house. Since Brendan was gone, Naomi wasn't in a hurry to leave.
With just one test report, their lives returned to how they used to be. Brendan didn't come home, and Naomi threw herself into her work. Chapter 237

However, with less than four months left of the three-year time limit Samuel had given them, Naomi had already prepared for the worst.
She shouldn't have agreed to marry Brendan back then. Their relationship had already beened before.
How could she expect to put aside their problems and get together?
One couldn't fix a broken vase, let alone a human's heart.
Brendan didn't return home for ten days, and there was zero contact between them. Naomi on the other hand, spent most of her day at the law firm, only returning home to catch some sleep before going back out again.
