"Great acting." Jack snickered mockingly."So, you think I planned all this?" Naomi's nose was sore. She bore through the grievances she felt and asked Jack."Stop pretending! You and I are done!" Jack looked at her in detest. He coldly turned around, picked Old Mister Hough up, went around her, and got in the car. He did all this as if she did not exist! At that moment, Naomi's heart hurt, like a knife stabbing into her. Finally, she could not hold back anymore. Tears started forming in her eyes."Someone, come and escort this b*tch out!"After Jack and the rest left, Andrea smiled maliciously."There is no need! I'll leave!" Naomi swept Andrea a cold glance. She turned around and rubbed her reddened eyes before striding away."Hmph! Don't you dare think of marrying into the Houghs! You're not worthy of it!" Andrea mocked coldly, looking at Naomi leaving.At that moment, Andrea got a phone call from Clarissa. "Andrea, I'm worried for you. Did you do anything stupid? Is everyt
Crack! At the side of the road, Naomi raised her phone and slammed it brutally onto the blond thug's head. The phone instantly cracked into two! "Ow!" The blond thug wailed while clutching his head. "What are you guys still standing there for? Get her!"The other thugs immediately rushed at Naomi when they heard the orders."I'll just deal with you all on my own!"Naomi cracked her neck and wrists. Her eyes were extremely cold. "Unfortunately for you guys, I'm in a bad mood today!""Hehe, you have tiny limbs, who do you think…ouch!"A thug approached her condescendingly. Before he could finish his sentence, Naomi kicked his crotch, making him fall to the ground wailing.Naomi sneered. "I've always been accurate in where I hit!"A few years back, when Naomi was in her rebellious teenage years, she had secretly learnt martial arts. Even Scott did not know that she was the District Champion in Scatter Boxing! The other thugs were now aggravated. They swarmed her all at once.
Jack was dressed in black, approaching Naomi like a huge, looming mountain.Chills ran down Naomi's back. She immediately sat up straight and proper. She was feeling quite nervous."Are you feeling better?" Jack towered over Naomi, looking down at her, sizing her up. His gaze fell on the bruises on her arm. A hint of darkness flashed across his eyes.Smith the butler had already told him everything about the blind date. Scott had secretly changed the blind date to Clarissa instead of Naomi. Naomi was kept in the dark. Jack's meeting with Naomi was just a coincidence."It's only light injuries, it's almost healed," Naomi answered in a fake nonchalance. She uncovered the sheets and got up."I've seen the video. We no longer owe each other anything. I'll make a move first." Naomi said a couple of polite words and wanted to leave. She did not want to get involved with a person like Jack who was nothing but trouble.Jack reached his arm out and blocked her in her path."What are you
"Are you a dog?!""You're the creature with your inhumane ways!" Naomi hardened her neck and glared at Jack curtly."If I don't get married, Grandpa will refuse to get treated. His sickness is quite serious right now so we cannot drag on any longer!" Jack's expression was serious. His deep, dark gaze had a hint of pain in them too."Okay, then I won't tell him." Naomi secretly observed Jack's reaction. She thought that she was rather reckless a moment ago. However, she was also curious."Then, why didn't you just get a fake marriage with another woman earlier? Why did you have to wait until now?""I hate those women." At the thought of those women using all sorts of ways to fling themselves at him, Jack furrowed his brows tightly. His eyes were filled with disgust."Then why could you… have you fallen in love with me at first sight?!" Naomi suddenly widened her eyes. She was secretly starting to get smug. She had been labelled as beautiful since she was young. She was very confid
"You've seen this gun before?""I-I…I-I…I've never seen it before! I'm just interested in firearms," Naomi frantically denied. It was so obvious that she was lying. Luckily, Jack did not pry further."Stay the night at the hospital to let them observe your injuries. I'll get Sean to send you back tomorrow.""Okay then." At the thought of having to face Scott if she returned home, Naomi would prefer peace in the hospital. She nodded and agreed to Jack.In the end, under Naomi's and Jack's extremely strong persuasion, Old Mister Hough finally agreed to delay the discussion of their wedding until after her exams.That night, Naomi stayed in a luxurious high-class ward. There was even a nurse there to massage her, allowing her to sleep soundly.The next morning, Naomi woke up spiritedly. Sean was already waiting outside the door. He passed her a new set of clothes.They were a fitting short white t-shirt with a secretive-looking Persian cat embroidered on it and wide-legged sweatpan
"Spreading rumors and defamation will not only land you a hefty fine, but you will also have to go to prison. You might want to think before doing this. Do you dare defame the Hough Corp?""You better consider this carefully. Bribery is not worth risking your life over!"Naomi said logically and sensibly. In her last sentence, she even slowed down and enunciated clearly. She did not raise her tone, but it was filled with danger.The paparazzi looked at each other, baffled and in a daze."I'll give you all one more chance. Are there any other questions?" Naomi cleared her throat and looked at them."Miss Green. We're sorry! We were just following orders from our boss! This has nothing to do with us!" A smart reporter immediately came to his senses. He apologized to Naomi while deleting the footage he took of Naomi in front of her.The others soon follow suit."Missus Hough, so sorry! We're fools!"The smarter ones immediately changed their attitude and the topic."Missus Hough,
After dealing with the reporters, Naomi headed to her class, Class F.However, on the way there, everyone was looking at her weirdly. Some even pointed at her, discussing amongst themselves in hushed tones.Naomi was confused until she met her best friend, Susan, by the door of Class F."Susan, why are you here?" Naomi raised her eyebrows in surprise.Susan rarely came over to Naomi's class. They would mostly meet each other on the rooftop of the school."It looks like you don't know what has happened yet!" Susan said seriously. She took her phone out and passed it to Naomi."Someone created a post this morning on our campus forum, saying how you slept with many guys and dumped them! I'm guessing the whole school knows about it now!""Is that so?" Naomi was not only unfazed, but she even excitedly tapped into the post and had a look.The post was filled with her assorted so-called indecent photos. They were all so indecent it was hard to look at. It was completely faked yet pas
The moment the post was created, Susan immediately pinned it to the top.Instantly, everyone entered the post to have a look. Of course, that included curious Clarissa and Gary.Everyone tapped into the post with hatred for Naomi while pitying Gary. However, they never would have expected it! In the post, there were dozens of uncensored indecent photos of Gary!It was with multiple people! It was much more exciting than the fake photos of Naomi! Then, the original poster posted on how to determine if the photos were photoshopped or real, with a note: [Naomi deserved it! We're heartbroken for Gary's terrible love life!]Other than the photos, the post also published records of Gary undergoing cosmetic surgery.There were also records on how he had faked his thesis, getting Naomi to write on his behalf! There was also a link to a website to check on theses, proving none of the papers Gary wrote passed!There was even a caption saying, [It's hard being popular! How heartbreaking
