My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 973

Richard said that he had things to do in the company, so he left. Before he left, he went out to buy

some daily necessities and food for Naomi and Nelson.

"If anything happens, you can call me and I will help you to deal with them!"

After Richard finished speaking, he looked at Naomi and said, "Miss George, I'll leave Mr. Luther in

your hands for the time being!"

Naomi nodded and said, "Okay! Don't worry!"

After Richard left, Naomi tidied up the room before she walked into Nelson's bedroom, pushing open

the door. Nelson was lying on the bed, and his face still looked a little unwell.

"Are you feeling better? Do you need any help?"

Nelson nodded and said, "Accompany me please! I'm a little bored."

It was the first time that Naomi had seen him acting so childish. She couldn't help but smile while

saying, "Then, I'll read today's news for you!." Nelson stayed silent as Naomi turned around to go to get

the newspaper. However, Nelson stopped her again.

"Aren't you curious about why I got captured? Don't you want to know what I'm hiding from you?"

Naomi stopped and said, "If you don't want to tell me, I won't ask!"

She understood how to respect the privacy of others, but she was indeed quite curious.

Nelson said, "I want to tell you though!" Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

His voice was soft.

Naomi's heart warmed and she quickly replied, "Then, I'll listen!"

After that, Nelson beckoned to her, "Come sit by my side!"

His movements were like magic as Naomi walked over and sat down in front of him.

Then, Nelson stated, "Actually, it's not that I was unwilling to tell you about my past. I just didn't know

where to start. At that time, after President Granger sent me abroad, I stayed there for a period of time.

At that time, I was still young and immature. When I was away, I always missed home. Can you guess

what happened one day? I saw the back of a girl who looked like you and I foolishly followed her. Later,

I accidentally fell into a trafficking gang's trap and was brought back from abroad by them!"

Naomi had no idea why, but she suddenly felt a lump in her throat.

The joy in his eyes when he mentioned about the back of the little girl had moved her.

She sniffled and asked, "Then, what happened?"

"I was threatened to do bad things in the neighboring city. When you all found me, I was there doing

things that I did not want to do. That period of time was really hard to imagine."

"Fortunately, it has all passed."

"However, I was still very happy, because I actually saw you once there. It was also that same time that

you all found me and then went to look for me."

"Later on, I was discovered by them. In order to not get noticed, they threw me into the sea.

Fortunately, I was blessed and met my adoptive parents. They saved me, and then I went abroad!"

As Nelson spoke of the past, his face no longer showed any traces of discomfort or sorrow. It was

obvious that he had completely let go of his past.

Naomi had no idea whether she should be happy for him or not.

"You know what happened later on. I lost my memory and stayed abroad for a period of time. After my

adoptive parents passed away, I wandered around by myself again. Then, I got to know Richard, and

we worked hard together to establish Inchee Company. I suspect that the people who had captured me

this time were sent by my rival! I had a little conflict with him before I came to Rosaville City!"

Naomi clenched her fists and said, "I'll ask Master Clarke to take care of them for you."

"Who's Master Clarke?" Nelson asked curiously.

"Oh, he's a good friend of Grandpa's..."

"There's no need for that. Richard will handle it!" After Nelson finished speaking, he stretched out his

hand and grabbed Naomi's finger.

"Why did you lie to me?"

Naomi was taken aback and said, "I didn't!"

He rubbed the teeth marks on her fingers and said, "You didn't? I heard Richard say that you were

bitten by those people because you tried to save me. Why didn't you tell me?"

Due to his incredibly gentle movements, a strange feeling gradually spread from the tip of her fingers to

her heart.

Ripples surged in her heart.

Naomi had no clue what to say and was a little speechless.

"It's okay, I don't feel any pain."

"But my heart does."

After Nelson finished speaking, he lowered his head and gently kissed her fingers while apologizing,

"I'm sorry, Naomi. I'll never let you be hurt again!"

Naomi felt her heart skip a beat.

She jumped up and stuttered, "I-I'm still brewing some soup outside. I'll bring a bowl for you."

After that, she fled.

The corners of Nelson's lips curled into a smile as he watched her run away.

Lunch was chicken soup, with no additional dishes!

Naomi originally thought that Nelson would complain about the dish, but he failed to do so . Instead, he

praised her and said that the soup was delicious.

Naomi's eyes lit up upon hearing a compliment about her cooking for the first time. She said proudly,

"This is what I learned from my mom. The soup she makes is delicious!"

"This soup is delicious because you made it, Naomi!"

Naomi pursed her lips and said, "Does your hand still inconvenience you?"

Nelson looked at it and said, "I think I can manage! Why don't you help me to bring the dishes over

and we'll eat them together?"

In the bedroom, a bowl of soup was placed on the small table by the bedside. The two of them ate side

by side silently.

The atmosphere was inexplicably warm.

All of a sudden, Nelson called out to Naomi.

"There's something on the corner of your mouth!"

Naomi was stunned. Just as she was about to reach out and brush it off, she saw Nelson slowly closing

in on her. She was so surprised that she froze on the spot. The next second, Nelson's lips brushed past

the corner of her mouth.

After that, the small piece of carrot fell into Nelson's mouth.

"Let's eat!"

He was incredibly calm, but Naomi herself was in a state of panic. It turned out that dating was quite

hard. Her heart had been overworking itself and was beating faster than normal every day.

Was this what it meant by having an irregular heartbeat?

She wondered if she should go for an examination for her heart. Master Clarke once said that a person

with a poor heart could die easily from too much shock.

Nelson saw that Naomi was staying quiet.

He asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

Naomi said casually, "Oh, it's nothing. I'm just thinking whether I should check my heart's condition or

not."

The next second, Nelson spat out a mouthful of soup.

He laughed so hard without any restrictions.

Naomi's face was gloomy as she asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing at you because you're so cute!" Nelson's eyes were full of smiles. "Have you been busy

practicing self-defense all these years that you haven't dated anyone?"

"Yes, that's right!" Naomi nodded. "I didn't even have any contact with any unfamiliar men for more than

ten times, even more so to get into a relationship! We met by chance!"

"That's my girl!" Nelson said with a smile. "It doesn't matter because I'll cure you."

As he spoke, his face drew closer and closer to her.
