Boomerang Love

Naomi wasn't a kind person, and Christine had known it since Naomi was a child.

Naomi replied, "I'm not plotting anything. In fact, I almost got taken advantage of by someone.

Her words alarmed Christine. "Naomi, what happened?"

Naomi smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry about it. Just go with Dad to the event. Otherwise, people will say you're petty.

Christine sighed before agreeing. "Then, I'll go with your dad."

So, on Saturday evening, Christine attended the banquet with Dennis. As for Naomi, she had et to return to Yellowind Bay since she rejected Brendan a few days ago.

Brendan didn't ask her to go with him to the Sabella family's event, so she attended it with Bailey.

Naomi donned a black dress, and Bailey, with her short hair, was wearing a suit. The pair stood together, exuding a commanding presence that drew the gaze of many guests.

"Naomi, how dare you still have the nerve to show up here? If I were you, I'd find a hole to crawl into," Madelyn said. She had confronted the two of them as soon as they had arrived at the banquet.

Holding a handbag in her right hand, Naomi replied with a smirk, "You seem so happy about making a bad deal. The Sabella family is indeed something."

Madelyn was on the verge of arguing but held back. "Naomi, you're just envious and bitter. Besides, my brother is so smart. He wouldn't have agreed if it was a bad deal."

Naomi responded, "I've been closely monitoring the South Glistenville project this whole time. It won't be easy for the Sabella family to avoid losses."

Madelyn shot back, "We have a dedicated quality inspection department, Naomi. You don't need to keep an eye on us. Don't try to comfort yourself. Do you know how much the Sabella Group's stock has risen since we secured this project?

"Some things go beyond immediate profits," Naomi replied.

The most gratifying thing for the Sabella family in recent days was the soaring stock prices, which had brought them many other benefits.

Naomi quipped, "Then, I hope the Sabella Group's stock continues to rise."

Finally gaining the upper hand verbally, Madelyn felt relieved.

When her eyes fell on Bailey, who was standing beside Naomi, she noticed Bailey giving her a cold, intense look.

Madelyn recalled how Naomi had beaten her up and quickly slipped away in fear. Who knew what these two lunatics might do in public?

Besides, her mother had constantl, reminded her over the past two days to keep her composure tonight and not ruin their family's reputation.

As Madelyn hastily left, Bailey stood there with her hands in her suit pockets, smiling sarcastically.

If she had the guts, she shouldn't have run away!

Just as Madelyn left, Estelle and Pauline approached. Upon seeing Bailey dressed in a suit, Pauline scolded her sternly.

"Bailey, do you have any semblance of a proper young lady left in you? You have no shame! Can't least take your father's reputation into consideration? NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

"Just look around at the other girls here. Who else has short hair and is wearing a suit? If you don't care about upholding the Jenkins family's image, can't you at least avoid causing us trouble?"

Bailey's expression darkened. "What I wear is my own concern. It's none of your business."

"You..." Pauline was so infuriated that her face turned pale.__

Estelle pulled her aside and said, "Mom, she's already dressed like this. Can you please stop complaining about it?"

With Estelle's intervention, Pauline's complexion improved slightly.
