Chapter 1128: Chapter 1128 Had He Found Out About Her Identity?

After Eddison left, Rachel ran out of the car.

Yvonne was about to take credit for her work, but she was greeted by complaints from Rachel. Rachel said, “You scared me. Why did you say that?”

Yvonne rolled her eyes and said, “My good friend is about to be taken away by him, so I needed to test him! However, he turned out to be quite decent! You have good taste! Now, you should be satisfied, right?”

Rachel smiled and said, “Thank you!”

Yvonne helplessly pointed at Rachel’s forehead and said, “You silly girl, why didn’t you think about why he needed so much money? What if he has a mistress somewhere?”

“That’s impossible!” Rachel opened her mouth and said, “He’s still a student!”

“So what if he is a student? Can’t he keep a mistress?”

“It’s impossible!” Rachel placed her hands on her waist, which made Yvonne laugh so hard that she could not keep her eyes open.

“Do you know what you look like now? You look like an angry mistress!”

“What?” Rachel hastily stood properly, saying, “Did I look very ugly? Did Eddison see me?”

“Who cares!” Yvonne turned around and left.

…

After Eddison received the money, he immediately transferred the money to his roommates, finally letting out a sigh of relief.

After he closed the chat box, he opened his school’s website and read the ranking on the school page. Sierra’s ranking was a little behind, but she was gradually getting more votes and catching up!

As long as her votes gradually increased until the deadline on the next day, Sierra should be able to rank first!

Eddison took a deep breath and looked down at his work schedule. Had he struck gold? He felt that he was a little too lucky.

He had met a person who was willing to give him an advance payment, and the job that person had given him was one he specialized in.

Maybe it was not a coincidence?

However, who would help him at a time like that?

Eddison shook his head. No matter what, he had to do his job well.

…

After a night’s rest, Eudora felt much more comfortable.

When she got up in the morning, Eudora found that Naomi had not come back either.

When Eudora asked Cindy about Naomi’s whereabouts, she had no idea either.

Eudora was truly worried. She immediately dialed Naomi’s number. Luckily, the call went through.

At that moment, Naomi had just fallen into a deep sleep.

After having a barbecue with Culver for the whole afternoon the previous day, she had a feeling that Culver seemed to be treating her a little better.

He no longer made things difficult for her, which was weird for her. However, later on, she thought that maybe that freak was stung by his own conscience!

However, he still had not returned her phone to her.

When she was in thought, a familiar ringtone rang. Naomi sat up immediately. She had set a special ringtone for everyone in her family. The call was obviously from Eudora.

Eudora must have been looking for her because she did not return home.

Her health was not in good condition. If Eudora were to find out that she had been locked up by Culver, she would definitely not be able to stand such a blow.

Naomi thought of that, and quickened her pace.

No matter what method she had to use, even if she had to beg, she had to ask Culver to give her back her mobile phone so that she would be able to comfort Eudora.

As she thought of that, she forcefully pushed open Culver’s door.

The door was not locked. As soon as she opened it, she saw a sliver of skin. Culver was changing his clothes. Naomi turned around in a hurry.

“I didn’t mean to peek!”

Culver was stunned for a moment. When he saw Naomi’s slightly red ears, the corners of his lips curled up.

“Wait a minute!”

Naomi’s back froze. He wasn’t thinking about asking her to take responsibility, was he?

“I didn’t see anything! I really didn’t!”

While she spoke, Culver had already walked over to her. What was even more repulsive was that he was still not wearing any clothes. His upper body was bared, so she could see his broad shoulders, his slender waist, and his toned six-pack.

Every step of his was domineering!

Naomi immediately remembered what Culver had done to her when she was tied up that day.

She hurriedly stepped back, “I’m warning you, I will fight back! Don’t think that you can do whatever you want just because you are a man! I…”

As she spoke, she began to wave her fists.

However, in the next second, her fists were caught by his big palms. Naomi’s heart jolted and she struggled hard, but she could not break free.

She should have thought of such a reaction!

Culver was no ordinary person. In the past, she could always hit him, but that was because he had not exerted his strength at all!

“Culver, I…”

Before Naomi could finish her sentence, her fingers had already been pried open. A tinge of coldness spread across her palm. She frowned and saw that it was her phone.

“Your phone is ringing!”

Naomi was confused.

Before all this, she had reckoned that she had seen a lot of people and had experienced human nature a lot, but Culver’s behavior confused her completely.

He would challenge her threshold whenever she thought that he was finally being nice, yet he would treat her nicely whenever she thought that he was mean and demanding.

For a moment, a plethora of thoughts flew through Naomi’s mind. She had completely forgotten that she had been staring at Culver’s upper body the entire time.

That was until she heard his soft laughter. “How long do you intend to stare?” he asked.

Naomi came to her senses and awkwardly turned her head away.

“I… It’s not what you think…”

“Then, what is it? Didn’t you just say that you’re going to fight back?”

Naomi was rendered speechless.

Feeling her cheeks burning, Naomi  turned her head in a hurry and ran away with her mobile phone in her hands.

…

In the corridor, Naomi answered the call only after she had calmed down.

On the other end of the call was Eudora’s anxious voice as she asked, “Naomi, where are you?”

“Mom!” Naomi gently stroked her chest, which was still beating wildly, as she tried to calm herself down. She replied, “I’m fine! I just have some business to deal with at the moment, therefore I went to settle it!”

“Are you really okay?”

“Yes, I’m really fine. It’s just that I couldn’t continue to look for Eddison. I don’t know what has happened to him!”

“He’s fine. Your father has found him. He is distributing leaflets outside now!”

Naomi’s heart skipped a beat. Was Sugar Bun actually distributing leaflets as a job?

“Mom, don’t worry. When I’m done with my work, I’ll go and find him immediately. I won’t let him…”

Before she finished her words, Eudora’s laughter could be heard from the other end of the phone as she said, “Naomi, did you know? When Sugar Bun was young and he saw someone giving out leaflets in a Tigger outfit, he liked it very much. At that time, I was thinking that Sugar Bun would probably not have such a chance to distribute leaflets in his entire life! I really didn’t expect that he would fulfill his childhood dream!”

Naomi was confused.

Naomi thought to herself, “Mom, please come to your senses. If this happened to someone else’s child, they would probably be heartbroken.”

“Mom, are you okay?” asked Naomi.

Exasperated, Eudora replied, “You don’t think I’m going mad, did you? Of course I’m happy for him! You and Sugar Bun can support yourselves. Even if you don’t have our protection, you can still support yourself. Why should I be unhappy? I’m really glad!”

Naomi also smiled.

That was right. Eudora really was such a person. She was always different from other people, but at the end of the day, she was a mother who loved her children with all her heart.

“Mom, I love you!”

Eudora was stunned, “Silly child, why are you saying that out of the blue? Although I’ve said all that, you still have to take care of yourself and Sugar Bun. Come back as soon as you finish your work, okay?”

“Okay!” Naomi nodded. As soon as she hung up on the call and turned back, she spotted Culver standing behind her.

“Was that your mother?” Culver asked.

Naomi’s heart tightened. Had he found out about her identity?
