Chapter 1055

Naomi spoke without any hesitation or second thought. It could be said she refused immediately. With Charles's confession, she pondered for a long time and considered many aspects. She had been uncertain, unable to easily make a choice. However, Naomi did not think at all and just outright refused Scott's confession. After saying them, she did not feel any sense of loss or anxiety. Instead, she felt relieved. It was as if the restraints binding her had suddenly vanished, and she felt instantly at ease. As this ease filled her mind and body, her chaotic thoughts became exceptionally clear. She was immensely calm and rational. Scott froze. The depth in his eyes, the intense night-like darkness, vanished in an instant. It was as if, in a split second, he returned to being the old Scott, the perpetually aloof and distant man who was unapproachable. The things he said and his change in expression seemed like a mere illusion to Naomi. But she knew it was not an illusion nor a dream.
