Heather's actions gave Brendan a feel of the situation. She must've asked about Naomi's impending pregnancy and found out that Naomi wasn't pregnant.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

pasures, so she wan Or she must have found out that he'd been taking contraceptive releasing her frustration on him.

Seated beside Ronald and Heather, Naomi pretended to be unaware of Heather's behavior toward Brendan.

An hour later, the lively dinner came to an end. Everyone began singing the birthday song for Fiona and asked her to make a wish.

"Grandma, whatever wishes you make tonight will come true." Brendan's cousin, Theresa Ludwig, bent down as she spoke to Fiona.

Although Fiona was already 82 years old, she was still full of life and healthy.

Upon hearing Theresa's words, she looked around and said, "My first wish is for Brendan and Naomi to give me a great-grandchild so that our family continues growing."

"Brendan, Naomi, do you hear that? Grandma places a great hope on the both of you."

"Brendan, Naomi, try your best!"

"Good luck!"

Heather was heartbroken at their advice and encouragement. If they didn't have children and eventually got divorced, they might anger Fiona so much that they'd drive her to her death.

"Aunt Heather, why are you so quiet today? Are you unhappy?" Ronald stood beside Heather and noticed her mood at a glance.

Heather responded with a fake smile, "I'm having a headache and feeling slightly unwell. Have some more, Ronald."

Ronald replied, "Alright, I'll finish off your portion as well."

After Fiona finished making her wish, Theresa began to cut the cake. Ronald picked a slice topped with chocolate and offered it to Naomi Heather sighed. If only Brendan had that kind of initiative.

When she turned to look at Brendan, she realized he hadn't come over to sing the birthday song, nor had he eaten any cake. Heather walked closer to him and whacked him hard.

Brendan raised an arm to block her. "Mom, what are you doing?"

Heather was so furious, she felt her heart ache.

She said, "What am I doing? Have you forgotten what you'd promised me? Was what you promised confidently that day in the mansion just a plot to deceive everyone?

"Brendan, how am I supposed to talk to you? You've even come up with the idea to take contraceptive measures secretly.

"How could you do such an unethical thing? Naomi married you. If you didn't want to make a life with her, you shouldn't have agreed to the marriage in the first place!"

When she recalled Brendan's horrible behavior throughout the two years that he and Naomi had been om together she felt that they had let Naomi down. It was more so considering his scandals and the fact that he'd allowed Chloe to remain as his secretary.

How could she have given birth to such a good-for-nothing son?

If she were Naomi, she might've been killed by her anger a long time ago. Fresh shoots would've already sprouted on her grave.

Brendan straightened his clothes after listening to Heather's criticisms.

He said calmly, "Naomi is still young. In addition, she's wholly devoted to her job. Let's wait two years. before considering children."

"Wait for two years?" Heather was furious. "I think you're waiting to get a divorce next year. Don't think that the people around you can't see through your plans."

Once they reached the end of the adjustment period set by Samuel for February, Brendan would be able to file for divorce.

Brendan was unhappy that Heather thought of him like that.
