When She Turns Her Back Novel

Chapter 454 Chapter 455 Naomi stood in the office, her skirt pushed down to her waist, leaving her upper body in nothing but a small camisole. But even with her standing there so exposed, Charles's eyes never once landed on her. Seeing how unmoved he was, Naomi cried out, almost losing it, "Charles, can you really say you're not holding anything back?" As soon as she finished, tears came pouring down her cheeks like pearls falling from a broken string. She was shaking on her feet, but still stubbornly refused to cover herself up.

After a few tense seconds, Charles finally stood up, walked over to Naomi, pulled her skirt back up, and gently wrapped his arms around her. "Naomi, let's wait until after we're married." Naomi broke down in tears, clinging to Charles as she demanded, "You always make me wait, but how much longer do I have to wait?" Charles gently pushed her away, looking down at her with as much tenderness as he could. "Naomi, tell me what you want. If money can buy it, I'll get it for you." Naomi kept shaking her head, tears streaming down her face as she sobbed, "I don't want anything.

I just want to be your woman, to be truly yours." Charles cupped her face in his hands, gently wiping away her tears with his thumb. "You already are." Naomi shook her head, her voice cracking. "No, that's not what I mean. I want to be your woman for real. You've never even touched me, not even once. Can't you just do it once, just this one time?" She lifted her face to Charles, her eyes begging him for an answer. Right then, Naomi felt lower than she ever had before, completely desperate. Charles looked at her, and for a moment, it was like he was seeing Teresa from years ago.

Back then, Teresa had pleaded with him just like this, asking him to stay with her, to go home and meet her family... Charles lost himself in memories of the past, zoning out for a moment. Noticing he was distracted, Naomi softly shook his arm. "Charles..." Charles came back to himself and looked at her, his voice gentle. "Once the divorce is done, that night will be ours, okay?" Naomi's eyes lit up, all the gloom vanishing. She asked, "So when's the divorce happening?" Charles stroked her hair tenderly.

"Just a couple more days, the hearing's about to start." 17:02 Fri, Dec 19 M Chapter 455 ... 48 155 Vouchers Naomi's eyes lit up. "Really?" Charles gently pulled her into his arms, resting his chin on top of her head as he nodded. "Yeah, really" Naomi cried even harder, burying her face in his chest as she sobbed, "Charles, I love you. I really, really love you." Charles kissed the top of her head, but didn't say a word. He couldn't help but think of another woman. After soothing Naomi, Charles reluctantly ate the lunch she'd brought for him.

Once lunch was over, Charles sent Naomi to rest in the lounge. Curled up in the covers that still carried Charles's scent, Naomi slept more peacefully than she had in ages. She ended up sleeping the whole afternoon away. When she finally opened her eyes, Charles was knocking on the door. "Naomi, it's six o'clock. Let's head home." Naomi shot up from the bed, not even bothering to put on her shoes. She hurried to the door, flung it open, and wrapped herself around Charles.

Standing on her tiptoes, she grazed his ear with her lips and whispered, "Charles, I dreamed about you." Charles paused for a moment, his first instinct was to push her away, but after a second's thought, he pulled her into his arms instead. He asked gently, "What did you dream about?" Naomi's face flushed bright red. Pressing close to his ear, she whispered shyly, "I dreamed about our first time together. You made love to me three times, and we didn't get any sleep at all." Her voice grew softer and softer as she spoke. Charles held Naomi close, but his thoughts started to wander off.

He was thirty, and Teresa was the only woman he'd ever been with. But every time with Teresa was just about making a baby. He'd never known what it was like to go at it all night long. Honestly, with Teresa, the whole thing was over in three minutes, tops. Maybe noticing Charles spacing out, Naomi looked up at him, curious. "Charles, what's wrong?" Charles came back to himself, glanced down at Naomi, and said, "It's nothing. Honestly, I'm looking forward to our first time too." Naomi's cheeks burned, and she mumbled shyly, "Charles, you're such a tease." Charles stepped back from her.

"It's already dark, let's head home." Naomi nodded. "Okay, I'll go get dressed." Chapt 433 55 Vouchers Once she was dressed, Naomi slipped her hand into Charles's, and they walked out of the office together. When they stepped out, the office floor was quiet-everyone had already left for the day. Charles pressed the elevator button, and they stepped inside. Neither of them said a word as the elevator descended. Naomi stared at their mirrored reflections on the elevator doors, her heart a mix of excitement and anxiety.

The elevator reached the parking garage, and when the doors slid open, they walked out hand in hand. Just as they reached Charles's Rolls Royce and were about to get in, a soft voice called out from the shadows behind them. "Naomi." Naomi instinctively turned around and saw Jason stepping out from the darkness. When he stepped into the light, he looked completely worn out. Naomi blinked in confusion, staring at him. "Jason?" Jason didn't even glance at Naomi and Charles holding hands. He went straight to her.

"Can I have a quick word with you?" Naomi made a point of swinging Charles's hand in hers. "Given everything that's happened, I don't think we should be talking alone right now. If you've got something to say, just say it in front of Charles." Jason gave a faint smile. "What situation?" Naomi said, "Those photos and videos online are all AI-generated. There's nothing going on between us..." Before she could finish, Jason cut her off. "AI?" Naomi didn't hesitate. "Yeah, AI." Jason let out a bitter laugh.

"So what do you want me to say right here, with Charles watching?" Naomi said, "I want you to tell the truth. There was never anything between us." Jason could read between the lines-she was asking for his help. Back then, he would've helped her without a second thought. But now, he just couldn't do it anymore. His woman was right there in front of him-how could he just let her be with someone else? Seeing Jason stay silent, Naomi tried to talk him around. "Jason, you and Charles, you're close, you guys..." Jason cut her off again.

"But for you, I'd drop him in a heartbeat." Naomi's face went pale with panic. "Jason, are you out of your mind? Do you hear yourself right now?" Jason didn't care about the consequences at all. "Naomi, we kissed, so what? Why should I hide it? That day in the practice room, I kissed you, I touched you, and you kissed me right back. You only pushed me away at the end, but I know you wanted it too..." Naomi kept giving Jason pleading looks, silently begging him to stop, but he just pretended not to notice and kept going, getting bolder with every word. Naomi had finally had enough.

She marched right up and landed a stinging slap on Jason's cheek. "Jason, you've lost your damm mind!" Jason's head was ringing from the slap. He just stood there, totally stunned, unable to process what had just happened. Behind them, Charles had zero interest in sticking around for their drama. He slipped into the car without a word. When Naomi turned around, she saw Charles was already reaching for the ignition. Without a second thought, she yanked open the back door and climbed in. "Charles, are you mad?" she asked, her voice trembling.

Charles's face was cold, but he didn't lose his temper. He just said calmly, "Let's go home." He didn't kick her out, but his coldness was almost lethal-it felt like his attitude alone could cut right through her. The whole ride home, Charles didn't say a word. Naomi kept sneaking glances at him in the rearview mirror, but his face was completely expressionless, not a hint of a smile anywhere. Naomi glanced away, gazing out the window, and couldn't help but think to herself, 'If Charles really won't marry me, then maybe Jason is the next best thing I've got.
