If the railing behind her had been a bit lower, she might have fallen off the rooftop and been seriously injured. Before she could catch her breath, Brendan had said coldly, "Naomi, you should tellwhat's on your mind. There's no need to beat around the bush." Naomi couldn't help but laugh.

You're from the Ludwig family! Everyone in Ashburgh is dying to be your friend!" After that, Naomi pushed with all her might and finally shoved Brendan away. When she turned back to Brendan, she could see the anger burning within his eyes.
Their eyes met. Thinking of how he treated her earlier, Naomi added, "Brendan, do you think you can get to where you are today without your family? "Who do you think you are? And who are you to make the people of Ashburgh be at your beck and call? Who are you to act all high and mighty?
