Who’s the Dog Now? novel Chapter 152

Perhaps he was a lonely person, too.

They could find some comfort in each other's company.

"How so?"

As she expected, Lennon didn't find her comment strange and played along.

Naomi explained, "The good part is that whenever I'm in trouble, you're always there to help. You're like a hero from a TV show, swooping in at the perfect moment to save me. I'm so grateful. I don't know what I would've done without you."

Lennon didn't take the credit. "It was nothing," he said lightly.

Naomi smiled at him. "It may have been nothing to you, but it meant the world to me."

"I'll work hard to repay you!"

Lennon's lips twitched, but he said nothing.

Naomi continued, "The bad part is that every time you see me, I'm a complete mess. It's so embarrassing."

Lennon raised an eyebrow, about to speak, but Naomi cut him off. "Looks like I'll just have to hang around you more often so you can replace all those bad impressions with good ones."

Lennon silently swallowed the words he was about to say.

A slow smile spread across his face.

Naomi wasn't naturally talkative, but as they exchanged a few words here and there, a real conversation began to flow between them.

It was only through talking that Naomi realized what an insightful person Lennon was.

He could get to the heart of a matter with just a few concise words, which made conversing with him incredibly comfortable.

He also wasn't the type to dominate the conversation. He knew when to listen, making him an excellent conversation partner.

They arrived at the studio all too quickly, and as Naomi got out of the car, she felt a little disappointed that their talk was over.

"So, we'll talk again next time?"

The moment the words left her mouth, she regretted them.

Her relationship with Lennon wasn't quite at that stage yet. Asking something so forward would surely make things awkward for him, putting him in a difficult position whether he said yes or no.
