“Were you just in Brendon’s room?” Brendon wasn’t here, and she didn’t bother hiding it. Her face turned pale, and her gaze at Ranita became fierce, as if she wanted to devour her.
Ranita raised an eyebrow, neither admitting nor denying it. But her attitude was equivalent to an admission. Shannon’s anger surged, and she stopped pretending. She got up from the ground and grabbed the nearby bathrobe, speaking in an annoyed tone, “Ranita, what were you doing in my fiancé’s room so late at night?”
“Are you trying to interfere between Brendon and me?”
Ranita looked at Shannon’s clueless expression and pouted, “Miss Murphy, you’re quite impressive. Rolling around on the floor half-naked for so long without minding the discomfort.”
“Speaking of which, I learned from you too! Back then, during the middle of the night, you didn’t sleep and went to my husband’s room. At that time, you must have wanted to interfere in my marriage with Brendon, right?”
Back then, Shannon would cry softly and claim innocence, saying she wouldn’t get involved, blah blah blah…
Shannon’s eyes flashed with fierceness upon hearing that, but she quickly regained her composure and put on a gentle expression, “Ranita, you misunderstood me! I never thought…”
“Well, you misunderstood me too.” Ranita interrupted her, “You seem fine, so everyone can rest assured!”
“Why are you so careless? If something unexpected happened while you were lying there, you would be in trouble. Really, you keep calling for Brendon without being clear, and it sounds so awkward to me.” Ranita imitated Shannon’s sarcastic tone, which made Shannon’s face turn pale.
“You’ve been lying on the floor for so long, and the air conditioning is so cold. Is there anything uncomfortable? Do you need me to call a doctor for you?”
“Ranita, that’s enough!” Shannon couldn’t help but lose her temper. “Don’t pretend to be concerned with me here. Did you stop Brendon from coming? He’s my future husband, and you’re meddling unnecessarily.”
Ranita remained expressionless and unaffected, saying, “It’s everyone’s duty to help out in a time of need.”
“You!” Shannon fumed, her anger rising. She had been lying there for so long, feeling cold and ignored by Brendon. And now, she saw the person she hated the most!
Shannon stared at Ranita like a pair of sharp knives, “Ranita, you’re really sharp-tongued!”
“Thank you for coming to help! Later on, Brendon and I will definitely thank you personally and treat you to a meal!” An arrogant smile flashed across Shannon’s face. “Ranita, do you really think that coming here once can stop anything?”
Just one sentence, and it pierced Ranita deeply.
“Ranita, Brendon and I are now officially engaged. We will get married sooner or later and sleep together.”
“So, today’s incident doesn’t really matter.”
Ranita’s lips curled up, mockingly saying, “Since it doesn’t matter, did you find it amusing to lie half-naked for so long?”
“What a sacrifice!”
As she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. Brendon asked, “Ranita, are you okay?”
Upon hearing the voice, Shannon’s eyes immediately lit up. She quickly opened the door and rushed towards Brendon, her voice sweet and coquettish, “Brendon, why did you take so long to come!”
Brendon couldn’t retreat in time and looked at Ranita with panic in his eyes, then he was engulfed by the sickly sweet scent of perfume rushing towards him.
