Ranita didn’t need to guess to know that Holly would probably swing her hand after finishing her scolding, and true enough, Holly immediately raised her hand to slap her.
Ranita was prepared and dodged her hand, then turned to Olivia and said, “Call the police.”
“Ranita, how dare you!” Holly was a rich young lady, savage but not very strong, and her delicate hand turned red after being slapped lightly.
“You meddled in Shannon’s relationship with my brother, causing her depression and hospitalization. You really are despicable!”
This was in front of the Gauss Technology building during lunchtime, so there weren’t many people around, but there were still many employees from nearby buildings out for lunch.
Passersby were naturally curious, and when they heard Shannon’s name, they all showed a gossip-filled expression.
“What a big scandal!”
“Oh my god! Shannon looks like that, and someone still managed to snatch her man?”
“Weren’t they engaged for several years? I always thought that if they didn’t get married after so long, the guy must be trash…”
“This woman is quite beautiful, no wonder she could snatch Shannon’s man.”
“Amazing! Do you guys know who this person is?”
…
In an instant, the noisy discussions reached Ranita’s ears, and she frowned and coldly shouted, “Holly, if you keep spouting nonsense, don’t blame me for being impolite!”
“Olivia, let’s go.”
Ranita left with Olivia, but they hadn’t walked a few steps when Holly stopped them. Holly raised her chin and sneered, “Ranita, are you in such a hurry to run away because you’re guilty?”
Ranita couldn’t be bothered with her and took out her phone to make a call.
“What are you doing?” Holly saw her take out her phone. “You want to call the police, huh? Put your phone down…”
Ranita glanced coldly at Holly, and coincidentally, Brendon’s voice came through the phone.
Ranita handed the phone to Holly. “If you have something to say, you can talk to him personally.”
“I… you just wait!” Holly heard Brendon’s voice and got scared, then turned around and ran.
“What happened? Did Holly come looking for you?” Brendon asked with an annoyed tone. Ranita sighed, “It’s nothing! You’re busy! I’ll hang up first.”
Holly ran away, but the people surrounding Ranita didn’t disperse; instead, they stood there like monkeys, their faces full of curiosity.
Each one of them seemed eager to come up and ask her something.
Ranita frowned and said coldly, “Please delete the videos and photos. They were taken without my consent, and if they are posted online or leaked without my authorization, I can pursue legal action. We are all cultured individuals, and I hope you can control your hands. I will also make sure not to bring any legal trouble to you.”
“But if…” There was no need to say the rest; everyone understood.
Ranita raised an eyebrow, ignoring what the bystanders thought, and walked away quickly.
Olivia caught up and gave her a thumbs-up. “Ranita, you were really cool just now!”
