Ranita was also feeling uneasy.


    Back then, she had been falsely used by Shannon of causing her miscarriage. Now that the truth had finallye to light, Ranita felt relieved. However, she also felt a touch of sadness.


    If she had known the truth earlier, would she have bravely stayed by Brendon’s side? Would they have ended up separating like this?


    Unfortunately, time couldn’t be turned back.


    The harm caused by Shannon wouldn’t simply disappear.


    “Shannon, let’s go! Don’t disturb Ranita here,” Brendon said, ncing at Ranita before nodding at her and turning to leave.


    Ranita wasn’t an unreasonable person. Moreover, she couldn’t interfere in matters between Brendon and Shannon.


    As Brendon left, Shannon stumbled and rushed after him. Even when the door closed, Ranita could still hear Shannon’s choked and miserable cries for Brendon.


    Brendon walked away quickly.


    “Brendon, wait for me! Please wait for me…” Shannon’s mind raced as she desperately tried to think of a way. She had truly been careless!


    But the deed had been done, and regretting it now wouldn’t help! The most crucial thing was to exin everything clearly to Brendon and appease him.


    Brendon got into the car, and Shannon hurriedly followed. She looked at the man with innocent eyes and pleaded, “Brendon, can you listen to my exnation?”


    “No need to exin to me. I already know everything,” he replied coldly.


    “No, no, no! Brendon, you can’t just sentence me to death based on a few words… You know how I feel about you, and I know I was wrong. I truly know I was wrong. Can you forgive me this once, like before?”


    Seeing her still trying to defend herself, not mentioning the harm she had caused Ranita, Brendon’s expression turned icy.


    “Shannon, I went to your cousin Carlee’s house earlier. She told me everything…”


    Shannon was thunderstruck.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    If Brendon had already met Carlee, then there was no room for redemption in this matter.


    “Brendon… I really didn’t mean it…” Brendon ignored her and coldly said, “It’s gettingte. You should go back.”


    Brendon left indifferently.


    Ranita had a restless night. In fact, she barely slept at all. She wanted to call Brendon and ask, but she didn’t know what to say when she picked up the phone.


    In the end, she endured the night.


    “Mommy, why aren’t you getting up yet?” Ayaan softly kissed her and said, “Mommy, wake up. I’m hungry.”


    Ranita got up, her eyes resembling a panda’s, making Ayaan giggle.


    “Mommy, I think I saw Daddyst night. Where’s Daddy?”


    At the mention of Brendon, Ranita sighed, “Daddy has something to do. We won’t disturb him.”


    “Oh, right. I’ll video call Grandmater. Remember to talk to Grandma properly, and alsofort Uncle. They’re angry right now.”


    Ayaan immediately asked with concern, “Will they spank me?”


    “They won’t, but I will!” With that, Ranita grabbed Ayaan and yfully spanked his little bottom. “It was tootest night, so I couldn’t bear to spank you. Tell me, why did you go with Holly? Aren’t you afraid of never seeing me and Uncle again?”


    The little one looked aggrieved but also knew he had done wrong.


    “She said she would take me to Kurima to find Daddy, and I thought you were here, so I came!” He paused. “Besides, you said she’s my aunt, right? She shouldn’t sell me.”


    Ayaan blinked his adorable big eyes and confidently added, “And I have a watch. If there’s danger, I’ll call you.”
