Shannon deceived him, but Brendon still felt differently about her.


    After all, they had many years of feelings between them.


    Ranita pursed her lips and said with a slight tilt of her head, “If you’re worried, just go. It’s almost dawn anyway, and nothing will happen here.”


    Ranita knew Shannon’s act very well.


    It was so clever of her to faint in front of the public, maintaining her image and making everything seem unrted and innocent…


    Brendon remained silent.


    Suddenly, Ranita’s heart started beating faster. She gathered her courage and looked at the man, listening to Brendon saying, “Ranita, I divorced Shannon and we’ve set clear boundaries. But we grew up together, and the Murphy family and the Stuart family are old friends. We can’tpletely avoid seeing each other. Besides…”


    “Shannon saved my life.”


    Ranita looked at him, “Really?”


    After a pause, Ranita’s throat felt dry and bitter. She understood and said, “I understand what you mean.”


    “Then you should still go check on her! After all, she’s a friend. If something really happens to her, you’ll be worried.”


    After saying this, Ranita turned and went back to her room.


    She wasn’t anyone to Brendon, so she had no right to stop him.


    “Ranita!” There was a knock on the door. Just as he was about to say something, the phone rang, and then he continued knocking, “Ranita, I just received a call saying that the address here has been leaked, and many media outlets areing to surround you.”Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.


    “What?” Ranita opened the door, “I’ll go call Ayaan.”


    Luckily it was summer. Ranita quickly packed some things and hurried out. But as soon as she reached the parking lot, she heard amotion, apanied by security trying to hold back the crowd, but there were too many people rushing in.


    “Ranita, over here!” Brendon held Ayaan in one hand and pulled her around a few cars to a Bentley, “Get in.”


    Perhaps hearing themotion, someone shouted loudly, “Where are they? I saw them, they’re really together… oh my god… hurry over…”


    Ranita didn’t care anymore and quickly got into the car.


    Brendon acted swiftly, stepped on the gas, and drove out. His car was easy to start, and coupled with the fact that these reporters weren’t familiar with the underground parking lot, they couldn’t catch up at all.


    At the exit, there were also people waiting, but Brendon cleverly put on his sunsses and swiftly passed by. By the time the reporters reacted, they only got a mouthful of exhaust fumes.


    But Ranita hadn’t rxed yet when she noticed a car following them. Brendon had no choice but to drive directly to Bouldend Mansion.


    Bouldend Mansion was vast and had dedicated security.


    Although it was safe, Ranita really didn’t want toe. She held Ayaan and hesitated whether to get out of the car. Then she heard Holly’s voice outside, “Brendon, you finally came back!”


    “I called you, why didn’t you answer? Do you know…”


    The voice abruptly stopped.


    Ranita saw Holly ring angrily at her, “Ranita? And this bastard, what are they doing here?”


    “Holly!” Brendon gave her a cold look, “Mind your words.”


    “I…” Holly stomped her foot in anger, “You bring Ranita back here and I can’t even say anything? What face does she have toe back here?”


    Brendon reached out and picked up the drowsy Ayaan, his imposing figure making Holly like a startled groundhog, unable to make a sound.


    “So noisy!” Brendon turned back and nced at Holly again, and immediately she dared not speak. Ranita enjoyed the scene, only to see Holly making an indecent gesture towards her.
