    Chapter 4 Difficulty


    Under the bright lights, Shannon looked stunningly beautiful. In person, she was even more


    breathtaking, like a delicate rose in full bloom. She and Brendon made a perfect couple with their


    exceptional looks.


    As Ranita scrutinized Shannon, Shannon also curiously looked at her and tilted her head with a


    smile. Her voice sounded like that of a songbird, "Hello there! You must be Ranita? I''m Shannon. It''s


    nice to meet you."


    Shannon quickly walked over and intimately held Ranita''s hand. "Ranita, I identally spilled coffee


    on my skirt earlier and had to borrow Brendon''s shirt to wear instead. I hope you don''t mind."


    Ranita lowered her eyes and smelled the scent of cedarwood on the white shirt before speaking in


    an indifferent tone, "Miss Murphy, you''re being polite, but men and women have different standards


    of dress code. Besides, Brendon is already married so it''s not quite appropriate for you to wear his


    clothes."


    "Ranita! What rtionship do I have with Brendon? It''s just one piece of clothing! He didn''t say


    anything about it either! You''re so petty!" Shannon pouted while looking at Brendon.


    Brendon frowned slightly, "It really is just one piece of clothing; it doesn''t matter."

    Ranita felt uneasy inside.


    "If you don''t agree that it''s inappropriate, then why ask me if I mind? Since that''s the case, then


    don''t bother asking me anymore," said Ranita coldly as she looked at Shannon with disdainful eyes.


    Shannon felt wronged as she leaned towards Brendon while rubbing her chest against him,


    "Brendon, sorry! Did I make Ranita angry? Maybe I should change back into my skirt so that you


    two won''t fight because of me."


    "No way!" said Brendon as he reached out to pat Shannon on the head gently while speaking softly,


    "Ranita won''t fight with me over something like this. Besides, my clothes are mine to decide who


    wears them. Feel free to keep wearing them!"


    "Thank you so much Brendon! You''re always so good to me! I really like you!" eximed an overly


    sweetened voice from Shannon which made Ranita feel nauseous as if she had swallowed a fly.


    "If Mr Stuart is busy, then I''ll leave first," thought Ranita who couldn''t bear watching this lovey-dovey


    scene any longer.


    In haste, Ranita left but when closing the door, she met Shannon''s gaze which was filled with


    prideful provocation.


    Ranita instantly felt wronged until tears welled up in her eyes.


    At noon, Ranita intended going back home for some rest, but received Amiya Murphy''s call asking


    her go visit Bulgari hotel.


    Amiya was Brendon''s mother.


    She personally called Ranita, and although Ranita didn''t want to go after three years'' concession,


    she didn''t know how to refuse , hence agreed reluctantly.


    On a day that hadn''t yet reached summer, it just rained and the temperature immediately dropped.


    Ranita was wearing a short skirt and her knees felt cold. She wasn''t sure if it was because of the


    cold, but she felt a little difort in her lower abdomen.


    After parking her car, Ranita took a short break before leisurely heading to the private room


    designated by Amiya.


    Ranita knocked on the door and entered. Amiya''sughter immediately stopped, and her eyes


    showed a hint of displeasure upon seeing Ranita.


    Ranita was forcibly given to Brendon by Wyatt, and no one in the Stuart family except for the


    deceased Wyatt had any regard for her.


    "Why sote!" Amiya was very displeased.


    However, Ranita''s attention was drawn to Brendon and Shannon, the handsome couple intimately


    close. Shannon was feeding Brendon grapes by hand, looking like a sweet newlywed couple.


    A heart, as if thrown into a frying pan and repeatedly tormented.


    Brendon didn''t seem to expect her arrival, his dark eyes showing surprise for a moment before


    quickly returning to calmness. His voice was cold as he said, "Have the waiter bring another chair."


    "The position is just right, adding one more chair would be crowded!" Amiya said casually, "Besides,


    Ranita is not a member of the Stuart family anymore. There''s no reason for her to attend the family


    banquet."
