Chapter 56 Lemon Candy
"Holly, watch your words!" Ranita''s face was cold and her eyes were sharp as she looked at Holly.
"False usations can lead to legal consequences!"
"Heh, you''re just a trantor. You talk about legal consequences like you''re some big judge!" Holly
sneered with contempt in her eyes. "You should take a look at yourself first."
Ranita knew that dealing with Shannon alone was already difficult enough, but now with Holly
added to the mix, it was going to be even harder for her today.
"Heh heh, Miss Stuart, you talk about being qualified or not. Are you a big judge?" Ranita retorted
calmly.
Holly was immediately provoked by this and said angrily, "Ranita, who do you think is unqualified?
Do you want to die?"
"Threats and intimidation alsoe with responsibilities!" Pausing for a moment, Ranita''s gaze
shifted towards Shannon. The corners of her lips curved into a teasing smile. "Miss Murphy, it''s
gettingte. Do we really need to waste time here? Otherwise, I can trante it for Mr. Semeraro
right away."
"Ranita! You''re joking! You know that Holly has an impulsive personality and didn''t mean what she
said." Shannon pulled Holly back while blinking innocently at them both, "Holly, maybe keep quiet
for now."
Shannon sized up Ranita from head to toe while thetter wore slightly heavier makeup than before
- white shirt paired with jeans and t shoes - making her look intellectual without any ws.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.
But Shannon had no intention of doing anything today anyway.
After all, yesterday had been enough trouble for Ranita! So Shannon felt very good today, "Mr.
Semeraro is waiting inside already! Let''s try our best to finish our work early today!"
Arthur saw Ranita looking great and gave her an enthusiastic hug, "Miss Bowman, you look
amazing today!"
"Thank you!" With excellent bone structure, Ranita was made more handsome by heavy makeup.
Her eyes were raised upwards, quite charismatic.
"I modified the song yesterday. Take a listen together with Miss Murphy!" Arthur proudly showed off
his talent.
While tranting in between them, Ranita remained expressionless and focused on doing her job
well.
Shannon may not be the best person, but it cannot be denied that she had a natural talent for
music, particrly in ying the cello.
Arthur greatly admired Shannon, and their conversation had tired Ranita so much.
During a break, Ranita went to the pantry to get some water when she heard Hollyining,
"Why did you stop me earlier, Shannon? I finally have a chance to show her what''s what!"
"Holly, calm down!" Shannon tried to soothe Holly, but then said something that made Ranita''s heart
skip a beat.
In a soft and yful tone of voice, Shannon said with a hint of nonchnce, "You already took care
of Mia. You''ll have plenty of opportunities to mess with herter."
"Not today though! Mr. Semeraro is here."
Took care of Mia? What did that mean? Ranita pursed her lips as she thought about how Mia didn''t
show up yesterday and wasn''t answering calls today...
Ranita had an uneasy feeling in her gut but before she could think further about it, nausea hit hard
and fast. She rushed into the bathroom trying not make any noise because it was still on Shannon''s
turf.
She held back vomit while tears streamed down from the corners of eyes due to physical
diforts making even thinking difficult.
Suddenly, Ranita felt a colorful candy in her pocket.
It was given to her by Steve.
Ranita unwrapped the candy, revealing a round and fragrant lemon-vored treat. It instantly lifted
her spirits.
Dr. Pearson was quite thoughtful indeed.
