Chapter 102 Losing Out


    Chapter 102 Losing Out


    "Ahh! How dare you hit me, Ranita!" After a moment of eerie silence, Holly screamed like a pig


    being ughtered in rage.


    Holding onto her throbbing cheek with both hands, she red at Ranita with bloodshot eyes while


    looking disheveled and terrifyingly twisted in appearance.


    "Do you think it''s okay for you to mess with me?" With cold eyes fixed on Holly''s face, Ranita


    continued speaking, "You poured water all over me which damaged my reputation. I pped your


    face once so I still lost out here."


    "Ranita! You''re dead meat!" Grinding her teeth together tightly while pointing at two bodyguards


    beside her, Holly saidmandingly, "Grab this woman for me and throw her into toilet bowl right


    now!"

    The two guards hesitated for a moment before walking towards Rantia without daring to disobey


    their boss'' orders.


    "I advise againsting any closer if I were you guys," warned Rantia calmly as she looked directly


    into their eyes before turning back towards Holly again, "Holly, if this matter gets blown up big time


    then it won''t be good news just for me."


    "After all," Rantia added coldly while staring straight into Holly''s eyes again, "I don''t have your family


    background or connections in Kurima; if this incident goes public then everyone willugh at you


    discussing about how foolish you are."


    "And of course," Rantia continued speaking slowly yet confidently while raising an eyebrow slightly


    higher than usual, "If that doesn''t satisfy your ego enough, then we can always go visit our local


    police station where I''ll admit my mistake by payingpensation money or whatever penalty is


    required byw... but are you willing enough to apologize publicly right there?"


    Ranita''s words struck Holly. However, she still retorted, "Haha! I''ll smash the surveince cameras


    later! Who needs to apologize to you? Come on, try it!"


    Just then, there was a knocking on the door from outside, and a voice said, "We are from the local


    police station. Please open the door."


    Ranita raised an eyebrow and said, "Sorry, folks, the police have arrived!"


    The police arrived, and Holly had to hold back her anger! The ce was a mess, but at least no one


    got hurt. A ssh of water and a p in the face settled things.


    This dy caused them to miss lunchtime.


    Olivia took Ranita home and made some food before parting ways. Ranita reminded her, "Don''t go


    back to the studio for the next few days. Pack up your things and work from home. Call me if you


    need anything."


    "Okay..." Olivia nodded but couldn''t help asking, "Ranita, that studio is your pride and joy. Are you


    really just going to give it up like this?"


    Ranita didn''t want to let it go either, but with Holly stirring up trouble like this, there was no way the


    studio could operate smoothly anymore. It was better to start over from scratch.


    "It''s just something we have to do! Don''t worry about it!" After seeing Olivia off, Ranita contacted


    Marlon and hired him as an agent to help with dissolving their partnership.


    After dealing with that matter, Ranita drove straight to the hospital to see Steve.


    "I thought you wouldn''te so soon!" Steve had scheduled his day off today but made ns with


    Ranita beforehand so he came in the afternoon instead. "Are you feeling better today? You look a


    little pale."


    Could she feel better after getting drenched by Holly''s bucket of ice water? Luckily it was warmer


    now; otherwise she would''ve caught a cold!


    "Achoo!" Just as she wanted to shake her head no, she sneezed instead; her nose felt itchy too.


    "I''m okay! Just tired I guess... Maybe I didn''t sleep wellst night." She smiled at Steve while her


    eyes curved into crescents along with sparkling pupils - lively and brightening everything around


    them.


    Steve''s heart skipped a beat or two due such beauty radiating from within her eyes...


    "As long as you''re okay." Steve turned his head slightly while speaking softly, "Being pregnant can


    make one feel exhausted easily; eat more nutritious food and rest early when possible... Don''t


    overwork yourself either."


    "Oh yeah..." Pausing for a moment, he handed over some papers, "I drew your blood yesterday for


    testing purposes. Here are the results. It shows trace amounts of banned stimnts which won''t


    affect your body once metabolizedpletely."
