Chapter 191 Gentleness
"It doesn''t matter anymore. I''ve already asked mywyer to handle it... I''m tired now. I''m going to
take a shower." Ranita didn''t want to continue talking about Shannon so she found an excuse to
end the conversation.
"That''s fine! Let me run some water for you so you can rx in a bath."
For a moment, Ranita was stunned.
When did Brendon be so gentle? And why was he helping with running bathwater for her? She
bit down on her lip but couldn''t help feeling happy inside at his kindnesspared with before when
he wasn''t as caring towards her feelings.
Her tone softened slightly, "I''ll just wash up quickly. I don''t want to soak in the tub. You go ahead
and deal with your work."
Brendon came over here specifically for business matters after all; he was indeed busy.
After finishing up in the shower, Ranita saw that Brendon was still working in his study room so she
made him a cup of coffee before bringing it over, "Are you still not done yet?"
"It''ll take a bit more time! Thanks!" Brendon took the coffee, had a sip, and frowned.
Ranita quickly exined, "It''s fine. I didn''t bring you coffee; it''s from the hotel. Maybe the taste isn''t
that great."
"No problem! You''re tired, go rest. I''ll sleepter," Brendon said.
Ranita nodded.
She felt a bit surreal, as if they were back in the past. Ranitay on the bed and chatted with Eve,
"Eve, how''s your health?"
"Better! Just ufortable lying down every day," Eve replied almost instantly, probably bored. "If
you weren''t carrying a golden treasure, I would definitely be cursing you right now. With such a big
thing happening online, and you didn''t let me help you!"
Ranita smiled.
"It''s not that I didn''t let you help. You''re also in that circle. If this incident dragged you into trouble, it
might bring negative publicity to you." Pausing, Ranita sent her a pleading emoji, "I know you mean
well, but I also want what''s best for you!"
"Besides, I won''t let anyone bully me!"
Eve was feeling frustrated. She had just been surfing the inte and things were even worse than
before. First, Shannon deleted her new post, then Paityn did the same.
Deleting it only made things worse as it sparked a new wave ofments iming that Ranita was
guilty and had found someone to back her up, forcing Shannon and Paityn to delete their posts.
Eve was so angry she wanted to confront those people on Twitter but her agent held her back.
Instead, she used a fake ount to battle with them online. However, Eve didn''t want to bother
Ranita with these issues.
"If anyone bullies you again, I won''t let them get away with it!" Eve promised.

"Well then don''t go online for a while," Ranita replied sleepily. "There''s always something happening
on the inte but in a few days this will all blow over."
After chatting for a while longer, Ranita fell asleep in a daze. She wasn''t sure how long she slept
when suddenly her phone rang loudly next to her ear.
"Hello?" she answered groggily.
"Miss Bowman? This is Caleb," came the voice from the other end of the line.
"Caleb?" Ranita squinted at her phone screen. "What''s up?"
Caleb remained silent for several seconds before finally saying slowly, "Miss Bowman... this is Mr.
Stuart''s phone."
Ranita felt embarrassed as she realized that he was right – it wasn''t even her own phone!
She sat up slightly and saw lighting from under the bathroom door – Brendon must have left
his phone on their nightstand after finishing work earlier that day.
"It''s okay," she apologized sheepishly into Caleb''s earpiece. "I''ll call Brendon over here."
It was already 2am – definitely toote!
"... Or maybe I can pass along your message instead."
Caleb paused before saying, "This matter is also rted to you, Miss Bowman, and it''s okay if you
know. I''ve contacted friends on Stnd''s side regarding that ES blue velvet dress, but no one
knows the specific details, so it''s impossible to purchase it."
