    Chapter 276 Wandering Heart


    After everything was done, Ranita sat on the couch feeling drained. What was the point of doing all this? She wasn''t an impulsive person, so she


    spent half an hour arranging her things in the suitcase. She felt like crying. but her tears stubbornly refused to fall.


    Ranita called Marlon and asked him about the matter she had previously entrusted to him. "It might take another half a month,” Marlon said after a


    pause. "I''ll urge them for you, but there are many assets involved, so it will still take some time.”


    "Are you feeling better?”


    Ranita appreciated Marlon''s concern.


    "I''m fine," she replied with a grunt.


    "Thank you again for what happenedst time.” she said gratefully.


    Ranita didn''t expect that asking Marlon to follow Turner would eventually save her life at a critical moment; she was truly grateful to him.


    "Don''t be so polite. Miss Bowman." After hearing about Wyatt''s inheritance from Ranita, Marlon paused for a moment before continuing calmly, "Do


    you want me to handle this matter for you?"


    "Yes!" After pausing briefly, Ranita added, "Maybe I need your help in coordinating with Mr. Adams; just let me know what I can do."


    Marlon smiled and replied, "Okay, I''ll help you handle it." Then he asked, "Have you thought about what to do with all that money? As they say,


    ‘hoarding jade brings bad luck.'' If you leave the Stuart family with so much money, the people there probably won''t be happy.”


    Finally, Marlon exined, “Of course, I''m not talking about Mr. Stuart."


    Ranita sighed and was about to speak when the doorbell rang.


    "Mr. Goodman , someone is here. I''ll

    Through the peephole, Ranita saw


    Brendon outside. She felt uneasyas

    the door and ask if she had changed

    "Um, it''s safe," Ranita said perfunctorily, her gaze falling on Brendon’s shoulder where a half-lipstick mark was left on his snow-white shirt


    Ranita''s eyes were burning with pain.


    Brendon probably thought she had an imprable heart that was invincible to any harm


    "Why are you back so early?"


    "Have you tried on the dress?” It wasn''t until he mentioned the dress that she remembered she had to attend the birthday banquet tonight.


    "I''ve already had someone send it over.”


    Ranita pursed her lips and looked around before noticing arge box ced on the dining table. She walked over and opened the lid. revealing a


    serene blue gown inside.


    The shoulders and sleeves were


    made of transparent gauze material,


    while thé light blue color resembled


    a washed- out sky after rain. There


    werealso some beads attached to it


    that reflected light bea utifully.


    "Have you tried it on? Does it fit?” Brendon walked over and reached for her waist but Ranita avoided him and lowered her head saying, "Not yet. I''m


    going to try it now."


    Ranita carried the box into the dressing room feeling lost in fog without knowing which direction to take or what she should do next.


    "What''s wrong?” Just then Brendon came in from behind and hugged her while speaking in a low voice, "Who upset you?”
