"Ring, ring!" Brendon's phone rang again.
Brendon pursed his lips and finally answered the call. Ranita took the initiative to retreat to the lounge, closing the door behind her. She saw Brendon frowning with a not-so-good expression.
"Mom... since everything has already been decided, there's no need to talk about it anymore!" Brendon rubbed his forehead and spoke coldly to Amiya who was very emotional, "You shouldn't be too agitated."
"Brendon! Do you even care about me as your mother? You suddenly decided not to divorce, have you ever thought about my feelings? You know I don't like Ranita." Amiya's tone was very cold. "Do you want me to end up in the hospital because of anger?"
Faced with questioning, Brendon frowned even tighter.
"I think it's better if you stay out of my relationship with Ranita," Brendon said in a low voice.
"Brendon!" Amiya knew that Ranita was a sly fox. Over the years, Brendon had been very filial towards her but now he was defying her for Ranita.
"Mom, is there anything else?"
"Brendon, if you don't care about me then what about Shannon? What are you going to do with her? How are you going explain this situation to the Murphy family?" Mentioning Shannon made Brenden feel more annoyed than ever before.
"I will handle things between Shannon and myself. Don't worry," Brenden hung up the phone and loosened his tie while exhaling deeply.
In the lounge room, Ranita also returned a call on her phone to Dylan.
The atmosphere on their way home was quite tense.
"There isn't anything wrong at Boulderland Mansion, right?" As soon as they arrived home, Ranita spoke first. Brenden held onto her hand, pulled her closer and hugged her tightly. He said, "There isn't anything wrong, don't worry."
