Brendon went back and there was a noise at the door.

"You're back," Ranita snapped out of her reverie. In fact, she wasn't thinking about anything, just daydreaming with an empty mind.

Now she didn't want to think about anything.

She can maintain calmness, having exhausted all her patience and courage.

"Um..." Brendon sat down beside her and lightly squeezed her hand. "I don't know if Shannon will come, sorry."

Ranita was smiling with her eyes curved.

Only, eyes and smile were all cold.

"She gave you the watch." Ranita shook off his hand, took out the watch from the box and helped Brendon put it on. "Let's go."

On the way, Ranita kept staring out of the car window in a daze.

"Ranita, what are you looking at?" Brendon curiously leaned over and wrapped his arm around her shoulder, the sudden intimacy making Ranita's body stiffen a bit.

"I didn't see much," Ranita paused and explained, "I've been busy these past few years and haven't had a chance to really look at Kurima. I didn't realize so many tall buildings had been built without me noticing."

Before, she could only see Brendon in her eyes and didn't pay attention to anything else outside.

"Yeah! It changes every year... That's the Stuart's Corp building, can you see it?" Brendon pointed to one of the buildings in a row, with the Stuart's Corp sign particularly prominent.

Stuart's Corp had grown significantly under Brendon's leadership since it was handed over from Wyatt. Brendon had a good eye and precise investment strategies, which had contributed to the current success of Stuart's Corp.

"I see," Ranita nodded, trying to avoid Brendon, but he held onto her waist. He leaned in closer and his lips brushed against her ear, "Why have you been avoiding me?"

"No..."

"Still denying it?" Brendon's arm exerted more force, causing her slender waist to ache and the formal dress to become wrinkled.

Ranita was forced to lean against him, with the warm breath of his breathing filling her ears.
