Chapter 112 Playing Tricks On People
Ranita didn’t want to cause any trouble, so she diligently accompanied the guests throughout the evening. When the celebration finally ended, she even thoughtfully escorted them to their cars.
Finally, she could go home and rest!
Ranita was quite happy. With the conclusion of the auction project, her workload at Stuart’s Corp had decreased. Less work meant she wouldn’t have to make constant trips to Stuart’s Corp.
“Phew!” Ranita breathed a sigh of relief, but then suddenly noticed Holly staring at her from not too far away.
Ranita tried to avoid her, but Holly reached out and stopped her.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“Ranita!”
“What is it, Miss Stuart?” Ranita wasn’t afraid of confrontation, but she was scared of someone as crazy as Holly! She kept her distance and watched Holly warily.
“Why are you so afraid? I’m not going to eat you,” said Holly with a light laugh. “You really have thick skin, Ranita. You’re wearing fake clothes! Do you know how those rich ladies make fun of you?”
“I don’t want to know! Miss Stuart, you don’t need to waste your breath telling me either. I don’t have time for this,” said Ranita as she paused briefly before walking away without looking back.
“Stop!” Being ignored made Holly angry in an instant. She stepped forward and blocked Ranita’s path again. “Today you followed Mrs. Cather like a coward all day long so I couldn’t find an opportunity to deal with you myself. But do you think your luck will always be this good?”
“I forbid you from bothering my brother! Are you trying to seduce Chris? What kind of delusion are you living in? Do you think Chris would ever look twice at a second-hand pair of shoes like yourself?”
When mentioning Chris, Holly became even more excited; gritting her teeth as if wanting nothing more than tearing Ranita apart alive while speaking sharply, “I warn you that if you dare try anything with my brother again like some fox spirit then see how I’ll deal with it.”
While it was clear where things stood between Brendon and herself, Ranitia had no idea what made them think there was something going on between herself and Chris; they were just making baseless accusations against her!
“Holly, you know what they say about people who are dirty-minded – everything looks dirty in their eyes. I am completely innocent when it comes Mr. Webster. So please stop spreading rumors.” It annoyed Rantia greatly that Hollly kept pestering her.
“And also, Miss Stuart, I am getting tired of your constant warnings. Please leave me alone.”
Holly couldn’t handle being provoked any longer. She looked like an enraged lion ready pounce. Rantia glanced behind Holley calling out, “Mr. Webster!” Was Chris here?
Holly widened her eyes visibly panicked before turning around. Her face turned red when she realized there wasn’t anyone behind them after all…
Holly was stunned for a moment before realizing she had been played. She gritted her teeth in anger and said, “Ranita! How dare you deceive me… I…”
In just a few moments, Ranita had already taken several steps outside. She didn’t want to use Chris to deceive Holly, but she couldn’t help feeling angry.
However, as soon as Ranita turned the corner, she ran into Brendon and Shannon walking together. Shannon said something that made Brendon smile with amusement – he looked like a shining star.
Ranita wanted to avoid them but Shannon spotted her and rushed over like a butterfly catching hold of her skirt hem. “Ranita! You haven’t gone back yet? That’s great! Brendon and I are planning to have a drink later. Do you want to come along?”
Before Ranita could answer, Brendon spoke up first, “She shouldn’t go; it’s inconvenient in that dress.”
Suddenly, it felt like something stabbed at Ranita’s heart.
