The Divorcee Who Shines novel Chapter 144

Chapter 144 Seduction

Ranita felt uneasy.

She feared that she wouldn't have an answer if Brendon questioned her again.

"You..." The door opened, and Dylan's handsome face appeared. His eyes curved into a smile as he greeted her, "It's me, Rani! Let me in! I'm exhausted!"

"How come you're here?" Her emotions were complicated. After letting out a sigh of relief, she felt disappointed again. She felt cheap and pathetic.

Ranita kept her eyes downcast, daring not look at Dylan directly.

"Eve is worried about you, and so am I. So we decided to get her that I should come over and keep an eye on you!" Dylan chuckled twice, having a good mood. "Tomorrow, I'll take you to Moon Mountain. There's a reservoir up there. The view is quite beautiful."

For peace and solitude, Ranita stayed alone in a detached villa. There were extra rooms available for Dylan too.

Ranita avoided Brendon, not wanting to let herself get lost in thought. But who would have thought that she would be thinking about him all night long? She missed his warm embrace and the comforting feeling of his breath on her skin.

Boulderland Mansion.

Shannon brought a cup of coffee into the study. "Brendon, why aren't you resting yet? You need to take care of yourself even when you're busy with work," Shannon said softly as she leaned over towards Brendon's side.

"I made this hand-ground coffee for you, Brendon. Try it."

She was wearing a white off-the-shoulder pajama set with delicate straps revealing her slender shoulders. The edges were lined with lace and the pants were short, showing off her long and slim legs. She even sprayed some perfume on herself to add an extra touch of allure.

The scent wafted over to Brendon, causing him to slightly furrow his brows. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw one strap on Shannon's shoulder suddenly snap off and part of her white pajamas slipped down.
