Ranita didn't really want to see Amiya. Every time they met, she would make snide remarks and she didn't want to make things difficult for Brendon.
"... Brendon, why don't I hide here for a bit?"
"No need. I want to clear things up with my mom," Brendon paused and looked back at her, "If you don't want to live in Boulderland Mansion anymore, you can stay in the apartment."
Ranita's heart was instantly touched.
Amiya sat in her wheelchair with a man wearing a white suit standing beside her. Ranita had seen him before. It was Elliot Adams who used to work for Wyatt before he passed away.
She greeted them both, "Mrs. Stuart, Mr. Adams."
Amiya saw her and her face immediately turned dark.
"Why is she still here?" Amiya sneered at Brendon, "I have important matters to discuss with you that shouldn't be heard by outsiders. Ask her to leave."
Elliot smiled faintly showing wrinkles on his face, "Mrs. Stuart, Ms. Bowman is also involved in this matter so she has the right to stay."
Amiya's face grew even darker.
"Mr. Adams, don't forget who pays your salary. You better not be ungrateful!"
Elliot had always been Wyatt's lawyer but because Wyatt wasn't close with Amiya, she held some resentment towards Elliot as well.
"I have always worked under Mr. Wyatt Stuart's employment so naturally I am working for him. And as a lawyer, I will fulfill my duties," replied Elliot nonchalantly.
