A Successful Career After Divorce

Ranita was furious!

After several attempts, she looked at Brendon in despair and surrendered, “I can’t unzip it.”

Brendon found her clumsiness and helplessness adorable, a stark contrast to her usual self.

Unable to contain his laughter, Brendon said, “Let me do it then!”

“Brendon… you’re making fun of me…” Ranita’s voice was weak and half-pouting, making someone’s heart itch.

“No!” His voice was deep, but his fingers swiftly helped her unzip the dress…

Brendon glanced a few times, his gaze burning and direct.

Ranita’s already soft body became even softer and warmer under his gaze. She glared at Brendon playfully and said, “Stop looking.”

She reached out and tried to secure the bathrobe around her, but lacking strength, she couldn’t arrange it properly. It hung loosely on her.

Revealing her pale collarbone and slender neck.

“Lie down, I’ll go check if the doctor is here!” Brendon’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he found an excuse to go to the bathroom and wash his face.

Ranita was as soft as a gummy candy, and he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to control himself.

Suddenly, Brendon ran off.

Ranita was still stunned when she heard the sound of running water from the bathroom. It took her a while to regain her senses, her cheeks flushed, and her ears burning.

What a jerk!

Not long after, the doctor Brendon had called arrived. He was a middle-aged man with glasses and a friendly demeanor.

After examining Ranita and taking a small blood sample to determine the cause, he left.

According to the doctor’s speculation, Ranita’s sudden condition might have been caused by accidentally ingesting some medication that affected her heart rate.

The specific details would only be known after the blood test results came back.

After Brendon saw the doctor off, he began unbuttoning his shirt in front of Ranita. The collar of his shirt shimmered with golden light under the orange glow, revealing a glimpse of his tanned chest.

Ranita lay on the bed, initially lazy and lethargic. But seeing him like this suddenly made her alert. She didn’t want to look, but she couldn’t help but open her eyes and steal a glance.

“Ranita…”

Suddenly, Brendon raised his hand and threw his shirt onto the sofa. Half-naked, he walked towards her…

“Do you… need something?” Ranita grabbed the blanket and hid her little face inside. She looked at him with anticipation. Her mind, which was already unable to turn, became even more empty. She didn’t even know what she had said.

“Are you still feeling dizzy? Shall I take you for a bath before you sleep?”

“No need…” Ranita wanted to refuse, but before she could finish her sentence, Brendon bent down and forcefully carried her up. He didn’t give her a chance to refuse as he walked towards the bathroom.

In front of her was a strong chest.

Ranita not only felt dizzy but also felt her head heating up.

Her throat became dry as well.

Ranita’s mind was in chaos. She tried hard to calm herself down and not do anything foolish…

“I’ll do it myself… let me down!” Ranita struggled, thinking that Brendon wouldn’t actually comply, but the man did let her down.

“Can you manage on your own?”

“I can…” Before Ranita could finish her sentence, her legs gave way, and she collapsed onto Brendon as if she had no bones.

Brendon reached out and scooped her up into his arms.

Her hand touched something delicate, making her face flush even more, and she couldn’t speak for a long time.

Meanwhile, Brendon kept chuckling softly in her ear, “Stop pretending! I’ll help you!”
