A Successful Career After Divorce

Eve gave Dylan a signal with her eyes.

Dylan immediately spoke up, “Ranita, the nurse said you’ve donated 400 milliliters of blood and you might feel tired for a while. You need to rest and take care of yourself. If there’s any update, I’ll let you know right away.”

Just then, Chris arrived.

“Ranita, are you feeling better?” Chris and Caleb had been dealing with the online harasser and only now had the time to come over.

“I’m fine,” Ranita forced a smile. “How’s everything on your end?”

“I came here to tell you the details. The person who harmed you and Brendon is Aldo Mays. He admitted to harassing you recently and sending threatening items to you.”

Upon hearing this, Ranita pursed her lips and asked, “Is he Shannon’s fan?”

Chris nodded. “Yes, he’s an extreme fan of Shannon. He has been in trouble before for harassing Shannon.”

Ranita thought Aldo seemed a bit mentally unstable and furrowed her brows. “Could he be mentally ill?”

“You’re right! His family provided a psychiatric diagnosis,” Chris paused and sighed. “So the situation is quite difficult now.”

Ranita clenched her teeth, feeling frustrated.

If the other party had a mental illness, it would be very unfavorable for their side.

“Aldo’s lawyer will try to find a way. Just focus on resting,” Chris said to Dylan, “Dylan, why don’t you take your girlfriend out for a while? I need to talk to Ranita.”

Dylan was not happy. “Why can’t Eve and I hear it?”

Chris gave Dylan a look, and Dylan reluctantly took Eve outside, complaining at the door, “He’s not even close to Ranita, why does he have secrets?”

Eve punched him. “Coward!”

“Are you listening?” Dylan hooked his finger and then secretly opened the door a little, putting his ear close to eavesdrop.

“I heard from Mr. Goodman. How could you be so reckless! If it weren’t for Brendon, it could have been you lying in the emergency room!” Chris’s voice became louder and more serious. “No, if it were you, you might not even have a chance to make it to the emergency room.”

Ranita sighed, feeling regretful.

“I’m sorry.” Ranita’s eyes turned red. “I didn’t expect Brendon to get hurt because of me. I know I was impulsive, but Aldo has threatened and harassed me multiple times. I couldn’t just sit back and do nothing.”

“I actually had people prepared, but we were suddenly surrounded by reporters. There were more people on-site, which gave Aldo an opportunity.”

According to Ranita’s plan, she shouldn’t have gone downstairs at that time or been surrounded by reporters.

“But now it’s too late for all that. It’s my fault that Brendon got hurt.” Ranita felt guilty and self-blaming.

“Ranita, what’s done is done. Don’t think too much about it.”

Just then, Chris’s phone rang.

After reading the message, he stood up and said, “The surgery is over. Brendon is currently stable, and he has been taken to the intensive care unit.”

“Do you want to go see him?”This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Of course she wanted to.

Without hesitation, Ranita got out of bed and went with Chris to the ICU. However, before she could get close, she was stopped by Amiya’s people.

“Please step aside. I need to go in,” Ranita was anxious, but she still felt dizzy and spoke with weak breath.

The bodyguard was firm in his attitude. “Miss Bowman, I’m sorry. Madam has instructed that no unauthorized individuals are allowed near Mr. Stuart’s room.”
