A Successful Career After Divorce

“What do you mean by sneaking a drink?!”

“I didn’t…” Ranita immediately denied it, forgetting what she had just said, and her ears turned red with embarrassment when she realized.

Brendon straightened her up, his dark eyes staring at her cheeks. “Why do you get shy so easily?”

“I’m not!” Ranita felt her cheeks getting hotter. She turned her eyes away, not wanting to look at Brendon, but he was too close. No matter how she dodged, she could still see the mischievous smile in his eyes.

Ranita glared at him angrily. “Stop smiling!”

“I’m not smiling,” Brendon explained seriously. “I just think my Ranita is so cute!”

“You’re the cute one!” Ranita was so angry she wanted to bite him.

“Yes, yes, I’m cute!” Brendon hugged her waist. When his chin brushed over, his lips touched hers. After a brief taste, he pried open her teeth with a slightly heavy breath…

A sudden deep kiss.

In the quiet villa, the atmosphere became ambiguous and heated.

Ranita’s waist went soft, and her legs could barely stand.

When Brendon finally let go of her, she almost fell. Brendon laughed mischievously. “What’s wrong? Legs weak?”

Ranita pouted angrily. “No! Let go of me!”

“I haven’t finished washing the dishes!”

Brendon gently held her waist. “It’s okay, I won’t laugh at you!”

“Brendon…” Ranita was furious. “I don’t want to talk to you anymore.”

In the end, Brendon washed the dishes.

Ranita felt hot and thirsty, gulping down cold water. She felt so embarrassed! How could she get weak in the knees just from a kiss?

“Stop drinking!” Suddenly, Brendon’s fingers reached over and held the cup, his long fingers overlapping hers. They were cool but made her heart race.

“I want to drink! I’m thirsty!” Ranita patted his hand in annoyance. It was all this man’s fault!

Brendon said nothing, just watched her drink water.

“Didn’t you say you were busy? Stop watching me drink water. I’ll leave soon!”

“Leave?” Brendon’s eyes lowered, and he seemed suddenly downcast. “You’re not staying?”

Huh? Ranita said irritably, “If I don’t go back for a night, do you think my mom won’t notice?”

“Even if my mom doesn’t know, my brother will find out! How am I supposed to explain?”

Ranita didn’t want the Bowman family to know that Brendon was staying here. She really didn’t know how to explain it!

“No need to explain.” Brendon pulled her close, his long arm naturally wrapping around her waist, fitting perfectly against him. “Do we need to explain our relationship?”

“Why don’t you let me meet your parents?” Brendon sighed. “I feel like I’m being hidden away like a secret lover.”

Ranita laughed. “No way!”Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

She didn’t even know what her relationship with Brendon was now… It wasn’t exactly remarriage; they were just dating again!

“You can’t meet my parents yet! Have you ever seen someone meet the parents after dating for just ten days or half a month?”

Ranita huffed. “So keep dreaming!”

Brendon looked at her in shock. “Our child is over three years old!”

“That doesn’t change the fact that I’m single!” Ranita’s words made Brendon regretful. He gritted his teeth and said, “I shouldn’t have been so impulsive and divorced you back then!”
