Chapter 260 Waist Is Not Even as Big as His Palm
"Come over and have a cup of coffee. What do you want to drink?" Brendon asked in a casual tone.
For many days now, they had been living together like this, side by side in normalcy and fightingalongside each other.
Ranita didn't find this life boring. Although she was always anxious inside, she was content. Sheturned her head and her gaze fell on the man's tie.novelbin
"Your tie is crooked," Ranita helped him straighten it out and said calmly. "Just plain water is fine."
Ranita waited for the lunch box while Brendon made coffee and poured water for her. No one spokebut it was comforting and satisfying.
Brendon ate his lunch while Ranita flipped through magazines occasionally glancing at Brendon.
"You've looked at me 18 times already. Is there something you want to say?" Brendon stoppedeating with chopsticks raised, arching an eyebrow as he asked Ranita.
Caught red-handed, Ranita's ears turned slightly red.
She did want to talk about the child but she felt that it wasn't appropriate now since they still hadwork to do, not to mention the unresolved issue between him and Shannon. Bringing up the topic ofchildren would only make things more complicated.
Perhaps Ranita lacked confidence too.
"I haven't!" Ranita didn't want to admit anything, "How would I know if you're looking at me if I don'tlook back?"
She argued forcefully without reason.
Brendon chuckled softly in his throat as he looked at her with teasing and mocking expression, "Ifyou really wanted to look, then just look openly. I won't scold you."
His voice was gentle which she never expected before.
Ranita felt extremely nervous but her heart was eager; like a moth drawn irresistibly towards theflame of tenderness without any resistance whatsoever from within herself.
"Is that so?" Her eyes curved into a happy smile as she asked excitedly.
"Of course!" Brendon held onto her hand while packing up the lunch boxes saying, "I'll finish mywork today then we can go out for two days together. Relax our minds."
Now Ranita's heart almost flew away from its place!
"Where are we going? You're going out with me?" She never thought that Brendon would take theinitiative to suggest going out together which really surprised her!
"Do you have any place in mind?" Of course there were! So many places where she wanted to gowith him!
"What place do you want us to go?" She wished that she could immediately pull out her phonecheck where they could go but when facing Brendon, she restrained herself because what placesshe wanted might not be what he wanted too.
She was truly happy.
Her eyes curved like a crescent moon, sparkling with starlight. Her delicate features came to life asshe relaxed her expression.
Like a child receiving her favorite toy or eating a sweet lollipop.
"Knock knock!" Julia entered the room and interrupted their conversation. "Mr. Stuart... Mr. Ramosis waiting in the conference room, are you ready to go?"
Afterwards, Julia nodded at Ranita again and said, "Miss Bowman, good afternoon."
As the matter at hand was more important, they didn't continue discussing the topic of going out toplay, but instead shifted the conversation back to the interview.
As they walked, Brendon spoke to Ranita, "The HR department has already conducted two roundsof interviews, and the candidate has excellent qualifications in all aspects. However, since it's theposition you once took over, I thought it would be best for you to have a look as well."
After pausing for several seconds, Brendon stopped and looked at Ranita, "Actually, there's noreason for you to leave Stuart's Corp now."
They weren't getting divorced after all.
Everything would continue as before.
Ranita shook her head, "No thanks, I just want some rest. Signing another contract with Stuart'sCorp would be too busy."
"That makes sense," Brendon said with a smile before leaning closer and whispering into her ear."You've lost so much weight lately... Your waist is smaller than my palm. I'm afraid it'll snap in half."
