Chapter 278 Got a Little Bellynovelbin
"Are you ready?" The wait was too long, and Ranita couldn’t help but feel anxious.
“It’s almost time!” Brendon’s throat rolled.
Finally, Brendon wrapped his arm around her waist, placing his palm on her small belly and frowned. “Ranita… it seems like you’ve gained weight in your stomach.”
Ranita froze.
Her spine stiffened as she pursed her lips hard and pretended to be calm. “No way. You must have mistaken it.”
“How could I? Your face looks slimmer, your waist is thinner… only your stomach has grown…” Brendon pinched her flesh with his fingers and chuckled teasingly. “Do you have a baby in there?”
A chill ran down Ranita’s spine.
She turned to look at Brendon with courage and asked, “If I really am pregnant, what are you going to do? Are we going to keep the baby?”
“Our child… don’t you want to keep it?” Brendon asked back as he lowered his eyes filled with emotion.
Would this woman who loved someone else help him raise a child? If they had a child together, Ranita would never be able to leave him for the rest of their lives...
“Haha! I’m just kidding! Why are you taking this so seriously!” Ranita lowered her eyelashes and spoke softly. “You’ve always been careful; where would the baby come from?”
Brendon’s eyes grew darker as he tightened his grip on her arm. “It’s not that; when you moved out that one time, there was one time when we forgot… what if something happened then?”
Pausing for a moment, Brendon suddenly remembered when they were in Gaesburg during that time, when Ranita had gotten her period…
“No! Don’t think about it!” If it wasn’t for Shannon’s situation right now, she probably would’ve told him everything but now she didn’t plan on saying anything anymore.
Ranita pushed away from Brendon’s grasp and stood in front of the mirror.
The water-blue dress made her skin appear even fairer than before - fragile yet smooth - every step she took caused the light veil behind her sway gently while swaying like willow leaves.
“You look beautiful!” Brendon couldn’t take his eyes off of hers.
With delicate features combined with an elegant figure that held any color dress well.
“Wait outside for me. I’ll be done soon.” She needed some privacy while doing makeup because having Brendon stare at herself was too embarrassing.
Ranita spoke coolly with distant tone causing sourness within Brendon’s heart.
“Ranita… please don’t be mad at me.”
Looking at him already caused waves of emotions within herself making everything feel torn apart inside of herself.
Why was Brendon so heartless? He cut her heart into pieces with his own hands and still expected her not to be angry?
Her heart, along with the warmth in her fingertips, slowly faded away.
Ranita sat at the dressing table and spoke softly. “I’m not throwing a tantrum. I just want to do my makeup. I don’t want you to get bored waiting for me.”
Ranita wanted to throw a fit, but what good would it do? In Brendon’s heart, it was clear who was more important.
Ranita already looked beautiful without makeup. With light makeup and some lipstick to enhance her lip color, she looked simple yet elegant in her water-blue dress. Content belongs to smnovel.net
She looked like a fairy who didn’t belong in this world.
Brendon also changed into a custom-made suit that accentuated his height and long legs. Coupled with his handsome face that never got old, he was definitely the most eye-catching person in the room. Content belongs to smnovel.net
“It looks great,” Ranita complimented him as Brendon raised an eyebrow with a hint of happiness on his face.
Before they left for their event, Brendon went to the bathroom while Ranita drank water. The doorbell rang.
At the door stood Shannon wearing a white cocktail dress. She sweetly said to Ranita, “Brendon left his watch at my place earlier; I came here to give it back.” Content belongs to smnovel.net
