Chapter 274 Coming to the Door

"Ranita." Out of nowhere, Vincent's voice came from behind. "Have you finished your call? If so, goback and have lunch."

Ranita turned around, her eyes a little uncomfortable. She quickly lowered her head.

Vincent was originally leaning against the balcony door. Seeing her appearance, he took two stepsforward and asked with his head tilted, "Did sand get into your eye?"

"Yeah!" Ranita nodded along with his words.

"It'll be fine in a while. Don't rub it or it'll get redder." Vincent handed her a tissue and spoke gentlyas if he knew something but didn't expose her.

Although Vincent was older than her by some measure, men like him were mature and charming incertain ways - gentle in character and caring for others.

"Thank you."

After lunch, Vincent left with Ranita. It was almost the end of the semester now; most students werebusy taking final exams at noon time on weekdays so there weren't many people on the pedestrianwalkway.

Vincent led her through a shady green path that passed by the library where he stopped to say,"The ivy here hasn't changed at all over these years."

"That's true. I used to like reading there." Ranita pointed to the arch railing position on the secondfloor with a smile in her eyes.

Standing at that spot on the second floor allowed one to look up and see people passing belowthem.

Ranita still remembered how she felt when she saw Brendon for the first time - heart beating likeriding on a roller coaster; he shone brightly as if rubbing off light into her eyes.

"I used to like staying there too," Vincent smiled regretfully saying. "It's too bad I graduated earlierthan you did. Otherwise, we could still read together."

"... if you didn't graduate, then Professor wouldn't have noticed me," Ranita smiled as shereminisced. Vincent used to be the professor's favorite and a star student. After he graduated,Ranita took over the baton.

"Don't say that... do you want to go inside? I have my card so I can lend books for you." Althoughnext semester was when Vincent would start teaching classes officially, the school had alreadygiven him an access card long ago just so they can keep him tied down here longer.

Ranita hesitated slightly because Kurima Foreign Studies University Library had many books notavailable outside but it wasn't early anymore; she needed to return home soon instead...

So they agreed that next time they would come together again...

At the apartment entrance, as soon as Ranita stepped out of elevator, she saw Amiya and Hollystanding nearby; pursing lips without looking sideways towards them, she walked straight towardshome door.

"Ranita, stop right there!" Holly glared at her and shouted, reaching out to block Ranita's path.

Ranita furrowed her brows. "Miss Stuart, Mrs. Stuart, what can I do for you?"

"Honestly Ranita, what's with your attitude? You refuse to divorce my brother and now my mother isstill your mother-in-law. Who do you think you are to give anyone an attitude?" Holly gritted herteeth and looked like she was about to tear into Ranita.

Ranita was speechless. "You came here on your own accord and yet wonder why people dislikeyou? I don't welcome you here so please leave."

"Ranita..." Holly was about to explode again when Amiya stepped in and sneered, "Ranita, sinceyou haven't divorced Brendon yet, technically I am still your mother-in-law. Is this how you treatelders?"

Suppressing her anger, Ranita asked, "Mrs. Stuart, what brings the two of you here today?"

"Are we sure we want to discuss this in public?"

Not wanting them inside her home, she went together with them to a nearby café.

Amiya wasted no time getting down to business, "There are two things I need from you, Ranita..."
