Shannon asked tentatively.

The phone call earlier had been intended to provoke Ranita, but if Ranita were to report it to Brendon, she didn't know how he would react.

"It's already late; Ranita should be asleep by now." After pausing briefly, he continued, "I called Caleb just now. I suddenly left the resort, and there was no one to take care of Ranita on her side, so I asked Caleb to go there."

Shannon felt triumphant in her heart. She knew that she was still the most important person in Brendon's heart. Ranita was sure to have a sleepless night tonight! Shannon was in a great mood, and her voice was sweet and coquettish, "Brendon, I'm sorry. I've caused you trouble again!"

"When I'm feeling better, I'll personally apologize to Ranita," Shannon said.

Brendon nodded. "Ranita won't hold it against you."

Brendon knew Ranita's personality well – calm and collected. She wouldn't get upset over something so small.

"That's great news! I was worried that Ranita would be angry with me. After all, she's going through a tough time and needs someone by her side," Shannon said empathetically, but her hand was on Brendon's arm. "Thank you for coming to keep me company, Brendon. It means a lot to me."

Brendon comforted Shannon for a bit before leaving.

Ranita couldn't sleep because of the pain in her leg from cramping. It felt like it had gone numb from the pain alone as she tossed and turned until finally calling Steve.

"Ranita, why are you calling me so late? Is everything okay?" Steve asked hoarsely.

"Dr. Pearson, sorry to bother you at this hour but my leg is cramping badly... I was wondering if there is any way to relieve the pain?"

Cramps weren't anything serious but only those who have experienced them know how painful they can be.

Steve quickly replied, "Where are you? I'll come take a look."

"Dr. Pearson, if you could just tell me what to do, then I can handle it myself... I'm at Moon Mountain Resort which is quite far from Kurima."

Steve could be heard rustling around as he got dressed on his end of the line before saying, "Can you stand up? If so then try using hot towels first."

"If not, then call one of the resort staff members for help.... Is there anywhere else that doesn't feel good besides your legs?"

After thinking about it for a moment, Ranita replied, "Nope! Just my legs cramping painfully... I'll try using hot towels now though!"

"I'm sorry for bothering you so late," she added apologetically.

"It's no problem at all since I am a doctor after all! Plus today was my night shift and after checking out rooms earlier today I haven't slept yet," Steve answered back before continuing, "If there's anything else, don't hesitate to contact me again…you've helped me out several times in the past without giving me an opportunity repay your kindness."Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

After hanging up with Steve, Ranita leaned against the wall while making her way slowly towards bathroom where she struggled with twisting hot towels around her cramped calf muscles. The muscles were throbbing painfully until they were covered by warm heat which made them feel much better almost instantly.

This method really worked!

Ranit repeated this process several times while lying down on sofa feeling drowsy.

The villa room was spacious enough that when Brendon had been present, she hadn't felt its emptiness. But now that he wasn't here, it seemed quiet and hollow. Her heart felt just as empty too.

After an unknown amount of time, the doorbell rang! Ranita, dazed and confused, went to answer it. Who could be coming to see her at this late hour?

Ranita opened the door and saw a tall man standing before her.

Her eyes inexplicably began to water.
