A Successful Career After Divorce

Shannon was silently telling her something.

Brendon could take care of her, be with her, it was Shannon’s gift to Ranita!

Ranita’s heart turned cold as ice.

“Ranita, let me put these flowers in a vase for you! Do you have one here?” Shannon’s eyes were gentle and she seemed unaware of what she had just said. She fluttered away like a butterfly to find a vase.

Ranita’s smile was icy. “Don’t trouble, Miss Murphy. I don’t like daisies.”

“Oh… you don’t like them?” Shannon looked at Brendon with a pitiful expression. “Brendon, did I do something wrong? Did I upset Ranita?”

“I… just wanted to check on Ranita because I’m worried about her. I didn’t mean to disturb you guys.” Shannon choked up and sounded even more pitiful.

Brendon furrowed his brows and said, “It’s nothing. She might be a bit tired and wants to rest. Let’s go talk outside!”

“Alright then!” Shannon bit her lip, pitifully looking at Ranita. “Ranita, I won’t disturb you.”This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Shannon hesitated before speaking again and glanced at Brendon, “There is something that both you and Ranita might not want to hear but I have to say it.”

“Ranita had been captive for so many days; it must have taken a toll on her physically and mentally. I know a reliable doctor. Would you like me to introduce you to them?”

“Can you please say something nice instead?” Just then the hospital room door opened and Dylan pushed Eve inside while holding roses in his hand.

Eve raised an eyebrow at Shannon, “What do you mean by ‘taken a toll on her physically and mentally’? What are you trying to imply?”

“I didn’t mean anything bad… I just wanted what was best for Ranita since she is a girl who shouldn’t avoid facing problems but should take measures.” Shannon’s eyes were red-rimmed as she twisted her fingers anxiously, “If those people had any diseases they could pass them on…”

“Shannon, what nonsense are you talking about? Ranita is innocent. How did you turn nothing into something?” Eve couldn’t help but rebuke.

“You need leave now! You’re not welcome here!” Dylan also became angry as he grabbed the daisy bouquet from Shannon’s hands before glaring at Brendon fiercely, “Take your people away or else don’t blame me if things get ugly!”

Shannon’s fair face immediately became tearful and aggrieved. “I… I was just worried about Ranita, I didn’t mean any harm! You are all her friends, shouldn’t you care about her more?”

“And this little daisy, I just liked it so much that I wanted to bring it to Ranita!”

Shannon looked at Brendon with a gentle expression and said in a pitiful tone, “I didn’t mean to do it on purpose. Brendon, please believe me?”

The three people present were all disgusted beyond words.

Brendon took Shannon outside and saw her crying continuously. He handed her a handkerchief and said, “Stop crying! What you said earlier was very disrespectful to Ranita.”

“I only had good intentions. I didn’t think too much…” Shannon muttered softly while acting coquettishly towards Brendon. “Brendon, don’t blame me anymore. I know my mistake now. From now on, I won’t say things like that again.”

She acted as if she were innocent and naive.

Ranita quietly watched Shannon’s performance through the observation window as she saw Brendon handing over the handkerchief… Her heart grew colder by the moment.
