A Successful Career After Divorce

Chapter 284 Persuasion



Virginia spoke at a moderate pace, but her tone was full of attitude. Every word hit Ranita’s heart with clarity.

“You… you know about Shannon’s pregnancy, right?” Virginia asked in return.

Ranita, the beauty of Kurima Foreign Studies University, was someone Virginia knew a little bit about. She actually liked Ranita because they were similar in nature. Unfortunately, she happened to be Shannon’s opponent.

“Miss Murphy, are you here to convince me to divorce Brendon?”

“Brendon’s heart isn’t with you anymore. What meaning does continuing this marriage have for you?” Virginia didn’t answer and instead kicked the question back at Ranita.

“I actually admire you! You shouldn’t waste your career on a man. Delaying love and wasting your short life, someone as smart as you shouldn’t do these foolish things.”

Ranita was speechless.

Virginia wasn’t necessarily saying anything outrageous but she just had to side with Shannon.

“Miss Bowman, I believe you can figure it out,” Virginia raised her glass to her.

“Virginia! What are you doing here?” Just then, a figure emerged from the dimness. Chris, dressed in a suit, frowned at Virginia. “If there’s something, you should talk to Brendon instead of taking it out on her.”

“Taking it out on her? Mr. Webster, do you know what I said to her?” Virginia rolled her eyes at Chris and walked away, huffing with anger.

“Are you okay? Did Virginia give you a hard time?” Chris asked, concerned.

Ranita shook her head. “No! She didn’t give me a hard time.”

“Are you not busy? There are many guests today, so you must be tired,” Ranita asked.

Chris smiled gently. “They’re all acquaintances, so it’s alright.” He paused and hesitated, “Shannon is here too. You haven’t run into her, have you?”

Chris was genuinely worried about her.

Ranita felt grateful deep down. “I’m fine. I’m used to it.”

A simple statement of being used to it, but it carried so much heartache.

Chris encouraged her, “Brendon is not someone who lacks understanding. Maybe he has his reasons. You’ve been together for many years, so sit down and have a good talk when something comes up.”

Chris felt like he was meddling too much.

But seeing Ranita’s desolate expression, he couldn’t bear it.

“Thank you, Mr. Webster… I understand!” Ranita paused for a moment and suddenly remembered something. “Mr. Webster, I have some money on hand that I want to donate. Do you know any reliable charity workers?”

“You want to do charity work? Don’t you still have enough money after buying the sapphire necklace before?”

The matter of Wyatt’s will was not disclosed, so outsiders did not know that Ranita was now a real rich woman.

Ranita smiled at his words and said, “I have enough! Don’t worry about it!”

“Well then! Kora previously organized a charitable organization with some wealthy women to help women and children in need.” Chris took Ranita to find Kora.

In the lounge, when Kora heard that Ranita wanted to donate money, she was so happy that she couldn’t stop smiling, “Ranita! You’re beautiful and kind-hearted. I really like you!”

“Kora, don’t praise me too much. I’m starting to feel embarrassed.” Kora was good at everything except being too enthusiastic!

Ranita wasn’t stingy either; she said she would donate millions of dollars for charity work. This shocked Kora, “Ranita, don’t give away all your wealth; you still need money for your own expenses.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

But Ranita only said that she had enough money.

Kora liked her very much and suggested, “How about joining our charity organization? We can use part of the money you donated for public welfare projects while investing another part in trustworthy investments. Then we can continue using profits from these investments for public welfare…”
