The Divorcee Who Shines novel Chapter 17

Chapter 17 Return Gift

"Mrs. Stuart, calm down! It's not worth getting sick over!" Ranita paused and sent Amiya a list on her phone. "Mrs. Stuart, there's one more thing I need your help with. The items on this list are my personal belongings still at Boulderland Mansion. Should I call the police to retrieve them or can you gather them and deliver them to me?"

"Ranita!" Amiya couldn't hold back any longer and gritted her teeth in anger. "How dare you order me around?"

"I wouldn't dream of it," Ranita replied sarcastically, her tone cool as ice. "You're far superior to me."

With that, Ranita left while Amiya nearly threw her coffee cup in frustration.

Feeling relieved after completing her work, Ranita stopped by the studio to pick up some files when she ran into Shannon in the VIP elevator.

Shannon was dressed elegantly in a white dress and held a branded coffee cup as she looked down at Ranita with an air of superiority.

Ranita cursed under her breath for being so unlucky today - unwanted people kept popping up before her eyes.

In her contemplation, she heard Shannon's sweet and cloying voice from behind, "Ranita, I heard that only company executives or VIPs can use this exclusive elevator. Why don't you go to the next one?"

"Thank you for reminding me, Miss Murphy but unfortunately I have special clearance from Mr. Stuart," replied Ranita calmly as she pressed the floor button.

The elevator doors closed.

On the pristine elevator wall, there were only two indistinct figures. Shannon, unable to contain herself, spoke first, "Ranita, do you know that Brendon and I are getting married?"

Ranita glanced at her with a calm tone, "I don't know when you plan to get married, but I do know that although I signed a divorce agreement, I haven't gone through the legal process yet! If you're too hasty, he might end up committing bigamy!"

"You!" Shannon raised her hand angrily but before she could throw the coffee, Ranita held onto her wrist first and said calmly, "Miss Murphy, don't bully innocent people all day long. Remember, even rabbits bite when they're cornered."

"Ranita, you're hurting my wrist... aren't you afraid I'll tell Brendon about this? You're bullying me!"
