The Divorcee Who Shines novel Chapter 70

Chapter 70 Takes Advantage of the Situation

"Great!" Shannon looked at Julia appreciatively and pulled out a box from her bag, handing it over. "This is a thank-you gift for letting me know about Brendon working late tonight."

Julia smiled politely as she accepted the box. "Thank you, Miss Murphy."

Julia was content with the gift, but as soon as Shannon turned away, she placed the box on the table and muttered to herself, "Who needs this trinket? She hasn't even married into the Stuart family yet, and she's already acting like Mrs. Stuart..."

And Ranita too! She had already divorced Mr. Stuart, yet she was shamelessly vying for his attention!

Well, let Ranita and Shannon fight for him!

Inside the office, Ranita clenched her teeth. "Mr. Stuart, are you not going to get up? Do you plan to stay there until next year?"

Brendon got up, looking embarrassed, and cleared his throat. "Sorry, I'm just used to..."

"You be quiet!" Ranita was so frustrated that it felt like steam was about to come out of her ears.

"Sorry..." This time it was Brendon's genuine fault.

Ranita shot him a glare before heading for the door when suddenly, there was a knock. "Brendon, can I come in?"

Ranita's heart raced; why was Shannon here? She was relieved that Shannon arrived a little later, as getting caught in the act would have been disastrous.

But then it hit her. Why should she be afraid? It was Brendon who was taking advantage of her!

Shannon strolled in, acting as if she owned the place. She placed the soup container on the table and said, "Brendon, I happened to be passing by, so I brought you some soup."
