The Divorcee Who Shines novel Chapter 125

Chapter 125 Drowning

"Do you want to answer the phone?" Ranita calmly handed the decision over to Brendon.

The ringtone kept ringing and showed no sign of stopping.

As expected, and unexpected, the phone rang. Ranita's lips curled into a sarcastic smile. "You better answer it, what if it's an emergency?"

Brendon emotionlessly reached for his phone and answered. It wasn't Shannon on the other end, but Holly.

"Brendon, Shannon accidentally fell into the artificial lake and drowned..."

"What happened? How did she drown?" Brendon's face darkened as he asked while anxiously running his hand through his hair.

"I don't know! She was in a bad mood and feeling lost so I went for a walk with her. Next thing I knew she was feeding fish when she suddenly fell into the water... Shannon can't swim and choked on water."

Ranita didn't hear what else was said as Brendon hung up the phone with a serious expression. "Something happened to Shannon, I need to go to the hospital."

"I'll send someone over to take care of you."

What would be the point if it wasn't Brendon?

Ranita calmly straightened her clothes and forced out a bland smile towards him. "No need, I can take care of myself."

"Miss Murphy drowning is no small matter; you should leave now."

Brendon looked at Ranita with deep-set eyes before pursing his thin lips but ultimately left in haste.

Sigh...

Ranita felt sad inside.
