Chapter 565 Conflict

Book:A Successful Career After Divorce Published:2024-6-4

“Ranita, how dare you hit me! Do you want to die…” After Holly’s shock, her anger erupted like a volcano!
Ignoring the public setting, she directly pounced towards Ranita.
Ranita was prepared and took a few steps back, planning to knock Holly down when she reached out to grab her face.
However, someone was faster than her!
“Holly! What are you doing!” A cold voice spread out, and a pair of hands held Holly in place. Holly’s face twisted in extreme anger, “Brother, you’re still being mean to me! You should ask Ranita about that. She hit me first!”
Brendon frowned, his eyes coldly fixed on Holly.
Holly trembled under his gaze, her voice becoming weaker, “She was the one who started it!”
“You’re just being shameless! Holly, watch your words! It’s your own fault!” Ranita was also angry because of her own involvement. Augustus had been insulted multiple times today because of her, he was her brother’s friend and her friend too!
“Why should I watch my words… Everyone can see it, isn’t your boyfriend ugly?”
“Holly, do you want to get slapped again!” As Ranita spoke, she heard Brendon’s displeased voice addressing Holly, “Holly, apologize!”
“Brother! What are you saying… I won’t apologize to her… I didn’t say…” Holly couldn’t finish her sentence as Brendon’s icy gaze silenced her, and she timidly retreated, “Brother, I won’t apologize! I won’t apologize!”
Brendon looked down at her and repeated, “Apologize!”
“Brother…”
“Judging people by their appearance, lacking manners. If I ever hear you say such things again, you’ll stay home and learn how to behave properly!” Brendon’s words made Holly feel utterly embarrassed. She clenched her lips, her face turning pale.
But she dared not disobey Brendon’s words.
“I’m sorry! I was wrong just now. I shouldn’t have said those things!” As soon as Holly spoke, she immediately stomped her foot and ran away.
“Holly is spoiled and impulsive, speaks without thinking. You taught her a lesson,” Brendon looked at her, and his last sentence was very low and heavy, reducing Ranita’s anger by half.
If others said that, what else could she do?!
Ranita turned her head and walked away.
Before reaching her seat, Ranita saw Holly leaning on Shannon’s shoulder, her eyes red with grievance. She even complained, “Shannon, I was bullied.”
“She’s really annoying… I hate her!”
The ‘her’ in question, Ranita didn’t need to think to know it was referring to herself.
Shannon comforted Holly, and with a sidelong glance at Ranita, she pouted and said, “Ranita, I heard that you had a little unpleasant incident with Holly. Even if it was very unpleasant, you shouldn’t have resorted to violence. How do you expect others to see her?”
Ranita coldly ignored her.
After all this time, Ranita finally understood one thing! Don’t talk to Shannon, it’s a waste of breath.
This woman distorts right and wrong and always tries to blame her!
“Ranita, how could you be like this! You’re hitting Holly and your attitude is so bad. You’re really too much!” Shannon’s voice was sweet and delicate, with a hint of innocence even when scolding.
People always sympathize with the weak.
Shannon’s submissive posture made everyone look at Ranita, and some couldn’t help but speak up for her.
“Ladies, let’s not argue. Don’t fight…”
