When she unveils identities novel (Shirley and Braden) novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5 Being a Widow for Four Years

If time could be turned back, Braden hoped to gamble his whole life and go back to that night three

months ago.

That night, he and his brother were walking on Newchark street, discussing the future development direction of the Stewart family.

But they met a sudden attack.

His brother used his body to block the bullet that should have hit him.

Before he died, his brother said that he had a girlfriend whom he loved very much, named Amelie.

Amelie was just pregnant with his child.

“Marry Amelie, live on for me. Give Amelie and my child a complete family.”

Braden would never forget the desperate look of his brother when he held him with bloody hands and pleaded with him.

If time could be turned back, Braden would push away his brother, who stood in front of him. He would rather bear this death by himself!

“You offended your father and hurt Miss Wilson for the sake of the child and me. I wrestle with a conscience. Seriously… Forget it!”

“I can live a good life with a child by myself. Although it is very difficult for an unmarried woman who has a child, I can bear it for Charles‘ later generations!”

Amelie continued to cry.

She didn’t believe that Braden could remain indifferent to her trick.

Braden was stern. He kept a distance from Amelie quietly.

“My father just doesn’t know the actual situation, so he has a prejudice against you. Don’t mind it.”

“As for Shirley…”

Braden paused, and said coldly, “I have no relationship with her. I haven’t even slept with her for four years. Even without you, I would divorce her.”

“What about Miss Wilson? She must love you very much. After all, you are so handsome and outstanding.”

Amelie’s voice was seductive. She looked at Braden infatuatedly.

As a gold–digger, she was with the honest man Charles just for fun. After all, that guy was a very

C

boring simp.

Seeing Braden, she understood what love at first sight was.

She decided to focus on Braden.

Shirley was the biggest obstacle for her to get close to Braden!

“She doesn’t love me either.”

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so active in divorce.

Amelie was completely at ease.

It seemed that the two were as rumored. They didn’t love each other and hated each other. Divorce was only a matter of time. She didn’t need to worry too much at all.

“Miss Wilson is of poor taste. You are so handsome and outstanding, but she doesn’t love you. It’s a

windfall for me to get a treasure.”

Amelie moved closer to Braden.

Hearing what the woman said, Braden was inexplicably displeased and tugged on his tie irritably.

“It’s getting late. I’m leaving first.”

Amelie became anxious.

“Isn’t this your home? Where are you going?”

Braden said calmly, “I have another place to live in Seatle City.”

“What?”

Amelie was dumbfounded.

She expected that she could live with Braden and he could love her one day.

Was he leaving?

No wonder Braden hadn’t slept with Shirley for four years. Shirley was too miserable to be a widow for four years!

It had been three days since Shirley was discharged from the hospital. Her body had recovered fairly well.

She was moving today.

Ewan insisted that her one–bedroom apartment was too shabby, so he arranged another place for

her.

“Don’t worry, Shirley. I know you are low–key, so I chose a very low–key place for you.”

That was what Ewan told her on the phone.
