When she unveils identities novel (Shirley and Braden) novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128 I Lose

“No.”

Braden answered simply, his tone cold and distant.

“That’s impossible!”

Cherry immediately broke down, tears rolling down her cheek like beads.

She

put her arms around Braden’s neck tightly and pressed her face against his just like before,

trying to rekindle his tenderness.

“You don’t want to hurt Karen, so you have been suppressing your love for me. You love me the

same way I love you. You never get over me. Right?”

“It has nothing to do with Karen.”

Braden’s eyes became colder. He coldly pulled Cherry’s hands away from his neck and said, “Even if

you and Karen weren’t together, you and I would still be impossible. I hope you can be rational.”

“Why?”

Cherry looked at Braden painfully. She could not accept the fact that he did not love her anymore.

She cried and said, “You used to love me so much. I still remember how you confessed your love to

me under the cherry blossom tree and kissed me. I know that your feelings were real. For me, you

were even willing to give up the inheritance of the Stewart family and go abroad to study with me. How on earth can you let go of such deep affection?”

“I admit that I used to be very infatuated with you, and the love I had for you was real. But that’s all in the past, and both you and I should cherish what we have now.”

Braden said meaningfully.

He had indeed deeply loved Cherry in the past. Even in the few years when he married Shirley, he

had mistakenly thought that he still loved Cherry.

Later, he divorced Shirley and regained his freedom. Only then did he suddenly realize that the one

he could not let go of was not Cherry. What he could not let go of was his sincerity when facing

Cherry and his pure love for her.

Cherry sneered, “Cherish what we have now? Who is that?”

With tears on her cheeks, Cherry smiled self–mockingly, “Perhaps you don’t know how hypocritical Karen is. In fact, he doesn’t love me at all. He chooses me simply because I am suitable to be his wife given my background. His family is in politics, so he needs an educated woman from a scholarly family… Believe it or not, he will be relieved if I run away from the wedding today.”

Braden frowned.

He had never realized that there was something wrong with Karen and Cherry. He thought they had

always been a loving couple these years.

“Karen is a rational man. Compared with saying it out loud, he is more used to conveying his love

via action. He may not say a lot, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t care about you…”

Braden didn’t want Cherry to be upset a lot. He gently patted her shoulder and comforted her, “Don’t think too much. Karen loves you very much.”

“Stop trying to comfort me. You have no idea…”

Cherry took a deep breath and said with a bitter expression, “So, you refused to start over with me, because you had already found the right one, am I right?”

Braden pursed his thin lips.

He did not say a word.

He thought, have I found the right one I want to cherish?

I’m not sure.

The one that instinctively emerges in my mind is Shirley.

But things between us have already come to an end…

“I see. I lost.”

Cherry revealed a relieved smile, reluctantly looking at Braden. She said, “Ms. Wilson is very outstanding, and I can tell that she loves you a lot. I give you my blessing, and I am sincerely convinced of losing to her.

“Alright then. I’m fine now. You may go out. If you and I stay here any longer, we’ll never be able to explain ourselves.”

“Are you sure you’re OK?”

“Yes.”
