When she unveils identities novel (Shirley and Braden) novel Chapter 131

Chapter 131 Don’t You Lay a Finger on Her!

Everyone turned to look at the staff.

The man was sweating and out of breath. “Reverse Bay… Ms. Tierney’s shoes are on the edge of the cliff in Reverse Bay. Maybe she fell into the sea!”

Reverse Bay was a famous scenic spot in this area. It consisted of a small C–shaped cliff, and the terrain there was dangerous.

“She fell into the sea?”

Keith shouted anxiously, “Cherry doesn’t know how to swim. Everyone, go and help her!”

He rushed out first, followed by Karen and Braden.

Shirley was stunned for a second and followed along with the other curious guests.

The seawater in Reverse Bay was relatively calm. Unfortunately, the sun had set, and the light was kind of dim, so they could not see Cherry.

Looking at the neatly arranged wedding shoes on the edge of the cliff, Shirley speculated, “Could it be that Ms. Tierney felt that wearing high heels was too tiring, so she deliberately took them off and placed them here? Maybe she is still enjoying the view somewhere near here.”

“How is that possible?”

Hester wouldn’t give Shirley a break whatsoever. She said suggestively, “As everyone knows, Ms. Tierney is a reasonable person. It’s her wedding today. Instead of showing up, she went around to enjoy the view, leaving everyone worried about her. Does that sound right to you?

“Ms. Wilson, maybe it is you that has a guilty conscience. You want to stall, divert our attention, and then your ulterior motive can be achieved.”

Shirley was pissed off. She coldly asked, “And what ulterior motive would that be? How come I didn’t even know about that?”

“If you ask me, I’d say that you pushed Ms. Tierney into the sea. If Ms. Tierney dies, you will be the most suspicious one!”

Hester’s words instantly stirred up intense discussion.

“That’s right! I’m sure it’s her!”

Sandra Tierney, Cherry’s mother, pounced at Shirley with red eyes, beating Shirley, and said, “You vicious woman! Why did you harm my girl? Give me my daughter back!”

Sandra was a mother, so Shirley understood how anxious Sandra was right now. Therefore, Shirley did not get angry or resist. She just spread her hands helplessly. “You got me. Why did I harm your

girl? I have no idea. I have no reason to harm her at all. Why would I be a murderer for no reason?”

Sandra had already lost her mind. She was completely unreasonable and knew nothing but vent her emotions uncontrollably.

“I don’t care. It is you who harmed her! The photo is right there! You hit my girl, and you pushed her into the sea… A life for a life! I want you to pay with your life!”

She punched Shirley non–stop, and the latter subconsciously protected her belly and retorted bluntly, “I’m warning you. If you don’t stop, there will be consequences!”

Such words caused more criticism.

The crowd believed that Shirley was the bad woman who pushed Cherry into the sea. They kept cursing her, and some even ran up to help Sandra.

“Call the police! Arrest this poisonous woman!”

“What are you waiting for? Beat her! Beat her to death!”

Cherry’s friends and relatives raised their fists, looking like they were going to beat Shirley to

death on the spot.

Shirley couldn’t take it anymore and clenched her fists, ready to teach these people a lesson.

“Don’t you lay a finger on her!”

Braden pulled Shirley behind him and looked coldly at the few ones who were ready to attack her He exuded a solemn aura that made others shudder.

Sandra shouted, snapping, “Braden, get out of the way. You used to go out with Cherry. You shouldn’t be protecting the murderer who killed her!”

Braden’s perfect face was utterly cold as he said ruthlessly, “Don’t jump to conclusion without proof. She is mine, and no one gets to lay their fingers on her.”

Keith was also certain that it was Shirley who had harmed Cherry. He glared at Braden. “What proof do you need when it’s so obvious? You’re divorced. What does she have to do with you? Why are you

so protective of her?”

“We were married for four years. Do you think we will be strangers?”
