When she unveils identities novel (Shirley and Braden) novel Chapter 15

Chapter 15 Lingering Kiss

“Ahem!”

Shirley was drinking lemonade, and his words made her choke on her drink.

She couldn’t believe what she had just heard. This master, who always hid his feelings, said something this straightforward?

“Get over yourself. Who said I loved you?”

Shirley dodged his sharp gaze and denied it with guilty.

“The whole world is saying you once loved me so much.”

When Braden said this, his thin lips raised an arc unconsciously.

There were many women who said they loved him and threw themselves on him one after another,

but he felt nothing but bored.

Only this woman’s love made him enjoy it very much, and somehow he felt a sense of

accomplishment.

“Stop it. That was part of the performance in the live stream. You know better than anyone else

what’s going on.”

She waved her hand, looking free and easy.

She didn’t want to admit the fact that she once loved him very much.

Because only in this way could she raise her chin proudly and maintain her poor self–esteem.

It was a pity that Braden insisted on breaking through her disguise like a hunter who was pressing every step of the way.

“If you don’t love me, why do you secretly give me gifts? If you don’t love me, why are you looking at me affectionately in every picture of us together? And if you don’t love me, why do you treat Amelie with hostility? You are clearly jealous.”

Shirley was overwhelmed by these questions, and she got this feeling of being torn open by someone and feeling ashamed.

“So?”

What was he doing? He tried to prove that she once loved him very much, so he could hurt her as he pleased. What did he want? To see her crying for him, couldn’t get over him to satisfy his vanity?

That was ridiculous!

Shirley looked at the man indifferently and said mockingly, “Braden, you are really the most ruthless and conceited man I have ever seen.”

“It doesn’t matter whether I loved you or not, the important thing is that I don’t love you now, and I

won’t love you in the future.”

“If you call me out in the middle of the night just to let me admit that I loved you to prove your charm as a man, then you are boring!”

Shirley was about to leave, and the waiter brought up two freshly fried sirloin steaks with beautiful

blue flames dancing on them.

Braden cut the steak gracefully and said calmly. “If you didn’t love me, why do you react so much

now? Sit down and eat with me. I have something to discuss with you.”

She didn’t know what to say.

Shirley clenched his fingers.

Compared with his inattentiveness, her mood swings were indeed bigger, and it made her seem

guilty.

No, she couldn’t lose!

Shirley sat down again, cutting the steak with the same elegant posture.

It just so happened that she was also hungry, so it was not a loss to have a big meal with her

prospective ex–husband.

During the meal, they were very quiet.

If she was not wrong, this was one of the few times they ate together alone in the four years of their marriage.

Shirley was so hungry that she didn’t cut the steak into small pieces. So she just stuffed big pieces straight into her mouth.

She looked like a little squirrel with bulging cheeks, which was inexplicably cute.

Braden smiled, and he didn’t even notice it.

He remembered that this woman used to act very ladylike.

She used to smile without showing her teeth, speak softly, eat in small bites, look dignified, and never seemed to get angry.

He didn’t expect that divorce would change a woman so much.

“How do you plan to end the farce you caused?”

Braden suddenly put down the knife and fork and looked at the woman coldly.

“How do I end it?”

Shirley smiled coldly. “You can end it however you want. Doesn’t Stewart Group get powerful PR that is the best at controlling the direction of public opinion? So why do you ask me?”

Braden smiled evilly. “So you are saying I can do whatever I want?”

“Didn’t Mr. Stewart always do whatever he wants?”

Shirley didn’t understand what this guy wanted to do.

Now she thought about it and realized that he had been acting weird since the beginning.

At this time, Braden suddenly snapped his fingers in the air.

The lights in the entire restaurant were dimmed, and only a ray of light shone on Shirley.

She didn’t know when Braden left his seat and came behind her, holding a bunch of sunflowers in

his hand, which was loved the most by women.

Shirley leaned against the back of the chair, looking at the man in horror.

What was going on?

“Sunflower’s flower language is that there is no one else in sight but you, just like my feelings for

you…”

Braden spoke elegantly and dignifiedly, like a male lead in a romcom, handsome and affectionate.

“Honey, I’m sorry!”

“Wifey, I love you!”

After speaking, he held her delicate and beautiful face and kissed her lips deeply.
