Chapter 414 There Were Cracks Anyway
“Alright, let’s have a drink. It’s been a long time since I drink heartily with someone!”
Shirley felt that she and Ida were quite fated. The two of them hit it off and went to a
bar street at Sutor Wharf. They randomly chose a small bar and ordered two beers.
Then, they began to drink.
The lights in the bar were charming. On the stage, there was a man with long hair
playing the guitar and singing a folk song with a beautiful melody. The entire
atmosphere was very different from the area of Sutor Wharf where regulations didn’t
reach. It made people comfortable.
“Ida, how long have you known Mr. Quintin? You seem to have feelings for him.”
Shirley drank half a bottle of beer quietly. The tingling feeling made her particularly
awake and even a little excited. So she started to be interested in the gossip.
“There isn’t such a woman who doesn’t have feelings for Mr. Quintin. It’s just that I am
self-aware. It is my great fortune to be his assistant. I must have done a lot of great
things in my last life!
Ida also relaxed a lot. She also drank half a bottle happily, without concealing her
admiration for Mr. Quintin.
“Great. I like to make friends with people like you. You are honest. From now on, we
are good friends.”
Shirley touched Ida’s beer bottle, unable to hide the good impression of Ida in her
expression.
In fact, she did not have many friends other than Nancy.
Ida and she were both single mothers. After chatting, they found that many of their
ideas were very similar. Some sadness and helplessness of taking care of a child
alone were very resonating.
“In other words, you had already decided to marry Mr. Quintin. But in the end, the
person you married was the one who hurt you the most?”
Under the dim light, Shirley clinked bottles with Ida one after another. Shirley told Ida
most of the things about her, Mr. Quintin, and Braden.
They both found it hard to understand.
“‘Mr. Quintin isn’t the kind of person who goes back on his word, nor is he the kind of
despicable person. I guess… it must be your scum ex-husband who used some
underhanded means to interfere. He forced Mr. Quintin to give up!”
Ida was filled with indignation.
“I think so too, so I shouted like a madman, hoping that Mr. Quintin could give me an
answer. I really can’t help but think about that when he suddenly disappears like this.”
Shirley closed her eyes and said painfully.
“In fact, I think that since things have come to this, you might as well treat Mr. Quintin
as a non-existent person. He will guide you and your ex-husband to get back together.
Then you can live peacefully with your ex-husband now. After all, your ex-husband is
the biological father of the child. No matter how good an outsider is, they cannot be
better than the biological father. Don’t be too stubborn for the sake of the child.”
Ida stood from an outsider’s point of view and sincerely advised Shirley.
“Everyone thinks that for the sake of the child, I should get back together with that
guy. In fact, I have thought about it myself. For the sake of the child, I should get back
together with that guy. But that means I will be entangled with him for the rest of my
life. Think about it… To play the so- called ‘sweet couple’ with someone who has hurt
you and run the so-called ‘happy family’. Don’t you feel disgusted?”
“I can understand because my man is also a scum. In order to be with the mistress,
he abandoned me and my son. My son was seriously ill, but he did not care about it.
He was busy being happy with the mistress and busy celebrating the birthday of his
new son…”
Ida recalled her painful past. She gritted her teeth tightly and said with hatred in her
eyes, “Sometimes I really can’t understand why bad people are so carefree and leave
