When she unveils identities novel (Shirley and Braden) novel Chapter 505

Chapter 505 The Murderer

Cordell noticed Shirley’s panicked reaction and patted her shoulder. “Don’t worry, you’re one of Nancy’s friends. If anything happens to you, Nancy will be unhappy too, so I won’t say anything rashly.”

Shirley’s eyes were complicated, and she took a deep breath, looking seriously at the man. “You have to keep this secret, not telling anyone. As for the mistake I made, when the time is right, I will make amends.”

“Ms. Wilson, you don’t need to promise me anything. Amelie brought this upon herself. I don’t think you did anything wrong. Let’s just pretend that this never happened and keep it a secret between us.”

Cordell touched on the topic briefly, his eyes filled with coldness and determination.

Shirley didn’t doubt Cordell’s honesty because this kind of indifferent expression could only come from someone who was truly cold-hearted.

However, she became more confused. Did men become so cold and ruthless after changing their hearts?

Remember, Amelie was Cordell’s unattainable love, the one he was willing to deceive Nancy for and become a scoundrel!

“Cordell, I don’t understand you. Isn’t Amelie your true love? You know her death is related to me, but why are you so calm? Not only do you not seek revenge, but you’re even willing to help me cover it up?”

Shirley hesitated for a long time before asking Cordell this question. She wasn’t afraid that Cordell was playing a trick. After all, this matter was her own burden to bear, and it couldn’t be hidden forever.

If he wanted to call the police or blackmail her, she was prepared to face it.

“What true love? It’s just an obsession with someone I couldn’t have…”

Cordell narrowed his eyes and said with emotion, “Amelie did many malicious things.

She brought her fate upon herself. You were just serving justice; there’s no need for you to feel guilty.”

“Believe it or not, I never intended to kill her. It was all an accident. But if I could go back in time, I would still do the same. I won’t let her hurt Nancy, and I won’t let her target my two children!”

Shirley’s emotions began to spiral out of control.

Recalling that stormy night, her heart tightened, and her expression was full of pain.

This incident had happened three months earlier.

After being missing for a long time, Amelie suddenly contacted her with a strange number, requesting to meet and have a good talk.

Originally, Shirley didn’t want to have anything to do with this woman anymore.

After all, they were both victims of the grudges from the past, and continuing to entangle would only result in mutual destruction with no purpose.

However, this malicious and insane woman actually sent her a video.

The video was precisely of Nancy and Cordell having sex in their bedroom.

“If you don’t come, I’ll immediately post this video online, and your best friend will lose face and never be able to live it down!”

Amelie used this as blackmail, demanding that Shirley meet with her at a remote cliff on Saipan.
