When she unveils identities novel (Shirley and Braden) novel Chapter 560

Chapter 560 “Are You Secretly in Love with Mr. Stewart?”

With such suspicions in mind, Braden deliberately went to the hospital cafeteria during dinner.

“I’d like a bowl of seafood wonton.” He said to the staff behind the counter.

“???”

The staff looked completely puzzled.

“Seafood wonton, don’t you have it?”

Braden emphasized once again in French to the person.

“We don’t have it.”

The staff stared at him with a dumbfounded expression and pointed to the menu, saying, “All the food is listed on the menu. Order whatever you want.”

Braden quickly scanned the menu with his eyes and indeed found only Western dishes. There was no trace of any Eastern food, let alone seafood wonton.

So, was the nurse lying?

Braden returned to the main building and found the nurse who had been delivering wontons to him every day.

“I think we should talk.” He said to her.

The nurse became a little nervous and her expression extremely unnatural, “Mr. Stewart, what do you want to talk to me about?”

“You know what I want to talk to you about.”

“I don’t know anything. I don’t know anything at all.”

The nurse shook her head, pretending to be oblivious like an ostrich.

Of course, she knew exactly what Braden wanted to ask her. He definitely wanted to know who had been sending the wontons. However, she had promised Shirley to keep this secret, as if she had made an oath to God. So… she couldn’t confess.

“If you tell me honestly where the wontons come from, I’ll give you a generous reward,” Braden said, hands in his pockets, acting like a savvy businessman.

“No!”

The nurse continued shaking her head, “I swore to God, I can’t tell you.’

“That’s fine. Just donate more money to God, and He will forgive you.”

“I’m guilty, I’m guilty. Please don’t ask me. I won’t tell you.”

The nurse made the sign of the cross on her chest and quickly ran away.

In the hallway, she found Shirley blowing smoke rings and urgently said, “Hey, I finally found you. I’m really sorry, but I can’t help you anymore.”

“What’s wrong?”

Shirley remained calm and blew a beautiful smoke ring.

“Mr. Stewart and Ms. Gilmore are suspicious about the seafood wontons you’ve been sending, especially Ms. Gilmore. She suspects that I made them specifically for Mr. Stewart to seduce him. Either you confess to them or stop sending the wontons.”

The nurse sincerely advised her.

“Alright, then I won’t send them anymore.”

Shirley was quite nonchalant about it.

After all, Alina was no longer in danger, and she shouldn’t be so anxious that she couldn’t eat or sleep. Therefore, this bowl of seafood wonton no longer held any significance.

“But by the way, Shirley… do you know them? What’s your relationship with them? Could it be that you secretly have a crush on Mr. Stewart?”

The nurse couldn’t help but gossip.

“How could that be!”

Shirley firmly denied, “I just thought that we’re all Oriental people, and his fiancee had an accident. He’s so worried that he can’t even eat properly. I just wanted to give him some hometown flavors and stimulate his appetite.”

“I see…”

The nurse nodded thoughtfully, “That’s true. If you secretly love him, what about Antwan? Mr. Stewart can have whatever he wants, but Antwan only has you. If you leave, it would be so unfair to Antwan.”

“So, I won’t leave.”
