Chapter 323 Fall in Love Again
Tracy leaned on the door and listened. Her expression was a little complicated. “Something is
wrong. Why is my son screaming now? And he screams more miserably. Is Shirley beating him
up?”
Molly said, “How could that be? Mrs. Stewart is elegant and gentle. She speaks softly. As a refined
noble lady, she won’t do such a violent thing.”
“You don’t know her well and were deceived by her gentleness. In fact, she’s very rough, quite like
me when I was young…”
“Then, you have less reason to worry. I can only say that Mrs. Stewart has a technique to deal with
Mr. Stewart. Heehee… I didn’t expect to see this side of Mr. Stewart. I’m too embarrassed to hear
it.”
Molly imagined the scene inside and couldn’t help but cover her face with embarrassment.
“You’re right. This should be called a technique of dealing with the husband!”
Tracy was enlightened and praised, “Shirley is amazing. She is even excellent at this. How perfect.
It seems that my wish to have a grandson will soon be fulfilled.”
Tracy and Molly finally left.
After a while, power was back on in the villa. The study was as bright as day.
It was sooner than Braden and Shirley had thought.
So, the two of them were still in a very ambiguous position. Held in Braden’s arms and facing his chest,
Shirley was tickling him…
The light was like a pause button, causing all the “madness” to stop.
“Um, it looks like we don’t have to act anymore.”
Shirley tidied her hair and got off Braden awkwardly.
Braden seemed a little embarrassed. He held his breath and said softly. “I think so.”
Shirley went to the door. It opened easily.
She heaved a sigh of relief and turned to Braden. “It was a misunderstanding today. Sorry to disturb
you.”
“What misunderstanding?”
Chapter 323 Fall in Love Again
Looking at her back, Braden said in a strong and playful tone, “You haven’t told me who you’re
looking for.”
“No one.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShirley refused to tell him.
From May’s text message, it was clear that Braden hadn’t taken the two children away. This meant
that the Stewart family, including Braden, didn’t know about the existence of the children.
“You came for a reason, didn’t you?”
“Reason…”
Shirley racked her brains and then said sarcastically, “I came to see whether you are dead or not.
After all, you have been cremated, and the cemetery has been chosen. It’s possible that you did
suddenly die!”
Braden was not angry. He crossed his arms and leaned lazily against the door frame. He teased, “You’re
happy and relieved to see I’m safe and sound, right?”
“Bah!”
Shirley turned around and rolled her eyes at him. “That’s bullshit… I won’t flinch. Since you are still
alive, our battle has just begun.”
When Shirley went downstairs, she found Howard still sitting on the sofa, pretending to read a
newspaper.
“Mr. Stewart, did you participate in it just now?”
Shirley walked up to him with a straight face and asked seriously.
“Participate in what? I was reading a newspaper. I don’t know anything.”
“Keep pretending. The electricity was off for so long just now. How could you read a newspaper?
Besides, you suck at pretending. The newspaper is upside down.”
Shirley was helpless and couldn’t bear to point it out.
“Um…”
Only then did Howard realize that he was holding the newspaper upside down. He could only say, “I
have dim eyesight. I’m used to reading words backward. I can see them more clearly.”
“Is that so? Do you think I believe it?”

Shirley was originally mad. Seeing Howard like this, she found him adorable and couldn’t help but
laugh.
The old man put down the newspaper and whispered, “Shirley, don’t blame us for what we did. We truly
want you to come back…
“But you two’s acting is as bad as mine. You can fool my stupid daughter-in-law. You can’t fool me.”
Howard’s eyes might be old and full of wrinkles, but he was smarter and sharper than many young,
strong people.
When Shirley saw that Howard had made everything clear, she directly said, “Mr. Stewart, you were
married before. You should know what’s essential for a marriage. In the past, I loved Braden very much,
but after so many years, my feelings for him are like snowflakes under the sun, long gone. I believe it’s
the same for Braden. He no longer has feelings for me. How can two people not in love
get married?”
“No, you don’t know Braden well, and you don’t know yourself. You two are still in love, but…”
“Mr. Stewart, say no more. I’ve made my point clear. Please tell Mrs. Stewart that if something like this
happens again, don’t blame me for not caring about seniority and turning hostile.”
After speaking coldly, Shirley left without looking back.
That was how she was. Once making a decision, she never turned back, even if she regretted it.
Moreover, she never regretted it!
After Shirley left, Howard sat in the living room and sighed repeatedly.
He glanced at the corner of the stairs and said in frustration, “She’s gone. Why are you still hiding?
Come out!”
Braden walked out with a long face. He seemed very unhappy.
“You heard what Shirley said, right?”
“Yes.”
“You’re regretful, aren’t you? She doesn’t have any intention of getting back together with you. You were
stubborn back then. How can you have the shame to change her mind now?”
“Who said I was going to change her mind?”
Braden put his hands in his pockets, looking proud and unruly.
“What do you mean? Are you giving up? Are you willing to let her go? Have you forgotten how you

cried every night in the past four years?”
Braden was embarrassed to hear Howard’s mockery. He curled his lips and said, “Grandpa, I’m solemnly
telling you this. Stop talking about me crying. I didn’t cry for her. I cried because I watched a tragic movie.
You and my mom must stop ruining my image!”
“What can I say about you? There’s nothing embarrassing about crying for a woman. I cried when I
chased your grandma. So did your dad when he chased your mom. If I were you, I would have knelt

With an unfathomable look in his eyes, Braden said meaningfully, “Love isn’t something one can beg for.
Since she doesn’t love me anymore, the only way is to make her fall in love with me again!”

When Shirley returned to her apartment, it was late. The two children had gone to sleep.
May heard the noise and came out wearing pajamas and a coat.
“Ms. Wilson, where did you go? The kids waited for you to come back the whole night, but they
didn’t see you.”
“Um, I went to the Stewart’s home to find them. It turned out to be a misunderstanding. Braden
and the other Stewart family didn’t know about Bennett and Alisha’s existence. We overthought.”
Shirley smiled awkwardly.
Thinking about what happened tonight, she blushed.
“It was indeed a misunderstanding. The kids said you know the man who picked them up. It was
Mr. Quintin wearing a mask who you took to Sunflower Island a few days ago. Doesn’t he see
Alisha as his own daughter? That was why Alisha happily left with him.”
May told Shirley everything she heard from the kids. She said with a relieved smile, “Mr. Quintin is
really a good person. The two children like him very much. He is also very good to them, better
than many biological fathers.”
“It was him!”
Shirley subconsciously frowned and said angrily, “What was he up to? First, he took my daughter.
This time, he took both of my kids. He went too far. I must warn him so he’ll behave.”
“Ms. Wilson, there’s no need. Mr. Quintin is really nice. Bennett says he is the famous chef in Seatle
City. He knows that you and the kids like to eat the cakes he made. So, he took the kids to teach
them how to make the cakes. Wait… The three of them worked together to make a cake for you.
It’s in the fridge. I will get it for you.”
May went to the fridge in the dining room and brought over a six-inch cake.
It was a mousse cake in the shape of a sunflower, which was Shirley’s favorite. In the middle of the
cake were words written with cream by the three of them. It went, “Dear Mom, happy forever!”
Only then did Shirley realize it’d be her birthday in a few days.
The kids were so considerate. Her eyes became moist. “Hey, the kids are clever. I intended to
teach them a lesson. How do I have the heart to do it now?”
“Ms. Wilson, have a taste. The kids say they have a bigger surprise for you on your birthday!”
