Chapter 335 Only Women Can See Through Such Schemes
Shirley’s beautiful face was as cold as ice. She said without any emotion, “What does his life have
I
to do with me? During my most difficult days, when did he care about how I felt? When did he care
about how I was doing?”
“Well…”
Keith felt guilty and lowered his head.
In those few years, Braden had gone too far. He cheated on Shirley and forced her to leave. He was
frigid, but he was in deep love with a goody-two-shoes like Amelie.
No matter how much love and affection Shirley had for him, it was already washed away by time.
If Keith persuaded Shirley to give Braden a chance, wouldn’t he make things worse?
“So, I will tell you again. Braden and I have nothing to do with each other, and we’ll never get back
together. Please tell your friends and ask them not to joke around. If this happens again, I will turn
hostile, and I won’t care who you guys are.”
Shirley’s expression was serious as she emphasized this to Keith.
Keith nodded. “Alright, I know what you’re thinking. From now on, my friends and I will pay
attention…”
As the two were chatting, Braden’s other friends let out excited and terrified voices.
“It can’t be. Alina is so well-informed. She came here so quickly!”
“She’s ill-tempered. If she knows that we didn’t ask her to join the party, the consequences will be
serious. Why don’t we leave…”
“What are you afraid of? With Karen and Braden here, she doesn’t dare to be rash!”
Hearing this, Keith also showed a look of fear. He looked around and said, “It’s over! Even Alina is
here. We’ll be dead meat for this barbeque!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShirley was confused. She couldn’t help but be interested. She curiously asked Keith, “Who is Alina?
How can you rich guys be so scared of her?”
“You don’t know her?”
Keith seemed to have put up with Alina for a long time, and he began to complain like crazy, “Alina
is the only daughter of the Gilmore family. She grew up with us. Her name suggests that she’s
sweet, but she is actually a wild woman. Except for Karen and Braden, none of us escaped from
her beating, so we all called her a demon….
“But it’s reasonable that you don’t know her because she was sent abroad by her father to study a few
years ago. She returned last year. Unfortunately, the result of her study was scary. I feel that she is more
valiant than when she was a child and has become more like a man!”
“Keith, say that again!”
As Keith spoke, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
He turned his head and saw Alina’s smiling eyes. He almost lost his soul due to the scare. “Alina…”
“Tell me Alina put her hands on her hips and patted Keith’s head as if she was touching a puppy. the
truth. Who started this party? Why didn’t you invite me? Did you set a group chat without me in
it?”
1. L…”
Keith was rarely timid like this. He just stuttered.
Then, he had a brainwave and pointed at Shirley. “Shirley started the party. I don’t know anything. If you
want to know anything, just ask her.”
Shirley was confused.
She stared at Keith speechlessly.
Damn! At the critical moment, he made her take the blame. She was just a rubberneck. What did it
have to do with her?
“You are Shirley, the one who has been pestering my Braden?”
Alina looked at Shirley condescendingly, and her expression was overbearing. She was not a person
who could be offended.
Her confidence was based on her family.
Although the Gilmore family was not one of the top eight families in Seatle City, their power was not to be
underestimated. Their wealth was immeasurable, and they could be on par with big
families like the Stewart family and the Whelan family.
But Shirley also looked like she couldn’t be provoked.
However, her confidence was based on herself.
The look in Shirley’s eyes was mischievous “Your Braden?”
Euch Schemes
Alina rolled her eyes. “Of course. Do you know that Braden and I have known each other since we were
young? We were born on the same day. I was one hour older than him, so he is my younger brother. We
recognized each other as siblings a long time ago…”
“So?”
Shirley was calm. She did not understand what Alina wanted to say,
“So, I’m warning you, stay away from Braden. You have divorced. I won’t allow you to have any designs
on him!”
Alina shouted fiercely.
“I see. As the older sister, you are so good to your younger brother!”
Shirley said with a forced smile. She sized up Alina.
Alina looked manly and wore casual clothes. She was outgoing. She seemed to be straightforward, but
her words contained schemes of all kinds.
Only women could see through such schemes.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward. Keith had to bite the bullet and smooth things over.
“Alright, alright. You two don’t have to be so aggressive. In my opinion, your personalities are quite
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsimilar. I believe that you will become good friends…
“Shirley, don’t take it to heart. Alina has always been like this. Her words are always harsh, and she will
argue with anyone she sees. In fact, she doesn’t have any ill intentions. Just treat her as an
untactful man!”
Alina jumped in anger after hearing this and chased after Keith to beat him.
“Say that again! You’re the untactful man. If I don’t hit you to death today, I’ll eat my hat!*
The two were like primary school students fighting against each other with Shirley in the center.
At this time, Braden seemed to have a screw loose and walked over to them.
Shirley could sense that Alina, who had been fierce just now, suddenly changed her expression. Her
eyes were full of affection.
How could Shirley not understand such feelings? Alina liked Braden very much!
No wonder Alina looked at Shirley with hostility. She looked like she was going to kill Shirley. It turned out
that she treated Shirley as a love rival
“Braden, how can you do this!”
Alina threw herself into Braden’s arms happily. She wrapped her arms around Braden’s neck and said
intimately, “How can you go to a party without me? Do you treat me as your sister?”
Braden had a rare smile and patted Alina’s back. He seemed to pamper her. “Sorry. I was not
considerate enough.”
“Do you think an apology is enough? How can you be my younger brother like this?”
“Then, what do you want me to do to cool you down?”
Alina didn’t let go of Braden and said fiercely, “Go make me some skewers. Otherwise, I will never
care about you.”
“Okay.”
Braden nodded in agreement.
“That’s more like it!”
Thus, Alina held Braden’s hand and happily walked to the grill.
At the same time, she glanced at Shirley with provocation and pride flashing across her face…
