Chapter 337 You Can’t Win His Heart
Keith was a little embarrassed and was about to explain it.
But Shirley looked relaxed. She nodded and said, “Of course. Mr. Guerra and I are good friends. We
have the same views and hobbies, so we have a harmonious relationship!”
Braden was speechless.
Braden’s eyes turned cold, and he pursed his lips in silence.
Alina stood up and pointed at Shirley. She said righteously, “Ms. Wilson, I hope you don’t think what
I’m going to say is offensive. We are both women. We can be heartless, but we can’t be
shameless. Don’t you think you are acting like a bitch? Shame on you!”
“Oh? What do you mean?”
Shirley almost laughed in her exasperation.
Alina was scheming. Shirley had not yet exposed her hypocritical nature, but she criticized Shirley
first.
Alina was a ruthless girl that couldn’t be underestimated!
“I saw that you and Keith were very close to each other. What’s your relationship with him? If you are
dating, what about Braden?
“Do you
know that Keith has a girlfriend? If you are with him, you will be a shameless mistress. You
just don’t know where to stop!”
Alina stood on the moral high ground and said something harsh.
“Alina, actually..
Keith felt that Alina went too far, and he wanted to clarify it.
However, Shirley looked indifferent and asked with a faint smile, “Why made you say that Keith and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI were together?”
“Come on. You two were so close. Keith put his hand on your shoulder, and you talked
cheek-to-cheek. I dare say you are dating!”
Alina deliberately framed Shirley rudely. Others could not find anything wrong with what she said.
Braden flipped the skewers as he said coldly. “If you are, just admit it. Don’t try to cover it up and
make it seem like you have an affair.”
Shirley was calm. She put her arm around Keith’s shoulder and smiled, “Who told you that we are
dating? We are intimate friends, you know?”
Alina snorted and said, “Come on. Men and women won’t be in a platonic relationship. Your body
movement has explained everything…”
“Is that so?”
Shirley’s eyes fell on Alina.
Intentionally or unintentionally, Alina got close to Braden. The two looked very intimate.
Shirley smiled, “So you and my ex-husband are also dating. Look at you. You are more intimate
than me and Keith!”
“Don’t talk nonsense!”
Alina did not expect that she would shoot herself in the foot. Her face instantly turned red, and she said
angrily, “Braden and I are like brothers. We are different from you!”
“As I said, Keith and I are good friends. Why are we different?”
“You…”
Alina was speechless.
Alina thought that Shirley was a poor, weak lady who should be easy to deal with.
But today, Alina realized that she had underestimated Shirley. Instead of framing Shirley, she had instead
put herself in a passive position.
Helpless, Alina had no choice but to punch Braden gently. She said angrily, “Braden, your ex-wife is
absolutely unreasonable. I can’t afford to offend her!”
Braden said coldly, “Don’t lower yourself to her level.”
The moment turned awkward. Keith tried to smooth things over.
“Alright, alright, I solemnly declare that Shirley and I are just friends. We don’t have an affair. As for
Braden and Alina, they have a pure relationship. Alice and I have not formalized our relationship yet, so
all of us are single and can like anyone!
“As we get together today, we should enjoy ourselves. Don’t be so sarcastic. That’s childish. If you agree,
let’s get fist burnps and make peace, okay?”
After Keith finished speaking, he stretched out his fist

Alina was the first to respond and bumped into Keith’s fist.
If Alina continued to target Shirley, others would think she was narrow-minded.
Therefore, Alina planned to change her way.
“It’s just a misunderstanding. Ms. Wilson, I am really sorry for being rude just now…
“I like to talk straight. Since you are Keith’s confidant, you are also a friend of mine!”
Alina said to Shirley kindly, looking very generous.
Shirley raised her eyebrows, reached out her hand, and bumped into their fists. “Okay. Good
company on the road is the shortest cut. I’d like to make friends with you.”
When it was Braden’s turn, he coldly said, “Boring.” Then he stood up and left.
The other three looked at each other.
Keith said, “Leave him alone. He may be in a bad mood.
Alina clenched her fist and said, “He is arrogant and rude.”
Shirley shrugged indifferently. “It’s who he is.”

Alina looked at Keith. “How about this? You go and chat with them. Ms. Wilson and I will stay to roast
skewers. No discord, no concord. I’m sure we will become good friends!”
“Okay. I also hope that the two of you can become friends. This way, we will have one more girl in
our group.
Keith patted Shirley on the shoulder and said, “Don’t worry. Alina may seem fierce, but she’s very easy to
get along with. You two can talk about everything!”
Then, in the barbecue area, only Shirley and Alina were left.
There was no one else around, so Alina did not bother to pretend. She smashed the skewers on the grill
and coldly looked at Shirley. “Why did you come back after you left? Don’t you know your
existence is very annoying?”
Shirley was not surprised at Alina’s sudden change of attitude. She looked at the burning charcoal and
said calmly, “As I said, Keith and I are soulmates. I didn’t want to embarrass him, so I chose to
stay”
“Humph, stop pretending. You know that’s not what I’m talking about!”
Alina said angrily.
Shirley was slightly stunned. Then, she knew what Alina meant.
“There is something I can’t let go of in Seatle City, so I came back.”
Shirley replied honestly.
“Humph, something you can’t let go of? Do you mean Braden?”
Alina glared at Shirley fiercely. “You were kicked out of Braden’s house four years ago. Do you think that
you can win his heart four years later? You should know very well that you are not worthy of
him!”
“I don’t know if I can win his heart, but I’m sure that even if I can’t, you can’t either…”
“Shut up!”
Alina was driven mad by Shirley.
Alina knocked over the grill burning with charcoal, and the extremely hot charcoal fell on them….
