When She Unveils Identities By Zaylee CortéZ Chapter 88
Chapter 88 Feeling Secure Like Staying With Her Father
Braden didn’t reply. Instead, he looked all around the vi.
“Theyout of this vi is not good. The hall is too small, the dome is not big enough, and the stairs are
too steep. You need topletely modify them.
“The decoration style is too archaic. I wonder if your vi is a fossil from the Jurassic period.
“The stone pirs in your corridor are not exquisite enough. You’d better re–carve them.
”
Braden pointed out all the ws of the vi in an arrogant manner.
Shirley was confused.
What was wrong with this guy? He really made himself at home!
“Braden, don’t you have some work to do? When did you take a part–time job in interior decoration?
Stop telling me how to decorate my house.”
Braden stood in the middle of the living room, admiring a painting hanging on the wall. He turned a deaf
ear to Shirley’s sarcasm.
“This painting is great. It should be Gustav Klimt’s Portrait of Adele Bloch–Bauer I. If it is an authentic
work, it should be very precious.”
Shirley was surprised by Braden’s sharp eyes.
She had always thought that this guy was just a businessman whose only concern was money. She did
not expect that he had studied art in depth.
This painting was indeed the most valuable thing in the entire vi. However, ordinary people did not
know its value. Therefore, even though the Wilson’s vi had been robbed by several groups of
people, in the end, this painting was preserved.
This painting was her father’s favorite. It had always been hanging here. Every time Shirley saw it,
she would think of her father.
Strangely, when she looked at Braden’s tall and straight back, she felt secure, as if her father was
staying with her.
It was as if Braden was a silent mountain. As long as he was here, she would be safe. Even if the sky
fell, he would protect her.
Shirley thought, it’s lunacy! Shirley, you’ve lost your mind!
May, who was at the side, looked at Shirley and then at Braden. She could not help but smile.
Γ
the Fa* yer
This was the first time she met Braden in person. Seemingly, he was quite different from the “cold–
blooded, heartless man” described by Shirley!
After all, judging from the fact that he saved Shirley without hesitation and the way he looked at her, he
was not as inhuman as Shirley mentioned.
May thought that there might be some misunderstanding between the two of them that led to the
divorce.
“Are you done? You can leave now!”
Shirley bluntly asked him to leave.

Although she didn’t know why Braden suddenly came over, definitely, he was up to no good, so she’d
better drive him away as soon as possible.
May said, “Ms. Wilson, don’t be so rude. Mr. Stewart is our guest. He just saved us. No matter what, we
have to treat him to a meal.
“Mr. Stewart, it’s noon. Please stay for lunch. What do you like? I’m a good cook. I can make French
food, Spanish food, and even Mexican food. I can also cook some Thai food. Just tell me what you
want to eat.”
Braden turned around and looked at May. Then he didn’t seem to be restra.ned. He started to order
wantonly, “I like French food. Do you know how to cook beef bourguignon? I prefer French onion. soup.
Don’t get it too thick…”
When Shirley heard this, she clenched her fists.
“Braden, that’s enough! Where do you think you are now? A resta: rant? How dare you order
dishes!”
Shirley couldn’t help but wave her hands to drive him away as if he was a duck. “Go, go. You are not
wee here. I’m going to close the door!”
Braden remained unmoved and said coldly, “I don’t need you to wee me.”
Then he turned to look at May and said confidently, “May wees me.”
May was slightly surprised. She didn’t expect that Braden, who was said to be distant and hard to
get along with, could be that childish. She immediately said, “Yes, yes, yes. I wee you. Though
you’re divorced, you have protected Ms. Wilson for so many years. Today I will make you a big
feast!”
With that, May went to the kitchen with the ingredients she bought, leaving Shirley and Braden on
the spot. They looked at each other, feeling extremely awkward…
However, Shirley found that she was the only one who felt embarrassed.
Π
He deeply interpreted the sentence, “As long as you are not embarrassed, the one who feels
embarrassed is someone else.”
The entire hall was smashed into a mess by Cayden and his men. The sofa was the only intact thing in
the house
Braden sat elegantly on the sofa, his long legs crossed, as he asked Shirley indifferently. “Did you get
used to living here?”
“What are you talking about? This is my home How can I not get used to living here“:
Shirley looked around andughed at herself “After wandering for four years, I finally returned home. I
have to say that it’sfortable to stay in my own home!”
Braden’s face darkened and he said in a low voice, “As you said, you’re entitled to half of our house If
you want to go back, you can move back at any time. That is also your home”
Hearing what he said, Shirley thought that she must have some hearing problems. The smile on her
beautiful face disappeared to be reced by a scornful expression.
“Braden, don’t you think it’s too hypocritical to say this now? When you asked me to move out
overnight just to make room for your lover, you were not that gentle
Nothing was cheaper than overdue love. Moreover, Braden didn’t change his mind at all. On the
contrary, he wanted something from her.
Shirley could vaguely guess why Braden was looking for her, but she just didn’t mention it. She just
wanted to see him anxious!
“What I did before was indeed inappropriate. I didn’t expect Amelie to be so unreasonable.”
A hint of disgust rose in Braden’s eyes.
His impression of Amelie wasn’t ster the first time he met her.
Although Amelie looked delicate and harmless, her eyes were too deep and filled with nasty thoughts.
Shirley was different. Her eyes were bright and clear, like a limpid spring flowing in a quiet mountain
valley. There were no impurities in her eyes.
Braden had to admit that when he looked into Shirley’s eyes, his heart would race sometimes.
“If I knew that she would make a mess of my house, I wouldn’t have allowed her to step in.”
Although Braden didn’t go back home often, he liked the patch of sunflowers in the garden.
However, the sunflowers had all been plucked out and reced with tacky roses
Not only the sunflowers, but all traces of Shirley had been cleaned up, which made him feel
inexplicably ufortable.
“Well, so what?”
Shirley no longer had the patience to y dumb with Braden. She directly pointed out Braden’s
thoughts and said coldly, “Even if you know that your lover is so unbearable, you stille to me to
plead for her, don’t you?
“You are the mighty president who stands above everything. For a woman, youe to curry favor
with your ex–wife. If this is not true love, what is it?”
Braden was surprised by Shirley’s intelligence. He sighed and said, “That’s right. I came here today for
Amelie.”
Braden paused for a moment and said frankly, “She was too frightened that day. Now she is still lying in
the hospital just to be safe. I hope you can dismiss your indictment.”
Sure enough!
Just as she had thought, he really came for Amelie.
Shirley could not help but feel a bit of pain.
Shirley took a deep breath and said, “She stole and destroyed my things. There are witnesses and
evidence. Why should I drop the case?”
In fact, with Braden’s power, it was easy to bail someone out.
Unfortunately, Shirley was even more ruthless. She consulted Jim’sw firm and petition the court,
leaving Braden no time to react.
No matter how influential Braden was, he couldn’t withhold due process ofw, so the only thing he
could do was to make Shirley drop the case.
Otherwise, once the court announced its verdict, Amelie might be put in jail!
Braden was no longer patient and looked annoyed. “Just tell me. What’s it going to take for you to let
her go?”
