When She Unveils Identities By Zaylee CortéZ Chapter 124


    Chapter 124 She Is the Wild One


    Shirley was so embarrassed that she dropped the puff on her hand, and her face and her neck went


    reddish


    She thought, what’s wrong with Braden? What the heck is he talking about?


    Braden seemed calm and even serious. He looked at Shirley solemnly. “After all, you said so when you


    bit my lipsst night.”


    Keith coughed a few times and reminded Braden, “Braden, it’s still broad daylight. It’s a bit early to talk


    about such things, don’t you think?”


    Karen smiled and echoed, “Maybe Braden and Ms. Wilson shared a wild night.”


    ”


    Braden spread his hands and said casually, “She was the wild one. I was the victim.”


    “Braden!”


    Shirley felt utterly embarrassed. She wished she could get under the car and nevere out.

    She wanted to refute him badly, but she couldn’t.


    After all, Braden had solid proof. Once he yed the video from the driving recorder publicly, she


    would be doomed.


    She thought, forget it. I’ll suffer for now. I don’t bother arguing with Braden.


    After making up her mind, Shirley closed her eyes, leaned against the window, and wanted to fall


    asleep.


    Perhapsst night was too exhausting. Anyway, Shirley did fall asleep.


    In a daze, she vaguely felt that her body was moved gently by a pair of big hands, and then her head.


    rested on some man’s broad shoulders, which were warm and made her feel secure.


    Braden lowered his head and looked affectionately at the woman who was sleeping soundly while


    leaning against his shoulders. There was a gentleness in his eyes that even he did not notice.


    There was still some cream left on the corner of Shirley’s mouth, making her look like a child. Unlike


    when she was awake, now she wasn’t aggressive. Instead, she looked so innocent and cute, melting


    his heart.


    Braden felt that his heart softened uncontrobly. He took out the pocket square that was in his suit


    pocket and gently wiped the cream on the corner of her mouth. His action was so gentle as if she were


    his daughter.


    “Tsk, tsk, tsk!”


    Keith looked gossipy. ncing at the rearview mirror, he said, “Braden, I was still skeptical back then.


    Now I’m convinced that you have indeed fallen for her.”


    Braden realized that he seemed to be a bit too “considerate” to Shirley. He immediately put away the


    pocket square and said coldly, “Don’t talk nonsense. I am just a clean freak.”


    “You are a clean freak?”


    Keith continued, teasing, “There is something on the corner of my mouth as well. Why don’t you wipe


    my mouth?”


    Braden didn’t know how to retort. He took another puff and handed it to Karen. “Stuff it in his


    mouth!”


    Karen smiled gently. He inadvertently looked at Braden and Shirley, who were leaning against each


    other, with envy in his eyes.


    “Braden, I can tell that Ms. Wilson means something very special to you. There’s no shame in it,


    and you don’t have to deny it.


    “On the contrary, I envy you a lot… How lucky it is to have someone you care about in this vast


    world.”


    It was normal to hear those words from others, but not from a groom.


    Braden frowned and asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”


    Karen shook his head. “Nothing. I’m just a bit emotional. Both men and women get to be happy as


    long as they can marry their loved ones. Yet it’s not easy to have such a happy ending. So, one should


    always cherish it when they meet the love of their lives…”


    Keith said disapprovingly as he drove, “Karen,e on. Cherry and you are the perfect example of a


    happy couple. Why do you envy others for what you own?”


    Karen smiled bitterly and didn’t answer.


    Soon, the motorcade picking the bride up arrived at the hotel where the bride was staying.


    Although the Whn family was powerful, they had always kept a low profile, so the wedding was not


    particrly grand.


    The wedding was no different from that of an ordinary family.


    The first part, ording to the n, was to make a few breakthroughs to win the bride.


    Cherry was from a family full of schrs. Her parents were professors at famous universities, so the


    breakthroughs were rted to cultures.


    Those from the groom’s side needed to make eighteen breakthroughs before they were allowed to


    go to the room where the bride was and pick up the bride.


    These eighteen breakthroughs contained all kinds of content, such as physical force, mathematics,


    literature, history, philosophy, and so on.


    The first puzzle had to do with literature, which required someone from the groom’s side to recite a


    famous poem.


    The poem was a heartfelt celebration of love, thousands of lines long.


    There were more than a dozen men from the groom’s side, and all of them were tall, handsome rich


    young men from prestigious families. Moreover, their academic qualifications were nothing but


    outstanding, and almost all of them had overseas study backgrounds.


    Yet right now, they all looked at each other, their minds nk.


    None of them was able to recite the poem.


    “No one is up for it. Right?”


    Those from the bride’s side were gloating. They said, “You may pass by paying money. So thousand


    dors is the minimum.”


    “No problem! We’ll transfer the money right away!”


    Keith took out his phone and said eagerly, “Why don’t you say so earlier? If it could be solved with


    money, why waste our time?”


    “Wait a second.”


    Shirley stood out and said, “I can recite the poem.”


    Then she started.


    She recited each word in a clear voice.


    Everyone looked at her in disbelief.


    Keith whispered, “I thought she was just joking. And it turns out that she wasn’t! I am starting to


    admire her.”


    Braden was not surprised. He said calmly and a bit proudly, “Well, that’s not surprising. I told you


    earlier that she was a straight–A student.”


    After more than ten minutes, Shirley finally finished reciting the poem, and the crowd apuded her


    warmly.


    “Impressive!”


    Those from the bride’s side praised, “We’ve long heard that those from the Whn family are


    talented. You are not ordinary people who know nothing but fighting for power and money. Ma’am, you


    are something.”


    Shirley humbly waved her hand. “It’s nothing. I just happen to like reading poems…”


    She thought, this is nothing. I can recite a lot more poems that are longer than this one.


    The groom, along with hispanions, sessfully made the first breakthrough.


    “Ms. Wilson, thanks. You impress me again.”


    Karen thanked Shirley, and there was a look of amazement in his eyes that was almost imperceptible.


    Shirley joked, “No need to thank me. You may just transfer 80 thousand dors to me.”


    “No problem.”


    Karen agreed at once. He took out his phone and said, “Tell me your bank ount number.”


    Shirley didn’t refuse. In the next second, 80 thousand dors were transferred to her ount.


    She instantly felt that today’s wedding was so worth it!


    The remaining seventeen breakthroughs were simr to the first one, and most of the puzzles were


    solved by Shirley.


    She was busy receiving transferred money, and she was overjoyed.


    Finally, it was thest breakthrough, where they had to make the bride open the door.


    No matter what they said, the door was still closed. Nothing changed, even though the groom Karen


    stepped out.


    Shirley shrugged, indicating that there was nothing she could do.


    Then Keith gave Braden a gentle push and said, “Braden, why don’t you … give it a go?”
