When She Unveils Identities By Zaylee CortéZ Chapter 290


    Chapter 290 Busy Cooking


    Shirley spread out her hands and said with a helpless expression, “I’m very sorry. I can’t just show it


    here, but I can promise you that your boss will definitely like it. You might as well take a gamble. If he is


    happy, he might pay you more.”


    Irving raised his eyebrows and felt that the woman in front of him was interesting. She was brave and


    not an


    ordinary person.


    It seemed that Shirley might really have something good.


    “Fine. With your confidence, I will take a gamble. To be in our line of work, one must have the courage


    to gamble. I am very willing to introduce you to my boss, but…”


    The man’s gaze swept past Shirley and looked at the woman hiding behind her. He smiled and said,


    “Please don’t meddle in our business and hand her over to us.”


    Shirley turned around and nced at the trembling woman. She asked Irving, “If I hand her over to you,


    what


    will you do to her?”


    “I can’t tell you that. She has touched the ban of the Crimson Pawnshop. We have our own rules on


    how to


    deal with her.”


    After saying that, Irving looked coldly at the woman and said, “Ida, enough. It is time. Go back with us!”


    “No!”


    Ida held Shirley’s arm, her eyes red as she pleaded, “Don’t give me to them. I beg you, they won’t let


    me go. I can’t die. My son won’t be able to live if I die… I know that you are very powerful. I beg you to


    help me once!”


    Shirley let out a long sigh. Then, she pried the woman’s fingers off her arm one by one and said, “It’s


    not that I don’t want to help you. It’s just that you are indeed wrong. You stole their things, so it’s


    reasonable for them to want to go back. It’s their right to punish you. If I help you, it’s to help the evil…”


    The woman’s expression suddenly turned cold, and her tears immediately stopped like magic. She


    sneered, “No wonder you are the granddaughter of Jaida and Jason. You have sharp eyes. When did


    you find out that I


    was lying?”


    Shirley was very surprised that the woman actually knew her.


    However, if she did not know Shirley, she would not have asked a weak-looking woman like her for help


    at the Sutor Wharf where there were so many strong men.


    Irving also felt that it was strange. He asked in confusion, “That’s right. I haven’t said anything yet. How


    did you know that she stole the treasure of the Crimson Pawnshop?”


    Shirley looked at the woman and exined, “Because the wound on her head was obviously not


    caused by you guys She did it herself to gain my sympathy…”


    “Your people are all holding wooden sticks The wound on her forehead is obviously cut by a sharp


    de. In addition, the Crimson Pawnshop is famous for being rich. If you really want the treasure in her


    hands, you can buy it at a high price. It is not worth running around everywhere, shouting and losing


    your dignity…”


    Shirley added, “Therefore, there is only one answer. This woman stole something from the Crimson


    Pawnshop and exposed herself. Then, she chose to hurt herself, pretending to be innocent.”


    Shirley’s analysis was clear and logical. The surrounding people who were watching apuded and


    cheered.


    Ida knew that she could not argue anymore. She handed the treasure in her arms to Irving and


    sneered, “Mr. Rond, I have let you down. I failed you. Take me back. Whether you are gonna kill me


    or not, I will ept


    my fate.”


    Irving did not say anything and said to the men behind him, “Take her back to the pawn shop, lock her


    up in the water prison, and wait for Mr. Quintin’s order.”


    “Mr. Rond, I’m sorry!”


    Ida closed her eyes. Although she had a cold and beautiful face, it had experienced the passage of


    time and


    now she looked despairing.


    Shirley felt familiar with the feeling of exhaustion in Ida. This kind of exhaustion resonated among


    mothers.


    “Wait a minute!”


    Shirley called out to the person who was escorting Ida away.


    Ida looked at her indifferently and smiled bitterly, “You want to save me?”


    Shirley shook her head. “I don’t have that time, nor do I have the ability.”


    “Then what do you want to do?”


    “You said that you have a son. If something happens to you, your son will be an orphan. Is this a lie?”


    The woman’s smile became even more bitter. She said, “I am not lying. I do have a son. He is seriously


    ill and


    needs arge sum of money. That is why I stole from the Crimson Pawnshop and broke the rules. But


    my son


    is not a real orphan. He has a father…”


    “Good to hear that.”


    Shirley eased up a little.


    If Ida really died, her son wouldn’t be too miserable with a father around.


    “However, his father is already married to his mistress. Their son would be turning one in days. I’m


    afraid he won’t care about my son anymore.”


    “That’s…”

    Shirley felt bad again.


    Just as she was about to ask a few more questions, Irving coldly urged, “Enough! Take her away!”


    Under the ck-clothed man’s custody, Ida disappeared into the vast night. How she and her son


    would end up was unknown.


    Shirley unconsciously thought of Bet and Alisha…


    If she died, her two children would probably be like Ida’s son, drifting!


    “You think she is very miserable, don’t you?” Irving asked Shirley.


    He looked indifferent.


    “Just her son,” Shirley said.


    “What’s there to do? This is her own choice.”


    Irving said, “Her name is Ida. She has been divorced for more than three years. When her days were


    the most difficult, she almost couldn’t even get food. Coincidentally, I asked her to work in the Crimson


    Pawnshop. She is very talented at appraising. I wanted to train her as my student, but I didn’t know that


    she was an ungrateful thief. I’m so disappointed!”


    “Perhaps, she is really very difficult and has no other choice…” Shirley said.


    “No matter how difficult she is, she has vited the rules of the Crimson Pawnshop and will be


    punished. You know that in our line of work, the greatest taboo is that your own people steal. If the thief


    isn’t punished hard, it will be difficult to convince others!”


    Irving clenched his fingers. He also felt bad.


    It could be seen that he felt sad about losing his student.


    Shirley thought she shouldn’t say more. She looked at her watch and said, “It’s gettingte. It happens


    to be your open time. Can you take me to your boss now? You promised me.”


    “I always keep my word. I’ll take you there. Come with me…”


    After saying that, Irving strode forward and led the way.


    Under the moonlight, his green gown looked even more elegant and graceful. He was so handsome


    that it


    was as if he had walked out of a poem.


    Shirley wanted to follow behind Irving, but the silk in her hand reminded her of something.


    That’s right, she had to ask the old man where the silk was from!


    But when she turned around, the old man had been nowhere to be found, and even his stall was


    gone…
