When She Unveils Identities

Chapter 456 This Is A Personal Vendetta

Braden left for more than a week. He was the same as Mr. Quintin, and no one heard from him at all.

And no one could reach him on the phone, either. Tracy could not explain anything clearly, and the media did not mention Braden’s whereabouts at all.

Nancy was so anxious that she kept pulling strings and trying to find out about Braden’s whereabouts. However, those rich young men and women, who had always been fearless, all chose to remain silent, not daring to say anything.

On the contrary, Shirley was very calm. Since she couldn’t reach Braden on the phone, she would try again after a few hours. And since nothing changed, she would simply drop it as if nothing had happened.

Another morning arrived. Shirley leisurely held the easel, facing the sea and painting the beautiful sea sunrise.

Nancy was flustered and walked up and down beside Shirley. Finally, Nancy could bear it no more. She snatched Shirley’s brush away, frowned, and asked, “Shirley, how can you paint so calmly? Aren’t you worried about him?”

“What should I be worried about?” Shirley asked calmly and slowly.

“There has been no Braden’s news for a week. He was all over you the last few days, and now he vanishes just like that. Clearly, something is off…”

“How so?”

Shirley smiled, “You make it sound like he has been killed or having an affair.”

“Those things are possible!”

Nancy was agitated. She continued, “Braden is a jerk. He has wronged you before. He once knocked up his mistress, brought her to you, and forced you to divorce him. Have you forgotten? Once a cheater, always a cheater. You can’t let him go too far.”

She was worried that Shirley would be hurt again, yet there were some things that she felt she was not at liberty to say. However, she would feel uneasy pretending that nothing had happened and not saying anything.

“If he did cheat, with his personality, I don’t believe he would hide it from me, and he certainly wouldn’t put me off in a childish way by not answering the phone. So, I think he had his reasons. After he deals with his matters, he’ll turn up.”
