Chapter 88 Feeling Secure Like Staying With Her Father

Braden didn’t reply. Instead, he looked all around the villa.

“The layout of this villa is not good. The hall is too small, the dome is not big enough, and the stairs are too steep. You need to completely modify them.

“The decoration style is too archaic. I wonder if your villa is a fossil from the Jurassic period.

“The stone pillars in your corridor are not exquisite enough. You’d better re–carve them.

”

Braden pointed out all the flaws of the villa in an arrogant manner.

Shirley was confused. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

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 villa. However, ordinary people did not kn ow its value. Therefore, even though the Wilson’s villa 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 stayi ng 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 divorc e.

“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 b etter 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 fo od. 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

welcome here. I’m going to close the door!”

Braden remained unmoved and said coldly, “I don’t need you to welcome me.”

Then he turned to look at May and said confidently, “May welcomes 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 welcome 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 embarras sed 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 u sed to living here?”

“What are you talking about? This is my home How can I not get used to living here“:

Shirley looked around and laughed at herself “After wandering for four years, I finally returned home. I have to say that it’s comfortable 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 be autiful face disappeared to be replaced by a scornful expression.

“Braden, don’t you think it’s too hypocritical to say this now? When you asked me to move out overnigh t 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 contrar y, he wanted something from her.

Shirley could vaguely guess why Braden was looking for her, but she just didn’t mention it. She just wa nted 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 stellar 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 vall

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 replaced with tacky roses

Not only the sunflowers, but all traces of Shirley had been cleaned up, which made him feel inexplicably

“Well, so what?”

Shirley no longer had the patience to play dumb with Braden. She directly pointed out Braden’s thoughts

“You are the mighty president who stands above everything. For a woman, you come to curry favor with 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 A

Braden paused for a moment and said frankly, “She was too frightened that day. Now she is still lying in

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 evide

In fact, with Braden’s power, it was easy to bail someone out.

Unfortunately, Shirley was even more ruthless. She consulted Jim’s law firm and petition the court, leavi

No matter how influential Braden was, he couldn’t withhold due process of law, so the only thing he coul

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 he
