Chapter 454 Do I Look like A Murderer?
“Braden, admit it. You are a murderer. You killed Mr. Quintin, right?”
Shirley clenched her fingers and asked Braden emotionally.
This conjecture had vaguely occurred in her heart before, until the moment Shirley arrived at Sunflower Island, it was totally confirmed.
Shirley had been depressed all day, and it was also because of this matter that she wanted to have a good talk with Braden about it, but she was afraid that when she learned the truth, their relationship would be broken, and they would never be able to get back together…
“What?”
Braden was caught off guard.
He had never expected that Shirley would think this way.
Suddenly, Braden didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
It seemed that he still thought too highly of Shirley, thinking that she had already seen through that the so-called “Mr. Quintin” was him!
“Why do you look like that? Did you kill him? Give me an answer. What are you laughing at?”
Shirley did not understand what the man meant when he was smiling.
Did she guess it right, so he smiled arrogantly, or her guess was not right, so he smiled mockingly?
“Look at me, do I look like a murderer?” Braden asked with a faint smile.
“You can’t judge a man by his look. There are many cases in the world. A criminal is a handsome man, but in fact, he is a serial killer. For example, there is a man named Ricky Ramirez. He is a notorious serial killer, nicknamed the disciple of the Devil. Because he has a handsome face, the jury has been charmed by him. Not only does he have countless fans, but he also married in prison…”
“So I am handsome. You came to the conclusion that I am also a serial killer?”
Braden propped up his good-looking chin and patiently listened to Shirley’s explanation. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry again.
“It’s not that you’re handsome, so you are a killer. It’s just that even though you’re handsome, maybe you’re a murderer…”
Shirley became confused after she beat around the bush. She waved her hand and said, “In short, don’t talk so much with me. Just answer me. Are you a murderer or not?”
Braden also knew that he couldn’t fool Shirley, so he could only answer honestly, “I can only say that I have done something to Mr. Quintin, but I didn’t kill him.”
“What do you mean? Did you ever try to kill him?”
Shirley was running out of patience and couldn’t help but want to beat Braden up. If you didn’t kill him, just say it. If you killed him, admit it. What did you mean by trying to kill him?
“Four years ago, I had a conflict with him. At that time, either he died or I died. As for today…”
Braden paused and then said meaningfully, “I can only tell you that he is still alive. If you really need to see him again, I can inform him.”
Braden felt that the reason why Shirley was still thinking about Mr. Quintin was that
Mr. Quintin left without saying goodbye to her.
Since that was the case, Braden did not mind saying goodbye to Shirley as “Mr.
Quintin” again. This way, he might be able to swallow this thorn in his heart.
“From what you’re saying, you’re quite close to Mr. Quintin. At least, you can contact him at any time. You are much closer than us…”
Shirley sneered.
Wasn’t it said that the Stewart Group and Crimson Pawnshop were irreconcilable?
She did not see any irreconcilableness between them at all. They were clearly very harmonious!
At the very least, Mr. Quintin was quite generous. He could give his woman and children to others, and even Sunflower Island could be given up. He was not an enemy to Braden. He was clearly a friend who was even closer than a brother!
“Then please help me make an appointment with him. Otherwise, I will definitely not let this matter go.”
There was an unprecedented firmness in Shirley’s eyes.
Wasn’t this matter a thorn in her heart?
It was time to settle this…
The next day.
“Ah!”
Nancy screamed in the guest room.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Keith sleeping on the same bed as her.
The most hilarious thing was that she was like an octopus, wrapping her hands and feet around the man!
“You’re awake, Nancy?”
Keith stretched with sleepy eyes. His beautiful eyes were smiling as he looked gently at the woman in his arms.
“Keith, what’s going on? You, I, how did we…”
“We drank a lot last night. Generally speaking, this kind of situation is normal.”
Keith put on the appearance of a playboy. It seemed that he was used to such a condition.
Nancy was about to go crazy. She was obsessed with pure love and could not accept an open relationship.
“Shut up, you playboy. I don’t want to talk to you!”
Nancy kicked Keith out of bed, then put on her clothes as quickly as she could and fled out of the room as if she was running for her life.
“Good morning, Nancy!”
Shirley had already woken up and was walking on the beach. When she saw Nancy coming out of the guest room, she smiled ambiguously and said, “Did you sleep well last night?”
Nancy’s face flushed immediately. She held onto Shirley’s arm and frantically shook it.
“Shirley, are you my friend or not? Didn’t you see I go to the bedroom with Keith? Why didn’t you stop me? Wouldn’t you regret it by sending me to the fire?”
“It’s not that serious…”
Shirley comforted Nancy and said, “First, it’s not that I didn’t stop you. It’s just that you guys were too crazy last night. Especially you, you’re like a runaway horse. I couldn’t stop you at all.
“Second, Keith is pretty good and reliable. I really hope that you can get together. How can you describe it as sending you to the fire?” Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
“What the hell!”
Nancy was really a little angry. She was breathing quickly, and she said excitedly,
“Haven’t you heard of the title of the top playboy of Seatie City? He has countless women around him. He will flirt with any woman he meets. He won’t fall in love with anyone, and he can easily make you love him so hard. However, he won’t be moved at all. Talking love with such a man is consuming my feelings.”
“That is all on the surface…”
Shirley laughed. “Keith is just hiding his affection by showing others his cynical attitude. He doesn’t easily fall in love with anyone, but once he falls in love, he is definitely the most dedicated one. Look at him, isn’t he very attentive to that girl called Alice?”
“I know. He is like a bar of chocolate with a stink. One needs to peel him off to find his advantages.”
“Well, you are right to say that. I also thought he was a playboy before…
“No, he was a play poop!”
“Hahaha, you’re too mean!”
Shirley couldn’t help but laugh out loud. She was completely defeated by Nancy’s accurate description.
“I know. You want to tell me that Keith is a good man, but… Why do I have to be with a bar of stinky chocolate? Can’t I just find some normal chocolate?”
Nancy sighed and hit the nail on the head.
“Well, if you really don't have any feelings towards him, I won’t play matchmaker. I will let him go today!”
“Yes, let him go quickly. I… I’m too ashamed to face him again!”
When Nancy said this, her cheeks turned red involuntarily, and she couldn’t be more embarrassed.
As they chatted, Keith seemed to be completely carefree. He wore casual clothes and slippers with a bottle of soda in his hand as he walked towards them…
