Since it was a blackout caused by a malfunction, Shirley could eliminate the possibility of the

Stewart family trying to murder her.

With a slight sigh of relief, Shirley slowly moved her hand away from Braden’s neck and

subconsciously wanted to distance herself from him.

Unexpectedly, he suddenly wrapped his iron-like arm around her waist forcefully, causing their

bodies to press against each other tightly.

Startled, Shirley froze, not daring to move at all. She stammered, “What … do you mean?”

Braden was silent. He wrapped his other hand around her waist like he was hugging a large furry

doll.

Shirley was flustered. She struggled and warned, “Braden, don’t take advantage of the dark to act

like a rogue. Let me go, or you’ll be sorry!”

“Don’t move!”

Braden hugged her even tighter, like a koala holding a tree.

“You’re pushing me. It seems you don’t want your arm anymore, so I…”

Shirley slowly exerted force and was about to kick Braden away when she heard the sound of

sobbing.

Braden was crying!

Shirley immediately quieted down. She was stunned as if seeing an alien picking its nose. This was

too abnormal!

“What’s… what’s wrong?”

She asked cautiously out of curiosity.

“You probably don’t know. I was traumatized. The dark reminds me of my brother’s death. I get

nervous and urgently need comfort. Otherwise… the consequences will be very serious.”

Braden whispered to her in a choked voice.

Really?

Shirley was skeptical and asked, “How serious will it be?”

“I’ll be short of breath. My heart will beat faster. I’ll die from the failure of my internal organs.”

The words were exaggerated, but no one doubted them when they came from the aloof Braden.

Shirley didn’t dare to move, letting Braden hold her, and whispered, “In that case… this is the best chance for me to take your life.”

Braden tightened his arms, wishing he could embed Shirley into his body.

Like a cat, he rubbed the tip of his high nose against Shirley’s earlobe. He said in a low voice, “I already said so. If you want, go ahead.”

In the dark, they could feel their breaths on each other’s skin.

They couldn’t see each other’s faces, so Braden didn’t know that Shirley’s face was red like a peach

blossom right now.

Just like that, the two of them quietly hugged each other. It seemed odd but also reasonable.

“Who are the people you just asked me for?”

Braden’s magnetic voice rang out in the dark.

Only then did Shirley remember what she had come for. She tensed up and asked aggressively with a frown, “You really don’t know, or are you pretending?”

“If I knew anything, I’d tell you frankly. I wouldn’t play dumb. Or… did you hide something from me?”

Braden’s reply was impeccable. He even asked Shirley a trick question.

“It’s dark here, and our posture is too strange. As you said, this will have a bad impact on us. Let’s go out first.”

Shirley fumbled for her phone, intending to use the flashlight to walk toward the door.

The Stewart family was rich. Their study room was as large as the house of an ordinary family. It was hard to reach the door in the dark.

When Shirley took out her phone, she saw the message and video sent by May.

“Ms. Wilson, I couldn’t reach you on your phone. Come back quickly. Bennett and Alisha are home. They are fine. Don’t worry.”

In the video, Bennett and Alisha were happily showing her a cake.

To avoid arousing Braden’s suspicion, Shirley only watched part of the video silently before quickly turning it off.

With the flashlight on her phone, Shirley broke free from Braden and came to the door. When she

turned the door lock, she found that she couldn’t open it.

“Damn, why can’t I open it? What’s going on?”

In the dark, they blushed from embarrassment.

“So… sorry. I didn’t mean it. I wanted to grab the door handle, but I didn’t expect…”

Shirley stammered.

She happened to grab his private part in the dark. How could it be so coincidental? If she said it

wasn’t intentional, he wouldn’t believe it!

Braden tried to adjust his breathing and pretended to be calm. He said coldly, “I’ve seen many

lecherous women. Among them, you’re the most brazen. This is an eye-opener.”

“What? I really didn’t do it on purpose. If I wanted you, I’d have done something to you during our

four-year marriage. How could I not have touched you? I…”

“You mean you didn’t do anything to me when we were married?”

“L…”

The only time Shirley could think of was when Braden and she were drunk.

That was when she got pregnant with Bennett and Alisha.

But why did he sound as if he didn’t remember?

In this case, she would not admit it either, lest he suspected her.

“I was never intimate with you because I wasn’t interested in you.”

She lied.

“Not interested?”

Braden laughed out of anger. He grabbed her wrist, held her by the waist, and pressed her against the door. He said in a hoarse voice, “Are you sure?”

“Of… of course. If I were interested in you, I would have slept with you long ago. We’d have had

babies. That manipulative woman wouldn’t have had a chance. I…”

Braden’s thin lips tightly on hers stopped Shirley’s unceasing torrent of words.

His gentle kiss took her breath away, causing her mind to go blank. She forgot to resist. Her entire

person was soft, like a lamb at his mercy….

Braden was very satisfied with her reaction. He smiled and said, “You lied. It looks like

very interested in me!”
