When she unveils identities novel (Shirley and Braden) novel Chapter 457

Chapter 457 You Are Risking Your Neck

Nancy also opened her arms and blocked Shirley’s way. “If Keith is telling the truth, going to them now will be no different from risking your neck. I won’t let you take that risk!”

Shirley was very moved by Nancy and Keith’s worry for her, but she felt that they had overreacted a little. She smiled and said, “Don’t worry. I am there to resolve the conflict, and that’s all. How is that risking my neck? If anyone’s neck is risked, it will be theirs, not mine. You know what I am capable of.”

“Of course, I know what you are capable of, but you don’t know what the Gilmore family is capable of. To be more precise, you don’t know what your enemy is capable of.”

Keith’s eyes were serious, which was a rare thing. He said, “Do you know how many people in the entire Seatie City want to take down Braden? The Gilmore family is just the tip of the iceberg.”

“So what? If one stands in our way, I’ll take one down. If there are two, I’ll get them both.”

Shirley clenched her fists, her beautiful face showing absolute confidence.

“That’s just your idealized idea. They couldn’t take Braden down after all these years.

It wasn’t because they weren’t powerful enough, or because the Stewart family was too influential, but because Braden never had a weakness. Now that with you and the kids in the picture, he has a sore spot. No one knows if he can win outright this time…”

Keith could always see things through. He let out a long sigh and said, “My guess is that he left Sunflower Island suddenly and did not contact you so that you and the kids would be absolutely safe. If you go back now, you will be a burden to him.”

“Your words make sense, but I don’t want to be a coward hiding in a safe shell and leaving him alone. I want to be a general. I want to fight with him, to advance and retreat with him.”

Shirley said stubbornly.

“No! You’re not thinking straight, and I’m not letting you go!”

Nancy put her arms around Shirley’s waist and refused to let Shirley go any further. At the same time, Nancy’s eyes were red, and she asked Keith for help. “Do something!

Talk some sense into her. She can be so stubborn sometimes!”

Keith motioned for Nancy to let go of Shirley and then slowly said, “If you insist on leaving, we won’t stop you. But before you do, let me ask you something. Have you ever watched a TV show?”

His question came out of nowhere, catching both Shirley and Nancy off guard.

“Keith, I asked you to persuade Shirley. What the heck are you talking about?” Nancy could hardly suppress her desire to beat him up.

Shirley was very curious. She raised her thin eyebrows and asked, “I’m not in the habit of watching shows. What are you trying to say?”

“It’s just a TV show. Relatively speaking, it is quite conservative. If it were in reality, it may get sicker.”

Keith sighed.

The Guerra family was one of the top eight families in Seatie City. Being part of the Guerra family, of course, Keith had seen things and people far more twisted.

“Are you saying that Braden is Robb who called off the marriage, and I am the innocent nurse who got stabbed in the stomach? Once I go back, I will die?”

Shirley asked Keith, hitting the nail on the head.

“I’m sure you know what I mean.”

Keith shrugged. “I can only say that the Gilmore family had a nasty way of getting rich, and the things they did were far more brutal than some TV shows. If you don’t go back, with the Stewart family’s status, there might be room for reconciliation between the two families. If you go back, it will be no different from cornering the Gilmore family. If you push them too far, the consequences will be destructive.”

“He is right. We should sit tight and see how things go. I think Braden is very thoughtful about this.”

Nancy quickly agreed and secretly gave Keith a thumbs up.
