Chapter 449 Tighten Your Belt
Nancy was speechless.
She didn’t speak or move, freezing on the spot.
Keith walked towards Braden and looked at the sweet couple. A serious and deep
expression showed on his handsome face. It was rare. He said with a sigh, “Braden,
good for you! You are back together while I was on vacation. Skills are nothing
compared to talent. You are indeed a talent!”
Braden was in deep love. It seemed that he was possessed by Venus. He was not as
cold and unreasonable as he used to be but had an aura of love and peace.
“Don’t tease me. I’m sincere enough. That’s why Shirley came back to me. Remember
that sincerity is a killing move in a relationship!”
After he finished speaking, Braden hugged him with one arm and whispered, “Nancy
is a good girl with integrity and honesty. She is much better than Alice. Grasp your
opportunity. Don’t let me lose face in front of my wife.”
Keith raised his eyebrows and suddenly came to a realization. “This is your real
intention, right?”
“Are you not satisfied?”
Braden frowned slightly and said in a dignified manner, “My wife is such a wonderful
girl. Thus, her best friend must be great. Don’t tell me that you dislike her?”
“It’s not that I dislike her. It’s just that I’m surprised by how henpecked you are. I’m
known as the No.1 simp in Seatie City. But you totally beat me.”
Keith was amused by his henpecked friend.
He couldn’t help but look at Shirley with admiration and said with a halfsmile, “Shirley,
no one could resist your charm. You are so attractive…”
“Thank you. Don’t flatter me. I haven’t seen the world. Thus, I fell into Braden’s trick.
Now we have two kids. Therefore, just make do with the marriage!”
Shirley waved her hand. Although she looked reluctant, the smile and gentleness in
her eyes could not be hidden.
“Well, since then, why don’t you make do with me?”
The corners of Keith’s mouth curled into a cynical smile. His charming eyes
smoldered. He said in an ambiguous tone, “Four years ago, I made a bet with Braden.
You were almost my girlfriend.”
“Oh?”
Shirley became quite curious. She asked, “What bet did you make? Tell me.”
Braden had a cold expression on his face as he warned Keith in a bad mood, “Don’t
talk about nonsense over and over again. Don’t forget that this is your sister-in-law.”
“Pfft. Braden, don’t be so nervous. I’m not Karen. I won’t crave a friend’s wife. I’m just
a little regretful…”
Keith’s smile was unrestrained, but there was a deep sadness in his eyes. “Four years
ago, when you disappeared, I made a bet with Braden. If I had found you before him, I
would have let go of our brotherhood and boldly pursued you. I thought that I had
found you. However, I had gotten myself in trouble.
“I often asked myself how good it would be if you were the one I found in the
underground casino at Sutor Wharf!”
“Eh…”
For a moment, Shirley felt a little awkward and didn’t know how to respond. She and
Keith were good buddies. They had gone through a lot. His intimate words made the
atmosphere awkward.
“I told you that she is your sister-in-law. Don’t talk nonsense!” Braden said with a
straight face.
He knew that Keith was a playboy who always had a new girlfriend. And he enjoyed
flirting with women.
He knew that Keith never took those girls seriously.
However, Alice was the only girl Keith had feelings for.
Coincidentally, Alice looked just like Shirley. Therefore, he could think too much…
“Braden, why are you so nervous?”
Keith curled his lips and wore his usual sinister and unpredictable expression. “Since
you invited me here, you should have the guts, right?”
The two men fell into an invisible competition. The atmosphere tensed up.
“You… Can you all be normal?”
Shirley swallowed and carefully suggested it.
Keith’s beautiful eyes immediately curved into a smile as he patted Braden on his
shoulder. “Haha, I was just joking. Look at how scared Braden is. He’s afraid that his
wife will be stolen…
“Well, I won’t tease you anymore. This island is so beautiful. I’m going to walk
around!”
He ran for a few steps. Suddenly, he remembered something and retreated. He said
to Braden and Shirley, “Well, Braden, Alice asked me to tell you to be prepared and
tighten your belt.”
“Tighten my belt?”
Shirley was confused. “What the hell? Keith, explain it…”
However, Keith had already run away.
And Nancy had been biting her cheeks all the time, standing far away at the dock.
She did not want to take a step forward, but to turn around and leave.
“Why isn’t she coming over?”
Braden asked coldly. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
He didn’t know much about Nancy. Someone mentioned that she was the biggest fan of him and
Shirley. When he divorced Shirley, she became his biggest anti-fan.
He thought about this… It seemed to be Keith who told him.
Keith was in total control of showbiz in North America. He knew a lot of media and paparazzi. Thus, he
found out about Nancy’s disclosures. It clearly recorded the process of her turning from a fan to a hater.
Therefore, it seemed very reasonable that Nancy hated him.
“It’s okay. She might not be able to accept this for a while. I’ll explain it to her. Go and have fun with
Keith.”
Shirley knew Alice well. Her reaction was normal.
“Okay. Thank you, sweetie. Both of them made me worried. If they could be together, it would save me
lots of worries.”
Braden hugged Shirley affectionately before they parted reluctantly.
Nancy became even angrier when she saw this. She gritted her teeth and wanted to leave.
However, the only speedboat had already driven away. She could only pout her lips and turn her back
to Shirley angrily.
“Nancy, my dear Nancy, don’t be angry!”
Shirley hugged Nancy from behind and said coquettishly, “I know I did something wrong. Please forgive
me. You are the best…”
“Stop it!”
Nancy curled her lip. She wanted to give Shirley the cold shoulder. She gave up in just a few minutes.
She turned around and held Shirley’s beautiful face. “You’d better explain this well. Otherwise… I will
jump into the sea and make you regret it for a lifetime.”
