Chapter 397 A Long-Schemed Plot
After Braden finished speaking, he left.
Shirley stayed alone in the sunflower field, standing under the bright moonlight, deep in thought.
Frankly speaking, it wasn’t like she hadn’t considered Braden’s proposal.
Although Braden’s words were unpleasant, there was a fact that no man in the world would be a better
option
than the children’s biological father.
And there was no mother in the world who could escape the curse of “for the children’s sake”.
If she and Braden got back together and could make the children happier, maybe she could also try to

But what about Mr. Quintin? She had promised him that she would get married to him a week later!
“Hey, it’s so annoying!”
The more Shirley thought about it, the more annoyed she became. She rubbed her hair and cursed
herself for being around too many men. Their relationship was just a mess. It was too bad.
With such a dilemma, Shirley returned to the bedroom and tossed and turned for the whole night. She
did not
fall asleep.
When Shirley woke up the next day, it was already late in the morning.
“Gosh!”
The warm sunlight touched her face, and Shirley finally woke up. Then she jumped up.
The big room was empty. The two little guys were not by her side. They must have woken up long ago.
Shirley casually put on a home dress and walked downstairs.
“You’re awake.”
Braden wore a black sweater and light gray trousers. He crossed his long legs and leisurely sat on the
sofa
reading a magazine.
“There are well-made sandwiches and milk on the dining table. Hurry up and eat some.”
Braden said without lifting his head.
Shirley stood at the top of the stairs and watched the sunlight fall on his hair, forming a faint halo on his

Braden was like an exhibition. He dressed up perfectly, giving off a sense of distance that was high and
untouchable.
But now, he suddenly revealed his lively side and gave Shirley a completely different feeling.
Now, Braden in front of her was no longer an unattainable business tycoon. He was gentle and relaxed.

afar, he seemed to have a filter. He was completely like a Korean drama male lead.
Shirley had to admit that she was attracted again!
“I told you to eat something. Why are you looking at me like that?”
Braden suddenly shifted his gaze away from the magazine and, as expected, caught the look in Shirley’s
eyes.
Shirley hurriedly avoided Braden’s gaze and ran to the dining hall. She picked up the sandwich on the
table
and stuffed it into her mouth.
The taste was not bad. It was even comparable to Mr. Quintin’s level.
“Did you make this?”
Shirley asked Braden in the living room from a distance of over ten feet.
“Of course.”
Braden curled his lips. His perfect face could not hide the joy
His gaze followed Shirley. There was originally a tall black sandalwood wine cabinet between the dining
room and the living room.
But even so, the man’s gaze was still a little too hot, like fireworks.
Shirley felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze. She simply turned around and faced him.
This time, she finally felt a little more at ease.
“I didn’t expect that your cooking skills would be so good. I thought you wouldn’t enter the kitchen and
didn’t
know how to cook at all!
“I didn’t know it at first, but I learned it later.”
“You even especially learned it. You have a lot of time.”
“A lot of time? Of course, no. But making food for the people you care about is a very happy thing. I
believe
you should have a deep understanding of it…”
Braden said with a faint smile, “I heard that before you married me, you didn’t go to the kitchen. In order
to
cook delicious food for me, you trained yourself to become a skilled cook?”
“Who did you hear it from? It’s nothing.”
Shirley denied it without confidence.
Because when it came to “stay away from the kitchen”, Shirley was the spokeswoman.
She had been different from ordinary girls since she was a child. She didn’t like dolls, beautiful dresses,
playing house, and even more didn’t like to enter the kitchen. Instead, she was more interested in
fighting.
guns, code, physics, and other things.

If not for the sake of becoming the “qualified” Mrs. Stewart, she would never have entered the kitchen in
her
life to win Braden’s heart.
Thinking back to that time, she had really been possessed. For a petty man, she had even lost her “self”!
“I also heard that you have always coveted my beauty and harbored evil intentions toward me!”
“Nonsense!”
It was as if the last piece of cloth had been ripped off. Shirley suddenly turned around and explained
excitedly. “With your looks, you are not my type at all…”
Only then did Shirley realize that the man had already come to the dining room from the living room and
was
standing right behind her.
The distance between them was only very close. Shirley only needed to raise her head and her head
would be
able to easily touch his resolute chin.

“Are you sure that I am not your type?”
Braden’s lips curved even deeper as he pressed on. “Then why are you peeking at me again and
again?”
“No way. It was just a coincidence!”
Shirley’s face was slightly hot as she argued in an extremely unconvincing manner, “I already said that
you are not my type. I like that kind of refined gentlemanly style. Not an iceberg like you. Don’t think too
highly of
yourself.”
“Shirley, I find that you are really terrified. You didn’t say that to the children last night…”
Braden was full of confidence. He pinched Shirley’s chin with his long fingers and lifted it slightly, forcing
her to look into his eyes. “Ally told me early in the morning that you fell in love with me because of my
face. Now
you say that I am not your type?”
“Well…”
Shirley was so embarrassed that she wanted to burrow into the ground on the spot.
Shirley thought, Ally, oh Ally, you are really my good daughter! How can you tell such an embarrassing
thing
to him?
“That’s right. I like handsome ones, so what!”
She simply gave up and openly stared at Braden’s beautiful face, openly admitting it.
“So, you admit it. You’ve been coveting my body for a long time and want to have me?”
“Ahem! Ahem!”
Shirley’s face was so red that it reached her neck.
She did like Braden’s face, but she didn’t like it as much as he said.

Although sometimes, Shirley would imagine the scene of her kissing him in a romantic atmosphere.
However, it was only a kiss. Any more and she would feel embarrassed.
Braden saw that Shirley was silent, and the smile on his lips deepened. He leaned into her ear and said,
“It doesn’t matter if you have coveted me or not. I have been coveting you for a long time.”
“Psycho!”
Shirley blushed and pushed the tall man away, quickly leaving the place that was about to burn her.
Braden looked in the direction Shirley had left in, his handsome face full of confidence.
He was like a high-level hunter, watching his prey fall into his trap step by step.
