Chapter 493 Dirty Heart
Braden said in a calm voice, "Mom, I'm sorry. I didn't protect myself well. I made you sad."
Tracy looked at her once proud and outstanding son, who suddenly became so melancholy and sad.
She felt like he had lost all light and was like a walking corpse.
She felt like her heart was being scraped by a knife. It hurt so much that she almost couldn't breathe.
"Son, what have you been through?"
She hugged Braden, shocked and distressed.
It was hard to imagine what kind of inhumane torture he had gone through when he was not there. It
made him like this.
"It's already in the past. I don't want to mention it again."
Braden's voice was faint. He didn't want to reveal anything or allow Alina to do it.
For him, everything he had suffered today was what he had to pay to Shirley. It was his own fault.
Now, the debt had been paid off, and they didn't need to pester each other anymore.
"Well, let's not talk about it. It's good that you're back...’
Tracy silently shed tears. She gently patted Braden's back as she did when Braden was a child. She
coaxed him to sleep and whispered, "Don't worry. I will do everything to cure you!"
Perhaps Braden was too tired. He fell asleep when he got home.
Tracy was unwilling. She must know who was so daring to hurt his son so badly.
She knocked on the door of the guest room. "Alina, are you asleep?"
"Who is it?’
Alina asked in a frightened voice.
At this moment, she had already washed up. She was wrapped in pajamas on the bed. Her whole body
was curled like shrimp, shivering.

"Tracy? Please come in."
Alina got up and turned on the light in the room.
Tracy came in and closed the bedroom door. She rubbed her hands and sat on the bedside, hesitating
to speak.
"Alina. You also need to go to bed at this time, so I shouldn't have come to disturb you...'
"It's okay, Tracy. Having experienced that, how can I sleep? You can come and chat with me."
"Yes, I think so too."
Tracy hesitated for a moment and asked, "Just now, Braden was in a bad state and did not want to talk
about those sad things. However, if I do not do something for him, I am afraid that I will not be able to
rest in peace, so I can only ask you for help...
"Alina, can you tell me what you two have experienced? Why are Braden's eyes like this?"
Alina let out a long sigh with a sad gaze. "Actually, this is all my fault. If I were not too selfish, maybe
everything would not have happened."
"Your fault?"
Tracy was confused. "What does it have to do with you? Don't you have a good relationship with
Braden? Don't tell me you will harm him."
"It's just because of the good relationship between me and Braden."
Alina said with red eyes, "Braden's eyes were blinded by Ms. Wilson. I guess Ms. Wilson did this
because she was unwilling to be abandoned. She went to the extreme and hated him because she
loved him so much!'
"What? Shirley blinded him? She doesn't seem like someone who would do such a thing."
Tracy was shocked but she still expressed her doubts.
Because Shirley had been her daughter-in-law for so many years, she still knew what kind of woman
Shirley was.
"I also can't believe that Ms. Wilson would be so cruel. No matter what, she really loved Braden. No
matter how much hatred she has, she shouldn't be so vicious. Unfortunately, it was indeed Ms. Wilson
who harmed him. Love is very beautiful and scary!"
Alina deliberately framed Shirley.
In any case, the one who harmed him was Shirley’s brother. He was no different from Shirley.
"It was Ms. Wilson, so Braden is reluctant to tell you because of his old feelings. He is afraid that you
will be impulsive and seek revenge on her."
Alina observed Tracy's expression and continued to infuriate her.
"Not only that, when I went to save Braden, I also suffered from Ms. Wilson's revenge. I..."
When she said this, she suddenly burst into tears and cried.
"Alina, don't be sad. How did she retaliate against you? Tell me..."
"She asked a group of men to do that kind of thing to me. I almost died!"
When Alina said this, she lifted the skirt of her pajamas, revealing the dark wounds on her legs.
"Damn. This is too terrible!"
Tracy saw the wounds on Alina's thigh. Obviously, these were formed after she was ravaged by many
people. Her body could not help but tremble.
"Tracy, you don't have to believe that Braden's eyes were blinded by Ms. Wilson, but what I
experienced was because of her. I didn't expect her to hate me so much. I even want to die now. I don't
deserve Braden!"
"Alina, don't say that. You just got your body injured but don't have a dirty heart."
Tracy hugged Alina and said coldly, "You and Braden have suffered, but I will not let you suffer for
nothing. I will not let Shirley go!"
Originally, she had some doubts about Alina's words. She believed in Shirley's character.
However, she saw the wounds on Alina's body, which showed an indisputable fact. She did not want to
but had to believe it.

"Even if he is angry or wants to cut off his relationship with me, I will take revenge!"
Tracy clenched her fists and said coldly, "My son is too sentimental. I thought that Shirley was a kind
and good girl. I even wanted to help them make up. Now it seems that I was so stupid that I didn't know
she would be so evil. I am really disappointed!"
On Sunflower Island.
Shirley wore a floral dress and lay on the hammock, bored. She swayed back and forth. Her small and
delicate face was covered by a big sun hat. The bright sunlight shone on her face, making her life
peaceful and nice.
What was quite annoying was that in the past few days after she returned to Sunflower Island, she was
like a visitor. Bennett and Alisha had already formed a new family with Keith and Nancy.
They went out to sea fishing early in the morning, but not with her!
Just as she was feeling bored, her brother Larry called her.
"Shirley, I have already sent that guy back to the Stewart's house safely as you said. When are you
going to come back?"
"Let's talk about it later. I'm fine here."
Shirley's tone was lazy.
Ever since she found out that Braden was safe and sound, she did not dare to go back to Seatie City
although she was relieved, for fear that she would meet him again when she went back.
After all, she had sworn that as long as he could live, she would never get along with him.
If she broke the rules, and he was in danger again, it would be troublesome.
So, it was better to wait for him to recover.
"I knew you were going to delay again..."
Larry shook his head lovingly, feeling helpless about his sister. He said, "I have a good thing here. Do
you want to see it?”
