Chapter 204 Neither Love nor Hatred
Braden’s voice was cold and husky. He whispered to Shirley’s ear in agony and anger, “Shirley, you
really are the coldest and most heartless woman I have ever seen in this world!”
The feelings that had been accumulated for four years came flooding through uncontrollably at the
moment.
The man held her tightly as if he wanted to integrate her into his body… It seemed that only in this way
could he make sure he could keep her in his life and not give her another chance to leave!
Shirley felt a bit of pain from his hug, and her brows furrowed slightly.
She could easily flip him over, but she did not resist. Like a little rabbit, she just let him hold her
Shirley used to yearn for his embrace, which was safe, powerful, and warm. However, now she was
totally not swayed at all.
It was easy to fall in love with someone, and it was also not difficult to let go of a person. Four years were
enough for her to completely move on.
After a short and long hug, Braden also realized that he was a bit overreactive. He slowly let go of her
with some reluctance, but still maintained a close distance between them.
“Don’t misunderstand. This hug doesn’t have any meaning.
“I get it.” Shirley nodded.
The woman’s calm and unhurried demeanor made Braden feel inexplicably unhappy. He felt like striking
a punch at the cotton. He was rather powerless.
He could control everything effortlessly, but not the woman in front of him.
He couldn’t do it in the past or now, which made him feel rather frustrated!
“Since you are so dissatisfied with me, why didn’t you push me away just now? You obviously could have
pushed me away!”
Braden asked coldly.
Shirley shrugged and said lightly, “Mr. Stewart, you got me wrong. I don’t have any dissatisfaction with
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou. After all, we used to be married. It doesn’t seem to be a big deal for us to have a hug after we
haven’t met for a long time.”
“Huh, we used to be married!”
Braden sneered, “I didn’t know that you were so big–hearted… Do you really think that after hiding
like a turtle for four years, you can appear as if nothing had happened without being resp what you did
before?”
Shirley knew that Braden wouldn’t let her go so easily. She was very calm and asked, “Then what do you
want me to do?”
“Do you know that because of your cold–bloodedness back then, the child was gone, and Amelie’s
uterus was removed? She can never be a mother again!”
Braden’s handsome face couldn’t help but reveal a painful expression. His voice trembled slightly.
Over the past four years, he had lived in deep self–blame.
Braden had always felt that it was his mistake that caused his brother to lose his only child and also
ruined Amelie’s life.
For these four years, he had deliberately avoided that topic and forbade anyone to mention it. Then, he
used work to numb himself as if abusing himself.
Now, as the fuse for the entire tragedy, Shirley finally appeared. He felt it was time for him to end
his misery…
“I don’t care if you did it on purpose or not. The child was indeed gone because of you. Amelie suffered
from severe depression as a result. Over the past four years, she has committed suicide countless
times… You owe her an apology.”
“So serious?”
The calm expression on Shirley’s face gradually became serious.
She did not expect that the accident four years ago would cause such a serious consequence.
In the past, she was too proud and arrogant. Even if she knew that she was wrong, she would never
apologize to someone like Amelie.
Now, as a mother, she knew better than anyone how fatal this kind of mishap was. Of course,
was guilty.
she
“Don’t worry, I know what to do.”
Shirley looked at Braden coldly. She paused for a few seconds and added, “However, this is the grudge
between me and Amelie. I hope that you don’t interfere too much. Otherwise, if you get hurt, I won’t be
responsible!”
Braden didn’t expect that Shirley would answer so straightforwardly. Deep in his heart, he felt at sense of
inexplicable loss….
After all, there seemed to be the only thing that could link them together.
If this matter was completely dealt with, then there would be nothing going on between them.
“Great. I don’t have anything else to say.
Braden had mixed feelings, and his feelings for Shirley were also very complicated.
In fact, he didn’t hate Shirley that much.
Yet, it seemed he lacked sufficient reasons for him to be with her again.
Admittedly, the gap of four years changed a lot of things…
Braden turned around coldly and was about to leave.
“Wait a minute ”
Shirley suddenly stopped him.
“Is there anything else?”
“Thank you.”
Shirley said sincerely.
“What do you mean?”
Braden was confused.
“For the past four years, thank you for paying respects to my parents. I once deeply loved you, and I also
deeply hated you. But since the past is past, I neither love nor hate you now. I hope when we meet
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmagain, we can just move on and live our own lives.”
Shirley said from the bottom of her heart with a smile.
In the past, she had a lot of burdens in her heart. She was really tired.
It was only after she completely moved on that she realized that she could also live so easily!
She talked decently, but Braden’s face turned colder and colder as he listened.
He thought, is this damned woman in such a hurry to cut ties with me?
“I think this amber pendant should be yours. I picked it up four years ago and now I’ll return it to
you.”
Shirley took off the amber pendant she had kept for four years from her neck and handed it to
Braden.
“It’s with you!”
Braden quickly took it. The amber still had the warmth of Shirley.
After checking carefully and confirming that it was a relic left by his brother, Braden was very excited. “It
is very important to me. I have been looking for it for a long time, but I didn’t find it.”
“You left it in front of my parents‘ grave. I didn’t expect you to pay your respects to them, so I didn’t
Shirley expect it to be your personal item. If there is any inconvenience, please accept my apology,
said politely.
Her tone was full of alienation.
This “politeness” was just what Braden disliked.
It was as if they were just acquaintances, but they clearly used to be a couple!
However, Braden was such a cold and proud person. No matter how he felt, he would not reveal
anything on the surface.
“You better pray that this pendant is intact. Otherwise, I won’t let go just due to a simple apology.”
After he said that coldly, he left without looking back.
Shirley leaned against the sports car and watched the man walk away proudly. She couldn’t help smiling,
“Well, this guy is still as bad as ever. It seems that it is time for him to suffer a little and
have a taste of failure…”
