Chapter 62 Not Care About Her at All?
Braden’s words irritated Shirley to an extreme extent.
Due to her sense of competition, she immediately said to Howard, “Yes, grandpa. The talk about Ewan
and I are not groundless rumors. We have started dating. I hope you can forgive and bless me because
he is the one who can protect me and bring me happiness!”
Ewan turned to look at Shirley, his eyes full of affection and warmth.
He knew very well that Shirley was putting on a show and deliberately irritated Braden, but he was still
very moved.
After all, he was not even Shirley’s backup.
Ewan suddenly experienced the feeling of being Shirley’s boyfriend. It was as if he had hit the jackpot.
After a few seconds of serious silence, Howard suddenly laughed and regained his amiable appearance.
“Silly girl, look at what you’re saying. I will definitely bless you. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have specially
invited you two to have this dinner.
“Today, I want to help you check whether your boyfriend is reliable or not. I need to see if he can take
good care of you. You just came out of a fire pit. I can’t watch you jump into another, can I?”
At this point, Howard glanced at Braden, who was sitting on his left, with obvious disgust.
Ewan went on acting,and hurriedly said, “General Stewart, you can test me however you like. I have
many specialties, and I can even sing rap. Can I sing a song here to cheer you up?”
Ewan really began to sing. His singing was no worse than that of a professional rapper.
Ewan was kind and warm. Wherever he went, Ewan would bring sunshine and joy to people around.
Everyone was amused by him, even the servants who had always followed the strict rules.
Only Braden sat coldly. His handsome face was expressionless the entire time. “Boring!”
The dinner officially began.
Howard knocked on the red wine glass and said to everyone, “Today, it’s rare for you young people to
enjoy the meal with me. I won’t say anything else. I just wish our Shirley would be happy. No matter what
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtrelationship you have with Braden, I will always be your grandfather. The Stewart family will always be
your family. Come to see me often!”
Shirley was so moved that her eyes turned red. “Don’t worry, grandpa, except for the change in my
relationship with Mr. Braden, everything else will be the same!”
Ewan put away his sloppy appearance and sincerely expressed his feelings “General Stewart,
Shirley will be happy with me. You don’t have to worry. Protecting her is my life mission!”
“Good! You are all good children… You’re unlike someone who only knows how to anger me!”
The three of them were in a harmonious mood and made a toast with each other. It seemed to be an
engagement party. Braden continued to maintain silence, and he didn’t appear to belong there.
Braden’s handsome face was gloomy. He sipped his wine silently, casually picked up something, and put
it into his mouth. However, there was no taste in his chew.
Howard’s “punishment” was really ruthless. Braden felt as if he had been cut in half. He might as well
take a few whips.
Ewan picked up a piece of fish from his plate and thoughtfully put it into Shirley’s plate.
His action was too natural. It was obvious that he often did it.
Howard was even more upset. He touched Braden who sat next to him. “You should think about why
you lost. Ewan is younger than you, but he is way more considerate than you. Now I feel that it is her
good fortune that Shirley divorced you!”
Braden put a disdainful expression on his face. He said coldly, “A servant can do this kind of
superficial work. What’s the point?”
“You!”
Howard was stunned by his silly grandson who might have a negative EQ. He wanted to kick Braden
out on the spot.
Ewan didn’t mind. He smiled faintly. “Mr. Braden is a bit arrogant and rude. Not everyone can do
this. For example, you can’t.
“Let me ask you… You and Shirley have been married for so many years. Do you know her
preference? What does she like to eat the most and what she doesn’t the most? Do you know?”
Braden is stunned.
He couldn’t answer these questions.
Although he and Shirley had been married for four years, the number of times they ate at the same
table could be counted on one hand. Even if they ate together, he never deliberately paid attention
to what she liked or disliked.
“I won’t waste my time on these boring thing
Braden said with a cold and arrogant expression.
Boring
“That’s right. A cold blooded man like you is just a complete utilitarian. How can there be anyone else in
your eyes!”
Ewan wasn’t afraid of irritating Braden. His words were as sharp as a knife. He wanted to split Braden, a
heartless ice mountain, into pieces!
“Poor Shirley. She has long remembered your taste. She knows that you like light diets instead of spicy
food. She knows that your favorite food is medium–well steak. She also learned to cook a hundred
different kinds of steaks for you. Unfortunately, her sincerity… was all wasted!”
Ewan’s words caused Braden’s cold face to change a little. He frowned slightly.
He subconsciously looked at Shirley who was separated from him. He was silently asking her for the
authenticity of Ewan’s words.
Shirley was still looking forward, and her delicate, fair–skinned face seemed to be cold and emotionless.
She said lightly, “Ewan is both right and wrong.
“Compared to Mr. Braden’s ruthlessness, I am indeed a kind person. You are all people I care about, so I
remember the preferences of any one of you. However, since I treat you sincerely, there is no such thing
as waste. At most, I can always warm myself not to give the heart to the wrong man.”
Before Braden could react to Shirley’s words, Howard was so guilty that he didn’t even lift his head. He
said earnestly, “Shirley, I know you’ve been wronged. I won’t force you to remarry this rascal. Be happy
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwith Ewan. “He is reliable and can give you happiness.”
When Shirley heard this, she immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
Howard had thought it through and would no longer force her and Braden together.
She had to thank Ewan for his superb performance.
If she was an elder, she would also choose an enthusiastic man with positive energy like Ewan. An ice
mountain like Braden wouldn’t melt for thousands of years. She just wanted him to go away as far as
possible!
Sticking on the show, Shirley held Ewan’s hand tight and sincerely said to Howard, “Thank you your
support, grandfather. Trust me. Ewan and I will be happy.”
for
After dinner, Howard couldn’t bear to send Shirley and Ewan away as if he had to send away two barrels
of laughs. The huge house suddenly became lonely.
“Ah, what a pity!”
After Howard sent them back, he kept sighing. When he saw Braden sitting on the sofa and reading
a magazine as if nothing had happened, Howard was even more furious.
“You still have the mood to read a magazine? You lost such a good wife! Can you sit still?”
Braden raised his cold eyes. “Then what should I do? Should I cry and take her back?”
“Shut up!”
Howard let out a long sigh and said, “I can see that you really don’t care about Shirley. In your marriage,
Shirley has sacrificed too much, but there’s nothing in return. Since that’s the case, then don’t disturb her
anymore… I think she and Ewan are more suitable.”
“It’s good that you understand this.”
Braden lowered his eyes and continued reading the magazine. His handsome and cold face did not.
reveal much emotion.
It seemed that Howard had finally accepted the fact that he had divorced Shirley. Braden could finally be
at peace for a while.
However, could he really not care about Shirley at all?
