Chapter 167 I Don’t Rob!
Braden looked at the crowd and said slowly but firmly, “Of course, it’s the procedure of getting
married again.”
After that, he approached Shirley step by step. With a wave of his long arm, he pulled her into his
arms and said with a half–smile, “Baby, you are so naughty. After not being with you for a while, you ran
away with another man. This is so bad.”
“Baby?”
Shirley looked at Braden and felt disgusted.
Even if he was acting, there was no need to be so dramatic!
She thought of the nightmare last night as well as those tools for sex. Oh my, she felt that Braden
would torture her with sex in any moment.
At this time, the Robinson family was provoked, but because Braden’s vibe was too oppressive, they did
not dare to act rashly.
Bruce even took out the gun he carried with him and slammed it on the dining table. He said with a
fierce look in his eyes, “It seems that you are quite brave. How dare you come alone to our place to rob
us of Shirley? I heard that you’re the only child in your family. If you’re killed by us, wouldn’t Howard be
exasperated?”
Braden glanced at the gun and smiled calmly. He did not panic at all. Instead, he held Shirley even
tighter. “Mr. Robinson, you must be joking. The word ‘rob‘ should be used when someone takes
things that do not belong to themselves. We are already in love, and she is my legal wife. She belongs to
me. How can you say that I rob your family of her? I’m just going to take her back home!”

Bruce put his finger on the trigger in the blink of an eye and aimed the gun at Braden’s head. He said
fiercely, “I don’t care about the chosen word. Taking my people away means death!
“Your grandfather must have told you that I’ll never miss with this gun. Once I fire, not a single
bullet will be wasted!”
When Shirley saw this, she opened her arms and stood in front of Braden. She said loudly, “Bruce, don’t
be rash. Back then, my grandfather gave you this gun not to let you bully the weak!”
When these words were spoken, everyone gasped.
Yasmin kept winking at Shirley and mouthed, “Good boy, don’t talk nonsense. Stay out of this!”
She knew Bruce’s personality better than anyone else. If he became angry, he might even kill her!
“What did you say?”
Sure enough, Bruce’s face turned ashen, and the target of his anger shifted from Braden to Shirley.
Shirley swallowed hard, and she became even more resolute, “Since my husband is here to pick me up,
I won’t throw a tantrum against him. At the same time, I will be honest with you…”
“Shirley!”
Danny had a bad feeling and wished he could sew her lips together.
Unfortunately, Shirley had no other way to stop this fight, so she could only take the blame by
herself.
She prepared herself and then burst into tears. She cried, “My husband and I love each other very much,
but he doesn’t behave himself, and he always flirted with other women. I was so angry that I divorced
him, and I found Danny as a tool to provoke him to make him care about me!
“Now, he went to Santho City alone for me. He knew that he would die, but he still came here to pick me
up. I was so touched that I was not angry anymore. I wanted to go back with him!”
These touching words stunned everyone.
Even a sensitive guy like Braden was about to be deceived by Shirley, and he subconsciously held
her tighter.
Bruce frowned. After a long time, he understood what had happened. Then, he stared at Shirley with
cold eyes that were like a wolf’s. “In other words, you’ve been using my grandson from the beginning.
You have been acting and deceiving our family, right?”
Shirley took a deep breath and nodded. She said guiltily, “I’m sorry, everyone. It’s my fault.”
“Don’t. Don’t say it!”
Danny wanted to stop Shirley, but it was too late.
He held his forehead with his palm, feeling sorry for Shirley. He thought, she’s finished. Shirley,
you idiot, it is not worth it!
For the sake of a heartless man, it was too foolish of her to put herself in danger!
Danny understood Bruce well. Bruce hated lies. Moreover, he was especially stubborn. If he went crazy,
he could even kill him. How was he going to end this?
“Good!”
Bruce was angered to the point of losing control of his expression. The muzzle was turned from Braden
to Shirley and he said coldly, “I like you and admire you very much, and because you are the
granddaughter of Jason, I want to use all my resources to foster you. But you disappointed me…
“The first rule of our family is that any liars or traitors shall be executed!”
Seeing that Bruce was about to shoot, at the critical moment, Danny stood in front of Shirley and said in
a sloppy manner, “Grandpa, you said that it is a family rule. What does it have to do with outsiders? If
you have to shoot, then shoot me!”
“Do you think I don’t dare?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Of course, you dare. You killed our family without even blinking your eyes. How amazing is that!”
Yasmin was so anxious that she stomped her feet. “Shut up. Do you think the trouble is not enough?”
Chaz was also afraid that Bruce would shoot, so he mustered up his courage and advised, “Dad, please
calm down. Young people have unstable minds, and they always speak without thinking. As elders, we
need to teach them well and give them a chance to change.”
These words worked on Bruce, who was always stubborn. He put away his gun and said to Shirley,
“Shirley, I always think that you are promising. If you’re taught well, in the future, your achievements will
be greater than your grandfather’s and mine. It will be a pity to kill you. So, I will give you a chance…
“As long as you are willing to break up with Braden and wholeheartedly stay with Danny, I will not pursue
your lies.”
Shirley frowned and asked, “You mean that you are willing to let Braden go?”
“I didn’t intend to let the Stewart family go, but if you are willing to marry Danny, I can consider
it…”
Bruce felt that this was the biggest concession he could make.
That woman was Shirley, Jason’s only bloodline. If she were another treacherous guy, she would
have been killed.
“L…”
Shirley felt resigned.
What the heck? Did they treat her as a princess whose marriage was determined because of peace
between countries? Could she say that she didn’t want either of them?
But in the current situation, if she didn’t choose the Robinson family, she and Braden might die on the
spot.
With the ideology of improvisation, Shirley took a step forward and said, “I choose…”
