Chapter 228 Break Up
Shirley did n’t expect that Bennett would come to Seatle City without telling her
“Alisha, I’ll take Ben back. Then you two will be grounded. I’m serious!”
Shirley was so angry that she lost her mind She clenched her fists in front of the camera, and her
knuckles
cracked
Alisha blinked and looked very innocent. She looked at Shirley with her big, round eyes and said,
“Mommy, you promised me that you wouldn’t be angry If you lie, your nose will grow longer. Then you
won’t be pretty Bennett did the wrong thing. He should be grounded, not me ”
“You didn’t tell me that Bennett came to Seatle City. And you lied to me. So you’ll be grounded too!”
Shirley got very angry and stared at Alisha. She finally realized that Alisha had been hiding the truth from
her
these days
In fact, Alisha and Bennett were really clever. It was never easy to deal with them.
Bennett was highly intelligent, and Alisha had high EQ. Once they worked with each other, they could
keep
secrets from Shirley easily.
Besides, Alisha admired Bennett, so she’d listen to Bennett and do anything that he wanted her to do.
“Alisha, you got me really angry this time. Go in that corner and stand now!”
Shirley’s face darkened when she spoke.
Alisha was scared when she saw Shirley’s expression.
Alisha knew she had pushed Shirley’s buttons and walked up to the corner obediently. Then she said,
“Mommy, I’m sorry. Don’t be mad at me. I won’t lie to you anymore.”
Even a hard-hearted person would melt when seeing Alisha’s cute expression
Ewan’s heart melted, and he said, “Shirley, Alisha has realized she made a mistake. Just let her off. The

Shirley tried to calm herself down and asked Alisha, “Since you know you were wrong, I will give you a
chance to make things right. Now tell me, when did you last contact Ben? And where was he at that
time?”
Alisha looked up at her and thought for a while. Then she answered, “I made a video call to Ben last
night It was the last time I saw him. He said he’d go to Daddy’s company to steal the important files you
need And he’d teach the people who offended you a lesson. Ben is very strong. I think he might have
made it now But I called him just now. He didn’t answer the phone. .”
“Did Ben go to the Stewart Group?”
Shirley wasn’t that worried about Bennett before Alisha told her this thing. After all, Bennett was talented
and very intelligent since he was little. When Bennett was three years old, he took a speedboat and left
Sunflower Island alone. He came to Seatle City when he was four. Shirley didn’t think he’d be in danger.
However, Shirley didn’t expect that Bennett would first come to Braden when he arrived at Seatle City
Shirley was afraid that Bennett would get in trouble.
“May, please help me take care of Alisha. I have to go find Bennett now!”
Shirley felt a slight sense of foreboding and hung up the phone. She planned to go to the Stewart Group
and
find Bennett
“You haven’t recovered I’ll go with you.
Ewan quickly caught up with Shirley.
Now, the Stewart Group didn’t have a leader. If Shirley came there, someone would find that Braden had
passed away.
It was a time of crisis Ewan decided to stay by Shirley’s side and threw his full support and protect her
when
she needed help.
Nancy and Cordell stood still and looked at each other.
Cordell was stunned after he saw Shirley make a video call with Alisha.
“Did I hear right? Ms. Wilson’s child came to Seatle City alone and even went to the Stewart Group?”
After Cordell saw Shirley walk away, he immediately began to talk to Nancy.
“Yes.”
Nancy nodded. She was much calmer than Cordell. It seemed that she had been used to it.
“Are you sure her son came to Seatle City alone and is only four years old?”
“More accurately, he’s four years and three months old.”
“But How is that even possible? How could a four-year-old child do this? You look so calm. Aren’t you
afraid
that he’ll be in danger?”
“It wouldn’t be normal for other four-year-old children to do this thing. But it’s normal if it is Bennett who
did it. It’s not the first time that Bennett leaves home without telling Shirley. He’d be grounded every time
Shirley caught him. But Bennet really knows how to escape. He’s an expert. Shirley can do nothing with
him.”
Nancy looked proud when she talked about Bennett. She said with great confidence, “Moreover, we don’t
have to worry that bad guys will pick on him. Bennett is smart. He knows how to deal with those guys.”
Therefore, Nancy was not worried about Bennett now. She was more worried about the Stewart family
and Braden. After all, Braden had been a thorn in Bennett’s side since Bennett was little. He had decided
to teach
Braden a lesson.
“Really? The boy is really amazing. Is he Mr. Stewart’s son?”
Cordell was shocked when he heard Nancy’s words. He was also curious about Bennett’s identity.
Nancy had been careless most of the time. But she was instantly alert when she heard Cordell’s
question.
She frowned and stared at him. “You seem to care about Shirley. You asked me where her kids were
before. Now you want to know who their father is. Why are you so curious about her?”
Cordell got nervous and cleared his throat. Then he said, “So are you jealous? Ms. Wilson is your best
friend, so I’m concerned about her things. I’m curious about her because I care about you.”

“I am not jealous. Listen, don’t you get any ideas. If you dare to get something against her, I won’t let you
off
the hook!”
Nancy felt that Cordell had a secret identity and was pretty questionable.
Nancy wasn’t afraid that Cordell would cause trouble for herself. But she didn’t want to get Shirley in
trouble.
“I’ve been thinking about our relationship these days. Desperate times call for desperate measures. We’d
better not meet each other for now. I’m afraid that you’re up to something!”
After that, Nancy took her bag and was about to leave.
Cordell was anxious and grabbed Nancy’s arm. “Babe, are you going to break up with me? You leave me
without giving me a chance to make up for it. That’s unfair to me.”
“More accurately, we’ll just break up for some time. When everything settles down, I’ll think about
whether we
get back together or not.”
Nancy took a glance at Cordell coldly and then left the restaurant.
Nancy was still obsessed with Cordell, but she could feel that Cordell got close to her purposefully. She
didn’t
want to put Shirley at risk, so she decided to break up with Cordell.
“Don’t go!”
Cordell’s heart was torn when he saw Nancy’s back.
He realized that he had fallen for Nancy.
But Cordell didn’t know what he was supposed to say to Amelie if he met her.
Suddenly, his phone rang. It was Amelie.
He hesitated for a long time before answering the phone.
“What are you doing? Why didn’t you answer the phone?”
Amelie frowned and said impatiently, “Go to Sutor Wharf now. I want you to send a special thing to a
person.”
