Chapter 135 You’re Lying!
Shirley gave a cold smile and couldn’t help feeling disappointed.
She didn’t expect Braden would ask her such a stupid question.
Since he asked, it meant that he didn’t trust her wholeheartedly. There would always be a gap between
him and Shirley.
“Well, I don’t think I need to explain. If you believe me, you won’t ask me for an explanation. If you
don’t, it’s useless to do so. Is that right?”
Shirley pulled back her hand. With an indifferent look on her delicate face, she said in a casual
voice, “Believe it or not, I didn’t hurt Cherry.”
After she finished speaking, she turned around and left without hesitation. It seemed that she did
not care about how Braden thought of her at all.
Shirley didn’t mind being regarded as a vicious murderer by Braden. After all, he had been thinking
lowly of her.
With his brows knitted, Braden watched Shirley leave smartly and couldn’t help feeling somewhat
angry.
On one hand, he was annoyed because of Cherry’s accident. On the other hand, he was angry that
something seemed to have been out of his control.
He had been able to control everything easily, but Shirley was an exception now.
He didn’t know whether Shirley pushed Cherry into the sea or not. What made him angrier was that
she was not even willing to explain it to him. Clearly, she didn’t care about him at all.
As the sun gradually sank to the sea, it was dark everywhere.
Only Braden and Hester were left on the beach.
Hester was happy. She knew that it was a good chance.

Hester woke up the nerve to walk to Braden’s side and asked carefully.
With his eyes deep and cold, Braden replied in an unpleasant voice, “Do we know each other?”
He had never paid attention to the entertainment industry, so he did not know that Hester was the most
popular actress currently. She had lots of fans, and she was extremely influential.
Hester ogled Braden and tried hard to fascinate him, saying, “You probably don’t know me, but I have
admired you for a long time. I am about to cooperate with the Stewart Group. We will have a lot
of opportunities to meet in the future. Do you know that?”
“What do you mean?”
Braden narrowed his eyes and observed Hester.
Hester could indeed be viewed as a beauty, and she apparently didn’t have any plastic surgeries.
Her thin eyebrows were black, and her nose was straight. With her small and rosy mouth, she was like a
classic beauty in a painting.
“I’ll become the new brand ambassador of the Stewart Group. We will have a lot of chances to meet
each other. I have been looking forward to it for a long time. I wonder if Mr. Stewart will be the
same.”
Hester smiled slightly and said in a way neither servile nor overbearing.
She was confident in her appearance and had studied Braden’s preferences carefully. In fact, Hester
knew clearly what Braden’s ideal girlfriend would be like, and Hester had been imitating her.
It was not an exaggeration to say that whatever Hester did in the entertainment industry was to approach
Braden.
After all, the best choice of a female star was to marry into a wealthy family.
Braden’s expression didn’t change. He ignored Hester’s seduction and asked coldly, “Do you have any
conflict with Shirley?”
Hester’s smile froze on her face. She asked awkwardly, “Mr. Stewart, what do you mean by that?”
“You seemed to hate her just now. I wonder if you have trouble with her. Can you tell me directly?”
Hester had a guilty look and said, “You are mistaken.
“To put it bluntly, I have never heard of Ms. Wilson before. I just told you the truth. I have no grudge
against her.”
Braden got eyes like a hawk. He sneered, “You are lying!
“Didn’t you just say that you admired me for a long time? It’s impossible that you don’t know about
Shirley. She is my ex–wife.”
“L..”
Hester was instantly speechless.
She had been in the entertainment industry for too long and was used to lying through her teeth.
She didn’t expect Braden to be this acute. He found the holes in her words, which made her
embarrassed.
Hester tried to excuse herself, “I… I mean that I didn’t have a chance to contact Ms. Wilson before.
Naturally, I know her. To many netizens and some workers in our industry, you and Ms. Wilson are a
good match and are addressed as Summery Memories.”
“Since
you admire me, you are jealous that Shirley is close to me. So, you have been targeting her from the
beginning and deliberately took the photo to lead everyone to think that she pushed
Cherry into the sea. Am I right?”
Braden looked at Hester coldly and asked.
In an instant, Hester’s face turned red. She was shocked and stammered, “No, don’t get me wrong. I
didn’t…”
As a famous actress, she spent all her time in the vanity fair and had known all kinds of big shots.
However, she had never felt so helpless before.

Braden was extremely domineering. His eyes were so sharp that he seemed to be able to see through
everything. It was impossible to deceive him.
“Do you think that you can replace Shirley after putting her in trouble?”
Braden’s eyes were filled with disdain as he snorted. “Even if I don’t know Shirley, I won’t fall in love with
a woman like you. You’d better stop playing tricks.”
There were lots of women trying to tempt him all these years. He could tell what they meant to go at
a glance.
Hester was beautiful. However, she was not beautiful enough to achieve her ambition.
Her eyes glittered with greed. They were not pure at all.
Actually, all the women who wanted to get close to him had greed in their eyes.
Shirley was the only exception. Without desire and greed, her eyes were as clean as a baby’s.
That was why he had special feelings for Shirley.
“Mr. Stewart, you are truly arrogant.”
Hester looked at the man’s cold back, clenched her fists, and said angrily.
His words were like a slap to her face, making her feel ashamed.
Anyway, she had a high status in the entertainment industry. She had never been insulated like this.
“I do admire you, but I hate your arrogance. No wonder your first love would abandon you and your ex
wife would divorce you!”
Braden stopped.
He did not expect Hester to be this bold. How dare she say those words to him!
Hester sneered, “You think that your ex–wife is innocent, do you? Then, Ms. Tierney and I wronged her
at the same time. Does that make sense?
“Ms. Tierney has nothing to do with Ms. Wilson. How would she use her life to slander Ms. Wilson?”
Braden was lost in thoughts.
He frowned.
He had to admit that he felt a little puzzled after hearing Hester’s words.
He thought, Shirley, did you push Cherry into the sea? Why didn’t you give me an explanation? Or do you feel ashamed?
