Chapter 452 A Helpless Romantic "What the hell?"
Nancy was staring at the big lamb leg and swallowing her saliva. She was ready to have a hearty meal.
Keith suddenly mentioned her, which made her a little overwhelmed.
"I still remember your heroic words on the speedboat. I rarely admire anyone, especially not women.
After listening to your words, I admire you so much. Don't let me down!"
"What heroic words? I have too many heroic words. How can I remember them so clearly?"
Nancy deliberately pretended to be confused. She changed the topic, "Hey, this lamb leg looks really
good..."
"If you don't remember, I can remind you. For example, something like having a knife in the hand,
castrating a man, making someone kneel down to apologize, and so on."
Keith crossed his long legs and said in a cynical tone. It seemed that he wouldn't keep Nancy short of
trouble, and he kept fanning the flames.
"Did I say that?"
Nancy was terrified and broke out in cold sweat.
It was true that when she was on the speedboat, she had the determination to confront Braden. But
when she got off the speedboat and saw Braden's cold and noble temperament, cowardice beat her
and she regretted it.
"What are you guys talking about? Why do I feel that you two are strange?"
As Shirley cut the roasted lamb leg, she sensed something unusual, like ... love had just sprouted.
Wasn't this a coincidence? Wasn't today's party just to match these two people?
Shirley quickly leaned her foot against Braden and called out, "Braden, don't just sit there and wait for
others to serve you. You have to do your best as a host and toast to my friend and yours, wishing them
a happy future... Oh, no, wish them forever young and passionate!"
"Yes, darling!"

Braden poured glasses of champagne for Nancy and Keith. With a rare enthusiasm, he said, "On
behalf of myself and my wife, I propose a toast to you first."
Keith teased, "Braden, this is not a business deal. Don't be so formal. You can't drink too much. Just
watch me and Nancy..."
As Keith spoke, he chinked Nancy's wine glass and smiled. "I heard that you can drink well, and I can
drink well. Why don't we have a showdown tonight?"
Nancy turned her head and refused, not giving him any respect. "I won't compete with a playboy."
"Then it looks like you can't wait to perform?"
Keith looked at Braden seriously and said, 'Braden, Nancy has a performance here..."
"Fine, fate brings us here. I won't say anything. Look at me."
Nancy changed dramatically as she raised her head and drank the champagne in the glass.
Keith nodded in satisfaction. "Nancy, you're really flexible. I like it.'
He began to think that Nancy was a little interesting.
Nancy would always bluff and surrender so quickly. This contrast was also very cute.
"Let's have another round!"
"Come on!"
They began to drink one bottle after another. With her grudge against Keith, Nancy decided to slog her
guts out. She wanted to drink Keith down.
Braden, Shirley, Bennett, and Alisha were stunned by the sight.
Braden said, "No wonder she is your best friend. She can drink as much wine as you can."
Shirley said, "Keith is your best friend, but when drinking, he can't even win against a woman."
Alisha asked, "Are Auntie Nancy and Uncle Keith in a relationship?'
Bennett said, "I don't know if they are in a relationship or not. But they must be crazy."
Seeing that Nancy's behavior was becoming more and more unrestrained, Shirley felt that something
was wrong with the situation.
No, if this continued, these two people would probably not be a couple and could only be friends.
In fact, Nancy had been single for so many years because of being extremely straightforward and
generous. Those men who confessed to her and had an ambiguous relationship with her were all
treated as friends by her.
This time, Shirley could not let her miss the relationship again.
"It's boring to drink alone. Why don't we play a word game?"
With a wave of her arm, Shirley stopped Nancy and Keith, whose eyes were red from drinking.
"What's the point of this? It's not interesting!"
Nancy and Keith both surprisingly disagreed, showing that they were not interested in that.
"How could my wife's suggestion be uninteresting?"
Braden put on a cold face and said, "I think we must play.’
"Fine. Let's play."
Nancy and Keith gave in again.
Nancy secretly complained to Keith, "What's wrong with Braden? He completely followed Shirley’s
every word. It's scary."
Keith was not surprised. "Easy. My Braden is a helpless romantic. It's very hard for him to pretend to be
a distant and cold man in the past. Just cooperate with him."
Shirley clapped her hands and said, "Okay, let's start now. We'll list the words that we think of. I'll begin.
Today we're going to the house of fruits. What fruits can you see?"
"Watermelon," Braden said.
Nancy said, "Peach."
Alisha said, "Strawberry."
Bennett said, "Apple."
Keith said, "Banana.’

After a round, Alisha was finally stuck for words. As a punishment, she performed a dance for
everyone.
"Continue!"
Shirley was excited about the game. They then talked about houses of vegetables, cities, flowers, and
so on. Everyone had lost, but Braden was the only one who won each round.
"It seems that this game is not difficult. I haven't drunk any wine!"
Braden said in a somewhat showing-off manner. It was as if he had forgotten that he had suffered a
crushing defeat when he played such a game before. He had drunk so much that he didn't even
remember who he was.
"How arrogant!"
Keith smiled. "Braden, this time, I'll come up with a question. Let's see if you dare to be so arrogant."
"Be my guest. My vocabulary is more than enough to deal with you,"
Braden said confidently.
"That's good...’
Keith tried to hold back his laughter. "Today, we are going to the house of our ex. Who can you see?"
Braden was speechless.
Shirley had no idea what to say.
And so did Nancy.
As expected, Braden was the first to lose. He needed to be punished by the one who came up with the
question.
"Keith, you're so mean."
Braden's eyes were as cold as arrows, and he gave a warning with a fake smile. "You'd better behave
yourself.
"You are not allowed to threaten and intimidate the questioner. Otherwise, I can only ask for help."
Keith winked at Shirley.
Braden immediately became honest. "How do you want to punish me? Just tell me directly."
"Don't be nervous, Braden. We are best friends after all. I just want to chat with you sincerely..."
Keith immediately asked, "Please answer your wife honestly. What do you fear the most now?"
