Chapter 206 It’s Not My Fault
The ne xt day.
Shirley and Nancy came to a high–class seafood restaurant together.
“Shirley, look, that is my boyfriend, Cordell Norman. Isn’t he handsome and elegant?”
Nancy pointed to a young man in the VIP area and said shyly and sweetly
Shirley followed Nancy’s finger and looked over. She saw that a man was anxiously waiting. He was
fiddling with his clothes and tidying up the tableware. He was obviously a little nervous. He probably
attached great importance to this date.
“He looks really gentle. I didn’t expect that the one who finally conquered you was this type of man.”
Shirley teased her with some surprise.
Shirley had always thought that Nancy would like that kind of cool and arrogant guy. After all, the idols
Nancy liked were cool.
However, the gentle type was also good. It was quite complementary to the carefree Nancy, provided
that he was really gentle.
At this time, the man also noticed them. He immediately revealed a warm smile and warmly waved at
them.
“Nancy!”
He went up to them and thoughtfully took the bag from Nancy’s hand. He held her hand and asked her,
“Baby, are you tired? Are you
hungry? I ordered your favorite coconut crab. I hope you like it.”
“Thank you, baby.”
Nancy smiled sweetly and introduced Shirley to him with a proud face. “This is my best friend, Shirley.
We are even closer than
sisters. Let me tell you, Shirley is very powerful. She is beautiful and intelligent. She can run a company
to earn money, and she can
kick hooligans. She has been a top student since she was a child, and she is also a hack…”

Shirley saw that Nancy was going to reveal her background. She quickly interrupted Nancy and looked at
Cordell with a smile. “Hello, I
am Shirley.”
“Hello, I’m Cordell.”
The man pushed up his glasses and responded with a polite smile.
During the whole meal, Cordell was very gentle and considerate. He skinned prawns and crabs for
Nancy the whole time. He was
neither humble nor pushy to Shirley and maintained a polite border.
According to Nancy, Cordell was born and raised abroad. Cordell’s grandfather brought his family abroad
when he was young.
Cordell’s father ran a dental clinic, and his mother was a university professor. He was also a top student
in the philosophy department
of Newchark University. It could be said that he was from an educated and rich family.
From this information, whether it was his appearance, speech, or his family background, there was
almost nothing wrong with Cordell He was almost perfect
However, Shirley felt that this kind of “perfection” made him look a little suspicious.
“Cordell, I heard from Nancy that you are going to get married at the end of the month. Isn’t it too fast…
After all, you’ve just dated
each other for three months”
Shirley took a sip of wine, looked straight into the man’s eyes, and asked sharply.
“It depends on who I meet. It just took Nancy and me three days to decide to be together. When I saw
her for the first time, I was sure
that she would be the only true love in my life, so I want to marry her and protect her for the rest of my
life!”
Cordell and Nancy clenched their fists and looked at each other. They looked so sweet.
“Remember what you said today. If you dare to let her down, I will let you die in a very miserable way.”
When Shirley finished speaking, she clinked his glass with hers and drank it in a forthright manner.
Her love was in a complete mess, and Shirley definitely wouldn’t let her bestie be like her!
After the meal, in order to not be a third wheel, Shirley found an excuse and went away
As Shirley strolled around the mall, she took out her phone and dialed a number. She said, “Kevin, how
are you? My old friend, I want to ask you about someone!”
Kevin Jackson, a friend from the same laboratory when Shirley was studying in college. Their
relationship was very close
Kevin was very open–minded in Newchark. He had a wide network of people and was well–informed
It was not an exaggeration to say that if someone asked Kevin about anyone, from a beggar to a senator,
no matter how high or low his status was, Kevin could dig out all the details about that guy.
“Cordell? I’m familiar with this person!”
Kevin said enthusiastically on the other side of the line, “Give me ten minutes. I’ll sort out all his
information and send it to you.”
“Thank you, bro. I’ll wait for you.”
Shirley hung up the phone and waited patiently.
Even though she had acknowledged Cordell at dinner, she still did not trust him in the depths of her
heart.
Shirley felt that people who were too perfect were the most terrifying. For the sake of Nancy’s lifelong
happiness, Shirley must
investigate carefully!
In the process of waiting, Shirley came to the children’s area on the third floor, preparing to buy some
clothes for the two little guys.
Since Shirley had two little babies, her biggest hobby was buying them a lot of good–looking little jackets
and dresses.
“This, this, and this
Shirley bought five or six sets in one go and asked the shop assistant to wrap them up one by one, so
much so that she could barely

Just as she was about to leave the shop, she bumped into Braden and Amelie.
Fuck!
Shirley couldn’t help but curse in her heart.
What kind of bad luck was this?
Amelie was originally being supported by Braden, looking weak and fragile. Her eyes were watery
When she saw Shirley, her expression immediately changed. She revealed a ferocious expression and
rushed out of control. She grabbed Shirley by the neck and shouted, “Shirley, thank goodness. On the
day of my son’s death anniversary, I met you. Today, I will
kill you and avenge my son!”
“Oh!”
Because Shirley had two hands full of bags, and it happened so suddenly that she had no time to react,
she immediately fell into a disadvantage
“Amelie, calm down Let her go!”
Braden’s handsome face was cold as he rushed forward to stop Amelie
However, Amelie’s resentment was too much. Her ten fingers were so thin that bones could be seen.
She was like a human skeleton. She used all the strength in her body and wished she could break
Shirley’s neck. For a moment, Braden could not stop Amelie at all.
“I will kill you! I will kill you!”
Amelie’s eyes were red, and she howled like an animal. She was determined to strangle Shirley to death.
Soon, many onlookers gathered around and pointed at them.i
“You killed my son. You caused me to lose the chance to be a mother. I will kill you. Go to hell, go to
hell!”
As Amelie screamed, she increased her strength. Shirley could not breathe, and her face turned red,
showing a painful expression.
All of a sudden, Shirley heard a crack. At the brink of death, Shirley finally breathed in fresh air!
Amelie, who had almost strangled Shirley to death, was now lying in Braden’s arms, unconscious.
“What’s going on? She fell down on her own. It’s not my fault!”
Shirley rubbed her sore neck and immediately retreated several feet away, observing the motionless
Amelie.
“She… Why is she not moving? Is she still alive?”
