Chapter 192 Time Is the Best Antidote
“I didn’t expect you to have Braden’s number.”
Shirley was a little surprised.
In her memory, Braden was cold and distant. He wasn’t a kind one. He usually wouldn’t give people.
his phone number, not to mention help get someone a job.
Shirley thought, Roland is my uncle, so Braden is showing some special care.
As Roland called Braden, he said with pride, “That’s right. I am his elder. And we can be considered a
family. He will still give me some face!”
Unfortunately, Roland was soon slapped in the face.
The phone rang for a long time. There was no one answering it. When he called again, the call was
directly cut off.
Shirley crossed her arms and couldn’t help but laugh. “I can see that you really have a lot of faces!”
“Ahem, ahem!”
Roland coughed awkwardly and said, “He must be busy. He’s the president of a big company. He must
be working on something. I will call him again at noon. Even if he refuses to give me face, he has to
give you some, right?”
“Roland, let me remind you that I have been divorced from him for so many years. If you want Braden
to help you, just go and ask him. Don’t use me as an excuse.”
Shirley’s tone was very serious.
“I understand. I understand. Sorry for speaking nonsense.”
Roland slapped himself twice and said humbly, “However, you have to let me treat you and Mr. Stewart
to a meal today. For so many years, I have felt guilty for what you and your mother have suffered. I
have changed. I want to live a stable life. I want to be a good father, a good husband, and a good
uncle. If I don’t treat you to a meal, I will never be at ease for the rest of my life. Just help me for the
sake of your mother, okay?”
Shirley said nothing.
She just sized up Roland.
She could see that her good for nothing uncle from before had changed a lot.
Before, he only wore clothes from famous brands, though he was poor Now, he dressed ordinarily
It could be seen that he was working hard to support his family
Iris only had one younger brother She treated Roland as a son. She hoped that Roland could achieve
something.
Back then, when the Wilson family was in a crisis, Roland cut ties because he was afraid of being
affected. But if he really changed, Shirley could consider forgiving him.
Roland guessed carefully since Shirley didn’t reply. “Shirley, do you still have feelings for Mr. Stewart?
So you don’t dare to face him and refuse to eat with him?”
Shirley sneered, “Do I look like so?”
“Yes!”
Roland analyzed the situation as an experienced person. “Relationships are always like this. A man
and a woman break up, then they get back together again…
“You must still have feelings for him if you don’t dare to see him. If that were the case, I would help you
two get back together. Anyway, I could tell that Mr. Stewart also still has feelings for you.”
Roland’s words were reasonable, and Shirley could not refute him for a moment.
She suddenly felt that she was too petty, so she shrugged her shoulders freely, “OK, it’s just a meal.
I can do it.”
Anyway, she had to meet Braden sooner or later. She had better be more natural. And she could
return the pedant to him.
“That’s great. Mollie and her mother will be happy to see you back. Especially Mollie. You are her idol.
She always talks about you and often urges me to come to you. I’m almost tired of that.
“Mollie should be 18 years old this year, right?”
“Of course. It was her 18th birthday days ago. Her wish was to have you come back. I didn’t expect that
her wish would come true so quickly.”
“Then hurry back. I also want to see Mollie and her mother.” Shirley nodded. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Mollie Otway was Roland’s only daughter. She liked Shirley since childhood.
For the past few years, there seemed to be something wrong with Roland’s brain. He didn’t allow Mollie
to contact Shirley. Otherwise, Shirley and Mollie might be even closer.
Roland’s house was in an ordinary neighborhood in the east of the city. It wasn’t big. It was normal
but warm.
When Shirley entered the room, Roland’s wife, Serena Otway, was picking vegetables in the kitchen.
Mollie was singing in the rooni
“Come out quickly Let’s see who is coming!”
Roland shouted with a smile on his face.
Serena and Mollie were shocked when they saw Shirley in the sitting room.
“Ah, Shirley! It’s really you! You finally come back. I have been looking forward to seeing you for a long
time.”
Mollie held Shirley and says excitedly, “Shirley, we haven’t seen each other for almost seven or eight
years. Where have you been these years? Daddy goes to wait for you in your parents‘ tomb every year
He said that no matter where you went, you would go visit your parents. And you are really here today!”
Shirley laughed. “Mollie, you have grown up. You were still a little girl when I saw you last time.”
Mollie was eighteen years old this year She was very energetic and full of vitality.
“Serena, long time no see.”
Shirley greeted Serena politely.
“Hello!”
Serena was a good woman. When she saw Shirley, she nervously wiped her hands on the apron. She
said, “Good to have you back.”
”
“Okay, okay. Don’t talk here any longer. Today is a special day. Go and prepare the wine and dishes.
Not only Shirley came, but Mr. Stewart would also come.”
Roland urged Serena to cook.
“What? Mr. Stewart would come too? That’s…”
Serena was so nervous that she didn’t know what to say.
To them, Braden was a deity who they couldn’t reach. They couldn’t imagine the scene of Braden
coming to their small apartment.
“What? Mr. Stewart is Shirley’s ex–husband. He has been good to me over the years. It’s normal for
him to have a meal with us. Hurry up to prepare the meal. Don’t embarrass our family
“Okay, okay. I’m on it.”
Serena went back to the kitchen to prepare the meal seriously.
Molne said frankly, “Dad, are you sure that Mr Stewart will come? You are a small potato while hes a
big potato. Why should he come
“Little girl, you really know nothing
Roland glared at Mollie and sad, “Even if he dislikes me, he has to show some respect to Shirley
Shirley has been missing for four years. Do you think he will come or not?”
Mollie nodded. “That’s right. Although Mr. Stewart is cold, he really takes special care of our family. If
not for him, I wouldn’t have been able to go to Seatle Academy of Dramatic Arts. He must still have
feelings for Shirley
Mollie and Roland talked about how deep the feeling Braden had for Shirley was. When Shirley heard
this, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Time was the best antidote. It had been four years. They had gone separate ways. Feelings didn’t exist
between them any longer
Roland took out his phone and said, “I’ll call Mr. Stewart again. The answer will be revealed
immediately!”
This time, the phone only rang a few times before it was connected.
On the other side of the line, a man’s cold and low voice sounded, “What is it?”
