Chapter 16 Got Your Back

“Or what?”

Shirley turned around, and her eyes fell on the big palm of the man holding her wrist. Her expression was calm. “Could it be possible that Mr. Stewart wants to slap me back?”

Braden didn’t say anything but just looked at her coldly with a deep gaze.

Shirley moved closer to him, put her fair face in front of him, and talked to him jokingly. “I heard that Mr. Stewart was always revengeful. If you are upset, you can also slap me.”

Naturally, he didn’t do anything. He raised his eyes and signaled everyone present to go out.

Soon, only two of them were left in the huge restaurant.

Braden let go of Shirley’s hand and said in a low voice, “I didn’t use you as a tool. Maybe I love you

part was fake, but I meant it when I said sorry.”

Standing in the brightly lit place, he looked so perfectly handsome but far away and unreal.

“Are you apologizing to me?”

Shirley was stunned.

She never thought that there would be a time when the arrogant Mr. Stewart, the mighty Mr.

Stewart, would put down his noble figure and apologize to others.

“No, you heard it wrong.

Braden coughed to hide his embarrassment and arrogantly denied it.

He calmed himself down and brought back his cold, handsome face. “The Stewart Group was

greatly affected by your prank live stream. Since you caused it, you must be responsible to the end.”

“Didn’t I cooperate with you in the show just now and help you change your reputation? What do you want from me now?”

She felt that she had been supportive enough.

If it was not her, anyone else would only make his reputation worse, so they could make another fortune by taking advantage of the situation.

She was still too kind in the end, for the sake of loving him for four

years.

“Now people all over the world are on our side. We could divorce, but we still have to act as a loving couple on the outside.”

Braden said it with confidence. He even tried to control her private life.

“Technically, you are still my wife, so you’d better not get too close to that Parker dude. It’s not gonna be good for you.”

“As compensation, you can continue to use your identity as Mrs. Stewart to go where you want and buy what you want.”

“When someone bullies you, tell me immediately, and I will get you back.”

Shirley couldn’t help opening her mouth when she heard his orderly arrangement.

How could he just make an excuse to control her life? Nobody even asked him to protect her. What a
