Chapter 457 You Are Risking Your Neck

Nancy also opened her arms and blocked Shirley's way. "If Keith is telling the truth, going to them now will be no different from risking your neck. I won't let you take that risk!”

Shirley was very moved by Nancy and Keith's worry for her, but she felt that they had overreacted a little. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. I am there to resolve the conflict, and that's all. How is that risking my neck? If anyone's neck is risked, it will be theirs, not mine. You know what I am capable of."

"Of course, I know what you are capable of, but you don't know what the Gilmore family is capable of. To be more precise, you don't know what your enemy is capable of."

Keith's eyes were serious, which was a rare thing. He said, "Do you know how many people in the entire Seatie City want to take down Braden? The Gilmore family is just the tip of the iceberg."

"So what? If one stands in our way, I'll take one down. If there are two, I'll get them both."

Shirley clenched her fists, her beautiful face showing absolute confidence.

"That's just your idealized idea. They couldn't take Braden down after all these years. It wasn't because they weren't powerful enough, or because the Stewart family was too influential, but because Braden never had a weakness. Now that with you and the kids in the picture, he has a sore spot. No one knows if he can win outright this time..."

Keith could always see things through. He let out a long sigh and said, "My guess is that he left Sunflower Island suddenly and did not contact you so that you and the kids would be absolutely safe. If you go back now, you will be a burden to him."

"Your words make sense, but I don't want to be a coward hiding in a safe shell and leaving him alone. I want to be a general. I want to fight with him, to advance and retreat with him."

Shirley said stubbornly.

"No! You're not thinking straight, and I'm not letting you go!"

Nancy put her arms around Shirley's waist and refused to let Shirley go any further. At the same time, Nancy’s eyes were red, and she asked Keith for help. "Do something! Talk some sense into her. She can be so stubborn sometimes!"

Keith motioned for Nancy to let go of Shirley and then slowly said, "If you insist on leaving, we won't stop you. But before you do, let me ask you something. Have you ever watched a TV show?"
