Chapter 498 Not Her Type
Keith paused while trimming vegetables. His playful smile became more complicated as he openly
admitted, “Bro, you’re indeed clever. I do like your sister, so I don’t dare to upset you. Otherwise, I
might never see her again.”
“I know you’re a hopeless romantic, just like Braden. For a woman, you’ll betray your bros without
thinking. If Braden finds out, he’ll surely kill you.”
Having said that, Larry had a complicated smile. “But now he might not have the mood to care about
these things. If you pursue my sister at this time, it’s an excellent opportunity.”
“My bro Braden… I mean, what happened to that scumbag Braden? Wasn’t he holding a beauty in his
arms, enjoying his life? Why would he be in a bad mood?”
“Why do you care so much? Haven’t you already betrayed him?”
“No, no, I’m just curious if he’s really that bad to hold another beauty, and if a heartless person will also
be abandoned by others.”
“Don’t worry. He’s already gotten his retribution.”
Keith sensed from Larry’s triumphant tone that Braden must have encountered some trouble. Just as
he was about to inquire further, Shirley entered the room.
“Keith, come out. I want to talk to you.’
“With me?”
Keith looked at the domineering Shirley, who was like a mob boss, and felt flattered and a little
frightened.
“That’s right. You. Come with me.”
Shirley waved at the man and left without waiting for his response.
“Uh, bro, I…”
Keith looked back at Larry, pretending to seek permission.
“Go ahead. The things between you won’t work out anyway.”
Larry waved his hand, ruthlessly saying.
In his opinion, among all the men in the world, only Braden had the ability to touch his sister’s
heartstrings. Other men were just wasting their efforts and didn’t need to be guarded.
Not only did they not need to be guarded, but they could also be ’used’…
After all, Keith was Braden’s longtime friend, and no one knew better than him how to hurt Braden.
Shirley and Keith made their way towards the backyard of the pawnshop, and finally to a quiet and dark
corner.
This place was generally not approached by anyone unless they were being punished.
“There’s no one here. Say it. What are you up to?”
Shirley crossed her arms and asked Keith directly.
“What am I up to? I find that you and your brother are really blood-related. Both of you are so
foolhardy.”
Keith smiled and couldn’t help teasing.
“Stop changing the subject. I mean what’s going on between you and Nancy?”
“She…”
Larry’s playful smile faded a bit, and he said lightly, “Nothing special. Just friends fooling around.”
“Friends fooling around?”
Shirley was furious and punched Keith directly. “Fooling around? Do you think you’re still a baby? Just
tell me, do you like her or not?”
“Yes, I like her. Not only do I like her, but I also like you. I like every beautiful girl and like to fool around
with them. Is there anything wrong with that?”
“I can’t believe it. You’re indeed a playa as well as scum. So you’re saying you don’t actually like
Nancy. You just want to tease her, play with her, and deliberately flirt with her, right?”
Shirley sharply questioned. She had to figure out Keith’s feelings for Nancy before she could help
Nancy make a choice.
“I refuse to answer that question.”
Keith looked at Shirley indifferently. There was a hint of oppression in his coxcomb manner. “You’re not
my girlfriend. I have no obligation to explain my feelings to you.”
“Keith, don’t try to evade the key issue with your playful attitude. If you’re a man, answer me directly. I
know you’re not the kind of scumbag who plays with women’s feelings. You’re just hiding behind a
mask, pretending to be a scumbag.” Shirley hit the nail on the head.
She still remembered how Keith had nearly died in a fire trying to save her. No matter how scummy he
pretended to be, it couldn’t conceal the fact that he was a good man at heart. She wasn’t a fool; she
could see right through him.
“Heh, what does it matter to you whether I’m a scumbag who plays with women’s feelings? You’re
being indignant. It’s easy for me to misunderstand.’
“Misunderstand what??”
“You tell me.”
Keith still had that casual attitude, stepping closer to Shirley. He lifted her chin with a finger and smiled
wickedly. “When a woman pays too much attention to a man, it can make him think that she has
feelings for him… I had improper thoughts about you back then, and now that you’re single again, it’s
hard for me not to rekindle those feelings!” Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“Eww… Are you out of your mind?”
Shirley felt disgusted and pushed Keith away abruptly.
Damn it. This guy was just like Nancy said. He flirted with any women he met. He was a top-level
playa, and it was impossible to see through his true thoughts.
“Keith, let me warn you. I don’t care what you’re really thinking, but if you’re interested in Nancy, you
should make your intentions clear to her as soon as possible. She may seem carefree, but she’s
actually very sensitive and a bit insecure, especially since her last relationship was a huge blow to her.
She cant get hurt again. If you’re not interested in her, don’t flirt with her and cause her to
misunderstand the relationship. She’ll take it seriously, and that’s a form of harm too!”
Shirley stood with her hands on her hips, seriously warning Keith. Keith’s eyes darkened slightly, and
he asked, ’What happened in her last relationship? Tell me about it.”
“What? Curious now?”
Shirley sensed something unusual and immediately smiled meaningfully. “Can I also assume that a
man who pays too much attention to a woman means that he has a thing for her?”
Keith didn’t admit or deny it, but he seriously asked Shirley, “How bad was her ex? To what extent?”
“Um, well, he was an elite from an American-style education. Very gentlemanly and elegant. A super
academic achiever. Nancy was really into him…”
“Heh, elite, gentlemanly, elegant, academic achiever…”
Keith’s tone was full of disdain. His gaze carrying an aggression that even he hadn’t realized. He
sneered coldly, “So that’s the type of guy she’s into?”
“Yeah, now that you mention it, I might have been worrying over nothing…” Shirley replied.
“What do you mean?”
Shirley said with a hint of pride, “Because you’re not her cup of tea. She’s not interested in you at all,
so naturally, she won’t be hurt by you.”
“Is that so?”
Keith’s handsome face briefly showed a trace of frustration, but he quickly masked it with an air of
nonchalance.
“I believe that’s what she thinks too… Right, Nancy?”
The man said with half of a smile. His gaze passed Shirley, looking towards Nancy, who had been
hiding in the shadows for a while.
