When she unveils identities novel (Shirley and Braden)
Chapter 576

Chapter 576 "Let's Cross the Boundary Tonight"

"Today, I'll spare your lives. Remember, if you dare to bully the innocent again, the price will be far greater than this!" Nancy finally calmed down, ceasing her retaliation and warning the trembling inmates. "Thank you for sparing us. We won't dare anymore, really, we won't!" The inmates thanked Nancy, bowing their heads.

Regardless, at least they had learned a lesson. They now understood that there will always be someone better than them and that they shouldn't easily bully anyone.

Nancy and Keith smoothly walked out of the detention center without leaving a trace of evidence behind, as if they had never been there.

'Give me your hand," Keith suddenly requested from Nancy.

'Hand?" Though she didn't understand his intention, Nancy, in a good mood, reached out her hand openly.

Keith's broad palm enveloped Nancy's delicate hand and gently massaged it, saying seriously, "You must be tired from all that fighting. Let me massage it for you."

Under the bright moonlight, his face was so flawlessly handsome, and his fondness for her was evident.

Nancy felt a bit dazed, sensing her heart starting to ripple for him once again. She quickly withdrew her hand.

'Don't do this... You've done enough tonight. If you continue, I'll misunderstand you again," she said earnestly, her expression somewhat helpless.

This man, with his perfect looks and demeanor, was like a knight, providing her with a sense of security and dignity. She wasn't made of stone; how could she not be moved? However, her past experiences taught her that being infatuated with Keith would only bring her trouble. She had to endure and resist!

'Misunderstand what?" Keith's eyes were like a loyal dog's, looking at the suddenly aloof woman with innocence.

"What do you think?" Nancy frowned and couldn't help but complain, "You're so charming. Don't you know it? You keep tempting me, making me fall for you, and then you dismiss it with 'just friends.' Do you think it's fun to tease me like this?"

'Seems like you're falling for me again, huh?' Keith inserted his hands into his pockets, wearing a playful and carefree smile.

Clearly, Nancy's response made him happy. He felt the thrill of playing cat and mouse.

After being out of touch for so long, they suddenly reconnected, and those previous feelings still lingered, intensifying even more. This meant that to her, he was still special and irreplaceable. Just that alone was enough!

'So what if I'm falling for you? Do you replace it fulfilling to play with my emotions as a seasoned player with a novice like me? Isn't it boring?" Nancy didn't evade her feelings for Keith. She just didn't quite understand his mentality. Playing these ambiguous games with her repeatedly, was there any meaning to it?

'Not boring at all. As long as it's you, it's never boring." Keith smiled, showing off his white and tidy teeth. His face was captivating, despite being a troublemaker.

Nancy was fuming and defeated by his words.

"You're not boring, but I am. I'm tired of dealing with you!" She didn't want to act like a fool, playing this ambiguous game with the playboy.

The only way to escape his manipulation was to stay away from him. Like during this period, focus on her career. Men were nothing but a bother. They didn't deserve to consume her emotions! "Anyway, thank you for today. I'll repay you in the future. Goodbye!' Nancy finished speaking and hailed a taxi by the roadside.

She wanted to distance herself from him, not because she disliked him, but because she was too weak and easily swayed by her emotions. Therefore, she needed to forcefully "physically isolate" herself to break free from him.

"If you want to thank me, keep it simple and direct, instead of pushing it to the future. It lacks sincerity." Keith stood in front of her, acting like a brat, not allowing her to leave.

Frowning, Nancy stared at him in confusion. "Then what do you want? I don't have money right now."

Money can wait. I'm hungry and want a late-night snack. Accompany me," Keith straightforwardly expressed his request.

"As a playboy like you, I'm sure one phone call could summon a truckload of girls. Do you still need me to accompany you?" Nancy said.

"Yes, I need you. Will you accompany me?" Keith asked.

"Accompany!" Nancy, lacking in determination, immediately agreed. "I owe you, after all!"

"Then get in the car with me." Keith's smile grew even brighter, and he opened the car door for her.

This feeling of pleasure, he wouldn't trade it even for a dozen beautiful girls.

Under the flickering neon lights of the night, the car drove smoothly, with no pedestrians or other vehicles on the road, unimpeded. Neither of them spoke. They listened to light, cheerful music, allowing the ambiguous feelings to nourish and permeate the air.

Finally, the car entered an underground parking lot in an upscale residential area in the city center.

Nancy sensed that something was amiss. She pressed her back against the seat, nervously looking at the man. "Weren't we going to have a late-night snack? Where are you taking me?" "To my place!" Keith focused on parking the car in its designated spot, skillfully steering the wheel with one hand.

"Why is it your place again? What are you planning?" Nancy asked, her gaze wary.

"What can I plan? I just want to make you happy." Keith sat in the driver's seat, turning to face her. In the dim light, his eyes were as enchanting as a predator's.

Nancy crossed her arms and looked at him guardedly. "I just got out of prison, and you're thinking about that kind of thing? You... You're so shameless!"

'What kind of thing?" Keith burst into laughter, finally understanding what she meant.

'Hahaha, you, woman! You're really cautious..." He couldn't stop laughing, covering his stomach. His eyes revealed uncontainable indulgence. 'You're so adorable; let me tell you!"

'You're still laughing? Believe me, I'll hit you. I'm really good at it. You just witnessed it!" Nancy threatened, raising her hand as if to smack Keith.

However, Keith seized both of her hands and trapped her against the seat. His voice exuded a seductive tone, "Weren't you always unsatisfied with us being 'just friends'? Tonight, let's cross the boundary and have some 'fun'.'
