When she unveils identities novel (Shirley and Braden)

Irving was silent for a long time. He hesitated for a long time and finally heaved a sigh, "Forget it. Shirley, if you want to know about that, I can tell you. I believe that you are the only one in this world who really cares about Larry and sincerely hopes that he could become happy." "I can do everything to solve the question that troubles Larry..." Irving took a sip of wine. He knew that he would anger tarry if he told Shirley about that. However, he planned to do that. He began to slowly narrate this event. "You know that Larry was abandoned since he was a child and was adopted by a poor couple in a small fishing village. The couple had a son and a daughter, so they were reluctant to adopt Larry. They beat and scolded tarry since he was young. They didn't give tarry food, and they asked Larry to do heavy work every day..." Irving was also born in this small fishing village. Although his family was poor, he was the only child in the family. He didn't have to worry about food and clothing. "When I was young, Larry was actually very popular with our children because he looked handsome and looked like a rich boy. I liked to play with him very much. We became good friends gradually. Sometimes I stole some food at home and gave it to tarry." "Thank you, Irving. You must have been a ray of light in his dark childhood at that time. No wonder you are intimate friends!" Shirley regarded Irving as Larry's savior. She was very grateful to him. "No, no, I can't be considered as the light in his dark childhood. Miss Joann is light. It's a pity that this light is both salvation and destruction. What troubles Larry for so many years is Miss Joann!" So many years had passed. WTien Irving mentioned the name 'Joann', he still had mixed feelings. "Joann?" Shirley murmured the name. In fact, tarry often mentioned his past life in the small fishing village. He talked about his perverted adoptive father, his adoptive mother, and the arrogant and domineering brother who often beat him violently. It seemed that he never mentioned Joann. "Joann is the youngest daughter of the adoptive parents. She was the only one in the family who regarded Larry as a

family..." Irving recalled Joann. His eyes became soft unconsciously as if he recalled the most beautiful things in the world, "Joann is not tall, and she is as delicate as a doll. She always smiles softly and sweetly. She looks noble, which is incompatible with the poor fishing village, tarry looks noble too. So, Joann and Larry are more like siblings. They cared about each other. Whenever Larry was scolded or beaten, Joann always stood in front of him and did not allow others to bully him." "I remember Larry' was hacked with a knife by his lunatic brother one time. In the middle of the night, Joann's supported Larry with her thin body and begged for help from house to house. Some merciless people drive them away. She knelt and kowtowed in front of the door of their house. Finally, someone saved Larry! "I'm ashamed!" Hearing the story between Joann and Larry, Shirley became very interested in Joann. She wanted to meet this angellike girl and express her gratitude to her.
