Chapter 172
“Fuck, Nadine blocked you again! Brad, you must be an asshole. Just what vile stuff did you do to make
her hate you so much?
“Oh well, I guess I’ll just post it on social media. Nadine’s my friend, so she’ll definitely see it. I’ll keep you. company for a bit longer until she sees the post.”
The atmosphere in the hospital immediately lightened up after Brad left. Nadine felt particularly relieved,
in fact.
To be honest, she still felt somewhat reluctant and regretful when she handed the divorce agreement to Brad. Six years was more than enough to develop affection for pets, let alone for a person.
But still, it turned out that she’d overestimated her position in his heart.
Not only did he not show a trace of reluctance nor attempt to hold onto her, but he even demanded. compensation for the years he’d spent in this marriage. She knew he wasn’t serious, but she still took great offense at the remark.
He did spend six years of his youth on this marriage, but hadn’t she done the same as well?
Nadine had given her prime and affection to Brad in the past six years, only to earn her nothing but scars.
When he bought her a cake to celebrate her birthday, she still fantasized that perhaps this marriage hadn’t reached the point of no return. He might’ve still cared for her.
But Brad left her in the middle of sex without a second thought when Jean called him. At this point, she clearly saw what she was to him.
She didn’t cause a scene. Instead, she quietly left Phoenix Villa with Sean. Nadine came to learn that a genuine heartbreak was silent. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Spotting Sean and Cameron hiding behind a tree not far away, she waved at them. “Alright, stop peeking.
and come out!”
Cameron had no choice but to bring Sean to her. Looking sheepish, he said, “Mrs. Hamilton, I didn’t mean
- to. Sean insisted on watching.”
Nadine had no intention of blaming him. “Alright, I know you’re busy. You’re still working overtime on a
weekend. Go ahead with your work. I’m bringing Sean back now.”
Sensing that she wasn’t going to hold him accountable Cameron nodded hastily. “I’ll be off then. Goodbye, Mrs. Hamilton.”
Nadine turned toward Sean once he left. “Sean, what did I tell you? How could you eavesdrop on other people’s conversation?”
Pouting, Sean met her gaze and exclaimed, “But I didn’t! I was listening to it openly. Mommy, you did great earlier! You shouldn’t give in to Daddy’s bad temper. You have to keep him in check!”
His surprisingly mature remark eventually dispelled her frustration. Ruffling his hair, she chided, “Why,
you! You speak like an adult. I’ll do as you say, alright?
“Let’s go say goodbye to Grandpa Adam. We’ll visit him again tomorrow.”
It was getting late, and Adam needed to take his medications on time. Thus, she sent him back to hist ward with the butler before she returned to Rose Garden with Sean.
Nadine had been staying temporarily at Avery’s place. Avery refused to charge her rent, so she resorted to doing house chores for Avery instead. She didn’t want to end up too much of a bother, after all.
She dashed into the kitchen as soon as she got home, busying herself to prepare something nice for Avery and Sean. She kept herself busy until 9:30 pm, when she could finally relax.
Sean was already sound asleep. Meanwhile, Avery and Nadine lay next to each other on the spacious sofa in the living room, applying face masks as they scrolled through their phones.
Soon, Avery spotted Alex’s post. She quickly showed it to Nadine, exclaiming, “Babe, it’s that asshole,
Brad!
“He’s drunk. Looks like he has collapsed on the sofa. If this post wasn’t from Alex, I would’ve thought he’s
dead.”
