Chapter 78
hapter 78
The little girl, who was only five years old, was naive and blunt. She said whatever was on her mind without any scruples
Clinging to her father, she said, “Daddy, let’s go home. Sean’s dad is so scary.”
The man glanced at his daughter and then at the stern–faced Brad. He quickly apologized. “Sir, I’m really
sorry. Kids say the silliest things. Please don’t take it to heart. We’ll be leaving now.”
With that, he picked up the little girl and scurried away. Looking at the speed with which he ran, one would think he was being chased by a ghost.
Brad’s expression darkened further as if he was shrouded by dark clouds. He watched the man flee with contempt before striding over to his one–of–a–kind Aston Martin with Sean in his arms,
Once in the car, Cameron didn’t ask any questions, nor did he instruct the driver to leave. They simply
waited in silence. Even though Brad was visibly angry, leaving without Nadine would further upset him,
Watching Brad take away her beloved son, Nadine felt compelled to apologize to Tyler. “I’m sorry,” Tyler. I didn’t know he would come. Let’s reschedule. I’m sorry.”
In fact, she didn’t want to see Brad at all. She wanted to be as far away from him as possible. But…
The striking silver Aston Martin was blaring its horn loudly. Following that, the car window rolled down,
revealing Brad’s gloomy face.
His gaze, which was fixed on Nadine, was so cold that it could practically turn her into ice. “Are you
coming or not?”
Knowing he was growing impatient and that Sean was in his car, Nadine reluctantly crossed the street and got into the car. The car sped off before she could even close the door fully.
Nadine hurriedly shut the door properly and fastened her seatbelt.
Aware that Brad’s anger was brewing, she decided to avoid provoking him. Instead, she patted Sean’s
head and casually chatted with him.
“Baby, what did you learn in class today? Did anything interesting happen in school?”
Sean leaned in closer to his mommy, his dark eyes sparkling with mischief. “Guess!”
He deliberately kept a distance from Brad as he snuggled up to Nadine. The mother and son chatted happily as if Brad didn’t exist.
This further fueled Brad’s frustration and caused his anger to soar. He slammed the table between the
back seats hard. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Despite the ruckus he made, Nadine and Sean just glanced at him briefly before resuming their
conversation.
This feeling of being ignored was infuriating. Brad cleared his throat and said, “Let’s go have dinner
Chappa
together. I know a place with a good seafood buffet.”
The mother and son duo just glanced at him, neither of them saying anything. They had no interest in seeing Brad, let alone having dinner with him.
Nadine refused his offer. “No thanks.”
Brad had never been so outrightly rejected before. His anger simmered, nearing the point of eruption. At this moment, his phone rang. Without thinking, he answered it.
Jean’s voice immediately rang out in the back of the car. “Brad, check the posts online. Those vicious netizens are accusing me of destroying your family, but you know that’s not true. I just love you too much
and want to spend more time with you. That’s all.”
