Nadine turned her face and looked into the distance. “If there’s nothing else, you should spend more time
with Ms. Sawyer. She needs you. I’ll take care of Grandpa.”
Without waiting for Brad’s answer, she turned and walked back to the ward. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
When the incident happened, she hadn’t told Brad, and she saw no reason to tell him now.
She hadn’t told him because she knew her place in his heart all too well.
Brad didn’t love her and didn’t care about her. Even if she told him about the incident, he would only think
she was playing the sympathy card to gain his attention. So, why humiliate herself?
Nadine walked back to Adam’s ward, leaving Brad smoking alone by the window.
Watching her decisive departure, Brad felt a sudden wave of irritation. He bit down on his cigarette,
deforming it.
A few minutes later, his special assistant, Cameron Gomez, called.

Cameron continued, “Mrs. Hamilton was quick–thinking. She grabbed some rocks from the ground and threw them at the car’s windshield, smashing it in several places.
“The driver couldn’t see clearly and fled when he saw other cars passing by. I checked the car. It had a fake plate. Ashton is handling it now. We should have results soon.”
Even though Cameron couldn’t see Brad’s face, he sensed something was off.
He could feel a murderous intent. Brad was this quiet only when he was enraged.
After a long silence, Brad finally said, “Keep investigating.”
After hanging up, Brad strode toward Adam’s room.
For some reason, he felt deeply unsettled. Nadine’s icy demeanor made him uncomfortable, as if she were drifting further and further away from him.
When he entered the room, Nadine was peeling an apple by Adam’s bed. Sean was chatting with Adam on
the other side.
Upon hearing footsteps, Nadine turned around. When she saw it was him, she immediately looked away and didn’t spare him another glance.
Her fingers were slender and long. One of her hands held the apple, and the other held the knife. She

Brad even felt that watching Nadine peel an apple was oddly satisfying.
But the woman who once had eyes only for him was gone.
Noticing Sean’s gaze fixed on Nadine, Adam felt a pang of frustration.
If he had a knife right now, he’d slice off Brad’s ear to stop him from hearing Jean’s nonsense.
Seeing Brad’s admiring gaze toward Nadine only fueled his anger.
In the end, he ignored Brad and spoke to Sean. “Your birthday is coming up, right? Do you have any wishes?”
Sean immediately broke into a smile and said to Adam in a serious tone, “I hope Daddy can celebrate my birthday with me. We can cut the cake and set off fireworks together.”
