Chapter 168
Seeing how agitated Nadine was, Brad glowered at her. With his gaze fixated on her, his eyes grew cold, and he felt nothing but anger. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
“Nadine, you’ve run away from home for five days. Haven’t you had enough? I’m so done with you pulling the same tricks over and over again!”
Ever since she proposed a divorce, her instances of running away from home had become more frequent. Even the slightest provocation would trigger her to leave.
What the heck was wrong with her? Brad thought she was just spoiled.
Appalled, Nadine met his gaze. “What are you on about? Me, pulling tricks? Brad, are you nuts? I’m not pulling tricks–I meant it when I said I want a divorce!
“I hate this kind of life, and I don’t want to live like this anymore. I want to end this so we can both be free. Can’t I do that?”
Brad’s absence from her life during those few days brought her immense bliss. Her emotions no longer wavered because of him. She felt stable and empowered.
With Sean around, she didn’t even see the need to have Brad around. He’d only drive her mad.
The mention of divorce triggered Brad again. His expression suddenly darkened. He stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, pinning her against a tree.
“Look, Nadine. Stop testing my patience! I’ve told you countless times about the divorce–I don’t want to hear you bring that up again!”
In fact, Brad felt extremely disappointed when she didn’t show up after he waited for her for two hours.
If he didn’t expect anything from her, he wouldn’t be disappointed at all. But he looked forward to seeing her for the first time in five days. He’d been anticipating her visit.
And what did she do instead? She didn’t even show up and he couldn’t even reach her phone. How could Brad, who was usually so proud, accept this?
He was used to people waiting for him, but not the other way round. Yet, Nadine didn’t just make him wait for two hours, she also tricked him.
This sole reason could get her in deep trouble.
Nonetheless, Brad’s rage didn’t deter Nadine. She straightened herself and yelled, “If you don’t want me to bring it up again, get on with the divorce then!
“I swear I won’t bother you once you complete the divorce proceedings. I will disappear from your life completely. I won’t even breathe near you.
This will all come to an end as long as you give me the divorce certificate and Sean’s custody. To be honest, it’s all your fault! What does that have to do with me?”
avoided him, yet he still came to the hospital to pester her.
He really was an asshole!
Brad was stunned by the spit on his face. He’d never experienced something like this, and he certainly didn’t expect her to be so bold. He was momentarily dazed.
He quickly took out his handkerchief to wipe the spit from his face. Staring at her with an amused expression, he quipped, “Well, how should I punish you?”
