NovelEnglishChapter 153
The car sped towards her, screeching to a halt right next to her. Nadine instinctively stepped back when
she saw it barreling down the street.
Just as she was about to yell, the window rolled down, revealing Brad's strikingly handsface. The dim
streetlight made it hard to see his expression clearly, but she could tell from the reflected light that his eyes
were filled with darkness.
Brad's lips were pressed into a thin line, and he regarded Nadine with a scrutinizing gaze that reminded her of
the night they first met nearly six years ago
That winter night, when Nadine was still a medical student, she discovered she was pregnant.

She thought that if she could just forget about that night and move on, the nightmare would fade away. But she
realized that sthings are impossible to escape.
She had never told anyone about it. However, she had secretly asked her mother, “Mom, what would happen if a
girl got pregnant out of wedlock?”
Her mother had given her flat stomach a meaningful look and said, “That girl better not be you, Nadine. Our
family can’t bear that shame. If you ever did such a thing. I'd drown you myself.”
Her mother’s words filled her with fear and pain. She didn’t dare go to the hospital for an abortion, nor did she
tell anyone about it, so she went to the beach to clear her mind.
Staring at the turbulent sea, she suddenly felt a desire to end it all there, thinking the vast ocean could surely
accommodate her and her child.
Just as she jumped, a dark figure followed her into the water.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Brad's impassive face and his clear, cool eyes.
Back then, she had only remembered his calm demeanor, which was like the moon high in the sky- beautiful yet
unreachable.
The memory from six years ago overlapped with the present as Brad’s eyes brought Nadine back to reality. She
stood next to the city’s most distinctive can holding Sean. “What do you want?” she coldly asked.
Brad honked the horn and said, “Get in.
Nadine didn’t move. She politely replied, “No, thank you I'll take a taxi.”
The truth was, she was afraid of being alone with Brad. After all, feelings weren't something she could easily
control.

Every tshe faced Brad, she couldn't help but feel an overwhelming desire to love him, and she would
completely lose control of herself. She knew they were from different worlds and were destined not to be
together, so she made an effort to keep her distance.
Tand space would heal all wounds. Though leaving Brad caused her heartache, tand distance
gradually helped her forget him.
“Nadine, stop being stubborn!” Brad's patience wore thin as he saw her reluctance to get in the car, and he
shouted at her.
Nadine remained unmoved. She picked Sean up and started walking in the opposite direction.
Brad's face was flushed from anger. He swiftly exited the car, closed the distance between him and Nadine in
just a few strides, and forcefully pulled her back.
Then, he pushed her into the car and secured her seatbelt.
“Nadine, if you keep this up, don’t blme for being rude! What would Grandpa think if he saw this?”
