Nadine only wanted to take Sean with her. She had no interest in dealing with Brad.
Avery sent Nadine a message at this moment. "Babe, have you ever thought about finding Sean's biological father? No matter what, he should take sresponsibility as a father, right?" After reading the message, Nadine hesitated for a moment before replying. "Hey, I already told you before that having Sean was my decision alone. It has nothing to do with that man.
"Even if he comes to findand Sean, I'd still say the sthing. I chose to have this child, and it's my responsibility alone. Marriage, funerals, or anything else have nothing to do with him."

What if he turned out to be an alcoholic or an abusive scumbag? Nadine and Sean were living well, so she didn't need to create unnecessary trouble for herself.

From what I see, he seems to care about you." Avery hadn't seen it firsthand, but the fact that Brad was stalling the divorce and silencing the media that slandered Nadine showed he cared for her.
Nadine smiled at Avery's words. "Silly girl. As a relationship guru, shouldn't you see this more clearly than I do? If Brad really cared about me, wouldn't I be able to feel it? It's like sitting by a fire-you can't help but feel the heat, right?" For six years, Nadine had tried her best to be a good wife and love Brad. If he had cared for her even a little during their years together, would she have had to try so hard? All of it required great effort from her end, and it had truly been exhausting for Nadine to keep it up.

I'll have the maids bring you something else. How about honey lemon tea?" In the business world, Brad paid close attention to such details when talking to clients.

Nadine clearly didn't like coffee, but she said nothing when it was as served to her. She truly treated herself like a guest in what was supposed to be her own home.
Brad raised his voice and instructed the maid, "Remove the coffee and bring shoney lemon tea.
|| Without giving Nadine a chance to refuse, he made the decision for her. The maid quickly took away Nadine's cup and replaced it with one containing honey lemon tea.

Still, she didn't ask anything, simply picking up the glass cup and taking a small sip. The sweet flavor immediately filled her mouth, and her mood improved significantly. "Thank you, Mr. Hamilton," Nadine said.
The moment Brad heard that form of address, his face darkened instantly.
