Chapter 553 The moment Brad said those words, Nadine was completely stunned and utterly thrown off.
What the fuck? Did Brad suddenly realize that the two of them were married? Now claiming that they were still married-had he been suffering from amnesia for the last six years? Nadine's initial instinct told her to mock him, but she realized that doing so would make it seem like she still cared about him. Thus, she held back from arguing.
Forcing herself to calm down, Nadine looked at Brad with a mocking gaze. "Mr. Hamilton, if I remember correctly, I already gave you the divorce agreement and publicly announced it. In my eyes, you are already my ex- husband.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Mr. Ex-husband, I invited my friend for a meal. That's my business and has nothing to do with you. So, we should make things clear. How much was the bill for today's meal?" Nadine was the type who never liked owing people anything. She had invited Sebastian for a meal, and it had nothing to do with Brad. There was no need for him to pay.
She wanted to draw a clear line with Brad. She absolutely wouldn't owe him anything, not even the bill for a simple meal.
Brad frowned deeply, his gaze filled with frustration. Sitting in the driver's seat, he coldly stared at the indifferent Nadine standing by the car window. His gaze grew cold.
If Nadine had looked a bit closer, she might've noticed a trace of hope and joy deep within his eyes. What made Brad happy was that Nadine had run over to talk to him. He was hopeful she might smile at him sweetly.
But not only did Nadine not smile at him, her face was full of impatience. There was even a hint of disdain hidden deep in her eyes. She looked exactly like how Brad had always treated her in the past.
During their six-year marriage, Nadine had been like a puppet. She always obeyed Brad, never once saying "no" to him.
Yet, Brad had taken all her love and Nur kindness for granted, never feeling the slightest guilt. He never thought about giving anything back or making Nadine happy. Only at this moment did he finally understand what kind of life Nadine had lived for the past six years.
All of Nadine's hopes had slowly turned into disappointment. Her expectations had transformed into indifference until all her love and passion had completely disappeared.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBrad didn't really understand the pain he was feeling, but just thinking about it felt terrifying to him. It was like a vine wrapping tightly around his heart. It constricted more and more until he found himself unable to breathe.
Facing Nadine's cold gaze, Brad couldn't even open his mouth. He didn't know what to say.
Nadine stood by the car with her arms crossed, looking down at Brad. Noticing the change in his expression, she found it unsettling. What was this scoundrel, Brad, plotting again?
Nadine cautiously took a step back and questioned him, "What waht? only cexactly do you over to ask you how much the meal cost and to pay you back. That's it." Seeing the look in Brad's eyes made her panic a little. This was because Nadine knew that she was no match for Brad in terms of fighting and vern strength. If he decided to get physical, there was no way she could win.
After hearing Nadine's words, Brad ined let out a bitter laugh. "Nadine m you that we're still eady told you tha married. You don't need to be so clear-cut with me."
Brad swallowed the bitterness in his throat. He tried to explain to her that he had no i intentions and just wanted to help by paying the bill. Why was she so impossible to please? He paid for her meal-what was wrong with that? Was it really such a big deal?
