As soon as her words fell, Evelyn's expression changed tically. Her face flushed with anger in an instant. "Watch what you're saying, Nadine Scott! Stop spewing such ridiculous nonsense!" Her reaction only confirmed Nadine's suspicions. A sly smile played on Nadine's lips as she said, "If that's the case, then they absolutely can't get married. Children born of the smother are siblings, you know?" Ever since Nadine met Evelyn, the latter had always gone out of her way to defend Jean. Sometimes, when Gigi and Jean had disagreements, Evelyn would side with Jean over her own daughter, Gigi. Evelyn often treated Jean with more affection than she did her own daughter.
It spoke volumes about Evelyn and Jean's unusual relationship. Aside from being mother and daughter, Nadine couldn't think of any other explanation. After all, who would be this good to someone with no blood relation? Considering Evelyn's earlier reaction, it was hard not to think they were mother and daughter. Besides, when she looked at them, the resemblance was striking.
Evelyn stood frozen in place, her eyes drilling into Nadine's face. But it didn't take long for her to snap out of it and yell, "Stop trying to sow discord, you little bitch! Jeanie and Brad aren't related at all! Say one more word, and I'll tear your mouth apart! "Don't think that just because Brad's here that you have someone to back you up. I'm his mother, and in this household, I call the shots! Bodyguards, get in here!" At her command, the Hamilton family's bodyguards filed in and lined up in front of Evelyn. "What can we do for you, Madam Evelyn?" Evelyn pointed at Nadine. "Throw this wretched woman out! Don't let her set foot in this room again!" Now that Daniel and Adam weren't here, Nadine had no one to rely on. Evelyn was sure she could get rid of Nadine this time.
The bodyguards exchanged hesitant glances. No one dared to make a move. Both women were part of the Hamilton family-one was Daniel's woman, the other was Brad's. They couldn't afford to offend either, so no one dared to act.

Noticing that the bodyguards were hesitating, Evelyn fumed. "Why aren't any of you listening to me? If you don't follow my orders, I'll dock your pay and fire you all!"
Nadine didn't want to make things difficult for the bodyguards. She had already stayed long enough. If she stayed any longer, she'd only embarrass herself.
Nadine shook off Jean's hand and they' smiled sardonically at Evelyn. "There's no ne need to get them involved. I can walk out on my own. But there's something I find strange, Evelyn. Your son is in so much pain, yet all you care about is arguing with me? Is this what a mother should do?"
Evelyn's face drained of color as she froze in place, staring daggers at Nadine without saying a word. Before stre gould respond, Nadine walked past her with her head held high, deliberately jostling hero shoulder against Evelyn's. After bumping into Evelyn, Nadine turned around and flashed a smile. "Oops! I had no idea you enjoyed standing in the way."
