As Nadine remained silent, Brad lifted his bandaged hands and said, "These injuries were incurred while saving you and Sean. You, of all people, should know that wounds shouldn't get wet. Don't tellyou don't understand something this basic!" He added, "You said yourself that Sean isn't my biological child, so I wasn't obliged to save him." Brad noticed Nadine's fury and was actually enjoying it. After all the times she had made him angry, it was finally her turn to feel the heat.
Nadine bit her lip hard and looked at Brad in disbelief. She couldn't believe how shameless he had become. In her mind, she cursed him and wondered how the Hamilton family could have produced such a person.
Brad didn't respond to Nadine's outrage. Instead, he tilted his head and said, "Don't forget, you promised to givea million dollars in compensation for my lost youth. Are you trying to back out now?" He gestured toward the cameras in the house. "Do you want to hear the recording of your promise?" Although he wasn't sure if the cameras had captured the conversation, he used it as leverage to force Nadine's compliance.
Seeing Nadine's silence and furious expression, he continued, "The injuries on my hand were caused by you. could have your DNA tested at I the police station and press charges for intentional harm." He added, "If I file a lawsuit, you'll be called in for questioning and might even be detained. What will happen to Sean then? Have you thought about that?" Nadine's mind was racing with frustration, and words couldn't express her anger. But she had to face reality. If Brad pursued legal action, the bite marks on his hand could indeed lead to a charge of intentional harm.

Brad was right about that. With all the elite lawyers at Hamilton Group, she might not stand a change. She could evem be detained. The thought of not being able to see her son, and the fear it might cause him, made her relent. She forced a cheerful expression and said to the towering Brad, "Alright then. If you need a back rub, let's go. I'll do it now." In her mind, she was already planning how to make sure he didn't enjoy it.
Satisfied with his victory, Brad allowed a smug smile to appear on his face. He left Sean's room and headed toward their bedroom.
The winter rain outside was harsh and cold, but inside, the house was warm and inviting. Even in her thin nightgown, Nadine felt cozy and comfortable.
