NovelEnglishChapter 657 Brad used to despise Nadine and didn't care about her at all. No matter how much Evelyn humiliated her, he would turn a blind eye and ignore it, pretending like he didn't see anything.
Now that he was no longer blinded by his love for Jean, he could see her true colors. Not only did he like Jean less, but he also somehow cto hate her.
That day, even though he was in so much pain that his body was trembling and he could barely focus, he overheard what Evelyn said to Nadine.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt that moment, he entertained the thought that he wasn't Evelyn's biological son. Otherwise, Evelyn would have cared for him instead of making things difficult for Nadine.
Perhaps Nadine didn't mean anything by the conjecture she made, but it was different for Brad.
Before Evelyn and Jean entered the ward, Brad wanted to ask Daniel something. However, due to the two women's arrival, Brad had no choice but to keep the question that was at the tip of his tongue to himself. Up to this point, Evelyn still slandered Nadine. Brad couldn't take it anymore, and he felt his anger rising. When Evelyn realized Brad had fixed his gaze on her, she began to panic. She even wondered if Brad had discovered something. That said, she couldn't say anything to refute him, lest he truly did learn the truth. All she could do was keep up the act of a good mother.
"Brad, you're overthinking this. After you fainted that day, Nadine walked away on her own two feet. It had nothing to do with Jeanie and me, so don't accuse us. And although the photo Jeanie took doesn't prove much, it's still true that a man hugged Nadine.
"Nadine has been going on about the divorce for half a year now. Maybe she already has her eyes on that pretty boy. Don't be befuddled and accuse us for no good reason." Evelyn could tell that Brad didn't want to divorce Nadine, but the latter was determined to get it done. If Evelyn didn't intervene and fulfill Nadine's wish, her plans would most certainly fall through.
The three people held Brad down on the hospital bed. In his weakened state, he was no match for them. During the struggle, the wound. his right arm opened up. The blood that stained the bandage was a ghastly sight.
Daniel remained calm. He immediately called for the doctor. Looking displeased, he turned to face Evelyn and said, "Brad is in such a state so why do you still provoke him? As a mother, can't you care a little more for him?" As a father, Daniel didn't keep a tight leash on Brad's activities. He just let him grow without much guidance. Still, he knew very well what Brad was like.
He admitted that Brad was aloof, cocky, cold, stubborn, and sometimes clueless-but these weren't serious shortcomings ocharacter flaws. Most of the time, Daniet didn't mind and would simply let him be.

Evelyn wanted to say something, but when she saw Daniel's darkened m expression, she pressed her lips together and chose to remain silent. If she kept talking, she would certainly make more mistakes.
Noticing she had stopped talking, Daniel tugged on Evelyn's sleeven "Follow me! I you. me! have something to say to you. Have the caretaker look after him for the next few days. None of you are allowed inside!" Evelyn immediately becwary when she saw the angry Daniel. She signaled to Jean before following Daniel out of the ward.
Jean believed that this was the moment for her to shine. Now that doing Brad was sick, she could take good care of him and comfort him. Then, he would return to her side again.
