As soon as he noticed her, Brad's eyes lit up, and he greeted her warmly, "Nad, you're here!" It was obvious from the look on his face just how happy he was. If he wasn't injured, he'd probably jump out of bed and spin her around in his arms.
Nadine lifted her gaze to him and walked over to check his wound. "Make sure to keep your wound dry, avoid spicy foods, and take good care of yourself. You should be able to go hin a few days." Brad was young, and his body's metabolism worked quickly. So, the drug was almost completely gone from his system.
He just needed to be monitored for another two days before he could be discharged. The injury on his right arm was more severe-it would take at least a month before the cast could coff.
Looking at his injured arm, she couldn't pretend she felt nothing. Brad had gotten hurt while saving her. His nerve had been damaged, and no one could say for sure how well he would recover. There was even a chance he might never be able to hold a pen properly again.
Of course, she cared. After all, they had been married for six years, and she had loved him deeply during that time. Nadine would be lying to herself if she said her heart didn't ache for him. However, they were in the middle of a divorce. She couldn't bring herself to show him how much she cared.

Don't raise your voice at them and always speak gentlyel. ned the right moment, ask for a kiss or a hug. Trust me, she won't refuse." Cameron, who was standing beside them, was astonished to see his usually arrogant boss acting so endearing and adorable. He was at a loss for words.
He thought to himself, "Could you please wipe that drool off your chin, Brad? What happened to your dignity?"
Nadine thought that wasn't too much to ask for since they were getting a divorce soon. So she gave him a quick hug. However, she had her own motives for the embrace.
While Brad was distracted, she discreetly collected a few strands of his hair from his pillow and slipped in from hisp them into her pocket. With one goal in mind, she gave him a brief hug before leaving the ward.
At that moment, a wild and absurd idea took root in her mind. It felt like a ticking tbomb that could explode at any moment, threatening to disrupt her peaceful life.
