Chapter 129
Brad’s expression darkened even more when he heard Gigi refer to Nadine as a “bitch” once more.
He strode toward the bed and looked down at Gigi, who was sitting on the bed.
With a dark gaze, he looked at Gigi and said, “I’ll repeat myself one more time. Apologize! You can choose not to apologize, too. But if you do, don’t even think about receiving this month’s allowance from me,”
Back then, he only knew Gigi and Nadine never got along. He assumed Gigi just disliked Nadine.
At that time, he believed the less trouble he had, the better. As long as everyone got along well and the family’s peace was not disturbed, then he would not bother to know who was actually in the wrong
But now,
he realized Gig had actually been in the wrong all this time.
If he only used today as an example, Gigi was obviously in the wrong, yet she was still acting so proud and unreasonable.
On the contrary, Nadine remained quiet and did not look the slightest bit angry. It was almost as if she was used to being framed, like everything had become part of a routine for her.
At that moment, he felt something heavy crushing him hard, drowning him in pain. The heavy feeling in his heart flowed from his chest to his limbs
He couldn’t describe what he was feeling. He only felt like Nadine’s life had not been easy throughout the five years they were together.
She was not in the wrong, yet she had to humble herself and take on the blame.
He couldn’t help but sympathize with her.
Gigi saw the firmness in Brad’s eyes and knew she would have to apologize today. However, she wasn’t willing to do so.
She shook Evelyn’s hands and began to cry. “Mom, look at how Brad is treating me! I’m his sister! We have the same blood flowing within our veins, yet he’s here reprimanding me for an outsider!”
Evelyn patted Gigi’s hands and rubbed her back comfortingly.
was on Brad as she said, “Brad, no matter what, Gigi is still your sister.
However, Evelyn’s gaze was on
“Although you two are just step–siblings, you two still have the same family name. We are your real family. Are you really going to hurt your own family for an outsider?”
Brad met her gaze and paused momentarily.
Then, he said, “This has nothing to do with family! It’s clear who is right and who is wrong. Gigi is in the wrong here.
“Since she’s done something wrong, she needs to apologize. People learn this in elementary school. What’s wrong? Don’t tell me Gigi is mor Immature than a child in elementary school?”
Evelyn’s expression darkened as her voice sharpened. “Is an apology necessary?”
Brad remained firm. “She should apologize since she’s in the wrong!”
Evelyn noticed he wasn’t willing to relent, so she turned to Nadine
“Nadine, you’ve been in the Hamilton family for almost six years now, right? The Hamilton family has never treated you badly throughout these six years.
“Must you force Gigi to apologize over such a small situation? As her sister–in–law, can’t you just be lenient and not hold this against her? Where is your usual gentle demeanor?
Nadine never expected to be pulled into the crossfire as she watched the drama unfold.
Nadine chuckled and said, “Mrs. Hamilton, are you trying to use my morals against me? I’m sorry, but that trick won’t work. You morals against me because I don’t have morals!

Evelyn did not expect Nadine to disregard her words, and her expression darkened. She was about to say something else when she felt Brad’s cold gaze on her.
