Chapter 152
Nadine spoke while tugging at Brad’s arm. She tried to distance him from Tyler so that he wouldn’t confront Tyler directly.
While she was at it, she looked at Tyler with a pleading expression. “Tyler, please don’t add fuel to the fire, okay? Please just leave.”
She never anticipated Brad’s sudden interference, let alone for the situation to escalate like this. Her face flushed with anxiety.
Noticing Nadine’s distress, Tyler sighed heavily. “Fine. I’ll go. But let me just say this one thing: Happy birthday, Nad. You deserve better than this two–timing scumbag. A man who cheats on you won’t treat
you right.”
As Tyler kept talking, Nadine realized she couldn’t hold Brad back any longer. She had to plead with Tyler
once again. “Tyler, please stop. I’m begging you.”
What else could Tyler say when she was already pleading with him so desperately?
He shook his head and turned away. “Nad, I’ll wait for the day you divorce him.”
With that, he got on the elevator and disappeared from Nadine’s sight.
It was only then that she breathed a sigh of relief and released her grip on Brad’s arm. Feeling exhausted,
she stood there and tried to calm her breathing.
Meanwhile, when Brad saw Nadine’s relieved expression, he felt his anger rise. He couldn’t believe she
was defending Tyler. “Are you so protective of him because he’s your ex? I haven’t even done anything.
If Nadine hadn’t stopped him, he would have beaten Tyler to a pulp.
At that moment, he even felt grateful for making this trip. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have known that Nadine
had cuckolded him.
Since Sean was present, Nadine didn’t want these matters to taint his innocent mind. She ignored Brad’s sarcasm and instead squatted down to tidy up Sean’s clothes, pinching his tender cheeks affectionately
“Were you cold, baby? What do you want to eat? I’ll treat you.”
Thinking about how Sean hadn’t eaten dinner yet, Nadine felt guilty as his mother.
If she had known things would turn out like this, she wouldn’t have agreed to the department’s dinner
gathering.
She had thought that the dinner would be the end of it, but little did she know they planned a birthday
celebration for her.
Sean looked into Nadine’s eyes and shook his head. “Madam Zoey made onion rings and chicken nuggets for me at home, so I’m not hungry. But if you really want to treat me to dinner, I can eat a little more.”
As he said that, he patted his belly. “It’s still not completely full.”
Nadine chuckled at Sean’s adorable action. Completely ignoring the man behind her, Nadine scooped up Sean and headed toward the entrance. “Alright, I guess I’ll have to treat you to another meal then. How about that?”
Sean clapped his hands happily. “Yay! You’re the best, Mommy! But it’s your birthday today. We shouldn’t eat other food. Let’s eat cake and pizza. Pepperoni pizza! Mommy, I wish you a happy birthday and many more to come!”
As Sean spoke, he made a gesture. “No, not just many more but endless birthdays!”
Nadine couldn’t stop smiling at Sean’s heartwarming words. She completely pushed aside the unpleasant encounter with Brad along with the man himself. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
She held Sean in her arms and walked closer to the road to hail a cab. Just as she stood firm, a silver Aston Martin pulled up.
