Nadine quickly turned around and hurried into the kitchen. It took her about five minutes to gradually
regain her senses.

Why did Brad smile at her
now? Recalling his drunken confession last night, she decided to wait until
Sean was asleep and then have a serious talk with Brad,
After all, he was a wealthy and powerful man, and she was no match for him. She still wanted to stay in Janctera City after the divorce, so it wouldn’t be beneficial to offend Brad.
Sitting on the foam cushion, Brad frowned at the sight of Nadine hurriedly entering the kitchen. She hasn’t even said a word to him since returning. What did she take him for?
Brad was determined to teach her a lesson later. Sean, who was trapped in his arms, protested.
“Daddy, what are you looking at? Your eyes are about to pop out.”
It was only then that Brad snapped out of his thoughts. He put on a serious face and said to Sean in his arms, “I have a task for you. If you do it well, I’ll take you to my office tomorrow.
Sean’s eyes instantly lit up. “Sure! Tell me the task. I promise I’ll complete it.” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Brad leaned close to Sean’s ear and whispered for a while. After that, Sean patted his chest and promised, “Don’t worry. I’ll do the task well.”
It was 9:30 pm. Since Sean had school tomorrow, Nadine had bathed him early and put him to bed. She was preoccupied with thoughts of negotiating with Brad later, so she was somewhat absent–minded. Sean realized that Nadine was distracted when she told him bedtime stories. He tugged on her pajama sleeve disdainfully and said, “Mommy, you’re not telling the story well today, I don’t want to listen anymore.”
Nadine’s cheeks reddened at Sean’s criticism. She didn’t know why, but whenever something related to Brad came up, she couldn’t control her thoughts, even if it was just a small matter.
She quickly apologized to Sean, “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to.”
Sean waved his hand indifferently. “Mommy, you don’t need to apologize. I don’t blame you. Daddy said you’re tired and need to rest early tonight.
“I shouldn’t have bothered you to tell me stories. I’m going to sleep now. You should go rest, too, Mommy.
Nadine couldn’t believe how considerate Sean was being today. She lovingly held his little face and kissed him on the cheek. “Oh my, my big boy. Why are you being so obedient today?”
Sean turned to the side proudly and grunted softly. “Okay, okay, I’m going to sleep now. Goodnight, Mommy.”
With that, he crawled under the covers, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Nadine didn’t disturb him any further and quietly left his room.
As she pushed open the bedroom door, she saw Brad sitting on the big bed.
He had already showered. His hair was half–dry, and his bathrobe was loosely draped over him, revealing a glimpse of his well–defined abs.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Brad looked up and glanced at Nadine. His eyes were filled with passion.
Nadine knew him too well. The moment she saw the passion in Brad’s eyes, she was startled and instantly understood what he wanted to do.
Without thinking, she quickly reopened the door to leave the room.
But Brad wouldn’t let her have her way. He hurriedly approached her and gently closed the door again. Nadine found herself trapped between the door and his chest.
