Chapter 31
Adam’s expression darkened instantly. He looked at Nadine seriously, “What happened, Nadine? Why didn’t you tell us about such a serious incident?”
He had never known about this before.
Although Sean’s account seemed calm and collected as if nothing had happened, Adam broke out in a cold sweat just listening to it.
Even Brad, who was standing idly by the side, was stunned.
How could someone dare to lay hands on Sean and Nadine on the Hamilton family’s territory?
Brad’s sharp gaze turned to Nadine, hoping she could give him an explanation..
But she just smiled casually, completely unconcerned. “Grandpa, this thing happened a long time ago. Sean and I are fine. Let’s just forget about it.”
Adam slammed the table. “How can you say that? That was clearly aimed at us! They wanted to harm my. precious great–grandson! No, this can’t just be let go. This must be thoroughly investigated!
“We must get to the bottom of this! I want to see who dares to lay hands on my family! Brad, you handle the investigation. If you can’t find out who did it, I’ll disown you as my grandson!”
Upon receiving Adam’s order, Brad pressed his lips into a line. “People would’ve thought Nadine was your biological granddaughter.”
Furious at his words, Adam grabbed an apple from the bedside table and threw it at Brad. “You bastard! Do you want me to die from anger? Investigate this matter thoroughly. If you can’t figure it out, don’t bother coming back home!”
Brad easily dodged the apple attack, letting it fall to the ground. He then said nonchalantly, “Isn’t she fine?”
Though he said that, he was thinking about something else.
One night, after returning home from a social event, he found Nadine lying alone in bed with a hollow
gaze.
When he approached her, she looked at him with a strange look, as if she were seeing another person. through him.
According to Sean’s timeline, it should have been that night.

Adam coughed heavily from being angered repeatedly. Even his face turned red. Nadine hurriedly went to him and massaged him to calm him down.
After s
some time, Adam finally stopped coughing.
“Nadine, you should have told us about such a big incident. You always keep silent like this. They might think we Hamiltons are easy to bully.”

Nadine lowered her head and didn’t show any concern about the matter. “Grandpa, you just need to take care of yourself. That incident happened a long time ago. I’ve already forgotten about it. Let’s not bring it up again.
“I talked to the doctor, and he said it’s crucial for you to stay calm and rest because of your condition. You can’t get angry anymore.”
Sean quickly agreed with Nadine’s words. “Mommy’s right. You can’t get angry, Grandpa Adam. You need to take care of your body.”
Adam was amused by the sensible mother and son. A glimmer of light appeared in his cloudy eyes. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Since Adam ordered Brad to investigate the matter, the latter naturally needed to talk to Nadine to understand the situation.
Leaving Sean in the ward, he signaled for Nadine to follow him out.
After giving Sean a few instructions, Nadine left the ward.
As she stepped out, she saw Brad standing by the window in the corridor, smoking with his back to her. Upon hearing footsteps, he turned around to look at her.
