Chapter 136
Just as she was worrying over the situation, she spotted Brad quietly appearing before her in his study. She was startled by his appearance and asked, “Why are you back?”
Shouldn’t he be accompanying his precious Jean in the hospital at such a time? It was slightly unbelievable to see him here.
Brad looked at Nadine, who seemed to be looking for something by his table. He raised his eyebrow as his eyes were filled with disdain. “Isn’t this my study? Why can’t I come home?”
Although he didn’t know what Nadine was looking for, his instincts told him that the item she was looking for was very important to her.
“Nadine, who allowed you to enter my study?”
After ensuring that the thief in his study was Nadine, he remembered their agreement and questioned her.
The last time Nadine entered Brad’s study was five years ago.
Back then, she had just married Brad
She made him some desserts and sent them to his study. Brad was on the balcony answering a call and was not sitting by his desk.
Nadine accidentally saw a picture of Brad and Jean in his study and couldn’t help but take another look at it.
Who would have thought that small action would have infuriated Brad? He immediately ordered her to never step into his study again.
Nadine felt a little da
dazed when she heard Brad’s question. She couldn’t help but recall that small unhappy memory.
“I’m just looking for the divorce agreement I left on your table. Could you please sign it and give it back to me?
How much time had passed wouldn’t have mattered in this case as Brad had always been an efficient man. He should have signed his name and gotten the divorce certificate already.
She had decided to sneak into Brad’s study, risking being humiliated by him, because she wanted to find those divorce papers. Other than that, she also wanted to know if Brad had already signed his name.
If he hadn’t, she would need to convince him to sign it.
While it was true that Adam’s sickness meant he could not handle any external stress, her marriage with Brad could no longer continue.
They might as well get a divorce first. Then, she would convince Brad to put on an act to fool Adam and pretend that they hadn’t gotten a divorce
That way, they’d be able to get the best of both worlds.
“With
your efficiency in doing things, you must have already received the divorce certificate, am I right? Can you give me a copy?”
Before Nadine could finish her words, Brad started to walk toward her.
He frowned as he looked at Nadine coldly
The bright light shone directly on Brad’s face, highlighting his tall frame and distinct features. His dark hair, red lips, and bright eyes made him look like a man who had just walked out of a painting.
His tone was filled with mockery as he said, “Since when did you have a say in this household? What right do you have to care about what I do?
Nadine kept claiming that she respected Adam’s wishes. Yet, here she was, adamant about a divorce while Adam was in the hospital. Nadine watched as Brad slowly made his way toward her and took a step back. She raised her head and looked at him stubbornly. “Weren’t you dreaming of having a divorce?
“I’m doing this to fulfill your wishes. Stop mocking me and give me our divorce certificates. We might as well part ways now.”
In her eyes, with Brad’s influence in Janctera City, obtaining a divorce certificate should be easy. He would probably be able to commit a crime and be found not guilty of anything.
So, how could he not be able to obtain a divorce certificate? Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
Nadine stretched her hand out toward him and smiled. “I’d really appreciate it if you would give me the divorce certificate.”
Immediately, Brad reached out to grab her outstretched hand tightly.
