Chapter 2

Noticing Nadine’s presence, Jean deliberately nestled closer to Brad’s arm, her complexion paling even further.

Jean clutched onto Brad’s arms and said, “Brad, I’m feeling a bit unwell. Could you slow down a bit?”

Her voice was clear enough for everyone present to hear.

As the striking couple approached her, Nadine would have recognized them anywhere, even if they had turned to ash.

The strikingly handsome man walking beside Jean was none other than her husband of five years.

And the delicate beauty clinging to his arm was none other than his first love—Jean!

Witnessing their intimate closeness, Nadine felt an ache deep in her heart. She bit her lip until the metallic taste of blood flooded her mouth, a mere echo of the pain within.

Upon hearing Jean’s discomfort, Brad immediately slowed his pace and effortlessly lifted her into his arms.

“What’s the point of pushing yourself when you’re unwell?” His words sounded cold, yet they carried a hint of gentleness and concern.

It was something Nadine had never experienced. She stood there dumbfounded as she watched the scene in silence, feeling a chill creeping over her.

As Jean passed by Nadine, she turned slightly from Brad’s shoulder and offered Nadine a bright smile.

“Brad, isn’t that Mrs. Hamilton over there?” Jean’s voice dripped with faux innocence as she spoke to him. “I’d like to greet her.”

Brad stopped in his tracks. His exquisitely handsome features were now full of disdain, his gaze dark and unreadable as he looked at Nadine standing by the information terminal.
