Chapter 3

The wind felt like icy blades that pierced through Nadine’s heart and made it hard to breathe.

After five years, she still couldn’t melt Brad’s heart. But Jean… Jean could effortlessly shatter all his principles.

In the Hamilton family, “Jean Sawyer” was a forbidden word. Even Brad’s parents avoided mentioning her name to prevent conflict.

Once, Nadine came across a photo of Jean while tidying up Brad’s study. Just as she was about to put it back, Brad stormed in and furiously ordered her out. He even banned her from the study altogether.

His love for Jean was undeniable.

Nadine’s heart twisted with pain seeing Sean burning with fever and slipping into unconsciousness. She couldn’t stay still knowing that Jean had intentionally targeted her.

Nadine dashed out of the room, frantically searching every doctor’s office, desperate to save Sean. Sean was her everything, and she would do anything to bring his fever down.

Like a madwoman, Nadine flung open one office door after another, each time leaving more disappointed. She raced through seven floors without finding a single doctor, her hope dwindling with every step.

Sean couldn’t wait. Tears streamed down Nadine’s face as she collided with someone.

Nadine looked up, surprised. Unknowingly, it had started to rain outside, adding to the somber, cold atmosphere.

She quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to.”

“Nadine?!” A familiar, surprised voice brought her back to her senses.

As Nadine gazed at the man standing just a breath away, Nadine felt even more disoriented.
