Chapter 6

In the dimly lit safety passage, Nadine and Brad stood alone, their heavy breathing being the only sound breaking the oppressive silence.

The darkness shrouded Brad’s expression, but Nadine could feel his presence–a palpable tension that made her heart race.

Hugging herself tightly, Nadine finally voiced the words that had weighed on her heart for so long. “Brad, let’s get a divorce.”

She was drained, unable to move any further. Brad’s disdain for their marriage, for her, and even for their child, Sean, was undeniable.

Nadine didn’t understand his amusement. She gritted her teeth and pressed on. “Brad, I know these five years have been painful for you to be with someone you don’t love.

“I’m setting you free now. And don’t worry, I only want Sean. I don’t need anything else.”

Sean was her everything. Nadine didn’t want anything from the Hamilton ‘family except Sean’s custody. Given the Hamiltons‘ power and influence, she had no chance if they refused.

Brad’s laughter grew louder, more frigid, and Nadine’s Heart sank.
