Chapter 15

Nadine’s eyes widened when she heard Brad’s conditions, which she thought came close to crumbling her belief system.

She gaped at the competent–looking man before her, unable to believe what she just heard. Ten million dollars in compensation for his loss of youth, he’d said.

Had she simply misheard him, or was his brain fried?

Nadine had never heard of any woman having to compensate a man for his loss of youth, especially when the man in question was filthy rich.

Where did he get the gall to demand such an astronomical sum from her?

Nadine was so shocked that words escaped her.

Brad smirked as he surveyed the astonishment on her face. He loosened his tie and gazed down at her imperiously.

Nadine hadn’t worked since marrying into the Hamilton family. She didn’t have money, let alone ten million dollars..

The huge sum should have ended any talk of the divorce. Brad would never let Nadine have the final say about their marriage.

It took a while for Nadine to come to her senses after Brad’s alarming conditions made her freeze.

She stared at him disappointedly and said, “I’ll find a way to come up with the money, but I must have full custody of Sean.”

She knew what Brad was trying to do. He knew very well that she had no money. That was why he could so brazenly look down his nose at her and demand that she pay him ten million dollars.

Nadine took in his flawless profile. Every inch of him seemed to exude compétence and elegance.

He was the portrait of a refined gentleman with his handsome features and attractive physique.

If he ever made his debut in the entertainment industry, he would have quickly become an A–list celebrity and beaten out all the other pretty boys in the circle.

Not even the dim lighting in the corridor could mar his perfect looks and regality.

Brad thought there was no way Nadine could cough up ten million dollars. He had expected her to say no to that one absurd condition.

But she surprised him by agreeing to it.
