Perhaps it was because she had seen someone from her past, or perhaps it was due to her heartache for Sophie, but in either case, Nadine was in a very bad

mood today.

What happened six years ago resurfaced in her mind, constantly stirring up her already uneasy emotions.

She didn't want to argue with Brad now. All she wanted was to hide in a corner and tend to her traumas herself. Never mind being considerate, but his audacity to pick a fight with her now truly upset her.

Nadine wasn't planning to be nice to him. Not only did she yell at him, but the disgust in her eyes was also palpable. She just wanted to have some personal space and stay in for a while.
