Chapter 572

Brad took a deep breath and suppressed the bitterness in his heart before saying, "Let's not talk about that right now, okay? Earlier, when I picked Sean up, the

teacher mentioned they would be having a family activity this weekend and that all parents are required to attend."

Nadine's interest was instantly piqued. "This weekend? Where will it be held? Do we need to bring anything? How long will it last?"

Her job as a nurse required her to work three shifts. She still wasn't sure about her schedule for the weekend, so if it clashed with the time she had to spend with Sean, she'd have to exchange shifts with her colleague. This had to be done ahead of time.

Brad felt a little hurt as he noticed how animated she became when talking about Sean, while she was so cold toward him. He didn't let it show, though. "It should indeed be happening this weekend. The teacher hasn't specified where exactly; she just said she'd text us tomorrow."

In reality, there was no such event. Brad made it up in a desperate attempt to ease the tension between them. Noticing how serious Nadine was about it, he found himself at a loss for words. He was starting to run out of ways to keep up the lie.

However, her attention wasn't on him. Her eyes were glued to her son, who was playing in the kid's area. She pulled out her phone to check the messages she'd received that day, but she didn't find anything from the teacher regarding a family activity.
