Chapter 609

The car's interior was engulfed in a suffocating silence, so heavy it felt as if it weighed down on one's heart, making it hard to breathe.

After Nadine said those words, she sealed her lips shut, knowing she had said all that needed to be said.

As for how Brad would respond, she neither wanted to ask nor cared to know. In her mind, the worst-case scenario was a three-year separation, after which she could file for divorce in court.

As long as she could prove their marriage was irreparably broken with sufficient evidence, the court would still grant the divorce even if Brad refused to sign the papers.

If it came to that, Nadine only had to endure another two years and eight months of this wretched standoff.

And that was time she could afford to spend.

If Brad had any thoughts of marrying Jean, he would do his best to end the marriage with Nadine whom he hated so much.

Her life was already a mess. She didn't want to exhaust herself anymore with this matter.

Compared to Nadine's calm yet cold exterior, Brad showed a much more pained expression.

His face twisted in pain as if he was struggling to suppress the ache swelling in his chest.

In the past, he had always believed Nadine to be a scheming woman, willing to bribe both his father and grandfather just to marry him. How despicable of her, he used to think.

But now, after hearing her words, he finally realized the truth. The one who had truly suffered in this marriage was Nadine. Along the way, he had turned into nothing more than a man who received and never gave back.
