Chapter 873

From the moment Brad learned of Jack's existence, an inexplicable panic settled

in his chest-a fear that seemed to rise from the depths of his soul. He had heard

Nadine calling out Jack's name in her sleep on several occasions, trapped in the

grip of nightmares.

In other words, during the six years they had been together, Nadine had never

truly forgotten Jack. Every time she woke up in the middle of the night, it wasn't

him that occupied her dreams, but Jack.

"Am I destined to be Jack's substitute just because I look so much like him?

You're so freaking cruel, Nadine Scott!" he thought broodingly.

Ever since he learned about Jack's existence, Brad had Cameron investigate

everything about him, especially his relationship with Nadine. Cameron had

brought him a lot of photos, all of which showed Nadine and Jack holding each

other. In those pictures, she was radiant, her eyes brimming with joy.

The two of them were young and full of life, riding bikes together, flying kites,

catching fish by the stream, traveling, and attending joyous parties.

Each photo he looked at deepened the bitterness in his heart. If she loved Jack so

much, why did she say she loved him? How could Nadine Scott love two different

people at the same time?
