Strangely enough, ever since their divorce, Nadine's feelings for Brad had faded

more and more. Looking back at her past self, she realized just how foolish she

had been.

Love was just a small part of life, yet she had made it her entire world—revolving

around Brad as if he was the center of her universe. In the end, what had she

gained? Nothing but scars.

Nadine had let go of Brad and stopped chasing after him. Ironically, Brad was the

one who couldn't seem to leave her alone now.

Even though she kept her eyes closed, she wasn't asleep. Her mind was filled

with thoughts of Brad and their past. Comparing her past to her present, she

realized just how much she preferred her current life.

While Brad's constant pursuit annoyed her, her life was fulfilling now. Every day,

she spent her time learning, growing, and surrounding herself with people who

were more accomplished than she was. She learned from them and kept

improving herself. She simply had no time for love anymore.
