Chapter 38
Her last sentence completely stripped away Brad’s facade.
She also hit his sore spot.
When Nadine mentioned “Ms. Sawyer,” she bravely met Brad’s eyes and saw the deep disgust in them..
In addition to disgust, there was also intense hostility.
She did it on purpose!
She knew very well that as long as Jean was mentioned, Brad would give up everything to find her.
Instead of letting Sean feel disappointed later, it was better to dash his hopes now.
Humans were greedy.
Once they had something, they would want it again and again.
Sean was so excited and happy to be held by Brad for the first time.
Once he experienced it once, he would want it again and again.
But…
Could Brad let him experience it for a second or third time?
The reason why he held Sean was just a whim.
He wanted to compete with Tyler and also warn her.
This hug had nothing to do with affection. It was just a way to save his reputation.
But Sean was still young and didn’t understand the hidden agendas of adults.

She couldn’t just stand by and watch Sean the trap set up by Brad.
Despite Nadine saying so much, Sean still clung to Brad’s neck. He showed no intention of letting go.
He even leaned his little head against Brad’s, looking very affectionate.
With a puzzled expression, he asked, “Who is Ms. Sawyer? Why does she need Daddy more than me?
“Isn’t she an adult? Aren’t adults supposed to be independent? Why does she need Daddy more?”
Sean was puzzled, so he asked a lot of questions.
He even looked at Brad with eyes full of reluctance.
His expression was pitiful as if he was about to cry in the next second.
Seeing Nadine’s distress, Tyler couldn’t bear to see her in a difficult situation.
He reached out to Sean and tried to lure him with food, “Sean, why don’t you play with me? Let your father
do what he wants to do.
“I will take you to eat whatever you want later.”
Nadine also stepped forward and stopped in front of Brad. She could reach out and hold Sean if she wanted to
Brad observed how Nadine and Tyler complemented each other seamlessly.
A hint of sarcasm flashed across Brad’s sharp face, followed by a frosty gaze directed at Nadine.
“What? Are you more aware of my schedule than I am?
“Do I need your permission to be with someone?”
He lifted Sean and ignored Nadine’s approach. Then, he asked Sean, “What do you want to eat?”
He felt happy to see Nadine unhappy.
She refused to live a good life and insisted on getting a divorce.
Who said she could get whatever she wanted?
Why could Tyler hold Sean, but he couldn’t?
Noticing Nadine’s nervous and anxious expression, he felt delighted secretly.
At that moment, Nadine’s disappointment was even more evident.
She knew that Sean would never refuse Brad.
It was just as she thought. Sean answered, “Okay”
“Daddy, take me to the hotel to eat then. I want to eat delicious fish and smoked spare ribs, and it would
be even better if there’s some cake or ice cream.
