Chapter 42
Usually, Brad was very indifferent toward Sean, which caused Sean to develop affection for him.
Now, Brad was holding Sean and taking him out to eat, which intensified Sean’s longing for paternal love
even more.
At this moment, not only did Nadine not allow him to get close to Brad, but she also said he didn’t have a father. How could he not be upset with Nadine?
Sean cried loudly, struggling relentlessly in Nadine’s arms.
She didn’t have the strength to restrain Sean. In no time, Sean broke free from Nadine’s arms and fell to the ground
He immediately started crying loudly..
He pouted and glared at Nadine. “You’re a bad mommy! You don’t want me to be with Daddy. You’re ruining our relationship! I hate you!”
After roaring, he turned and ran away.
He didn’t even look at the traffic lights.
He ran toward the hotel entrance with his eyes closed, completely ignoring the passing vehicles,
Nadine watched as Sean’s small figure ran recklessly across the pedestrian crossing. She felt both anxious and afraid.
She was extremely worried.
She was afraid that the passing vehicles might hit Sean She was so anxious that her face turned pale and her limbs weakened.
She could only stand dumbfounded on the roadside while shouting at Sean, “Sean, don’t run! Be careful of
the cars!”
Brad, who had caught up, saw Sean standing alone in the middle of the road and facing the oncoming. traffic. He immediately rushed over, picked Sean up, and took him to safety.
Soon, he brought Sean to a safe place.
Seeing Sean back in a safe place, Nadine finally relaxed her tensed heart.
But…
Her legs were so weak that she couldn’t even stand steady.
She stood on one side of the road, while Brad held Sean on the other side. The two looked at each other across the flowing traffic.
Nadine was filled with gratitude.
If it weren’t for Brad, she didn’t dare to think about the consequences.
This time, she really had to thank him.
However, Brad frowned at Nadine. His eyes were filled with dissatisfaction and more importantly, they
were accusatory
What was she running around for?
She even allowed Sean to cross the road alone. Was this something a biological mother would do?
He had only answered a phone call, and she caused such a scene. She didn’t care about Sean’s life at all.
It seemed that he couldn’t let her raise Sean anymore.
Brad cast a dark glance at Nadine across the bustling traffic, and his eyes were filled with gloom.
When the pedestrian light turned green, he picked Sean up and walked away without even sparing her
another glance.
Sean also realized he was scared. He held onto Brad’s neck tightly probably because he was frightened.” Daddy, I’m scared.”
Brad patted Sean’s back gently and reassured him in a low voice. “Don’t be afraid.”
Although it was only a few simple words, it inexplicably comforted him.
Under Brad’s soothing words, Sean calmed down and realized his mistake. “Daddy, I know I was wrong won’t run recklessly on the road anymore.”
The usually indifferent Brad smiled, pinched Sean’s cheek, and said, “Okay.”

Nadine stood on the pedestrian crossing as she watched Brad take Sean away. She felt remorseful and
ashamed.
Sean was still young. Why couldn’t she explain to him patiently?
How could she say such things?
She could vent her anger at Brad if she was angry with him, but how could she drag Sean into it?
Sean v
was so innocent!
That scene just now was thrilling. She didn’t even know what Sean would have faced if it weren’t for Brad’s quick reflexes.
