Chapter 27
Nadine wondered if Brad was calling about the divorce certificate.
The thought sparked a bit of hope, so she answered, “Hello?”
Brad’s deep, cool voice came through the line. “Where are you?”
The quiet background, punctuated only by the faint scratch of a pen on paper, suggested he was at his
office.
He didn’t mention the divorce certificate, which annoyed Nadine, Her tone turned sharp. “You don’t need to know that. Just tell me when you’ll give me the divorce certificate. Brad, stop dragging this out. You’re just wasting Jean’s time. She might think you’ve fallen for me.”
All she wanted was the divorce certificate, so she didn’t care if her words angered Brad.
“Nadine!” His warning tone was chilling, “Grandpa is sick. He wants to see Sean.”
The news of Adam’s illness made Nadine forget their argument. She quickly asked, “Which hospital is he
in? How is he? Is it serious?”
Among the Hamiltons, Adam had always been the kindest to her. She just wanted him to be okay.
Brad’s tone finally
softened. “He’s at Harborview Hospital. Bring Sean over this afternoon.”
Nadine readily agreed.
After hanging up, she went to find Tyler. “Tyler, Mr. Hamilton Senior is hospitalized here at Harborview. Do
you know which ward he’s in?”
As the chief doctor at Harborview, Tyler had more access than she did as his assistant.
