The smile on Nadine's face was like a jab to Brad's heart. Without a second thought, he rushed into the coffee shop, heading straight for her table.
Sebastian was momentarily taken aback by the man's sudden appearance. However, he hastily regained his composure and began to study the man standing next to Nadine.
Towering at around six foot three, the man was lean. His thick puffer jacket couldn't conceal the taut lines of his physique. His gaze was piercing, darting between Sebastian and Nadine. His brows were knitted, and he looked rather unfriendly.
He hadn't said a single word. All he did was stare at Nadine quietly. Yet, there was something about his gaze that set off alarm bells for Sebastian. It was clear that the relationship between this man and Nadine was far from simple.
Nadine's smile vanished as soon as she saw Brad. Rising from her seat, she told Sebastian, who was sitting across from her, "I'm sorry, Mr. Caldwell, but something urgent has come up. I'm afraid I have to cut this short. Can we reschedule?"
Sebastian gave Brad a meaningful look and smiled. "It's alright. Mr. Hamilton Senior did ask me to show you a good time while you're here. Since I haven't had the pleasure yet, why don't I show you around? Think of me as your free tour guide!"
In truth, Sebastian had heard plenty about Brad from his father. He knew that this man was incredibly intelligent but also had a terrible temper. He was arrogant and looked down on others.
Due to his heart condition, he spent most of his youth at Hamilton Estate and had very little contact with the outside world. But after recovering from his illness, he took over Hamilton Group and quickly turned the business into a force to be reckoned with. Thus, he established himself as a formidable businessman.
Presently, when a strikingly handsome man with an imposing presence appeared beside Nadine with such an obvious possessive gaze, Sebastian instantly recognized him. This had to be the ungrateful grandson Adam had mentioned.
