Even though Nadine had always been a sucker for Brad's looks, often finding herself mesmerized by his beauty, she managed to keep her wits about her this time.
Brad deliberately got close to her, whispering sweet nothings, but she had no idea what kind of scheme this treacherous man was cooking up this time. A calculating man like him would never spend time with Adam without an ulterior motive.
Hence, when he wrapped his arm around her waist earlier, alarm bells rang in her mind, snapping her back to reality in an instant. Nadine hated how close he was to her, and she despised that indifferent look on his face even more.
In the past, when she needed his company, he would always say that he had just taken over the company and was too busy to take care of anything else. So, she would try her best to take care of their home and child, making sure he had nothing to worry about.
But the more considerate and gentle she was, the more he took it for granted. He never asked about her needs, nor did he spend time with her or Sean.
Nadine found herself struggling with self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy for a very long time. She felt she had given her all to their family, taking care of all the household chores so that Brad wouldn't have to worry.
However, she also felt that she shouldn't be content with this arrangement. Rather than being a stay-at-home wife, she felt she should have her own career.
Once Sean started kindergarten, she started looking for a job. However, without a college degree, she knew her chances of securing one were slim.
