Chapter 838
After handing the vendor the 100-dollar bill, Sebastian bought a few more cotton candies for Nadine, Sean, the driver, and himself.
The vendor, seeing how generous and well-dressed Sebastian was, immediately complimented Nadine. "Your boyfriend's a real catch! He's handsome, charismatic, and generous-you're one lucky lady!
"Oh, hang on. He's your husband! I forgot you already have a son! Your little one is good-looking too. He looks just like a doll."noveldrama
After hearing the vendor's compliments, Sebastian swiftly handed him another 100-dollar bill. "Wrap up a few more for me to go. You, sir, have a discerning eye. My wife is indeed stunning, capable, and incredibly virtuous."
Nadine's ears turned a bright shade of red. She looked utterly flustered as he continued to heap praise on her and made her feel like the most special person on earth. Her face flushed crimson, and she felt incredibly embarrassed.
Nadine was about to clarify her relationship with Sebastian to the vendor when a sleek black Mercedes sped toward them. The car made a sharp drift before coming to a stop right in front of Nadine.
Before the car even came to a stop, Brad jumped out. He'd been watching the scene unfold from a distance and had heard every word the vendor had said.
When the vendor mistook Nadine and Sebastian for a couple, Brad's jealousy hit him like a tidal wave. It was the kind of jealousy that burned from his throat to his stomach, leaving his chest tight and his vision blurry.
After leaping out of the car, Brad rushed to Nadine's side and wrapped his arm around her waist, facing the vendor head-on. "Excuse me, but this is my wife! Are you blind? We're the ones together, and that kid is my son!"
With a possessive hold on Nadine's waist, he stood firm in front of the vendor, determined to have their relationship acknowledged.
The vendor glanced at him, then at Sebastian, perplexed. "Wait a minute-if you're her husband, why didn't she call you for help? Why did she call this gentleman instead?"
He'd seen the whole situation
thew
unfold. The first man had arrived in record time; looking genuinely concerned-there was no way he wasn'ther husband. As for this guy, besides being good-looking, be seemed to have nothing going for him. '
"If she's really your wife, why is she trying to push you away? Why won't she let you hold her?"
Brad was stumped. He was rooted to the spot, watching as Nadine broke free from his hold. A whirlwind of emotions churned in his chest-hurt, confusion, and above all, an unbearable pang of jealousy.
Nadine always claimed she loved him, yet when she needed help, she called someone else instead of him. That meant he was no longer the most important person in her life.
Nadine broke free from Brad's hold
and immediately glared at him.
"What's your problem, Brad?" she snapped. They were in the middle of a bus street, surrounded by people. Didn't he realize that she could accuse him of sexual harassment? Cóntent
After learning from the vendor that Nadine had called Sebastian for help instead of him, he couldn't quite tell what he was feeling. Had the woman who once cared about him the most really stopped caring? Was
he no longer her number one?
Her voice brought Brad back to reality. Grasping her waist, he asked in a hoarse
voice, "Why didn't you call me?"
What do you think?
