Chapter 249
Adam had always kept a watchful eye on Brad and Nadine's marriage.
Following the principle of "letting the young deal with their own issues", he never interfered in their affairs. This was also what Nadine had requested from him
initially.
Adam had always liked Nadine and tried his best to accommodate her wishes.
At the time, when she stubbornly insisted on marrying Brad, he didn't say a word against it. Even when Nadine's due date didn't match their wedding date, he never reproached her.
In his years of business experience, Adam had seen all kinds of people. If Nadine had ever had any ill intentions toward Brad, Adam would have ensured they divorced without Brad needing to lift a finger.
However, after their marriage, Nadine had done nothing wrong.
When they first got married, Brad was in the ICU, relying on nutritional fluids to stay alive. Nadine, despite being pregnant, took care of him every day without help from anyone else.
She had pulled him back from the brink of death countless times.
Adam had seen resilience and kindness in Nadine. With such qualities, her character could not possibly be flawed.
Hence, he had always supported their marriage. But he was shocked when Brad began seeking a divorce from Nadine upon Jean's return.
Brad was truly heartless!
Unable to contain his frustration, Adam scolded Brad, "You say Nad is making a fuss? What has she done? Since Jean came back, what have you been up to? Do you need me to remind you?
"Brad, you should be thankful we're in a civilized society. Otherwise, I would have used a whip on you, taught you a lesson, and had you beaten to death!"
Knowing Adam's health was fragile, Brad had no intention of provoking him further. He stood quietly, listening to Adam's tirade.
It was unclear whether he absorbed any of it, but he remained silent throughout, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
"Grandpa, are you done? Can I say a few words now?" Brad asked.
He was well aware of Adam's health condition and knew better than to provoke him at this time.
Adam shot him a steely glance and said with a grim expression, "Spit it out!"
Brad tilted his head indifferently and
looked at Adam. "Grandpa, you're getting old. You should focus on your health. Leave the troubles of the younger generation to us. You should enjoy your life peacefully and not add to your worries.
"Also, let me clarify. The idea of divorce came from Nadine, and she's been causing all the fuss. I haven't said a word about divorce. You've also said that our family has its rules-only death ends a marriage, not divorce. I'm just
following those rules!
"If Nadine wants to make a fuss, let her. She'll quiet down when she gets tired of
it."
Hearing Brad's twisted reasoning, Adam felt a headache coming on.
As he attempted to rise from the desk to berate Brad, his body grew weak, and he collapsed back into his chair.
"You... You... Get out!"noveldrama
Seeing Adam's changing expression and unsteady movements, Brad quickly rushed over and helped him up from the chair. "Grandpa, I've? already told you. With your health, you shouldn't be worrying about our issues. Please, just focus on resting."
