Even though he was sitting, Nadine, who was perched on his lap, was only level with him.
Looking directly into his dark eyes, she found herself smiling unexpectedly at his words.
"So, you're saying you have a responsibility to Jean. Then why didn't you wait for her? Why marryinstead? I remember you didn't want to marryback then and caused quite a commotion." Six years ago, when Nadine discovered she was pregnant, she couldn't accept it and tried to end her life by jumping into the sea.
If Brad hadn't saved her, she would have died that day.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer life had already been ruined by that scumbag. She didn't want to drag Brad down too.
However, Brad showed her his greatest goodwill.
Looking at the face that resembled that scumbag, she agreed with a sense of resignation.
Later, when Brad's heart condition nearly took his life, she devoted herself entirely to caring for him and pulled him back from the brink of death.
Due to this, Adam and Daniel were deeply grateful to Nadine and wanted her to marry Brad.

Do you think I had any choice?" Nadine let out a faint scoff. A bitter feeling welled up in her heart.
