FULL NOVELXO Chapter 162
Chapter 162
Sean sighed. He wondered why these adults were so immature. He was just a kid, yet they always worried
him. He was bearing burdens he shouldn’t have had to at his age.
He thought that if Nadine didn’t want to see Brad, she would love to see Adam..
Seeing Adam would make Nadine happy. He wanted his mother to be happy, so he thought they should
visit Adam.
Thinking about Adam and remembering how kind and loving he was to her, Nadine felt her heart soften.
She wavered.
Nadine patted Sean’s soft hair and agreed despite feeling reluctant. After all, Adam had treated her very well. She shouldn’t be ungrateful.
“Alright, but you have to be a good boy and listen to Grandpa Adam, okay?”
Sean nodded earnestly. “I promise!”
Nadine smiled and sent him out of the kitchen before starting to cook. Adam was staying at their hospital, so visiting him wouldn’t take much time
She hadn’t been in a good mood recently and was afraid of disappointing Adam. Hence, she told Adam that she was too busy and only video–called him instead of visiting him in person.
Upon hearing Sean’s request, she realized she should pay Adam a visit.
Then, worried that she might run into Brad, she sent a message to Cameron. “Mr. Gomez, are you free to chat?”
Seeing Nadine’s message, Cameron quickly opened the chat and replied, “Yes, Mrs. Hamilton.”
Brad had been in a terrible mood for the past few days. He wore a long face every day and treated everyone as if they owed him a fortune. Just this moming, Brad had chewed out the sales department, HR, and marketing department, leaving everyone in shambles.
As Brad’s assistant, Cameron spent the most time with him and thus bore the brunt of his anger. Even the smallest issue became a reason for Brad to lash out at him
The worst part was that those reasons weren’t even valid.
In the morning, when Cameron had barely started his day, Brad stormed in, yelling. “Even a dog could make better coffee than you!”
Cameron was stunned. He wondered what he had done wrong this time. Why did Brad lash out at him?
He secretly tasted the coffee when he went to make a new cup, but it tasted just the same as always. He concluded that Brad was having a mood swing, just like how a woman would behave during that time of the month.
The entire office was tense. The employees barely dared to breathe for fear of drawing their boss‘ ire.
One by one, they sent Cameron private messages, asking what was going on. But Cameron didn’t know a
single thing.
When he received Nadine’s message, it felt like a ray of sunshine had broken through the clouds. He
almost wanted to grab Nadine’s leg and weep with relief.
He eagerly watched the screen, waiting for her to reply
After a few seconds that felt like an eternity, another message from Nadine arrived. “Does Mr. Hamilton have any plans this afternoon?”
