Please Give Me Another Chance, Mrs. Hamilton novel Chapter 170

Finally understanding what Brad meant, Nadine widened her eyes in surprise. With her gaze darting around, she finally remembered her question.

"I never said I was going to your company. Your number's still on my blocklist. When did I ever tell you to wait for me?"

Brad waited for her in the office for two hours? It was a rare instance, indeed. 

A proud man like him couldn't possibly wait for others. He was already giving the best of himself when he didn't make others wait for him. 

Sensing how unwavering Nadine was, Brad read the message Cameron received out loud.  

"The nerve of you to keep denying! Why are you so stubborn? Didn't you ask Cameron about my schedule?"

He wondered how she could still deny after the whole situation was already made clear. It was only then that Nadine understood where he was getting at. 

"Mr. Hamilton, overthinking won't do you any good. Next time, make sure to drain out the shit in your brain before you use it. Oh yeah, I only asked Cameron about  your schedule because I wanted to confirm whether you’re coming to visit Grandpa. That’s all.”

Alex entered the private room. Spotting his best friend drowning himself in alcohol, he kicked his feet gently.

“Are you still alive? You’re not dead, are you?”

Brad managed to straighten himself slightly, but he was still lounging on the sofa. He chanced a glance at Alex.

“Thanks for the concern. I’m doing just fine.”

Alex had never seen him in this state. He’d only drunk himself into a stupor when Jean left back then.

Noting how terrible Brad looked, he couldn’t help but ask, “Who is it? Is it because of Jean or Nadine?”
