Please Give Me Another Chance, Mrs. Hamilton novel Chapter 819

The dream felt so real, as if it had actually happened. Even the sensation on her hand felt real, as if Jack was truly there, watching her. Nadine couldn't tell whether she was dreaming or already awake. Her gaze lingered in the direction where Jack had vanished, and she called out wistfully, "Jack..."

The next thing she knew, she was jolted awake by a rough shove.

"Nadine, wake up!"

Nadine opened her eyes, her heart sinking as Brad's face came into focus. Then, it hit her—she had called out Jack's name in her sleep.

Judging by the menacing look in his eyes, Brad must've heard her. Her pulse quickened, panic spreading through her chest like wildfire.

Nadine had no idea how to explain Jack's existence, nor did she feel obligated to explain anything to her ex-husband. Even though she had called out another man's name that day, it had nothing to do with Brad. They were already divorced. They owed each other nothing anymore.

Looking at the man glaring at her, she instantly felt wide awake, pulling the blanket up. Even though the blanket didn't move, the gesture made her feel safe. Nadine pulled the blanket up to her chest, but it did nothing to hide the anxiety she felt inside. She had no idea what to say.

Brad had been staring into her eyes, attempting to glean something—anything—from her gaze. But her eyes were like a frozen lake—deep, cold, and impenetrable. No matter how hard he looked, he couldn't see anything or figure out how she was feeling.

The name "Jack" was enough to pierce his heart. Had Brad come all this way with Sean just to let the boy see his mother? Of course not. He wanted to see her, too. He just wouldn't admit it, not even to himself. His pride wouldn't allow it.

"Nadine, you've really got some nerve. You're lying right next to me, yet you're thinking about another man? So that's what I was to you for six years? Just a replacement? Is that it?"
