Chapter 173
Ever since Nadine signed the divorce agreement, Avery had started addressing Brad as an asshole. He lived up to his name, indeed.
Avery had no idea how he had Nadine wrapped around his little finger, to the point that she wouldn’t even abandon him. And Jean still trusted him a lot.
Effortlessly navigating between two women unscathed, Brad was the epitome of a philanderer. Calling him an asshole was the least Avery could do.
Nadine also had Alex’s social media account. Upon Avery’s mention, she checked her social media as well. Seeing Brad utterly wasted on the sofa, she still couldn’t overcome the slight twinge of her heartache.
The condition of his heart made it so that he couldn’t endure such circumstances. Why did he drown himself in alcohol?
Nonetheless, she quickly banished her heartache. No matter what kind of a person Brad was, it no longer mattered to her.
Once he signed the divorce agreement, they’d legally be rid of each other. They would merely be strangers to each other if they met again.
Brad must’ve wanted to evoke Jean’s sympathy by allowing Alex to post such content on social media. It had nothing to do with Nadine.
She scrolled past his post and removed her mask. She turned toward Avery and questioned, “Why are y
you looking at me like that? Did I imply that I was going to go get him?”
They both knew who Nadine was referring to. Reclining on the sofa, Avery thought Nadine was about to leave when she removed her mask.
She sprang up and grabbed Nadine’s hand, reprimanding, “Where are you going? Nadine Scott, if you dare to feel sorry for that asshole, our friendship will be over!”
Damn it!
Brad had been fooling around with Nadine for years. What was he up to now? Now that his mistress was back, he should’ve just gone to her instead.
How could he dally around with Nadine while attempting to please Jean? Well, was he planning to marry two wives at the same time? The nerve of him!
Seeing Avery’s eyes turn bloodshot with fury, Nadine chuckled and patted her hand.
“Silly, I’m just going to discard my mask. Why are you so worked up? Also, that post was meant for Jean
to see. Not me.
“Why should I be flustered? He needs Jean’s concem, and it certainly has nothing to do with me. I’m still quite self–aware. Chill, don’t get mad. I’ll be back after discarding the face mask.”
Chapp
Nadine literally just voiced her thoughts out. Brad was no longer acquainted with her from now on. Even if he wished to meet her on his deathbed, she couldn’t care less.
Feeling dubious, Avery released Nadine. She was finally relieved when she realized that Nadine didn’t get changed and went into the bathroom to wash her face instead.
“Asshole, you should stick to that bitch as a pair. Don’t taint my baby. An asshole and a bitch–you guys are such a perfect match, though! My baby would do so well on her own!” Avery muttered.
She waited for a while on the sofa before Nadine emerged from the bathroom. She’d already washed her face, and she was currently applying night cream.
“Are you really not going?” Avery inquired.
To be honest, she found it hard to believe that Nadine wouldn’t go pick Brad up. She was well aware of
how besotted Nadine was with him. One would become ultimately powerless once love took hold, after

She was worried that Nadine was merely feigning indifference, and she still cared about him deep down.
Perplexed, Nadine glanced at her and asked, “What do you mean?” She sounded surprised. “Why should I NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
go? As I said, I’m not acquainted with him anymore. Don’t fret.”
She applied some hand cream after applying the night cream. Then, she lay back down beside Avery and began scrolling through her phone again.
