Chapter 83
“You wrongly accused Jeanie, so apologize to her immediately!”
Jean’s pale hands tightly gripped Brad’s arm as tears streamed down her face. “Brad, I want her to apologize to me live on the internet. She wrongfully accused me!” she choked.
Seeing Jean’s lips turn colorless, Brad’s heart ached even more as he embraced her closely. He glared fiercely at Nadine who stood not far away. “Apologize! Apologize to Jeanie!”
At this moment, he only had eyes for the ailing Jean and was completely oblivious to the sadness in Nadine’s eyes.
The wind on the rooftop was harsh, slicing through the skin like a knife. But what hurt even more was Nadine’s heart. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
To Brad, Jean was a treasure, while Nadine was worth no more than a roadside weed. It wasn’t her fault, so why should she apologize? Just because Brad told her to?
Everyone’s anxious eyes were now on her, full of expectation. To them, a simple apology from Nadine could save a life. They eagerly wanted her to apologize
“Ms. Scott, just apologize. It’s not hard.”
“Yeah, Ms. Scott. You can save someone’s life. Just think of it as doing a noble deed.”

However, they didn’t understand what this apology would mean to Nadine. It wasn’t just an apology. Why should she apologize? Why not them?
She could accept being ignored and hated by Brad, but she wouldn’t tolerate being wronged. The pain in her chest was excruciating, almost numbing
It took her a long time to find her voice again. “I didn’t do anything wrong. I won’t apologize! Brad, clean out that shit–filled brain of yours. Don’t drag me into this!”
Her nails dug into her palms, but she didn’t feel any pain. She looked at the man she once loved with a gaze full of unfamiliarity and sorrow. Could he not leave her with even a shred of dignity?
It wasn’t even her who accused Jean of instructing Lynn, but rather the netizens. It had nothing to do with
her.
Brad, infuriated by her words, stormed up to Nadine. His eyes were darker than ever.
“I’ll say it again. Apologize! Right now! This instant!”
Nadine shook her head. “Never!”
Brad’s icy cold hand suddenly gripped her neck. “Apologize!”
Nadine stared directly into his eyes, full of defiance and resentment. “Never! Strangle me to death if you have the guts!” After she said that, she shut her eyes.
Seeing this, the police and firefighters rushed forward and pulled Brad’s hand away. “Use your words, sir.
Don’t use violence against a woman.
“Ms. Scott, just apologize. It’s cold out here, and no one wants to be here. Just say you’re sorry. It won’t. hurt you.”
“Yeah, Ms. Scott. Look at it from a different angle and do it for our sake. Don’t make us all stand out here in the cold. Just apologize.”
The grip on Nadine’s neck disappeared, and she opened her eyes, still adamant about not apologizing
However…
She walked up to Jean. “You want to go live? Fine! I’ll do it.”
