Chapter 901

Nadine, who had completely lost it, resembled a crazed lioness—though she appeared more endearing than fierce. She would throw a tantrum if Brad drew slightly away from her. As she planted kisses on his chest, her hand wandered downward to his belt. Compared to Nadine's total loss of control, Brad seemed composed. That said, he was in a dilemma—a voice in his head told him to not miss the chance and devour her, but another voice argued that he shouldn't take advantage of her. She would hate him for it once she regained her senses. Overwhelmed by his inner turmoil, Brad glanced down at Nadine, who was nestled against his chest. He felt a mix of surprise and fear. While he was glad that she finally took the initiative, her formidable strength caught him off guard. For such a seemingly delicate woman, she had somehow pried his hand away from his belt with sheer force, though he had placed it there to stop her from unbuckling it. He feared that she would blame him once she sobered up. This wasn't her usual self, after all. Brad was in constant turmoil, so he had no idea that his doom was approaching. Just as he struggled to stop Nadine, his pants and belt both dropped to the floor. Nadine reached for him and wrapped her arms around his neck. He was at least a head taller than her, so she couldn't even reach his lips even on tiptoes. Frustrated, she whined and tightened her grip around his neck with all her might. Noting her strenuous effort, Brad smirked and eventually bent down, allowing her to kiss him. If he pressed the call button by his bedside, a doctor would have entered and brought Nadine away. She would be treated, putting an end to things that might occur later. He had to do so if he didn't want her to resent him. But Brad valued his benefits above all. He was a shrewd businessman, after all. Pressing that button meant he wouldn't be able to have his way with Nadine, which didn't align with his nature at all. As he felt the soft warmth in his arms, the thought of her hating him for it didn't even cross his mind. He had been holding back for so long. Why resist temptation when it was right in front of him? Only a fool would refuse! After an intense inner struggle, Brad's desires triumphed over reason. Not giving Nadine any more chances to fool around, he brought her to the bed and pinned her against it. Outside the window, the spring sunlight was radiant, and the flowers were in full bloom. Nadine's soft, intermittent moans drifted out through the gap in the window. … Zara hadn't expected Brad to be so ruthless. Not even giving her a chance to explain herself, he had Seraphina and the hospital director fire her immediately. What was so wrong about her falling in love with him? She couldn't bring herself to pack her things at her desk. All she could think about was what Brad and Nadine might be doing right now. That bitch had stolen her rightful prize! Otherwise, Zara would've been in Brad's bed by now. The more Zara thought about it, the angrier she became. She was unwilling to accept this situation. "Why did it turn out like this? I thought Nadine didn't even love Brad!"
