NovelFinishChapter 587 Nadine still hadn't figured out what was going on when another colleague walked up to her, handing her a box of freshly baked buns.
"Nadine, you're so lucky! Someone brought you breakfast from The Brunch Bunch! That place is so popular that people line up for hours just to get a bite. It looks so good!" Without paying much attention to Nadine's reaction, the colleague stuffed the box in her hands, her eyes sparkling with envy before sauntering off.

Only her husband has the patience for it!" "Of course, it has to be Mr. Hamilton. Who else could afford such luxury? If not him, I don't know who else it could be." "Your husband is so good to you, Nad! Why on earth would you want a divorce? That makes you seem a little ungrateful, don't you think?" The news was spreading like wildfire on the Internet. It felt like everyone, even those who didn't know her, was aware that she wanted a divorce. Brad was handsome, fit, and wealthy, and he didn't mind that Nadine had a child. Even though the child wasn't his, he never said a word about it.
So, why would she want to divorce such a good man? What on earth was Nadine thinking? Why would she let go of a perfectly fine marriage? After hearing that, Nadine frowned and tossed the pastry box onto a nearby desk. Her almond-shaped eyes narrowed as she glared at her colleague. "Is a marriage where I feel like I'm living as a widow the kind of relationship you want? Because if it is, I can gladly hand Brad over to you." Noticing how aggressive and upset she was, another colleague hastily jumped in to mediate. "Oh, Nad, that's not how you should put it. You know how a marriage should be upheld above all else.
"Mr. Hamilton is such a catch, and if you go through with the divorce, you'll only be making it easy for his mistress, Jean, to take over.
"If you ask me, you shouldn't get a divorce. You should just let that mistress waste her pryears until Brad's stuck in a hospital bed and can't move anymore. Then, all his money will be yours. Plus, if he ends up in the ER, you get to decide whether he lives or dies.
"Just say the word, and the hospital will pull the plug. You'd have complete control over his life and death. Doesn't that sound good?" Nadine chuckled. She had to admit that her colleague's words made a lot of sense. She could keep dragging things out until Jean's youth was spent, and Brad was old, gray, and too sick to even walk.
That would definitely be gratifying. But if she really did that, she'd be wasting the pryears of her life on two awful people. It seemed foolish to trade her right topursue happiness just to get back at them. There was no need to ruin her own future over these two scumbags.

"Leona, you don't have to persuadeany more than that. I just want to end this quickly. I want to sayo m goodbye to this dead-end marriage and stop draining myself emotionally. As for Brad, whoever wants him can have him. I won't be taking him back."
Realizing she couldn't change Nadine's mind, Leona sighed heavily.
"You really don't see it do you? if Brad leaves all his assets to you, it'll be enough for you to live luxuriously for several lifetimes! Don't be silly and give it away to that mistress!"
Nadine smiled. "Thanks for looking out for me, Leona. I really appreciate it. By the way, you haven't had m Ve breakfast yet, right? Here, you can have mine." She grabbed the pastry box she had set aside earlier and handed it to Leona. The fact that it was sent by Brad completely killed her appetite. Even if she was starving, she wouldn't touch anything that scumbag sent her.
Her indifferent attitude made her colleagues realize it was best to drop the subject. Everyone returned to their respective workstations and went on with their day.
