Chapter 599 Adam wasn't in a rush to argue with Brad. He waited patiently until his grandson had finished speaking before responding, "Is it really that difficult to get a divorce? As long as Nad can provide proof that you two have been separated for three years, the court will surely grant the divorce." Adam was right on the mark. According to the laws of Janctera City, if a couple had been living apart for three years or more and their relationship had deteriorated beyond repair, either party could file for divorce without the need for mutual consent.
This meant that as long as Nadine could provide sufficient evidence of their separation, their marriage would be nullified.
Brad had never paid attention to these things. After hearing that, he felt as though he had been drenched in ice water from head to toe. He looked as if Adam's question had knocked the wind out of him. He stood frozen in place for what felt like ages. His gaze was vacant as he stared at Adam, his eyes devoid of light.

He had finally realized that Nadine could live just fine without him, huh? Brad was Nadine's everything when she loved him, but now that she no longer felt the sway, he was nothing but dirt to her. He couldn't believe that Brad hadn't realized this until now. Did all those years of education go to waste? Even though he was gloating on the inside, Adam didn't let it show. He picked up the handgrip again and resumed his workout. Watching Brad remain still and silent for such a long tfilled him with an inexplicable sense of joy.
Worried that he hadn't stoked the flames enough, Adam added, "Initially, I wanted Nad and Sebastian to date before they got married. After all, infidelity has beca common reason for divorce in this day and age.
"But she's so stubborn. She wouldn't budge no matter what I said. She kept saying it was wrong and that she couldn't do such a thing. She insisted on being just friends with Sebastian and said she would wait until after the divorce to pursue anything romantic.
"I can't believe just how foolish she is. Meanwhile, you're out there messing around with Jean all the time. You're filthy to the bone, beyond redemption, yet she sti cares about things like this. If only Nad could be as shameless and immoral as you, life would be so much easier." Adam was genuinely furious that Brad hadn't appreciated such a wonderful woman. All he ever did was bully her, turning a fine young woman into what she was now.
Nadine didn't hold it against him because she was mild-tempered. But if she ever decided to take it seriously, Brad's extramarital affair alone would be enough for the world to criticize their family for a lifetime.
Adam had heard that Brad recently locked Jean away in the old, abandoned house at Hamilton Estate. He didn't know the detail et but he knew that Brad wasn't someone who couldn't distinguish right from wrong. Jean must have done something to anger him to end up in that desolate place.
The fact that Brad could see right through Jean's facade meant he wasn't completely blind. But at this glacial pace, when was he ever going to win Nadine back? Nadine had already grown cold and lost faith in love, yet he was still dragging his feet, acting as if nothing was wrong. It was infuriating. What had their family done in their previous lives to give rise to someone like him? Brad stood rooted to the spot, consumed by anxiety, unable to find his voice for what felt like an eternity. He couldn't believe he hadn't thought of the possibility of a nullified marriage.
No wonder Nadine had been in such Nadine
