Chapter 239
Sean, accustomed to observing Brad's moods, had quickly learned to read the room.
Even though Jean's words over the phone weren't particularly insulting, to the sensitive Sean, they felt deeply hurtful.
He had complained to Brad, hoping Brad would punish Jean. But instead, Brad defended her, leaving Sean feeling even more upset.noveldrama
As Sean struggled to get down from Brad's arms, he glared at him and said, "Mommy said you were blind, and I thought she was wrong. But now, I see she was right. You're not just blind. You're not very smart either!"
If Brad wasn't blind or foolish, how could he ever think Jean was a good person? Sean was angry now and didn't want Brad anymore.
Brad, already simmering with anger, had planned to use Sean to manipulate Nadine. Now, with both Nadine and Sean defying him, he was livid.
"Sean Hamilton! Behave yourself!" Brad shouted. "What bad woman? From now on, I don't want to hear those words from you again. Take it back!"
To Brad, Jean was his first love, a beacon of perfection. How could there ever be a flaw in her? Even if Jean did say something to Sean, it had to be his fault. If he hadn't provoked her, would she have scolded him?
Sean was so young, yet he was already as stubborn as Nadine. Brad thought it was time to teach him a lesson. He believed that if he used a stern tone and a dark expression, he could scare Sean into never speaking ill of Jean again.
However, Brad had underestimated Sean. Sean not only ignored his words but also started loudly arguing back.
"She is a bad woman! She insulted me on the phone! I've never even met her, but she insulted me like that! She's definitely not a good person! You're blind for defending hert Double standard!"
Ordinarily, a child wouldn't know such vocabulary. However, while Sean lived with Nadine at Avery's house, the two women often talked about Brad, using a colorful array of words to describe him.
Sean picked up on this naturally through exposure.
In a moment of desperation, Sean blurted out phrases like "blind and heartless", "double standard", and "brain eaten by zombies". This only served to further provoke Brad.
Brad didn't give Sean another chance to insult him. He grabbed Sean's legs and flipped him over, positioning him head-down. Sean was completely bewildered and didn't understand what was happening.
When he finally snapped back into reality, he burst into tears and cried out, "Mommy, help me!"
Being upside down made him choke on his words. He kept coughing, causing his little face to turn red.
Seeing this, Nadine was furious. Like a protective hen, she rushed up to Brad
and, without saying a word, started hitting his arm.
"Brad, you jackass! Put him down! Are you seriously bullying a child? What kind of man are you?"
What do you think?
