Mr. Bradley understood what I meant and said no more. He just looked at Nadine with a look of disappointment.
Nadine waved her hand indifferently as she responded, “Since she is awake, there's nothing for me to do here. Julius is still waiting for me, so I'm leaving first.”
Mr. Bradley hit her with his cane as he yelled, “You beast! I don’t care where you go today, but you must come to the Bradley Manor with Alvaro tomorrow…."
Before he could finish his words, Nadine's figure had disappeared at the door.
Mr. Bradley sighed deeply and his back became more hunched.
He handed me the signed divorce agreement while blaming himself, “Alvaro, it's my fault for not educating the younger generation well.
“But the child is also your own flesh and blood. I hope you can see him off to his last journey.”
I looked at this old man with completely white hair and could not bear to refuse.
The next morning, I came to the Bradley Family's Manor dressed in black.
I had been taking care of this child since birth. It was a pity that it passed away forever before I could see him grow up.
I gently wiped away the tears from the corners of my eyes.
‘That's fine, Alvaro. In that way, you won’t have any worries and be reluctant to leave,’ I muttered in my heart.
After all, I had given my best to this marriage. So when it was time to leave, all I felt was exhaustion, not regret.
Nadine did not show up until the child was buried.
I did see a photo of her and Julius trying on wedding dresses on the trending searches.
Julius sent me a message with a proud look on his face. [So, what if you two have a child? Nadine still chose me in the end.]
[By the way, did you think that Nadine was taking care of you while you were in a coma? In fact, she was with me the whole time. We were in the bed next to yours and unlocked many new positions.]
In the video, my face was pale.
It formed a sharp contrast with Julius's rosy face.
I did not reply, but silently forwarded all the messages and videos to Mr. Bradley.
Then I took off my wedding ring.
Holding my mother's ashes, I whispered, “Mom, let's go home.”
***
It was not until night fell that Nadine returned to the Bradley Family's Manor, reeking of alcohol.
As soon as she opened the door, she was shocked by the wreaths everywhere.
“Who died? Could it be Alvaro's mother?”
She was still in shock and looked flustered.
“Why didn't you tell me about this big thing earlier? Where's Alvaro? He must be very sad now. I want to go and accompany him.”
Mr. Bradley, who could no longer bear it, handed over the divorce agreement. It hit Nadine in the face.
Mr. Bradley who had been suppressing until that time finally burst out, “Alvaro has left with his mother's ashes. Today is your son's seventh day!”
