Jean wanted to make Brad fall in love with her again with this opportunity. The first thing she wanted to do right now was to remove herself from suspicion and stay away from Jessie.
She started, "Brad, I'm sure you know that Harry committed sexual assault. Aunt Jessie has been trying to use my connection to you to get him out of prison.

Jean rambled on, portraying herself as the victim. As she spoke, she eventually burst into tears and continuously wiped them away.
Brad lay in the hospital bed, his pale face showed no trace of emotion. He fixed his sharp eyes on Jean as if trying to see right through her.
He didn't believe Jean's words. He found it ridiculous that Jean was still trying to lie to him, even though they were already past the breaking point. He wondered if he seemed like someone who was easily deceived.
He decisively ignored Jean and turned to Daniel. "Dad, I want Nadine to chere. Is that okay?" Brad had always treated others indifferently, but now, he was pleading with Daniel. Everyone in the room was stunned, especially Jean.
She looked at Brad with widened eyes, refusing to believe what she had just heard.
She found it hard to believe that Brad would plead with Daniel so that Nadine would come. She thought that Brad was an unfeeling jerk. She wondered why he would want Nadine to csince he hated her so much. Jean was afraid that Daniel would bring Nadine here, so she said, "Mr. Hamilton, I can take care of Brad. He doesn't need anyone else. He's just mad at me, so please don't listen to him." When Jean was talking to Daniel, she purposely put on a girlish act, looking both adorable and cute. However, Daniel merely frowned when he looked at Jean. He pushed Evelyn away, who was linking arms with him, and walked up to Jean.
He said, "Ms. Sawyer, that's not right. Nadine is Brad's wife. They registered their marriage, so the law and state recognize them as a married couple. What's wrong with her coming to take care of him? "On the contrary, you're not his wife, yet you cto a married man's ward. It's not going to look good if word gets out, you hear?" Daniel knew Brad very well. Brad had once been so infatuated with Jean that he would bend over backward for her the moment she asked.
ean here Leaving Jean here with him would mess up Brad and Nadine's relationship: Brad was his only son Daniel wouldn't allow anyone to tarnishhis reputation, especially concerning matters between men and women.

Daniel saw through Jean's tricks. He definitely couldn't allow Brad to be involved with Jean any further.
Otherwise, the Hamilton family would never have a moment of peace. Daniel was mindful of Jean's pride and didn't say anything too harsh. Still, his words were overly direct, and Jean instantly broke into tears.
"Mr. Hamilton, I really do love Brad. How could you seelike that? What did I do wrong? Is it a mistake to love someone?" Seeing Jean being wronged, Evelyn
hurriedly walked up to Daniel and persuaded him, "You know how much Jeanie likes Brad, Back then, if in and stolen Nadine hadn't bad. Back then, if Brad from Jeanie, she would have been Brad's wife. How could an unworthy country bumpkin like Nadine even stand a chance? "Jeanie is a good woman. She
knows how to look at the bigger picture and care for others. She will definitely take good care of Brad Look, she's crying! How could you be so heartless? After all, you've watched her grow up all this time."
