NovelBookChapter 672 Brad had been lying in the hospital the past few days and during that time, he thought about a lot of things.

As soon as he heard Jean's voice, he glanced over and nodded at his mom's suggestion. "Sure! Wait for me, Mommy. Letclean this up first!"
Nadine smiled and helped her son tidy up the toys scattered on the floor. It didn't take long for them to everything back in its place. Hand in hand, they prepared to head upstairs to the playroom on the third floor.
To get there, they had to pass Brad. As they approached, they heard kim fuming at Jean gat Jean How many times do I have to tell you to stop hovering around me? Whether I'm healthy or not is none of your business!
"The only reason you're even here today is because of my mother, so know your place! You're just a guest-don't overstep your boundaries. Got it?"
