Chapter 740
Even in the face of Avery's biting sarcasm, Gigi showed no signs of anger. She simply pinched her fingertips in silence.
Gigi, who had always been spoiled by Evelyn, never treated people with much respect. If she disliked someone, she'd have no qualms about making their life miserable. Yet here she was, quietly listening to Avery's biting remarks. It was unlike her.
Perhaps sensing Nadine's scrutinizing gaze, Gigi lifted her head slightly and looked over at her. "I know I've messed up in the past, Nadine. It was all my fault.
"You have every right to reprimand or even hit me, but you haven't said a word, and Ms. Swift only threw a few jabs at me. You're both far more forgiving than I deserve. Ms. Swift, Nadine isn't great with words. Could you please reprimand me on her behalf?"
Nadine was flabbergasted. When had Gigi become so mature?
She wasn't the only one surprised-Avery also found it suspicious. She grabbed Nadine's hand and scratched the back of it, whispering, "Something's definitely off. I'll take Sean home first, so you can deal with her. If you need backup, call me, and I'll be here in a heartbeat!"
Sean wasn't particularly fond of his aunt and merely greeted her softly. "Aunt Gigi." He then walked away without a backward glance.
The only reason the boy greeted her was out of respect, and Gigi knew that. She pouted before continuing, "I'm really sorry, Nadine!"
Nadine glanced at her apathetically. "I accept your apology, but forgiveness is another matter. You can leave now." For some reason, she couldn't shake the feeling that something about Gigi was off. Was she after Sean?
When Gigi heard Nadine accept her apology, she straightened up and looked at Nadine with wide eyes. "Nadine, that house doesn't feel like home anymore. Please come back with me."
Gigi was straightforward and always spoke her mind-never one to beat around the bush. Elation swept over her when she realized that Nadine was willing to accept her apology, and she blurted out the one thing on her mind.
The corner of Nadine's lips twitched, and she looked at Gigi coldly. "Are you out of your mind, Gigi? Brad and I are divorced. I have nothing to do with the Hamilton family anymore. Why would you come here and ask me to go back with you? Are you feeling alright?
"Anyway, I'm busy. I don't have time for this nonsense. You should go see a doctor
if you're unwell." With that, she turned on her heel to leave.
Nadine had exhausted every hope she once had for Brad. There was no way she would go back to him. As for what Gigi said, it had nothing to do with her.
Gigi noticed her resolve and immediately rushed over to stand in her way. "But you love my brother, Nadine! Please don't give up on him so easily!"noveldrama
In the past, Gigi would have thrown a tantrum if someone rejected her, but that wasn't the case now. She remained humble as she gave Nadine a pleading look that resembled an abandoned puppy's.
