That voice interrupted Tyler's fantasy and stopped Nadine from doing her job. She could easily tell who the person was from their voice and footsteps.
When she turned to her side, she saw Brad striding forward and instantly withdrew her gaze, acting like she saw no one.
She asked Tyler softly, "How are you feeling now, Tyler? Better?"
His condition was too serious for her to be careless. Although harboring no romantic feelings for him, she couldn't forget all the times he had helped her.
Tyler's face remained pale, but his breathing had stabilized. Releasing her waist, he forced himself to his feet and squeezed out a smile. "I'm a lot better."
Nobody but him knew how delighted he was when he heard about Nadine and Brad's divorce. At the time he found out, he even visualized the rest of his life with her.
He would gladly accept Sean and raise him like his own. Then, they would have a second child, a baby girl that resembled Nadine. They would enjoy life as a family of four.
However, things wouldn't always go as planned. Even now, he hadn't seen Nadine's divorce papers or even heard her mention it.
Upon seeing his pallid face, Nadine ignored the oncoming figure behind her and asked concernedly, "Are you sure, Tyler? You look terrible. Maybe it's better if I send you to the emergency department."
She could tell Tyler was pretending to be fine based on how tense his facial muscles looked when he smiled. It was hard to watch. Despite his reassurance, she could hear his rapid breathing.
