Chapter 451
After Ewan passed away, Jennifer wanted to find another man to marry, and Nadine supported her. After all, it was impossible for a woman without financial resources to support herself and her child in that era.
Every day, Nadine watched Jennifer go on blind dates with different men, humbly trying to please them. Although she didn't approve of Jennifer's efforts to cater to those men, there was nothing Nadine could do.
At the time, Nadine was only eight years old. Even if she didn't like it, what could she do? She could not oppose it.
As Jennifer went on more blind dates and met more men, an increasing number of them came to dislike Nadine. The disdainful looks those men gave her made Nadine grow even more quiet.
She was just a child without the ability to support herself. Whatever Jennifer wanted to do, Nadine couldn't interfere, let alone oppose. She could only accept.
But to please those men who didn't like Nadine, Jennifer eventually abandoned her daughter. From that day forth, Nadine gave up on any hope she had for motherly love. It was also the day she no longer considered Jennifer her mother.
Because Nadine never had expectations to begin with, she never felt disappointed in Jennifer. She just wished Jennifer wouldn't interfere in her life anymore. That was why she was so unfriendly toward Jennifer.
But Jennifer didn't see it that way. Her current life was miserable. Her man either hit, yelled at her, or asked her for money. If she didn't give him money, he would beat her so badly that she couldn't get out of bed for days.
Now, Samuel Gentry, Jennifer's stepson, was getting married. Without the wedding gift of 40 thousand dollars, there was no way he could marry the woman.
David Gentry, Jennifer's second husband, pinned all his hopes on her. To please him, Jennifer had no choice but to ask Nadine for money.
When Jennifer heard that Nadine was unwilling to give her money, she immediately panicked. "Nadine, I'm your mother-I gave birth to you. Without me enduring that hardship, you wouldn't be on this Earth today.
"How dare you talk to me like this? How disrespectful! If I expose how ungrateful you are, do you think the Hamiltons will still want you?"
Jennifer was seething with rage at Nadine. That little brat. How could Nadine refuse to give her the money now?
In the past, Jennifer would always get the money as long as she asked.
Sometimes it was tens of thousands of dollars, and at the very least, a few thousand.
Now, Nadine was growing bold, daring to refuse Jennifer the money she wanted. Jennifer couldn't simply let her off easily.
Listening to Jennifer's threats,
Nadine smirked. This was usually the case for Jennifer; she only remembered Nadine when she needed the money. At other times, she didn't seem to spare Nadine a second thought. Not once had Jennifer even wished Sean a happy birthday.
Was a mother like this worthy of respect? Did Jennifer deserve to be called a mother at all?
Taking a deep breath to suppress her disgust, Nadine calmly said, "Do whatever you want. I don't care.
"By the way, let me tell you one more thing. Brad and I are getting divorced. I have nothing to do with the Hamiltons anymore. I suggest you don't embarrass yourself by going to them.
"Well, I have to go to work now. I don't want to waste any more time with you. If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up.noveldrama
"Oh, and don't bother me again in the future. Don't come to me for money either. I don't have any to give you After saying everything she wanted to, Nadine decisively hung up. She left it in her locker and turned to head to the nurses' station.
Nadine's attitude toward Jennifer was nothing but cold indifference. If she could
sever their ties, she would've done so long ago.
