Chapter 146
Zoey was terrified of getting fired. She had worked for many wealthy families, but the Hamilton family treated her the best. Therefore, she didn’t want to lose this job.
It would be even more ridiculous for her to lose her job just because of how she addressed Nadine.
Sean stood up and placed his finished Lego model on the floor. Then, he walked over to Brad with his hands behind his back.
“What’s the point of talking about this now? My mommy isn’t even here! Just wait until she’s home!”
Sean continued, “By the way, I’m hungry. Hurry up and tell the maid to make me some food or just order takeout. My mommy said I had a
sensitive stomach. You can’t starve me,”
He had realized his place in Brad’s heart the day he was hospitalized. Brad didn’t like Nadine, and he didn’t like Sean, either.
So, Sean didn’t have to please him. Therefore, he spoke to him arrogantly and didn’t take him seriously.
Upon hearing him, Brad looked at him and asloed, “Kid, are you talking to me?”
Sean tilted his head and looked at him. “I just think you’re all talk and no action. Instead of grilling the maid, you should ask them to make food. I’m starving!
“When you were at work, Mommy would make me snacks so I wouldn’t get hungry while waiting for you to come home. But today Mommy isn’t home, and I haven’t eaten anything. I’ve been feeling hungry for some time.”
Sean pouted and rubbed his flat tummy, giving Brad a reproachful look
Upon hearing his complaint, Brad was at a loss for words. He didn’t know what to say. Moreover, everything Sean said made perfect sense. He couldn’t argue back.
Seizing the opportunity to prove herself, Zoey quickly said, “Mr. Hamilton, please have a seat with Mr. Sean for a moment. I’ll go to the kitchen right away and prepare something for Mr. Sean.”
As Sean watched Zoey hurriedly head to the kitchen, he added, “My mominy said she had prepared some onion rings and chicken nuggets. They’re in the fridge. Just fry them in the air fryer.”
Zory nodded eagerly. “Alright, Mr. Sean. Please give me a moment. I’ll get right on it.”
Even after Zoey entered the kitchen, Brad still stared at her retreating figure in a daze. He didn’t know Nadine was treated like that when h wasn’t home. Even a maid could look down on her.
After watching Zoey enter the kitchen, Sean didn’t say anything to Brad. He turned around and returned to his toys to continue playing
Brad felt neglected. Looking around the empty house, he suddenly felt a sense of loneliness. He thought about Nadine, wondering if she also felt lonely staying alone in such a big house.
At that moment, he really wanted to know what Nadine was doing. He left the living room and went onto the balcony. Then, he scrolled for her number on his phone and called her.

However, Nadine didn’t answer the phone. A stranger’s voice came through. “Who is this? Are you looking for Nadine? She’s singing Sullivan. Her phone is with me. Call her back later”
She didn’t give Brad a chance to speak and ended the call.
Brad looked at his phone’s screen as his gaze grew darker.
The phone call was chaotic, and he couldn’t hear it clearly. But he caught something about “singing“. He instinctively felt that something was
wrong.
