Saying Goodbye to My Troubles (Nydia and Mick)

Chapter 99

Mona smoothly turned the shocking situation round with just one sentence. Only then did the crowd slowly realize the scene that unfolded)

Mick's comment, "Mom's uncomfortable," did not refer to Nadia. It was actually a subtle reprimand to his son, implying that trying to find someone else to be his mother made hist real mother, Mona, uncomfortable.

So, the rumors about Mick being devoted to his wife were true. His son didn't hold much power at home.

Everyone around them smiled kindly, teasing them gently.

"Mick protects his wife so well. He's truly a role model for men.

"My husband's nothing like him. He only ever complains about me being fat."

"Sigh, good men are always so rare."

"Mick takes such good care of Ms. Poole. No wonder her career is thriving."

"Only someone like Mr. Wilcher, the king of comebacks, would let his wife stay low-key while still chasing a career in the entertainment industry."

These compliments elevated Mick to a high pedestal. If he played this up in the media, Wilcher Group's couple jewelry line would surely surpass other brands this season. It could even help improve the annual reports, further increasing Wilcher Group's value. But the price he had to pay...

His hands clenched tightly, veins bulging under the skin. A sense of foreboding crept into his mind. If he didn't seize this opportunity, he would never hold on to Nadia. "Nadia, I-"

"Mr. Wilcher," Nadia smiled gently, but her words cut through with chilling clarity.

"Please clarify. There is no relationship between you and me."

Under the spotlight, her smile radiated, making her features shine brightly, dazzlingly beautiful. But the light was too strong.

It was so strong that it made her seem distant, as though she were miles away from him.

Nadia's heart was also pounding. If Mick denied it today, that marriage certificate would be his greatest weakness.

If he wanted to protect the reputation of Wilcher Group, he would have no choice but to obediently go to the courthouse and file for divorce. Chapter 99

Nadia feared he might act impulsively, so she gently patted Ted's back and lowered her voice.

"You said you wouldn't be with me, and I promised I wouldn't fight for your custody. Ted, you're a gentleman. You have to be responsible."

Ted immediately burst into tears. He let go of Nadia's hand, his grip slackening.

Norman seized the opportunity to stand protectively in front of Nadia, afraid that Ted might suddenly change his mind and try to grab her again. To the onlookers, Norman seemed desperately trying to protect his mother from being taken

away.

Upon seeing this, Mick felt an even deeper sense of unease. Was she really not concerned about her own son?

He couldn't take it anymore and was about to step onto the stage, but Mona tightly gripped

his arm.

"Mick, I'm not stopping you from reconciling with Nadia, but didn't you notice? That person wearing the clown mask looks a lot like Eddie!" Mick's body froze. He turned sharply toward the stage.

Earlier, he had thought it was just a colleague Nadia had asked for help, but since the figure didn't look much like Nelson, he had ignored it.

He had only met Eddie three or four times, so his impression of him was vague. Plus, he had been so focused on "reconciliation" that he hadn't paid attention to this man at all. But now, when he looked closely, the figure did resemble Eddie quite a lot.
