Chapter 1185 Pregnant
The nurses and doctors hurriedly went over and together helped Nicole up from the floor.
Just then, an elderly doctor came over. At the sight of needles in Nicole's arm, he immediately reprimanded them,
"Don't move her around! Get her onto the couch now."
Hearing his instructions, the nurses immediately carried Nicole to the couch.
The elderly doctor first took a look at Colton. After taking his pulse for a while, he found that the man was fine. Only
then did he heave a sigh of relief and instructed, "You guys treat his wound first. Also, the needles on him can be
removed already."
Colton was no longer in a serious condition after having the voodoo bug lured out of his body, but it remained to be
seen how he would react after regaining consciousness.

across his eyes when he saw the needles on Colton. He never expected to see such a sophisticated and precise
acupuncture technique displayed by a young lady in her 20s. Normally, to reach such a stage, one had to have
practiced medicine for at least a dozen years or longer. She's simply genius! Suppressing his surprise, he turned
back to Nicole's side.
Right now, Nicole was in a terrible condition. The acupoints on her arm were all sealed, and the resulting lack of
blood flow caused her entire arm to turn purple at this very moment. Furthermore, the voodoo bug was still in her
arm. The small lump was very conspicuous.
An extremely worried Rita hurriedly asked, "Doctor, how's my granddaughter doing?"
The elderly doctor stepped forward and took Nicole's pulse, upon which his brow furrowed deeper and deeper.
After pursing his lips, he turned toward Rita and explained, "Old Mrs. Gould, your granddaughter is not only infected
with a voodoo bug. She's also pregnant, which is why she's so weak at the moment."
"What?!" Rita was astounded. Had she known that Nicole was pregnant, she wouldn't have let her act so recklessly!
The elderly doctor continued, "Luckily, Miss Anderson has sealed her acupoints with a silver needle to keep the
voodoo bug from entering her system. I need to operate on her now to remove the bug, or she may lose the use of
this arm if this goes on."
At hearing this, Rita let out a breath of relief. Since she was old, she felt somewhat overwhelmed by this. That being
said, she had been through many ups and downs in life, so she soon regained her composure. "Alright then, I'll
leave it to you. If you need anything, just send someone to tell me, and I'll get it ready for you guys," she replied in
a grave voice. Then, she left right away without saying another word.
The doctor and others wheeled Nicole into the operating room. Now that she had sealed her acupoints with a
needle, they had to remove the voodoo bug as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, at Gould Residence, Evelyn boiled with rage while looking at the maid in her room. Lifting the table lamp
from her desk, she hurled it at the maid with all her might. "Get out! Get out of here!" she yelled in a hoarse voice
with bloodshot eyes, looking as if she were going to devour the maid.
She had thought that her scheme was flawless, but she never thought Nicole would dare to snatch Colton from her
at once. Being White's true apprentice, that woman might actually cure Colton of the bug. This is my last chance; I
mustn't let Nicole spoil it! she thought. But now, not only was someone standing guard at her door, but she was also
being watched inside her room. There was no way she could leave the room at all.
The table lamp shattered to pieces at the maid's feet. Frightened, the maid looked at Evelyn timidly. Mustering her
courage, she said, "M-Miss Wrenn, I'm here to look after you on Old Mrs. Gould's orders."
Evelyn's face twisted into a sneer. She raised her voice, looking extremely domineering as she yelled, "Look after,
my foot! It's clear that you're watching me! I'm warning you, get out of here now! Otherwise, don't blame me if you
end up dying here!"
