Chapter 1006 After the Choice
A smile of delight tugged on Nicole's lips, and she nodded. "I know. I'll see him once my wounds have healed."
Colton stroked her cheek. It felt warm and soft to the touch. If possible, he wanted to keep touching it forever.
Then, Nicole was reminded of Sasha, and her face darkened slightly. "What about Sasha's case?"
"She's still in the nation. I've set up a trap for her, and the hospital's security has been enforced. I'll keep you and
Hayden safe, so don't worry," he reassured. It was because of his carelessness that his woman was hurt, and he
would not forgive himself for that.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Alright." She stared down. She was not a saint; she would never forgive anyone who had inflicted such pain on her.
"What about Evelyn?" she asked. At the thought of these two women, she was overcome by fury, as they were the
ones who killed her child.
"She went abroad," said Colton calmly.
Nicole clenched her blanket, her pupils constricting slightly. She gritted her teeth, and fury flared in her eyes. A
moment later, she finally calmed down and asked flatly, "The Wrenns helped her, didn't they?"
Seeing the injured look on her face, he couldn't bear to tell her the truth, so he remained silent.
The woman, however, could already guess it. She buried her head in her hands, sadness filling her heart, and tears
fell through the cracks between her fingers. She sobbed and trembled from the pain she felt in her heart. She could
let go of the fact that Evelyn took what was rightfully hers, and she could let go of the fact that Jackson and Siobhan
took Evelyn's side. However, she couldn't conceive they would still help her, even though she had killed their
biological daughter's unborn child.
Seeing her so agitated made Colton's face fall. He wrapped an arm around her shoulders and softly said, "Don't
worry. I don't care who's helping Evelyn, but if I find out she's involved, I will make sure she answers for her crimes."
For the first time in her life, Nicole felt like she could rely on someone. She wiped her tears away and said, "I won't
let anyone who hurt my child escape, no matter who they are."
The man nodded in silence. He chatted with her for a bit before a call came in. It appeared the call was about
something important, as his face turned grim after the call. He then left without a word.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicole figured it was probably about Sasha, but she was in no condition to help, so she said nothing. After Colton
was gone, Siobhan came in.
Knowing that Siobhan had helped Evelyn escape, Nicole couldn't help resenting her. She looked away, refusing to
talk to her mother.
Noticing that Nicole must have known something, Siobhan went ahead. "I'm sorry, Nicole, but I just couldn't do it."
Nicole closed her eyes, refusing to make any response. In the end, you still picked her over me. You chose to
protect someone who hurt your own daughter and killed her unborn child.
"I know you're angry. I promise I'll teach Evelyn a lesson, but I can't just watch her go to jail," said Siobhan softly,
though her words felt like knives piercing Nicole's heart.
It tore her heart to shreds. Even breathing felt painful.
