Chapter 261 Kissed
Confused by his question, Nicole’s eyes widened incredulously. What does he mean? Could it be that he likes me?
Her frightening thoughts immediately sent a shiver down her spine. Then, her lips trembled as she asked gingerly,
“What do you mean, President Gardner?”
“Nothing.” Colton smiled. “I was just curious about your preferences.”
She didn’t reply to him and he, too, didn’t press her for an answer.
When her feet started to hurt after standing around in her heels, she walked over to the big couch that was there
on the balcony.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtColton quietly went along and sat beside her.
Despite the dark of the night, the entire residence was illuminated by bright lights. Unlike the people downstairs
who were socializing and enjoying themselves, the duo on the balcony continued to look at each other in awkward
silence.
Some time had passed when Colton suddenly stood up and looked down at Nicole. Just when she hadn’t had the
time to react, he suddenly lowered his head and planted a kiss right on her lips.
The electrifying feeling on her lips swiftly made her eyes wide again.
However, all he did was give her a small peck before he smiled and left her at the balcony. She didn’t even have
time to reject him.
Nicole only snapped back to reality after he was gone. He actually kissed me for absolutely no reason! F*ck…
Her heart was thundering against her chest as she began to wonder whether she had done anything that made him
think she was interested in him. She had a baffled expression on her face as she brought her hand up to her lips.
She didn’t think that Colton would suddenly kiss her. It’s a sneak attack!
Unbeknownst to Nicole, Joanna was beside the balcony when she witnessed the whole event transpiring. She had
seen Colton bring Nicole here and thinking that something could happen, she tiptoed after them.
It surprised Joanna to witness this. What was more, it was Colton who initiated the kiss.
She started balling up her fists when she realized what Queenie said before was true. Although she was previously
suspicious of her words, now she believed Queenie.
The man whom she had had a seven-year long one-sided crush on had now fallen for Nicole!
This was the first time Joanna felt a sense of crisis. Colton would show his indifference to anyone and everyone
even when Queenie was his fiancée, but she could tell that Nicole had gotten special treatment from the man.
She had quickly hid herself in a corner when he came back into the building from the balcony.
It was either because the room was dark, or that he couldn’t bother spending a second of his time to look over, but
Joanna successfully remained undetected.
She only came out after making sure that he had left. Looking at Nicole sitting on the couch, Joanna eventually
walked over in her high heels.
Nicole raised her chin slightly when she heard the sound of footsteps approaching, and when she saw that it was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoanna, her head began to throb again.
She was exhausted with having to deal with what seemed like an endless stream of problems that came one after
another. As she sighed to herself, she told Joanna coldly, “Say what you came to say and leave after that. Don’t
disturb my peace.”
Joanna thought of the scene she witnessed earlier and her dark eyes fell on Nicole as the corners of her mouth
twitched. “How shameful of you to seduce your own sister’s fiancé, Nicole!”
Nicole remained emotionless as she was being accused. Only her eyebrows lifted slightly as she glanced at Joanna.
“When did you see something like that? Also, what gives you the right to bark around here about Colton?”
In the face of Nicole’s self-righteousness, Joanna suddenly felt her anger explode.
“Be quick. I don’t like it when people come and bug me,” Nicole said with disdain.
As Joanna calmed herself down, she started questioning, “Why didn’t you say that you had the jewelry from Triton
Studio right from the start, and only brought it out before the banquet? Did you deliberately do it to make me look
like a clown?!”
