Chapter 511 Heard Everything?
Even though Hayden had now gone out of his mind, he would quietly sit at the side if there was nothing going on,
and he wouldn’t even make a fuss.
Colton smiled and said, “Queenie said that Hayden was playing by himself when he accidentally fell and got
injured.”
“Queenie?” When Nicole heard Queenie’s name, her expression turned even worse. She frowned and said in a low
voice, “Are you saying that Queenie has been alone with Hayden before?”
Colton nodded.
For some unknown reason, Nicole suddenly got mad, and she immediately began reprimanding Colton, “How could
you leave Hayden alone with Queenie? You should know what sort of woman she is!”
Looking at Nicole, who was a little worked up, Colton reached out and patted her on the shoulder. He then

Hayden’s condition was like a heavy piece of iron that weighed upon her these days, and it was threatening to crush
her. Now, even the smallest thing could stir the woman’s emotions.
“Nothing serious? Can’t you see that large red mark on Hayden’s body?”
Nicole sniffled and continued with her eyes red, “We both know what sort of person Queenie is. She wants to marry
you, so Hayden and I are the biggest obstacles in her path!”
Colton fell silent. He probably never thought that Nicole would get so worked up. He was about to say a few words
to comfort her, but he soon swallowed them.
“Okay, I won’t leave Hayden alone with Queenie in the future. Don’t worry.”
Nicole also realized she was getting too emotional. She adjusted her temper, dabbing at the tears in the corners of
her eyes as she said quietly, “I didn’t mean to act like this. I just couldn’t control my temper when I thought about
Hayden getting hurt.”
Nicole found that she was more prone to anger these days, and she would make a fuss out of the smallest matters.
Now, Nicole’s mind was tense like a taut line, and she couldn’t bear any provocations.
Seeing how weak and fragile the woman was in front of him, Colton softened his expression and reached out to hug
Nicole. He pulled her in his embrace as he comforted her by saying, “It’s okay, my research lab is finalizing their
study, and they are confident that this illness can be cured.”
A stunned Nicole looked up at Colton and her voice trembled as she asked, “Really?”
Seeing Nicole’s hopeful look, Colton felt as if his whole neck had stiffened. He couldn’t shake his head as he smiled
and nodded.
“Yes.”
Joy bloomed on Nicole’s face as she sniffled and said, “Thank you, Colton.”
Colton didn’t say much. He looked at Nicole’s exhausted face and said quietly, “Go back and rest well. I’ll have
Hayden cured as soon as possible.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNicole was truly too fatigued, and she didn’t want to move at all. As such, she nodded.
When Nicole left, Colton went back to his room. As soon as he opened the door, he found Hayden crouching beside
it. He seemed to be listening in on the conversation.
Colton smiled, then reached out and carried Hayden back to the bed. Even though there was a thick carpet on the
floor, it still wasn’t ideal to walk around bare-footed.
He looked at Hayden on the bed and asked, “When did you wake up?”
Hayden seemed to be a little upset as he replied in a low voice, “I woke up when Mom came in.”
“So, you heard everything between Nicole and I?” Colton asked.
Hayden nodded. “Yes.”
Seeing his grave face, Colton knew that Hayden was thinking of coming back, so he asked straight away, “When are
you giving up on this act?”
“Tomorrow.”
Hayden’s reply was resolute. He originally wanted to fake it until Queenie’s wedding, but seeing how troubled his
mother was about his own condition, as well as how out of sorts she was, Hayden couldn’t keep up the act
anymore.
