Chapter 954 Hayden Being Thoughtful
Nicole came to a halt at this point. She, too, wanted to get closer, but Colton stopped her.
"I know you're worried about Hayden, but given your current physical condition, you should probably stay still," he
stated.
Her hand froze in mid-air when she heard that.
Hayden stared at her with wide eyes and said smilingly, "Mom, listen to Dad. Since I'm now contagious, you should
stay away from me until I get better."
Nicole lowered her hand, but a sad expression crossed her face. Though she didn't insist on getting closer, Hayden's
thoughtfulness for her truly made her heart ache.
Nicole pursed her lips and looked at her son for a moment before saying, "Hayden, take care of yourself in the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthospital. I will definitely find out who is responsible for this."
Hayden nodded in response. His gaze remained fixed on her as he said, "Don't worry, Mom. I'm fine being alone
here. Dad and you should go out now."
Colton wrapped his hand around Nicole's waist and remained silent for a while. Then, he asked, "Hayden, did you
notice anything unusual on the night before you were poisoned?"
Hayden lowered his head and began to think about what had happened that night.
After a long period of thought, he raised his head and answered, "I had a deep sleep that night and I don't
remember anything."
Nicole knew her son's habits well. Hayden, like Colton, slept lightly and awoke easily at the slightest movement.
"Were you fed sleeping pills?" she asked with a frown.
"Hayden was asleep. This means that the drug, if there was any, was inhaled. In that case, there would be residuals
left in the room," Colton added as he stood off to one side.
"You're right." Nicole nodded in agreement. "We'll find out after we take the items into the room for further
examination."
Hayden was happy to see that they were getting along well and had even reached a tacit understanding between
themselves. After a light cough, he said, "Oh, Mom, please have someone bring me my laptop when you get back.
I'd like to look for some information."
Looking at his pale face, Nicole wanted to turn him down. However, Hayden immediately sensed it and added, "I'm
fine, Mom. I only have a few minor rashes and I don't feel sick either. The laptop is for me to kill time."
His pitiful expression immediately made Nicole's heart soften. "Okay. I'll bring it to you, but you must promise to use
it only when your body is in good condition."
Hayden's face lit up with a bright smile as he quickly nodded. "Of course. I'll do whatever you say."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter they left the ward, Nicole couldn't hide the concern on her face any longer. Although Hayden was fine now,
she couldn't help but wonder how he would have fared if the poison had been more potent. If something happened
to Hayden, she wouldn't be able to live as well.
With this in mind, she bit her lip and tears welled up. Her hands, which were hanging by her sides, clenched into
fists.
Colton sensed her emotions and put a hand on her shoulder. "Don't think too much about it. Hayden is fine now,
and that is all that matters," he comforted her softly.
Nicole let out a light hum in response. She had never expected that so much would happen in just six months.
Nevertheless, she kept her emotions in check and said, "Okay. Let us go back and get Hayden his laptop."
Colton nodded and the both of them then left the hospital.
Meanwhile, Beryl had brought his men to inspect all surveillance footage. More than ten of them were sitting close
to each other in the Gould Residence's living room, looking at the laptops that they each had.
Fortunately, the Gould Residence was large enough, or else there would have been nowhere for them to sit.
When Nicole returned, Rita was in the living room as well, looking at everyone else doing their work.
