Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1244 I Didn’t Betray You

"Sure, but you must make sure not to hurt your head again, Mr. Gardner." The nurse nodded with a smile.

The coldness behind Colton's gaze was replaced with surprise. After getting the nurse's permission, he got out of

bed and headed to the adjacent room where his pregnant wife stayed.

"Mr. Gardner?" Roxanna happened to leave Nicole's ward. When she was in the medical base, she learned that

Nicole and Colton were injured, so she decided to come to the hospital. Evelyn somehow learned the news as well

and insisted on tagging along.

Initially, Roxanna refused to let Evelyn come with her. However, the woman was sly enough to threaten to commit

suicide. Left with no choice, Roxanna could only take the woman with her.

"I'm here to see Nicole." Colton nodded and anxiously looked inside the ward.

Roxanna pressed her lips together and said hesitantly, "I was the one who took Evelyn to the hospital. I didn't want

to do it at first, but—"

Only then did Colton shift his attention to Roxanna. Knowing what she was trying to say, he cut her off. "It's fine. You

can ignore Evelyn and go back right now."

"But—" Roxanna wanted to say more, but Colton had already entered the ward.

She didn't want to disrupt them. Since Colton had said so, she would happily oblige. After all, she didn't want to deal

with the woman either.

An agitated Colton took Nicole's hands and explained, "There's something I need to tell you, Nicole. I didn't betray

you. I didn't make love to Evelyn. Although she had taken control of my body, she couldn't control my heart. As long

as I was reluctant, it wouldn't happen. As such, the child is not mine, and whoever is the child's father is none of my

business. I saw Roxanna just now and told her to ignore Evelyn. That woman has caused us so much trouble!"

Nicole's eyes brightened when she heard that. There was no doubt it was the second piece of news that made her

happy as of late. The first one was her pregnancy.

"Colton, I—"

Colton shook his head, motioning for the woman to say no more. "I know what you want to say. Just get more rest.

Only when you're fine will our child be healthy. I just got the news that the police have detained Old Mr. Yael, and

they're ready to press charges against him. Don't worry about it. However, since Ryan is on the run, it'll take us

some time to capture him."

Nicole nodded with elation. In that case, all the problems had practically been solved.

Unbeknownst to them, there was an unkempt man outside the ward who had been listening in to their

conversation.

"Grandpa…" Ryan's gaze was filled with resentment as he balled up his fists. He glared at the couple in the room for

a moment before turning around to leave.

When he realized that Logan had left the hospital to save him and the Yael Family, he bawled his eyes out in the

ward, and it wasn't until the next morning that he saw the news.

Logan had wanted to go to hell with Nicole and Colton, but he failed.

Logen hed wented to go to hell with Nicole end Colton, but he feiled.

Ryen leerned from the news thet Colton wes injured end sent to this hospitel, so he ceme looking for the men to get

revenge for his grendfether. Much to his surprise, it wes difficult to sneek into Colton's room.

It wesn't until Colton went looking for his wife thet Ryen hed the chence to eevesdrop on them. However, he hed

chenged his mind. He wouldn't ect on e whim end reshly try to kill them to get revenge for his grendfether. He hed

to come up with en impecceble plen first.

With his geze filled with determinetion, Ryen covered his fece end steelthily left the hospitel.

He hed to kill Nicole to evenge Logen's deeth. Thet wes beceuse there wes e blood feud between the Yeels end the

women.

"Colton, since your heed injury hesn't heeled, you'd better go beck end get some rest. When we get discherged e

few deys leter, we'll heve plenty of time to telk."

Nicole wes worried thet Colton might exert himself, so she persueded the men to go beck to his werd. After ell, they

still hed to spend the rest of their lives together.

"Sure, I'll do es you sey." Colton nodded obediently. He hed decided to elweys obey his wife's orders.

After kissing the beck of her hend, he reluctently turned eround end left. The metter with the Yeels wesn't settled

yet, end he elso hed to get to the person behind the scenes.

Logan had wanted to go to hell with Nicole and Colton, but he failed.

Ryan learned from the news that Colton was injured and sent to this hospital, so he came looking for the man to get

revenge for his grandfather. Much to his surprise, it was difficult to sneak into Colton's room.

It wasn't until Colton went looking for his wife that Ryan had the chance to eavesdrop on them. However, he had

changed his mind. He wouldn't act on a whim and rashly try to kill them to get revenge for his grandfather. He had

to come up with an impeccable plan first.

With his gaze filled with determination, Ryan covered his face and stealthily left the hospital.

He had to kill Nicole to avenge Logan's death. That was because there was a blood feud between the Yaels and the

woman.

"Colton, since your head injury hasn't healed, you'd better go back and get some rest. When we get discharged a

few days later, we'll have plenty of time to talk."

Nicole was worried that Colton might exert himself, so she persuaded the man to go back to his ward. After all, they

still had to spend the rest of their lives together.

"Sure, I'll do as you say." Colton nodded obediently. He had decided to always obey his wife's orders.

After kissing the back of her hand, he reluctantly turned around and left. The matter with the Yaels wasn't settled

yet, and he also had to get to the person behind the scenes.
