Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1180 Remarriage

As she listened to Evelyn's nonsensical words, Siobhan could not hold herself back anymore. She lifted her hand and sent a slap across her face.

Taken aback by the sudden slap, Evelyn lifted her head to look at Siobhan with glassy eyes, but those teardrops refused to fall. However, she had already made up her mind. Even if no one were on her side, she would still marry Colton!

"Mom… No, I should call you Madam Gould instead. After all, I'm not your biological daughter, so you're always caring for someone else instead! You've never paid attention to my feelings at all, and Nicole is the only one in your heart now. You only think of Nicole as your daughter!" Evelyn roared hoarsely, her eyes brimming with tears and her voice choking with emotion.

Siobhan felt an ache in her temples as she looked at the woman before her. She had always treated Evelyn like a princess throughout the years, and yet it was as if Evelyn had wrapped a blindfold around her eyes.

Siobhan composed herself and steadied her voice as best as she could, persuading her in a calm tone, "Evelyn, I'm not against you being with someone else. However, Colton and Nicole had just held their wedding. If he gets a divorce and marries you now, people will definitely speak lowly of you."

However, Evelyn was like a stubborn mule, and she said forcefully, "I don't care! I want to be with Colton!"

At these words, a flash of red painted her eyes as she gritted out, "I don't care if you agree to it or not! I'm going to be with him! When Nicole comes back, make them get a divorce!"

As Siobhan looked at Evelyn, she felt as if she were under a spell, and none of her words would go through her head. She tilted her head toward Colton, only to see that his pitch-black eyes were blank and devoid of light, as if he were being manipulated.

Staring at him, she asked, "Colton, do you really want to get a divorce from Nicole and marry Evelyn?"

Although Colton heard her question, he remained motionless.

Evelyn reached out and yanked him closer, clinging onto him with her petite figure as she whispered something in his ear. A moment later, Colton slowly opened his lips and said, "Yes."

Siobhan observed the scene before her and couldn't shake off the feeling that something was amiss. Right now, Colton seemed just like… a puppet. Yes, a puppet that only listened to Evelyn's every word and didn't possess any emotions of his own. Although she had not spent much time with him, they had met each other enough for her to know that this was completely out of character for Colton.

Feeling dubious, Siobhan was just about to approach him to carefully inspect him, but her path was blocked by Evelyn before she could get any closer.

She stood between Siobhan and Colton, raising her voice as she said, "Mom, if you still think of me as your daughter, tell Nicole to get a divorce with Colton, and hold our wedding afterward."

Frustration began to build within Siobhan at Evelyn's persistence, and she furrowed her brow while

saying in a grave tone, "It hasn't been long since Colton and Nicole's marriage. Even if they go through with the divorce, aren't you afraid of being a laughingstock by rushing to marry him so soon?"

Evelyn immediately replied, "No, I'm not!"

She was not afraid of anything as long as she had Colton. After all, if she genuinely cared about how other people thought of her, she wouldn't have gone through all this effort to get her hands on him.

Evelyn paused in her tracks for a moment before she stared at Siobhan and said, "Mom, Colton was the one who brought this up. He might just think that Nicole isn't a good match for him. You have to respect his wishes." Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Siobhan's eyes filled with distress. She just couldn't understand why Colton would change his mind out of nowhere, and things seemed more perplexing the more she thought about it.

When she merely pursed her lips and said nothing, Evelyn, not wanting to waste any more time here, continued, "You just want to see Nicole happy, but what about me? Don't you want to see me being happy? Nicole is your daughter, but you've raised me for so many years. Is that still nothing in the face of your fickle blood ties?"
