Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1194 Out

Evelyn became angered by the sight as she stepped ahead and looked at Colton. "This woman's a witch, Colton. You should stay away from her."

Her slander warranted nothing but a frown from Colton. Anna then came in, and when she saw Evelyn, her face fell. "Why are you here?"

Anna's presence forced Evelyn to calm down a little. She hung her head low and whispered, "Colton just woke up, so I came to see him."

Anna sneered. Then, she acted unlike her usual, gentle self as she snapped, "Out. You're not welcome here."

Evelyn teared up and sniffled.

That would not work for Anna. She had been managing the family for years, and she'd seen her fair share of snakes. Evelyn's victim act earned nothing but scorn from her, and she waved her away. "Don't even try to pull any tricks with me. I know exactly what kind of woman you are."

Evelyn wouldn't argue with Anna, given that she was Colton's mother. She gazed at Colton for a moment and left as she was told. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Only after Evelyn was gone did Anna ease up a little, then she looked at her bemused son. Then, she said sternly, "Stay away from that woman. Nicole's your wife, not her."

Colton had just woken up, and he lost two years' worth of memories, forgetting both Nicole and Hayden. He remembered that Evelyn had saved his life, and he'd treated her like his sister, so he was

nice to her. Our families are friends too, so why's Mom so harsh to her? He frowned, confusion flashing in his eyes.

There's no way he can remember anything now. Nicole turned to Anna. So, Nicole gently said, "Mrs. Gardner, he's lost his memories. We can't force him to regain his memories, or it might cause a lapse in memory."

Anna gave her son a weird look, but in the end, she said nothing. Thus, she composed and looked at Nicole. "You two talk things out. I'll leave." Then, she left without another word.

Only Nicole and Colton were left. Nicole stood before the bed, staring at him, unsure of what to say.

In the end, Colton spoke first, "They say you're my wife, so that child is my son, isn't he?"

Nicole smiled bitterly, and she nodded. "Yes."

Colton frowned again, musing over something. A long while later, he slowly raised his head. Hoarsely, he said, "Sorry, but I don't remember anything about you or the child." He couldn't remember a thing about Nicole or Hayden.

Nicole slowly balled her fists, but she forced a smile on her face. "It's alright. Someday you'll regain your memories."

Colton stared down, still immersed in his thoughts. A long while later, he said, "Did something happen between me and Evelyn?" Judging from his mother's reaction, Evelyn had definitely something reprehensible enough to warrant that attitude.

"Yes, she did something bad, but that's not important for now. Get some rest. I'll help you regain your memories once you're all healed up," Nicole said nothing more. Colton had just woken up, and his memories were still a mess. She worried that forcing a total recall might be bad for him.
