Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1212 Chloe Yelton

As soon as Evelyn mentioned being his savior, Colton's demeanor softened slightly. He knew he would have died long ago if she hadn't rescued him on that cold winter day. "I've heard what you have to say. Just take care of yourself. Once I regain my memories, if things did happen as you claim, I'll make it up to you," he said grimly.

In response, she gripped her phone even more tightly, though she wasn't sure if it was out of anticipation or apprehension. He is willing to accept the situation if he regains his memory. This statement filled her with dread. If he recovers his memories, he will recall what I did and be even less inclined to approach me. At this realization, she became anxious and distractedly hung up the phone.

In contrast, the man creased his brow as he stared at his phone. Despite his inability to recall any of this, his gut instinct told him that she was lying. Nevertheless, he lowered his eyes and didn't dwell on that feeling.

Meanwhile, Nicole kept herself busy to keep her mind off of things. She was terrified for no apparent reason, but it was most likely due to Colton regaining his memories and telling him that he had slept with Evelyn.

She grinned bitterly as she thought about it. Then, she ran a hand over her belly, which was still flat and unnoticeable because she was in the early stages of pregnancy. Nonetheless, the signs were already present, as she frequently experienced nausea and discomfort.

After that, Nicole sighed and knew that if the Goulds found out, things would get messy again. She was aware of Siobhan's conflicted emotions, as she was torn between the daughter she raised and her biological daughter. Due to this matter, Siobhan was under significant stress.

Despite this, Nicole had no intention of doing anything because she didn't want to make Siobhan's life more complicated than it already was. In addition, she and Evelyn's identities had been switched due to Madeline. Although Siobhan was an unwitting victim, she never complained about anything.

"D-Dr. Anderson."

While Nicole was deep in thought, a timid voice called out to her.

Then, she looked up and saw a young woman standing before her.

The young woman appeared to be in her early twenties. She was dressed only in a plain white T-shirt, and her eyes were as pure and innocent as a deer's. She seemed to be about five feet three and approximately 130 pounds. Also, her round cheeks made her look even more adorable.

Nicole racked her brain quickly but couldn't place the woman, so she eyed the woman curiously and asked, "You're—"

However, the young woman turned scarlet and said, "N-Nice to meet you, Dr. Anderson. I'm Chloe Yelton. I'm in charge of the medicinal supplies here at the medical base." After saying this, Chloe lowered her head in embarrassment and pondered what to say next.

After observing her reaction, Nicole felt a little helpless, and after pausing in thought for a moment, she queried, "Is there a reason why you came to see me?" NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

When Chloe heard this, she quickly explained, "Yes… A long time ago, when Ms. Feu… Gina was still around; she took many things from the medicinal supplies, but none were used in the medical base. Here are the records. Please take a look." While saying this, she passed a piece of paper over.

As Nicole read the paper, she noticed a list of everything Gina had taken from the medical base. Then, she looked up curiously and asked, "If she took the items to sell them off privately, it only stands to reason that she would've ensured her actions were untraceable. How did you find out about this?"

When Chloe heard the question, she looked down nervously. She flushed again and stammered out a clear response. "I joined the science academy before Gina. I was here during Mr. White's time, so Gina couldn't get rid of me. Whenever she wanted to take any kind of medicinal supplies, she had to go through me."
