Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1221 You Need to Help Me

Siobhan did not comment on how Nicole addressed her and hung up. Then, Colton looked at Nicole's upset face and asked, "Nicky, what's the matter? Did something happen?"

Fisting her hands, she hesitated before answering in a raspy voice, "Evelyn is coming to Durobrivae."

Surprise flashed across his eyes, but he quickly calmed down and looked at her. "It's fine. We'll adopt measures according to the situation. We can take this opportunity to see if she's telling the truth."

Nicole nodded, but for some reason, she could not help but feel inexplicably nervous when she heard that. Perhaps it was because Colton had amnesia. Though they lived like a married couple, they had not done anything intimate.

In the meantime, Evelyn did not head straight to look for Colton when she arrived in Durobrivae. Instead, she went to the science academy to look for Ryan. At first, he did not want to meet her because she was now a discarded pawn, no longer practical to him.

However, she waited for him where he always parked and quickly got into the car with him. He did not turn on the car and looked at her mockingly. "Miss Wrenn? What do you think you're doing?"

Looking up at him, she fisted her hands and replied nervously, "I have a favor to ask of you!"

He chuckled softly and raised his voice, mocking her. "Miss Wrenn, on what basis should I help you? From what I know, you're no longer the young lady of the Wrenn Family."

When Evelyn heard that, she felt her heart skip a beat, but she reacted quickly and negotiated, "I know about the relationship between the Yaels and Nicole, and I know why you were willing to help me back

then. You aimed to use me against Nicole, so we at least have the same goal. If you help me, it will be helping yourself!"

Listening to her words, Ryan kept his emotions hidden and calmly added, "Oh? Judging by your words, I need to work with you."

"Yes, you do. Also, you won't lose anything from it." She nodded.

He let out a soft chuckle as his bloodshot eyes filled with smiles. He laughed softly before speaking up, "What if I refuse?"

"If you refuse, I'll tell the media about our previous partnership. I remember you've cultured voodoo bugs before, but someone ruined it for you. If they discovered you've started cultivating them again, they will surely object to it. That, to you, won't be something good, right?" she threatened.

Right then, Ryan thought he had underestimated Evelyn. He kept thinking she was all beauty and no brain, but he did not expect her to be so savvy and even know to threaten him.

Although Evelyn was still nervous, she had put down everything and forced herself to say, "I'm not afraid of anything. The Wrenn Family has severed ties with me, but they raised me for more than twenty years, so if I suddenly die, they will insist on finding out the truth. I'm sure I don't need to elaborate on what kind of family the Wrenns are. Otherwise, you wouldn't have found me to help you scheme against Nicole."

He hooked his lips into a smile. It seemed like the woman before him was not foolish but knew everything. He thought she was a dimwit fooled by love, but now, she seemed sensible. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
