Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1238 Nicole Is Missing

"Old Mr. Yael, you have to understand that if you don't succeed this time, you'll be staying in jail for a longer time."

Instead of getting furious, Nicole smiled. Naturally, she had seen through Logan's mind. The older man just wanted to bring others down with him when he was in a quagmire.

"You'd better keep your mouth shut, Nicole, for I'm well-prepared. Don't even think about leaving this place with Colton alive." Not only was Logan ugly, but his face was also full of wrinkles.

Upon hearing that, Nicole stopped speaking. If she continued to irritate Logan, he would likely kill her before Colton even arrived, and that would be bad.

In the past, she wouldn't mind losing her life. However, since she was pregnant with Colton's child now, she had to stay alive at all costs, for she had to protect their child.

When Colton saw the message on his phone, his pupils dilated. How did he even kidnap Nicole?!

He was no longer in any mood to deal with company matters, for he had to head to the medical base to see if Nicole was around. After all, Logan might've fooled him in an attempt to capture him.

He went through his contact list and realized he didn't have anyone's contact number from the medical base.

As such, he quickly grabbed his car keys and dialed a number. "Get ready to call the police and prepare all the necessary things. I've sent you a message regarding the situation."

He had to be prepared to deal with the possibility of Nicole getting kidnapped. If she wasn't in the medical base, she was likely captured by Logan.

Not only did he have to ensure Nicole's safety, but he had to arrest Logan as well.

"Mr. Gardner…" When Roxanna saw Colton returning in a hurry without Nicole, she had a premonition. "Where's Nicole?"

"Isn't she in the base?" Colton asked with a frown. Roxanna's question had given him the answer he needed.

"No—" Before Roxanna could finish her words, she was interrupted by Evelyn, who arrived in a rush. She turned around to look, frowning.

Evelyn ignored Roxanna and wrapped her arms around the man. "You're finally here to see me, Colton. I'm pregnant with your child. Even if you're not willing to see me, you should pay some attention to me for the child's sake."

Upon hearing that, the staff members looked at Colton in shock. All of them knew that the man was Nicole's husband, so why did he have a child with another woman?

Initially, they didn't understand why someone who had nothing to do with the medical base would be confined here, but now, they had some ideas in mind.

Without any concern for the woman, Colton pushed her away and demanded, "Stay away from me. It's not confirmed that the child belongs to me, so stop saying such things that would make others misunderstand."

"How did she come out? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on her?" Roxanna furrowed her brows. If Evelyn caused a scene, everyone in the base would see Nicole in a different light.

A staff member, who was responsible for looking after Evelyn, walked over and replied hesitantly, "I'm sorry, Miss Miller. When she heard Mr. Gardner's voice, she insisted on coming out. When I refused, she threatened to crash her belly into the table and kill the child. I didn't dare keep her grounded."

Upon hearing that, Roxanna stared at Evelyn with a conflicted gaze. The woman understood their weakness, which was to protect the child. That was why she had the guts to act recklessly.

"I got it. You guys can go back now. I'll deal with the rest." Roxanna nodded and glowered at the onlookers. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

When the staff members saw Roxanna's gaze, they hung their heads low and left in a hurry. It was their first time seeing the woman glaring at them with such a terrifying gaze.
