Chapter 1364 Thoughts

The room was silent for a while, and the two women sat on the edge of the bed while staring at one another. There

was a mixture of hope and determination in Chloe's eyes as she gazed at Nicole. She genuinely hoped for Nicole to

agree to this suggestion. Otherwise, if something happened to Nicole while she was at the research center, Chloe

wouldn't be able to forgive herself even if no one else blamed her for anything.

Nicole noticed the look of anticipation in the other woman's eyes. Well, Chloe's plan could work, but I'm just not sure

whether Kendrick would agree to this. After all, the initial agreement had been for me to be the one overlooking the

research center. It's my job to ensure that nothing goes wrong there, Nicole thought.

When Chloe saw the hesitation in Nicole's expression, she seemed to be reminded of something. Hold on. I was with

Nicole when she signed the papers, and one of the terms had been for Nicole to be the one overlooking the

research center. She wasn't supposed to be away. If that's the case, things might get a little tricky.

Chloe understood Nicole's concerns then. "I'll talk to Kendrick about this. He can't expect a pregnant woman to

travel in and out of the research center every day, can he? Furthermore, my idea would still allow you to overlook

the progress that is being made at the research center. It doesn't entirely go against the terms," Chloe uttered in a

slow and cautious tone.

Chloe figured that it would make more sense for her to discuss this with Kendrick than to continue allowing Nicole

into the research center. If Nicole continued to show up, it wasn't just harmful to her own health; it was also

distracting for the rest of the workers. Chloe was considering the bigger picture here. "Fine. You can handle

everything, then. I'll talk to him about it if he doesn't agree with our plan," Nicole finally replied with a nod. She

didn't have any other plan, and Chloe's plan seemed like the most feasible one. However, they still had to wait for

Kendrick's approval before anything.

Nicole couldn't seem to fall asleep after Chloe left. The latter had shut the blinds before she walked out, so Nicole

couldn't see anything from her window at all. Nicole lowered her head to glance at her own stomach. People claim

that pregnancy is the toughest ten months of a woman's life, but I don't seem to experience many of the

symptoms, like nausea. All that's troubling about this pregnancy is that I can't do the important tasks I'm

responsible for. Could this be because of the supreme voodoo bug? Nicole couldn't seem to find any other

explanation. Perhaps the supreme voodoo bug unintentionally lessened some of my sufferings. I guess it is a

blessing in disguise.

However, whenever Nicole thought about Colton, she found herself getting a headache. She didn't want Colton to

think that the child in her womb belonged to anyone else, yet judging by the situation they were in, she had no

choice but to do so. Forget it. This isn't over until everything has settled down, so I'll think about it then.

It was daytime back in the country, and Roxanna was overlooking the other researchers as they did their work at

the research center. The research center was a lot quieter ever since half of the researchers had left. This was

supposed to be good news, as it meant that things were going well on Nicole's and Chloe's end. But if that's the

case, then why do I feel so bad? Roxanna wondered.

Roxanna heaved a long sigh before she turned and headed back to her office. There were still traces of Chloe's and

Nicole's existence back in the office, and Roxanna often wished that they were still around. Roxanna spun her chair



around to face the window, and she felt a sense of achievement when she saw the research center from her office

up above.

"I'll wait for you guys, Chloe and Nicole," Roxanna muttered.

"Who are you waiting for?" Roxanna was shocked when she heard a man's voice coming from behind her. She spun

around with a look of terror on her face, but her terror soon turned into anger when she saw the person's face. "I

don't think it's nice for you to barge into one's office, Mr. Quill, is it?" Roxanna hadn't expected Isaac to show up and

even sneak up on her. She despised impolite people like him. I have no idea how I used to look up to someone as

rude as him, she thought to herself. Well, this isn't the time to consider such things, Roxanna told herself before she

snapped out of her thoughts and fixed her stern gaze on Isaac.
