Chapter 1284 Working Together

"Oh? Does this mean the child is not Colton's?" Upon hearing Evelyn's words, Ryan was intrigued by what was said,

and his mood brightened a little. If Colton did not father the child, things would become more interesting. It seemed

like he had been too impatient recently, which caused him to miss such an interesting event.

"I'm warning you, Ryan. We're in the same boat, so if you expose me, I won't let you have it easy either." Evelyn

could tell something was wrong with Ryan's tone, so she warned him.

She would not allow someone like Ryan to ruin her plan. Colton could only be hers in the end!

"Don't worry. I was just asking. After all, you have to know your enemy well to beat them. Now that I've fully

understood my enemy, I found that I don't really understand my partner." Ryan's words were clearly provoking

Evelyn. He wanted to know more because it was too interesting to ignore.

"There are things you don't have to know, just as I don't know much about your background. Wouldn't it be better if

we kept some undisclosed secrets between us? Don't you agree, Mr. Yael?" How could Evelyn not know what Ryan

was implying? However, she was not the tiniest bit anxious and even slowly retorted to him.

"Fine. I'll help you arrange for it to be done, so don't worry." Ryan shook his head in defeat when he realized that

Evelyn was a tough nut to crack. Then, he ended the call.

Upon hearing the dead tone, Evelyn felt her racing heartbeat gradually slowing down. It seemed like the child's

matter was finally dealt with. Even though Ryan seemed unreliable, he always kept his promises, so she was finally

relieved. All that was left was to wait for the final results.

Meanwhile, once the call ended, Ryan's smile instantly disappeared and was gradually replaced by a horrifying

expression. I will make things even more interesting.

On the other hand, the lights were still on at the Gardners' Villa.

It was midnight when Colton arrived home, and he regained most of his consciousness on his way back.

"Mr. Gardner." The butler respectfully stood by the door and bowed when he saw Colton return.

Colton silently nodded while massaging his temples. The headache that came after getting drunk was unbearable.

"Where is Evelyn's child?" Colton's tone had eased up. After all, the people in this villa had been with the Gardner

Family for a long time, so he should not lash out at them.

"Already sleeping inside the room. Do you have any instructions?" The butler was taken aback but soon regained his

senses and replied.

After breathing deeply, Colton said, "Bring the child for a DNA paternity test tomorrow. I'll retrieve the results

myself."

"Yes, Mr. Gardner." The butler felt his eyes twitch.

Seeing the matter weighing on his heart was about to end, Colton suddenly felt relieved, and his mood seemed to

have brightened as well. Then, he walked past the butler and returned to his room.

In the meantime, the butler watched as Colton left and fell into deep thought. This was Colton's first return to this

villa after his divorce from Nicole, as he had been staying elsewhere the whole time. In addition, the butler knew

Colton disliked Evelyn, which was why he did not report to Colton when Evelyn gave birth. Now, it seemed like

Colton did care about whether the child in Evelyn's womb was his.

Slowly releasing a sigh, the butler could not help but feel resigned. He hoped Colton would get back together with

Nicole soon because that was the only way he could get back his smile.

When Colton pushed the door open and saw the familiar decor, he suddenly realized he had not been home for a

long time. The decoration in this room was exactly the same as the one where he and Nicole used to live. Now that

he thought about it, that was the time he felt the happiest.

"Nicole." Colton stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scenery while muttering.
