Chapter 1233 Commotion

Despite being in a daze, Nicole still managed to take care of Evelyn's daily arrangements. It was a given that she

was forcing herself to do so.

Meanwhile, Colton felt as if a colony of ants was gnawing at his heart, leaving him breathless while seeing how

distracted Nicole looked.

The quieter Nicole became, the more uncomfortable he felt.

"I'm tired. I'll rest for a bit. Keep an eye on the Yaels," Nicole said, both physically and mentally exhausted. She

didn't know how to face Colton either. Although she knew it wasn't Colton's fault, she couldn't approach him with a

calm mind.

"Nicole, I know you're upset about this, and it's my fault too." Colton pursed his lips, unsure of what to say next. He

thought everything he said would be wrong, especially since he had gotten another woman pregnant.

At that, Nicole's eyes turned red-rimmed with oncoming tears. Still, she fought them back and adjusted her mindset

before slowly turning around. "I don't blame you, Colton. The most important thing now is the Yael Family. I'll help

you with Evelyn and the child. Since it's yours, you should take responsibility. Alright, that's it. I'm off now. These

couple of days have been really exhausting."

With that, Nicole walked away, giving Colton no chance to speak. At the end of the day, he could only watch her

stubborn departure with furrowed brows.

"Mr. Gardner, why don't you attend to other matters? We've got this covered," Roxanna said, exhaling and briefly

comforting Colton before turning to leave.

Having finally learned the full picture, she believed Nicole must be down in the dumps.

"I want to see Colton. Are you all planning to leave me alone here for ten months?"

"You mustn't raise your voice here, Miss Wrenn. Please return to your room. You're not allowed to wander around

freely."

Noises of Evelyn arguing with a staff member came not far away, and Evelyn was being mulish.

"Miss Miller, Miss Wrenn insists on coming out and seeing Mr. Gardner. We explained the rules to her, but she

wouldn't listen. She's causing a commotion, demanding to see Mr. Gardner." A staff member rushed over, their

voice tinged with a sob.

Knowing that Evelyn tended to give the people here a hard time, Roxanna said calmly, "I'll handle it."

The employee's face lit up at once, and they silently followed Roxanna.



"Miss Wrenn," Roxanna uttered expressionlessly but politely. "This is a research center where many things need to

be kept confidential. So please nurture your unborn child quietly. Professionals will ensure your well-being."

There was no need for her to be kind and accommodating to such an unreasonable person. Basic courtesy would

suffice.

"Who do you think you are? You're still unworthy of talking to me!" Evelyn retorted icily while rudely sizing Roxanna

up. "Go and fetch Colton or take me to him."

She had gone to great lengths to use her pregnancy to bring her closer to Colton, but in the end, she found herself

trapped in this somewhat decent cage. She only managed to catch a glimpse of Colton, and she wasn't going to

take that.

"Miss Wrenn, Mr. Gardner has his matters to attend to. We can't reach him. I'm afraid we'll have to resort to

forceful measures if you continue to be uncooperative," Roxanna warned, ignoring Evelyn's hostile gaze, and looked

at the latter with nothing but abhorrence in her squinted eyes and furrowed brows.

"You!" Evelyn pointed a finger at Roxanna but had no way to confront the latter.

"Take care of Miss Wrenn. If she continues to cause a disturbance, use the same methods we use for difficult

patients in the clinic." Roxanna turned around arrogantly, and as if suddenly remembering something, she added,

"Just don't harm the child."

Evelyn bore into Roxanna as the latter walked away. By the time she snapped back to reality, the door in front of

her had been closed and locked.
