Now that Colton brought that up, the serenity on Zachary's countenance finally cracked. Still, he quelled his

emotions and kept them to himself by saying indifferently, "I know, but I don't think you've contributed anything to

Hayden's birth besides that absurd night, haven't you?"

A gleam shone in Colton's dark eyes as he chuckled lightly before retorting, "Yeah, at least Nicole and I did spend an

absurd night."

Their childish feud was a raging headache for Nicole, prompting her to stop them. "Enough!"

Colton stopped running his mouth and looked at her affectionately. "Fine, we'll stop. You're still weak, Nicole. All you

need is a good rest." Then, he withdrew his hand magnanimously and gazed at Zachary. "I'll leave Nicky to you."

The ever-gentleness on Zachary's face was long gone. All that was present on his dead-pan expression was

indifference when he answered coldly, "Stop acting nice when it comes to her."

The corner of Colton's lips curled slightly upward, but he turned a deaf ear to Zachary's remarks. Instead, he

pinched Nicole's earlobe, seemingly in a better mood. "Get some rest, Nicky. I'll come back tomorrow."

After saying that, he returned to his car and hit the road.

Once Colton was gone, Zachary finally noticed her unusually pale complexion. The glint in his eyes lost its light.

"Why do you look so pale? What happened, Nicole?"

Now that he was showing his concern, she shook her head. "I'm fine. It's just that Madam Gould had a massive

hemorrhage, and our blood happened to be a match, so I donated some of my blood. I'll get back on my feet after

some rest."

The mention of blood donation caused a crease between his brows. Displeasure was written all over his face when

he chided, "You're anemic, and your blood type is rare. What if something happens to you?"

Nicole hung her head low at his reprimand before explaining her stance, "Madam Gould lost too much blood. If I

didn't do that, her life would've been in danger."

Zachary stared deeply at her and heaved a soft sigh, giving in to the situation. "I understand, but it'll be better if

you don't do that anymore. Have you forgotten how serious your anemia was?"

His question pricked her guilty conscience, and she lowered her head. She was indeed getting better in recent

years, but a crouch was enough to make her feel dizzy during the first few years.

After that, Zachary, who fell in love with her, gave her health supplements every single day upon knowing about her

health condition. It took nearly one whole year before they saw positive progress.



However, her current state was no different from reversing time back to her feeble state.

"I know, but the Wrenns and Goulds owe me one now. Even if we ignore all her backers, I still can't possibly turn a

blind eye to a matter of life and death."

He fell silent for a couple of seconds. At long last, he held her shoulder and escorted her back to the house. Nicole

broke into a smile at his careful actions. "I am anemic, but I'm a doctor as well. I know my condition best. So, put

your worries to rest. Nothing will happen to me."

Nevertheless, he did not release the tight grasp around her wrist or look back. "Let's talk inside."
