Chapter 168 News Spreading Like Wildfire
Early the next day.
Although Colton intentionally wanted to suppress the news, the incident had be too hot recently. It
was almost as if it had grown its own legs, and it instantly filled the Inte in the morning.
Topics that flooded the inte included: ‘Lisa Refused to Withdraw the Lawsuit, Causing Danie to
Commit Suicide by Swallowing Sleeping Pills’, ‘A Life Was Lost Because One Refused to Withdraw the
Lawsuit’, and ‘Lisa Is a Murderer’.
Originally, after Danie failed tomit suicide, there was a lot of discussion about Nicole on the
Inte. Now that Danie had died, no matter what the reason, not only the media, but evenizens
agreed that it was Nicole’s fault.
Suddenly, Nicole’s personal ount was flooded with negativements.
Nicole turned off her phone after a few nces. After all, looking at these things for a long time would
affect her mood.
Colton’s vi was big, and there was a huge balcony on the second floor. Nicole and Hayden were both
here, so Whitney also moved here. Fortunately, there were many rooms in this vi, so they naturally
had room for her.
Colton went out early in the morning. Nicole took her son and Whitney to bask in the sun on the open-
air balcony.
The weather was just fine today. The sun was out, but it wasn’t very hot.
While Nicole was basking in the sun, the phone rang. She thought there was some news from Colton,
but she didn’t expect Zachary to call.
Nicole turned her head and nced at Whitney, who quickly denied it. “I didn’t tell him anything! Now
that the news is everywhere, maybe President Yates saw it himself.”
Nicole pursed her lips and smiled. “I haven’t even said who is calling me, and yet you are admitting it?”
Whitney felt that she seemed too worked up and touched her nose in embarrassment.
Haydenughed at the side. “You idiot!”
Was I justughed at by both the mother and son?
After Nicole finished teasing her, she hid aside and answered the phone.
“Nicky, why didn’t you tell me about such a huge thing?” Zachary did not use his usual gentle tone, and
his words held a tone of questioning.

Nicole pursed her lips and smiled. She lowered her voice. “I didn’t kill anyone, so I don’t have anything
huge to report.”
“But the current public opinion is against you, and there are even some rumors over here,” Zachary
said helplessly, reaching out and rubbing the tip of his nose, feeling a little tired.
Although Zachary had deliberately suppressed his voice, Nicole could still hear his exhaustion, so she
comforted, “Zach, I will handle this matter myself. You don’t have to worry, and just focus on your own
affairs.”
Zachary sighed deeply as hemented, “If I had known that so many things would happen, I wouldn’t
have agreed to let you work at the Gardners.”
Indeed, if she hadn’t gone to the Gardner Corporation, there wouldn’t be so many things happening
right now.
“It’s no use regretting what has already happened.” Nicole smiled.
“I heard Whitney say that you moved to Colton’s. Well, at least no one dares to go against Colton
directly in the country,” Zachary said slowly, his whole body overwhelmed with a sense of
powerlessness.
When the woman he loved was in trouble, he couldn’t help her at all, so he could only make a phone
call to show how much he cared.
Zachary evoked a self-deprecating smile—he was really a useless man!
“Zach, you don’t have to worry about me. When I finish working with the Gardner Corporation this time,
I will return to F&M Apparel,” Nicoleforted him. Too much had happened these days.
“Okay, fine. But if you face any difficulty, you have to tell me right away, and I can return to the country
to help you out,” Zachary said seriously.
Nicoleughed. She knew Zachary was too busy to take care of himself now, but he still worried about
her. When she thought about this, she softened her voice and said, “You don’t have to care about these
little things, okay? It will be dealt with soon.”
