Chapter 1145 A Ticking Bomb


    As the bug began to take effect, Colton felt his vision slowly getting blurry. He couldn''t help but lean


    closer to Evelyn.


    Watching him leaning closer to herself, Evelyn couldn''t contain the urge to reach out her hand to catch


    him. Her hand almost touched his cheek, but a voice at the door interrupted her.


    "What are you doing here?!"


    Evelyn stopped short in the air and turned toward the source of the voice, only to see that Nicole was


    standing outside the room.


    Nicole''s eyes had turned scarlet from rage as her gaze fixed on the hand that almostnded on


    Colton''s face. I''ll cut her hands off!


    Her voice had managed to snap Colton out of his trance, and he winced in pain after his senses


    returned to him.


    Nicole approached them upon noticing his difort. Then, she pulled Evelyn off him and dragged her


    out of the room.

    Nicole''s interruption angered Evelyn. Once the two were in the corridor, Evelyn swatted the other


    woman''s hand away. She used Nicole with a frown between her brows, "What do you want,


    Nicole?"


    Nicole watched her coldly. The shadow that fell on her face darkened her expression. She started in a


    low voice, "Evelyn, stay away from Colton."


    Evelyn shot her a smile of mockery. "It''s him who can''t live without me now, Nicole. Stop being selfish.


    You should leave him to me for his sake."


    Nicole found Evelyn''s words ridiculous and almostughed at Evelyn''s attitude. This woman is selfish


    like always.


    "Evelyn, do you know that the love bug would cause the host to hallucinate and weaken the immune


    system? There''s a possibility that it would harm his brain," Nicole sternly berated.


    Nicole seeded in using the Dragon''s Spine to create a cure to control the poison in his body.


    However, the Dragon''s Spine was useless when Evelyn was around.


    Therefore, all she could do was prohibit Evelyn from entering the medical base and getting near Colton.


    However, she didn''t expect Evelyn to sneak into the medical base and almost made a move on Colton.


    It would have been disastrous if I didn''t make it in time.


    Nicole returned to the room after chasing Evelyn off. Colton was curling up on the bed in pain. She


    immediately took the medicine and helped him swallow it.


    Moments after Colton took the medicine, his cheeks regained their colors. The voodoo bug had been a


    torture to his mind and body over thest few days.


    He looked up at the worried woman and soothed her, "I''m fine, Nicky. Don''t worry about me."


    Tears welled up in her eyes. Everything was fine until it went wrong at some point. The voodoo bug in


    his body is a ticking bomb. I need to deal with it as soon as possible, or it will take him away from me


    one day.


    She could never imagine a life without Colton.
