Chapter 1171 Bone-Tired
Nathan sighed as he noticed the state Nicole was in. He reached out to pat her shoulder and said, "I
know you''re anxious for results, but you can''t do this to your body. If you keep this up, you''ll fall sick
before you save him."
Nicole shut her sore eyes as she hadn''t slept wellst night. She nodded and said with a feeble smile,
"I know. Don''t worry, Nathan."
Right after she finished talking, she felt her stomach turn. Her hand went to her mouth trying to squash
the urge to vomit down, but she couldn''t hold it back and retched beside the trash can. She hadn''t
eaten all day and all she could throw up was bile.
Nathan couldn''t bear to see how terribly she was pushing herself. So, he supported her frail body
before warning sternly, "Jennifer made food for you. You''re going to eat them and get some rest. If you
don''t do those things, you can forget about using thisb for your research."
Even though Nathan sounded harsh, she knew he meant well. So, despite her worries about Colton,
she also knew that her health would only deteriorate if she pushed her body too hard.
She massaged her temple as she wondered what happened to her stamina. Recently, she felt that her
energy levels had dropped drastically as if she could faint any second.

"Alright. I''ll take a break. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Zeller." She released a sigh before dragging
her fatigued body to the Zeller Residence with Nathan apanying her along the way.
Nicole was about to go home after she had a simple meal. But Nathan noticed her utterly knackered
state and forced her to rest at his home.
Nicole didn''t have the energy to decline and went into the guest room. She immediately fell into a deep
slumber as soon as her head hit the pillow as she was bone tired.
She slept until 1.00PM and woke up in a daze. Her eyes were half open as she remained on the bed
for a while as her mind slowly rebooted itself to life.
She muttered something under her breath before slowly sitting up. To make matters worse, her head
felt heavy after her nap. Then, she reached for her phone to find that it was already past 1.00PM.
Last night in theboratory, she made considerable progress regarding her research about this
particr voodoo bug and recalled that the library in the medical base had some books on them.
s, as she remembered the letter she saw in Logan''s study, she knew she had to make a trip to the
science academy.
When Gina was at the medical base, she would always exchange things in the base for money from
the science academy. So, Nicole was certain that the precious books were long gone.
Nicole endured the headache and got up to pour herself a ss of water before finally feeling better.
Even though she had a nap, her temple was still throbbing. Regardless, she was a woman on a
mission. So, she forced herself to calm down before getting ready to leave.
When she went downstairs, Nathan wasn''t around and only Jennifer was there. Jennifer immediately
caught sight of her and gestured for her to sit down.
"Have some soup. You''ve totally messed up your circadian rhythm. You know that''s not good for your
body," Jennifer told her gently.
Nicole didn''t refuse her kindness and picked up the spoon to eat.
The corn soup was a little sweet and suited her taste buds. Soon, she finished the whole bowl and
rubbed her eyes before turning around to look at Jennifer, "Mrs. Zeller, I want to go to the science
academy."
Jennifer furrowed her brows at her statement andmented after some thought, "There''s a
celebration at the academy today. It''ll be crowded. You''re not in the best of health…"
Nicole noticed Jennifer''s hesitation and knew that the older woman was genuinely worried about her.
So, she uttered in a low voice, "I want to look for something there. It''ll be easier to do it with the crowd."
