Chapter 1232 Pregnant
"How did it go, Colton? Was it smooth?" Nicole set aside her work and rushed to the door after learning
that Colton had arrived at the research center.
Roxanna followed behind, shaking her head helplessly as she looked at the somewhat joyful figure.
Who knew how Nicole would react if she knew Colton had brought a woman with him?
Upon seeing Colton''s grim countenance, Nicole parted her lips to ask only to turn grim before
speaking, for she found Evelyn standing behind Colton.
"I don''t know how she found me, Nicole, but she told me she''s pregnant, and it happened when I was
cursed," Colton said,cking confidence. Even though he knew Nicole wouldn''t be angry, his heart
ached for her, and he didn''t know how to resolve the situation properly either.
Nicole''s face turned pale. She knew that Colton had no control over being cursed, but for some reason,
her heart ached so much she couldn''t breathe. The air felt thin, as if it were taking her life away.
"Nicole..." Colton looked at Nicole with worry, standing helplessly in ce.
"Come here, I''ll check your pulse," said Nicole icily to Evelyn after taking a deep breath.
The matter couldn''t be dyed any longer. First, they needed to know if the child was actually Colton''s.
There was still a glimmer of hope.
Evelyn nodded gently, appearing aggrieved like a misbehaved child being lectured by an adult as she
followed silently behind Nicole.
On the other hand, Nicole never looked straight at Evelyn the entire time. The woman would stop at
nothing to achieve her goals. She had even colluded with the Yaels to curse Colton, disregarding his
well-being entirely. Thus, now, she didn''t need to face Evelyn with any kindness.
Colton watched everything unfold, hoping that Nicole could determine the true timing of Evelyn''s
pregnancy and confirm it wasn''t when he was cursed.
Nicole ced her hand on Evelyn''s wrist and couldn''t help but feel nervous. She hoped Evelyn was
lying to them. However, an ominous feeling quickly overcame her when she caught Evelyn''s somewhat
victorious smug.
Wait, Evelyn wouldn''t let us examine her without putting in even the slightest bit of a fight if she was
lying. That can only mean…
Nicole turned grim at that. Despite having figured out the result, she still examined Evelyn''s pulse
properly.

Time ticked away, and Colton waited by the side anxiously. He dared not rush or disturb the
examination, for rushing and making noise were thest things one should do during a pulse
examination.
Nicole, now beyond grim, slowly removed her hand. The result devastated her, making it difficult for her
to ept.
"So, Nicole, is it true?" Colton asked, approaching Nicole urgently, gripping her shoulder.
"She''s telling the truth," she replied with a hoarse voice, as she didn''t want to believe it and even feared
it.
Colton was stupefied, and he gradually released Nicole. He didn''t know how to face her anymore. Even
if Nicole didn''t mind it, he did. He couldn''t get over it.
"I''ve been telling you the truth this whole time, Colton. You believe me now, don''t you?" Evelyn
pleaded, grabbing Colton''s arm, her eyes red-rimmed. Even so, the smile at the corner of her eyes was
still visible.
"I…" Colton parted his lips, uttering only a single word before trailing off. He was too ashamed to stay
here any longer.
"Roxanna, let''s keep Miss Wrenn at the research center. She''s pregnant, so take good care of her and
make sure nothing goes wrong." Nicole took a deep breath, trying her best to calm her emotions, and
spoke in aposed tone.
Roxanna hesitated. She didn''t want to oblige, but upon seeing Nicole''s gaze, she immediately
swallowed her pride and begrudgingly responded, "Understood. Pleasee with me, Miss Wrenn."
Evelyn gazed at Colton, reluctant to leave him, but seeing that he had nothing to say to her, she left
with Roxanna with her head lowered.
