Chapter 1235 Unable to Rest Assured
"Ah!" Roxanna intended to wet a towel for Nicole in the bathroom but was shocked to see vomit on the
floor. Despite her astonishment, she hurried back and anxiously checked Nicole''s body. "What
happened, Nicole? Why did you vomit so much?"
"I''m pregnant, so it''s normal. Don''t panic," said Nicole, her eyes brightening a little.
She knew Roxanna was deeply concerned about her. She had to be even stronger now so as not to
worry those who cared about her.
"Could you please clean up the bathroom for me? I just remembered that I have something to attend
to." Nicole nced at her phone, furrowing her brows slightly as she felt a sense of urgency.
There was still no news from Colton. Worry overwhelmed her, and she couldn''t put her mind at ease
until she checked on him.

Nicole''s voice was hoarse, and Roxanna stared at her with concern, unable to let go of her worries.
Seeing Nicole getting dressed as if she was going out, she asked anxiously, "Do you really have to go
out at a time like this? You''re pregnant now. I''ll have someone prepare some tonics or something. It''s
not good for both you and the baby if you''re so reckless, Nicole."
Nicole stopped in her tracks. That''s right, I''m carrying a baby now. I can''t disregard everything.
"You''re right." Nicole nodded in agreement. "Please have someone prepare it, but make it fast. I still
have something to attend to." She had to take care of herself and her baby with Colton.
Baby? Evelyn Wrenn… Nicole instinctively held her chest, feeling a sharp pang as if someone had
suddenly stabbed it when the name came to Nicole again.
As much as she didn''t want to admit it, Evelyn did get pregnant when Colton was cursed. The timing
matched. Hence, it was highly possible that the child in Evelyn''s belly was Colton''s. As for everything
else, it could only be verified after the child was born.
She had been unwilling to believe this deep down in her heart, still giving Colton and herself a chance.
Nicole shook her head helplessly as she watched Roxanna tidy up the bathroom. "Thank you," she
said gratefully. "You can go back to your work now. I''ll drink the tonic before leaving. Don''t worry."
However, Roxanna was still somewhat worried, but she knew that as long as Nicole returned to a
stable state, she wouldn''t do anything foolish.
The worst thought had already crossed her mind when she was waiting behind the door. She was
afraid that Nicole might not be able to bear it and do something regretful.
"Okay, I''ll deal with Evelyn. You can rest assured." Roxanna turned to leave, only to turn around when
a thought hit her. She had to reassure Nicole.
Nicole curled her lips and gave aforting smile.
Not long after Roxanna left, a staff member brought the tonic over joyously. How could they not be
happy when their boss was pregnant, especially with the child of her beloved man?
Nicole obediently drank the tonic as she had promised Roxanna. After the staff member left, she stood
up, put on her clothes, and prepared to leave.
While waiting for the tonic to arrive, she attempted to reach Colton, but her calls remained unanswered.
Worried that something bad had happened and to put her mind at ease, she decided to head to
Gardner Corporation for confirmation.
Meanwhile, in a VIP ward, Ryan sat by the bedside, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at Logan lying on
the bed. In just a few hours, he had be much more haggard.
"What should I do, Grandpa? How can I save our family…" Ryan held Logan''s hand tightly and ced
it against his forehead, feeling somewhat helpless.
He didn''t know what to do anymore. ording to the usual speed the Gardners did things, they
must''ve already destroyed all five research centers and obtained evidence of the Yael Family''s crimes.
Their family was doomed through and through this time.
"Ryan…" Finally, Logan made a sound as he coughed. His voice was weak and feeble as if he had just
been pulled back from the brink of death.
