Chapter 1258 He Will Not Divorce Her
Colton walked out of the research center in a daze, with Evelyn clinging to him like a persistent
shadow.
"Colton, I''ve heard about what happened between you and Nicole. This seems to be the only oue
since she cannot ept me," she remarked, noticing his distracted emotions. This deepened her
jealousy of Nicole, as she couldn''t fathom what made Nicole so exceptional that she deserved his love
despite her hurtful words.

Earlier, she had surreptitiously eavesdropped near the window while the couple conversed. Her
position was carefully chosen to remain hidden from Roxanna''s view. When she overheard Nicole
asking Roxanna to find her, Evelyn managed to slip back to her room. Consequently, she had no
knowledge of the subsequent conversation.
"Colton?" Evelyn called out tentatively after realizing Colton''s reluctance to engage with her.
As the man was immersed in his thoughts, he felt increasingly annoyed by her voice. "I''ll have
someone send you backter. Just focus on taking care of yourself during your pregnancy." His cold
gaze briefly flickered toward her before he abruptly turned and walked away, disappearing from her
sight.
After hearing this, Evelyn stood there, bewildered. Why? Why didn''t he spare me a nce even after
Nicole told him she didn''t want him anymore? "Nicole, since you''re on the brink of death, I won''t grant
you peace even in your demise!" Her eyes red with venomous anger, her words dripping with
bitterness.
"Mr. Gardner, Miss Anderson asked me toe and discuss the divorce matter with you. Here''s the
divorce agreement." A seemingly familiarwyer approached Colton as if deliberately awaiting his
arrival.
Colton cast a fleeting nce at thewyer. He recognized him as Nicole''s dedicated attorney, handling
all her legal affairs.
"Do you know why she wants to leave me?"
Colton''s question momentarily caught thewyer off guard. Suddenly, thewyer found himself at a loss
for words. He handled her legal affairs but wasn''t privy to the specifics of this situation. "Mr. Gardner,
you might be putting me in a difficult position here. As for the exact reason behind this, it would be
better for you to ask Miss Anderson herself." An awkward smile tugged at the corners of thewyer''s
lips.
After hearing this, Colton silently epted the divorce agreement from thewyer and began to study it
intently.
Thewyer breathed a sigh of relief at Colton''s response. This was standard procedure, and the
lawyer''s involvement had been an anomaly.
Suddenly, Colton''s expression darkened as a deep-seated frustration rose within him. The tightness in
his chest and his shortness of breath intensified his anger. "I won''t divorce her. Convey that to her," he
snapped as he tossed the divorce agreement back at thewyer. Then, he stormed off before the
lawyer could respond.
Thewyer was puzzled at Colton''s dissatisfaction while holding the divorce agreement. He was
clueless about what might have triggered this reaction. Miss Anderson has left the marriage with
nothing but a research center; everything else is given to him. So, what could have possibly dissatisfied
him?
Despite his confusion, thewyer ryed the truth to Nicole.
While listening quietly to thewyer''s words over the phone, Nicole responded weakly, "I understand. I
will take care of it. Thank you for your assistance. Please inform him toe to the research center
again tomorrow if he''s unwilling to sign the divorce agreement." A few more words were exchanged on
the other end before she ended the call.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Nicole, I''ming in." Chloe''s voice apanied the knock, resonating in the room.
"Nicole, it''s time for your medication," she said as she walked in while holding a bowl containing a
strongly-scented tonic. A pang of sorrow washed over her as she observed Nicole''s noticeably paler
complexion, yet she masked her emotions, maintaining a faint smile.
With a slight nod, Nicole gazed at her and spoke calmly, "Please prepare another bowl for me."
"What?" Chloe''s disbelief creased her brow. "Nicole, you can''t have that medicine anymore!" She knew
what Nicole meant when she said another bowl. Hence, she couldn''t allow Nicole to persist; doing so
might mean Nicole wouldn''t make it through another week.
