Chapter 1433 There''s a Woman
Wendy and Beryl instantly fell silent, their gazes meeting as they turned to look at Colton.
Without wasting another second, Beryl pivoted and settled in front of theputer,mencing his
investigation into the matter between Isaac and Ryan.
Wendy, on the other hand, sat quietly on the side, nibbling on takeout as she observed the two men at
work.
Truth be told, she hadn''t seen Isaac in years. However, she found it hard to believe that Isaac could be
so weak as to not be able to handle a man like Ryan.
Beryl quickly found out Isaac''s whereabouts. After all, they had sought the police''s assistance, making
it easy toprehend the situation.
"Colton, it appears that Isaac has been under immense stress for a while now, and Ryan intended to
harm him. They seem to have had a heated altercation. By the time the police arrived, Isaac had
already copsed from exhaustion and is currently hospitalized.
After Beryl reported that, his eyes widened with surprise as he stared at theputer screen.
"And then? What''s the current situation?"
Colton''s gaze shifted to Beryl when he didn''t hear the second half of Beryl''s words. Seeing his
astonished expression, Colton couldn''t help but feel a twinge of annoyance.
Snapping out of his surprise, Beryl slowly began, "There''s a woman with him. Is Isaac dating
someone? When did he get a girlfriend?"
Wendy was taken aback by this revtion.
However, she reasoned that it was typical for a yboy like Isaac to have a woman by his side. "Isn''t it
normal for him to have a girlfriend?" she retorted.
Beryl shook his head, recalling Isaac''s decision to move abroad a few years ago. "No, he hasn''t been
involved with women since he left the country four years ago."
"Oh, he must have reverted to his old habits now that he''s in control of thepany."
Wendy couldn''t help rolling her eyes as she quipped. Isaac did hurt her best friend back then. Despite
their good rtionship, she couldn''t help but hold a grudge against Isaac when it came to romantic
matters.
"Wendy, that''s enough," Colton interjected, unable to bear any more of herments.
Wendy nced at Colton, wisely choosing to remain silent. She began to fiddle with her phone as she
wondered if Nicole had responded to her message.
Nicole woke up early the next morning to find several messages from Wendy. They all seemed to be
clear.
Colton had indeed proven hispetence by swiftly defeating Ryan and dismantling Kendrick''s power
in the country.
However, Kendrick still held considerable influence abroad, and his foundation in the country was yet to
stabilize.
Moreover, his judgment of people left much to be desired.
Nicole quickly responded to Wendy before turning her attention to the report. ording to the
experimental report, everyone was making excellent progress.
If they maintained this pace, they were bound to seed.
"Nicole, I''m leaving now. I''ve left breakfast on the table."
Chloe''s voice echoed from outside the door before it shut tightly.

Nicole set her phone aside, rising to exit her room. She looked at the breakfast that Chloe had
prepared on the table. It had been over six months now, and she hoped that time would pass more
quickly.
Her morning sickness hadsted only about half a month. During this period, she had to ensure that
nothing affected the child.
She needed to schedule a prenatal check-up.
Nicole suddenly remembered that she had been so preupied that she had forgotten to schedule her
prenatal check-up. She unlocked her phone and began to arrange an appointment.
This was her and Colton''s child. There was no room for error.
Upon unlocking her phone, she saw the top news headline about Kendrick. The headline was quite
shocking.
She frowned slightly, clicking on the headline. It turned out that Kendrick and his secretary were
rumored to be having an affair, and they had openly acknowledged it.
The article included a picture of them holding hands intimately.
Then again, how could Kendrick suddenly be involved with his secretary?
