Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 1034

Chapter 1034 Be Nice to Her

Nicole wore an unpleasant look as her once slightly blushing cheeks paled. Her lips quivered subtly, and her hand hanging by her side tightened its grip. She felt that someone was squeezing her heart so hard that it caused grievous pain.

After a moment, Nicole glanced in Evelyn's direction. Contrary to Evelyn's expectations, she didn't display explosive anger. Instead, with calm composure, she retorted, "Oh, really? But maybe you've overlooked one detail—you're simply the illegitimate child of William. No amount of lofty airs as a supposed highborn miss can mask the low blood coursing through your veins."

Nicole's calm attitude immediately triggered a severe reaction in Evelyn's expression. Clenching her teeth, she fired back. "And who do you think you are to judge me? Well, perhaps it's simply a misunderstanding. Nothing more."

Even now, Evelyn had persisted in denying her true identity. The reason was that William was responsible for the fatal car accident involving Ella. If she were to accept this connection, an impassable chasm would form between her and Colton.

No way! I won't allow such a profound rift between me and Colton!

Observing Evelyn's demeanor, Nicole was acutely aware of her thoughts and let out a soft chuckle before speaking. "You don't even dare to acknowledge your own identity, Evelyn. What authority do you possess to pass judgment on me? At the very least, I am willing to recognize who I truly am."

Initially, Evelyn had planned to make a sarcastic remark toward Nicole, but much to her surprise, the tables turned, and she became the target of Nicole's irony instead. Her face reddened and resembled the color of a tomato while she tightly clenched her hands at her side. She took deep breaths and struggled to find her voice as she remained silent for an extended time.

Nicole casually glanced at her and opted not to say anything more.

Evelyn stood her ground and gradually collected herself before speaking measuredly. "Being Madam Gould's biological daughter doesn't change anything. So, whom would she prioritize saving in a conflict between us?"

Nicole had never regarded herself as overly significant. She never relied on others to safeguard her own life. With a cold smile on her lips and a hint of mockery in her eyes, she looked at Evelyn and uttered, "I have never believed that my value is derived from the opinions of others."

In contrast to Nicole's calm demeanor, Evelyn seemed increasingly restless. Nicole reclined in her seat and narrowed her eyes ever so slightly. She projected an air of indifference toward the unfolding situation.
