Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 1161

Chapter 1161 A Set Up

Nicole didn't breathe a word about this situation to anyone. She was faced with a lot of trouble after Colton was completely under Evelyn's control via the voodoo bug. Right now, all she could do was quickly figure out the source of the poison and cure him.

Meanwhile, Logan requested Natasha's presence in his office in the science academy.

She looked nervously at Logan and inquired sharply, "Mr. Yael, didn't you say that Nicole would definitely not be able to return? How is she still here?!"

Logan frowned at her tone, clutching his cane tightly in displeasure. Then, he replied solemnly, "Nicole came back on her own accord."

Natasha was full of panic and anxiety. Not only did Nicole make it back, but she returned to the science academy in public. As she had a hand in Nicole's disappearance, she was certain that Nicole would never let her off the hook!

Natasha looked at Logan and said slowly, "Logan, Nicole has ulterior motives in returning to the science academy. I drugged her; she's probably scheming revenge against me!"

Logan finally deigned to look at Natasha's panicked face, and a disgusted look flashed through his eyes. Frankly, if he hadn't thought it beneath him, he would have rolled his eyes at her short-sightedness. Regardless, there was still a use for this woman, so he restrained his temper and said gravely, "I know, but I have my plans to counter her schemes. Besides, I still need you to cooperate with me." He deliberately made it so that it seemed as though she was more than just a pawn in his chessboard.

Natasha's heart skipped a beat as she looked up at him in confusion.

Then, she heard the old man say, "There's an event at the science academy the day after tomorrow. There'll be a lot of media reporters in attendance. If you take this medicine, it'll give an illusion of miscarriage, and we can frame Nicole for it. I'll cooperate with you when the time is right. That way, we can get her expelled from the academy." Logan tilted his head and silently implied for Ryan to hand over the medicine to Natasha.

Natasha stared at the medicine in her hand; her eyes were full of worry. Her fingers curled around the cool glass bottle as she raised her head to look at Logan and inquired hesitantly, "Mr. Yael, is this medicine…"

He knew immediately what she wanted to ask. He instantly waved his hands and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just an illusion. I'll send someone to fabricate the pregnancy for you in the hospital. You just have to wait for the day after tomorrow's celebration and insist that Nicole did it."

There was reluctance on Natasha's face.

Logan chuckled and continued, "Natasha, do you think you have a choice in this matter? If you don't want to frame Nicole, you might as well wait for the Sword of Damocles to fall upon your neck."

Natasha stiffened upon hearing her words. She had gone above and beyond just to enroll in the science academy. She could not afford to allow Nicole to ruin her path to success.

Her grip on the bottle turned firm as the reluctance on her face was replaced by a sullen determination that she would do anything in her power to see Nicole removed from her life. After a while, she slowly let out a breath and said resolutely, "I… understand. The day after tomorrow… I'll definitely drive her out of the science academy."

Logan nodded in satisfaction. Then, he waved her away in dismissal and said, "Then, I suppose that you have some work to do."

Natasha didn't say anything else as she turned on her heel and left.

Nicole was searching through the laboratory to no avail as she couldn't find just where the voodoo bug was created. To make matters worse, she was running out of time. She had to research the bug quickly before she could think about creating a cure.

In the end, she had no choice but to call Nathan for more information.

"I don't really have any useful information about this, but I do know about the academy's involvement in culturing the love bug. Unfortunately, I am also unaware where this particular activity has taken place." Nathan pondered. After a moment, he added, "Not to worry, my wife seems to be more knowledgeable about this than I am. How about this, Nicole? Come to my house tonight, and we'll have dinner together."

Nathan was the director of the Durobrivae Town Central Hospital, and his wife was also in charge of the science academy.

Nicole thought over his offer for a moment and finally agreed. She was truly desperate to know more about this. "Okay, I'll come over tonight. I'm so sorry for the inconvenience, Mr. Zeller," Nicole said with lowered eyes.

Nathan laughed and waved her off. "It's nothing. If it weren't for you and White, our family would've been gone a long time ago. I could never repay your kindness in this lifetime."
