Chapter 1198 Cannot Betray Her
Treatment? But his only condition now is his amnesia. Panic swelled within Evelyn's heart. If he remembers everything, he's going to push me away again. So, she hastily stepped ahead and tried to hold Colton's arm, but he dodged away from her.
She stared at him, wide-eyed and sullen. "Do you hate me that much, Colton?" she said through sobs.
For some reason, Colton didn't even feel worried seeing her pout. Instead, he felt a hint of annoyance flaring within him.
Siobhan came. When she noticed the tension in the air, she pulled Evelyn over. "You guys can go if you need to. She's returning to the Wrenn Residence with me."
Evelyn's brows furrowed when she heard that, and she quickly refused, "I'm not going back!"
That gained her an icy look from Siobhan. She hissed, "If you're not coming back with me, I shall disown you. The public will find out about that, and you will no longer be a part of the Wrenn Family. You'd best think things through."
She's warning me? Evelyn gritted her teeth, tears glistening in her eyes. She couldn't believe Siobhan would go this far. So, she hissed through clenched teeth, "I. Am. Not. Going. Back."
How stubborn can she be? Siobhan's frown deepened. She knew Evelyn was obstinate, but she couldn't believe Evelyn would give up her spot in the Wrenn Family just to leave with Colton. She's beyond the point of no return.
Unfortunately, this was no negotiation. Even if Evelyn refused to go, Siobhan would take her away by force. "Pack your things. I'm picking you up later," said Siobhan stiffly. If she let Evelyn do whatever she wanted, God knew what she would do. She was doing this for Nicole's and Evelyn's good.
Evelyn had tears in her eyes, and she stared at Siobhan in disbelief. She couldn't believe Siobhan would use force, and she broke down. So, she shouted, "You can't do this!"
"I'm doing this for your own good. You staying with Colton will bring him no good," said Siobhan coldly, then she left with a huff.
With that, Evelyn knew that Siobhan had decided she would take her back to the Wrenn Residence regardless of her protests. She clenched her fists, nails digging into her palm, she was on the verge of tears, yet she couldn't say a word.
Night came. Despite Evelyn's reluctance, she failed to escape Siobhan's grasp. Siobhan forcefully took her away, and Evelyn struggled, roaring, "No! I don't want this! I'm not even your daughter, Siobhan! You can't do this to me!" Evelyn cursed and spat the foulest insults she could hurl at Siobhan.
Siobhan felt her blood grow cold. She couldn't believe the girl she raised would talk to her that way.
Once Evelyn was taken away, silence fell upon the household. Nicole and Colton were getting ready for their trip to Durobrivae. Since they were going for serious business, Hayden did not tag along, and Anna took him away.
Anna looked at Nicole and Colton, then she held her son's hand. She said coolly, "Never betray Nicole, get it?" He's lost his memories and doesn't remember her. Anna was worried he might hurt her with his ignorance.
Colton looked at his worried mother, then he nodded, chuckling. "I know. I'm still her husband, so I won't do anything stupid."
That promise was reassuring, and Anna felt better.
…
The couple came to Durobrivae in the afternoon. The whole reason Nicole took Colton here was because of their facilities. Maybe they could help him regain his memories.
She took him to the medical base. Gina was surprised to see Nicole return. She left in a hurry last time and seemed to disappear. Gina thought something bad happened. Through the science academy, she soon discovered that Nicole's husband was infected by a bug, so she couldn't leave him.
Yet, here she was along with her husband. Colton stood around, his attire casual. Even so, he looked regal. A moment of shock later, Gina put on a fake smile, looking at Nicole. "What brings you here, Nicole?"
Nicole chuckled and looked at Gina. Nonetheless, she cut to the chase with an equally plastic smile, "Why can't I be here?"
She had returned this time to confront Gina, no longer willing to play the long game. In just a few years, the medical base had become a cesspool all thanks to this woman's leadership. This base was White's life's work, and she would not allow Gina to ruin it. She came back to Durobrivae for two reasons: one, to treat Colton, and two, to take back the base.
"Oh, I'm not saying you can't. It's just that you left in a hurry last time, and I thought something happened to you. I'm happy to see you still in one piece," said Gina slowly, her fake smile still painted across her lips.
