"Ah!" Roxanna intended to wet a towel for Nicole in the bathroom but was shocked to see vomit on the floor. Despite her astonishment, she hurried back and anxiously checked Nicole's body. "What happened, Nicole? Why did you vomit so much?"
"I'm pregnant, so it's normal. Don't panic," said Nicole, her eyes brightening a little.
She knew Roxanna was deeply concerned about her. She had to be even stronger now so as not to worry those who cared about her.
"Could you please clean up the bathroom for me? I just remembered that I have something to attend to." Nicole glanced at her phone, furrowing her brows slightly as she felt a sense of urgency.
There was still no news from Colton. Worry overwhelmed her, and she couldn't put her mind at ease until she checked on him.
Nicole's voice was hoarse, and Roxanna stared at her with concern, unable to let go of her worries. Seeing Nicole getting dressed as if she was going out, she asked anxiously, "Do you really have to go out at a time like this? You're pregnant now. I'll have someone prepare some tonics or something. It's not good for both you and the baby if you're so reckless, Nicole."
Nicole stopped in her tracks. That's right, I'm carrying a baby now. I can't disregard everything.
"You're right." Nicole nodded in agreement. "Please have someone prepare it, but make it fast. I still have something to attend to." She had to take care of herself and her baby with Colton.
Baby? Evelyn Wrenn… Nicole instinctively held her chest, feeling a sharp pang as if someone had suddenly stabbed it when the name came to Nicole again.
As much as she didn't want to admit it, Evelyn did get pregnant when Colton was cursed. The timing matched. Hence, it was highly possible that the child in Evelyn's belly was Colton's. As for everything else, it could only be verified after the child was born.
She had been unwilling to believe this deep down in her heart, still giving Colton and herself a chance.
Nicole shook her head helplessly as she watched Roxanna tidy up the bathroom. "Thank you," she said gratefully. "You can go back to your work now. I'll drink the tonic before leaving. Don't worry."

What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
