Chapter 1243 A Relentless Evelyn
"What?! Did you just say she's pregnant?" Colton sat up in shock, which irritated the wound on the back of his head and caused him to gasp.
The nurse chuckled and said, "Yes, Mr. Gardner. She's been pregnant for over a month. You should take good care of yourself first. Only when you're fine could you look after your wife and your child. As for now, leave Miss Anderson to me."
Colton nodded with a wide grin. Finally, he and Nicole had a child together.
He was still weak, and the news of his wife's pregnancy made him excited. Soon, he dozed off again.
When Ryan returned to the hospital and entered the ward where Logan had stayed, he realized that his grandfather was nowhere to be found.
"Where are you, Grandpa? Don't leave me alone!" He walked toward the bed and touched it, realizing that it was no longer warm, which indicated that Logan had left a long time ago.
Perhaps Logan left the hospital not long after Ryan did.
"Grandpa…" Ryan sat on the floor and leaned against the bed. His eyes turned bloodshot, but he pretended to be tough and refused to let the tears slide down his face.
"Colton… Colton…"
The next morning, Colton heard a woman calling out to him while he was in his sleep. Her voice was familiar, but it wasn't Nicole. Who is it?
He opened his eyes only to see a sorrowful Evelyn.
"Colton, promise me that you'll divorce Nicole and get together with me. Since I'm pregnant with your child, we'll live the rest of our lives happily together," Evelyn said while crying.
Colton furrowed his brows, for the last person he wanted to see was Evelyn, especially when he had just awakened. He recalled that when he was struck with the voodoo bug, he didn't bed the woman.
As such, it was unlikely that the child was his.
"Let go of me." Colton exerted himself to push Evelyn away. The woman before his eyes was revolting. He wanted to stay as far away from her as possible.
Evelyn plunged into a dazed state and fell to her bottom. She could see that Colton's icy gaze was tinged with contempt, which was so different from the past that it scared her out of her wits.
She had always known that Colton hated her, but she had never once felt horrified, but now, his gaze was so frightening that she trembled uncontrollably. W-What's going on with me?
When the nurse, who entered the ward to check on Colton, saw the woman on the floor, she said gently, "Miss, the patient needs more rest. Please leave him alone."
Everyone in the hospital knew that Colton's wife was Nicole, who was in the adjacent ward, and they were a loving couple. The woman on the floor must be his admirer whose love wasn't reciprocated. As such, she kept pestering Colton.
The nurse formed some speculation in his mind. Still, Evelyn was unwilling to get to her feet. She didn't believe Colton would treat her harshly.
The nurse felt helpless. Just by observing Colton's expression, she knew that he didn't love the woman. Left with no choice, she could only call on the security guards to take the woman away.
As Evelyn was lugged out of the room, she wailed, "Colton! I am pregnant with your child!"
The nurse's eyes widened in disbelief. Are rich people so promiscuous?
However, the hospital management soon blocked the news from leaking. If the secret of a wealthy man like Colton got out, they would lose their jobs.
When Colton saw the nurse cleaning up the room in silence, he asked, "Can I go over and see my wife, miss?"
He was worried about Nicole.
Hearing that, the nurse turned around and saw how concerned Colton was. At that moment, she suspected that the child in Evelyn's belly might not belong to this man.
After all, Colton loved his wife very much, so how was it possible that another woman was pregnant with his child?
