Chapter 1256 A Little More Dignity

Meanwhile, Roxanna remained deeply concerned about Nicole's condition. However, as soon as the door swung open, her worries eased upon seeing Nicole's improved complexion. Nevertheless, her emotional state plunged into a rollercoaster when she knew this improvement was temporary, lasting only a day.

"Nicole, are you certain your body is truly alright?" Her voice trembled with concern as her desire to confide in Colton grew stronger. Despite her yearning to tell him, Nicole had forbidden any such revelation under the threat of Roxanna being expelled from the research center. Moreover, the sight of Nicole's suffering weighed heavily on her heart.

"I’m fine. Just bring me to Colton and make sure no one disturbs us." Nicole's voice carried determination as she brushed off Roxanna's concern, her urgency apparent.

With a resigned nod, Roxanna led the way, her mind heavy with worry. Earlier, she had asked Chloe about Nicole's situation, learning that there seemed to be no solution beyond waiting for an inevitable outcome.

"Nicky," Colton exclaimed as he spotted Nicole's silhouette in the distance. Rising from his seat excitedly, he continued, "I was worried when you didn't respond to my message yesterday, but seeing you well today is a relief." He had learned the previous night that she had gone to the cafe and was concerned for her safety, but he was put at ease by her rosy complexion today.

"No worries. I’m alright." Nicole nodded as she took a seat across from Colton. However, her demeanor lacked the usual intimacy they shared.

Perplexed, he questioned, "What's the matter, Nicky? Aren't you supposed to be sitting next to me?" Such a situation had never arisen since they started their relationship. Despite her composed appearance, an unsettling feeling churned within him. Yet, he couldn't pinpoint the source of his unease.
