Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 1294

Chapter 1294 Going Overseas

Chloe led Nicole to Albert. She had something important to say to him. Nicole nodded at Albert and sat with him. "Hey, Mr. Lloyd."

Albert looked at Nicole, delighted. He loved this young lady, and he kept piling her plate with food. "Dig in. God, you've lost so much weight." He was worried about her. She was gaunt, and yet she was pregnant. Her body needed nourishment, if not for her, then for the child.

"Alright, I will. I'll fatten myself up." Nicole played along and speared her steak, then she dug in. She should treat her loved ones better. Not to mention she was weak, and she was carrying a child. She must take good care of her body.

Albert nodded in approval. That's more like it.

Chloe and Roxanna exchanged a smile. Life was looking up for them. They had dinner together and chatted happily.

As everyone was finishing up their dinner, Nicole slowly put her cutlery down and patted her belly gently. "I've considered your suggestion, Mr. Lloyd."

Albert's eyes shone, and he quickly put his cutlery down too, then he looked at Nicole. "So, have you made up your mind? Been keeping me waiting long enough."

He couldn't wait to hear her answer. If she would go with him, he would do everything he could to help her, but if she refused, he would respect her decision. Everyone had their own pursuits, after all.

Nicole smiled and earnestly said, "I'm going with you."

Chloe and Roxanna were reluctant to see her go. Nicole had been with them for the longest time, and her going overseas all of a sudden would leave a hole in their hearts. Still, they were happy for Nicole. That meant she'd gotten over her pain and finally decided to venture overseas. To make the base better.

Albert's pupils dilated, and he looked at Nicole in delight. He thought Nicole would refuse it, and he'd braced himself for impact. This is surprising. "Leave everything to me, Nicole. Don't worry about it."

He thumped his chest as hard as possible to prove that he could still work.

She quickly stopped him. Albert might look healthy, but at his age, he shouldn't be straining himself. "I don't want to rely on you all the time, Mr. Lloyd. I'm striking out on my own."

"What?" Albert didn't think Nicole would say that. Anyone else would've worked with Albert. He was a luminary of the medical field, and anyone could gain success if they set up shop with him as a backer.

"You heard me right. I have to work hard if I want to really grow. Relying on you all the time only causes overdependence." Nicole nodded. That was her real thought. She couldn't keep relying on someone else all the time.

Chloe looked at Nicole, worried. She couldn't feel at ease knowing Nicole would be rushing in alone. A frown furrowed Chloe's brow, and she voiced her opinion. "It's dangerous out there. What if something happens to you?"

Refusing to change her decision, Nicole said, "I'm still doing this alone." If she wished to protect the people back home, she must grow as a person.

"Mr. Lloyd." Chloe looked to Albert for help, seeing that she couldn't convince Nicole.

Unexpectedly, Albert stood up and praised Nicole. "I can see why White took a liking to you. Very well. I respect your decision."
