Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154 The Hospital Visit

Colton’s keen concern on this matter was out of Nicole’s expectation. In the afternoon, Colton actually came to her office directly.

Upon seeing Colton entering her office, Nicole felt a little surprised. Her first reaction was wondering whether there was something wrong with her design drafts.

“I’m here to inform you about Daniella,” Colton said slowly. He took a few steps forward and plopped himself on the sofa.

At once, Nicole stopped working, knowing fully the reason as to why Colton came to see her. She did not know whether to cry or laugh.

“I’ve seen the news. She intends on using public opinion regarding her suicide to suppress me,” Nicole murmured in a low voice.

Upon hearing that, Colton nodded. As he observed Nicole’s calm appearance, he knew she must have a plan concocted. So, he asked directly, “Then, what’s your plan?”

Tugging the corners of her mouth into a smile, Nicole replied to him by saying, “She can do as she pleases. But, I will stand firm and not withdraw the lawsuit.”

Colton looked at Nicole’s determined appearance with a flash of respect and admiration in his eyes. Truth be told, he thought Nicole would buckle in pretty easily because of Daniella’s suicide. However, he did not expect the very woman in front of him to behave quite stubbornly.

“Well, then you’d have to prepare yourself mentally. And if you continue to press charges, it will certainly attract more public opinion, which might not necessarily be positive.”

Upon hearing that, Nicole nodded. “I’m aware of it. But, if I choose to not pursue this matter, people across the world will continue to think that the Chief Designer of F&M Apparel is an easy target that can be bullied and manipulated.”

Not only does the lawsuit concern myself, but it’s also for the reputation of F&M Apparel. If I don’t persist in pursuing this matter, the reputation of F&M Apparel will lose its lustre.

“I have already requested the Public Relations Department to help keep a lid on this issue. So, what do you wish to do next?” Colton inquired.

“Head to the hospital, and see how much longer she can keep up with the act,” Nicole sneered. If she’s truly acting, it’ll definitely show.

A hint of tantalization flashed in Colton’s dark eyes, and he stood up. “Seeing as I’m free from any duties in the afternoon, how about we visit her together?”

“Sure.”
