Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28 Where’s Your Respect?

Hearing her child’s sobbing, Nicole felt devastated as if a thousand needles were pricking her heart. She tenderly patted him and waited for him to calm down before asking, “Where did you go, Hayden? You got Mom so worried!”

Hayden lifted his head from Nicole’s arms and revealed his sorry eyes, muttering, “A bunch of bad guys barged into our house and carried me away. They brought me to the sea. And my face hurts from the wind blowing.”

At once, Nicole hugged her child’s head as her heart thumped. The sea… As she was comforting her son, she raised her head to look at the remaining three on the couch. She pulled a freezing, straight face as she glared at the three, coldly interrogating, “Why is Hayden here?!” She squinted her eyes. I was right after all. It was all their doing!

“Don’t be so angry, Nicole. Hayden’s my grandson. There’s no way I would hurt him, right?”

At that moment, Lydia stood up with a gratifying look and walked over to caress Hayden.

Nevertheless, Nicole took a step backward and evaded her hand. Standing still, she swept her gaze across the Andersons. “You said you knew nothing of his whereabouts, so why is he here?!”

Queenie looked up, disdain and resentment evident on her face. If it weren’t for William’s persistent hindrance, the little rascal would have drowned in the waters by now. “No matter whose child he is, he is still Dad’s grandson. What’s wrong with Dad wanting to see him?” she questioned, her voice hostile.

Hearing that, Nicole lowered her head and looked down at Queenie, revealing a belittling smile. “What you did was abduction!” Her eyes were evidently red, and having spent the night without slumbering left her extremely energyless. Nonetheless, now that her son was right in her arms, she couldn’t be more relieved by the vivid sensation.

“Don’t be mad, Nicole. We’re family, right? Come, sit down, and we can have a nice chat,” Lydia, standing at the side, suggested.

Disgusted by their pretense, Nicole intensely leered at them. She would never forgive the people behind her son’s abduction. “Be prepared to get sued. Imprisonment is coming for all of you.”
