Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 53

Chapter 53 Paternity Confirmed

Colton couldn’t help but frown slightly as he looked at the person before him. He had heard during the mid-winter holiday that Joseph had accosted Nicole at her mother’s grave. Even though he didn’t know what the two had talked about in the hotel after that, Nicole’s face was pale when she left the hotel, which was why he had said those words at the dining table just now. “What are you doing at Gardner Corporation?” He stepped forward slightly and happened to stand in front of Nicole.

Joseph was somewhat afraid deep down when he saw Colton, for he didn’t expect Nicole to be with him. Feigning composure at once, he said respectfully with a smile, “What a coincidence, President Gardner! I’m here to talk to Miss Anderson.”

“She’s not available,” Colton refused bluntly. His tall figure exuded a terrifyingly chilly aura even when he was merely standing there doing nothing.

Seeing how Colton turned him down so quickly, Joseph looked slightly embarrassed. However, he came well-prepared this time. Turning his gaze to Nicole, he produced a report in his hand, saying, “Miss Anderson, I’ve got a report in my hand, which I obtained after meeting you last time. I think you’d like to take a look at it too.”

The air turned heavy all of a sudden, and Nicole’s heart shuddered involuntarily when her gaze fell upon the report Joseph was holding. She pursed her lips as her hands clenched into fists by her sides.

Seeing Nicole’s ghastly expression, Colton frowned slightly and asked with concern, “Nicole, are you alright?”

Luckily, Nicole had applied makeup before leaving home today. Even if she looked pale at the moment, no one could notice it. In an attempt to make her voice sound steadier, she lowered her voice, saying, “It’s okay, President Gardner. It’s about something private between him and me. Let me deal with it first.”
