Chapter 1475 A Hasty Departure

"It's alright. Aside from a slight inconvenience in movement, nothing else is troubling me at the moment. Even my

morning sickness has significantly subsided." Nicole could not help but smile at Wendy's earnest concern, offering

her gentle reassurance.

She recognized Wendy's genuine care for her and had to acknowledge that her upbringing had been

commendable. Whether it was her etiquette or principles, everything about her was admirable. Despite her

vivacious and endearing nature, she was well aware of her limits.

Wendy glanced at the tablet, noting that all the items listed were her favorites. She felt a lump forming in her

throat. Indeed, Nicole cherished her dearly. "You've ordered all my favorite food! I appreciate you so much, Nicole."

Wendy sniffled, doing her best to hold back her tears. She did not want to embarrass herself by crying.

"Alright, see if there's anything else you'd like to eat." Nicole noticed Wendy's emotional state, as if she was on the

verge of tears, and quickly distracted her.

Her only intention was to make Wendy happier. Despite her divorce from Colton, Wendy still treated her like family.

Since she saw her as her sister-in-law, she felt obliged to live up to the title.

Wendy nodded enthusiastically, remembering all the kindness Nicole had shown her. She then ordered some dishes

she thought Nicole would enjoy and handed the tablet back to the waiter.

As Wendy's figure gradually faded from his view, Beryl gave a resigned smile. She has places to go, but look at

where I am now. Not back there, certainly. If Colton discovered his presence, Wendy's secret would be revealed.

Then, she would undoubtedly be unforgiving of him.

He decided to take a stroll nearby, which seemed to be the only viable option.

"Beryl, why are you here?" Colton, who had just arrived from outside, noticed him walking alone.

Recognizing the voice, Beryl knew who it was. He closed his eyes, his face reflecting his frustration, but he managed

to feign calmness. "What a coincidence! What brings you here?"

Colton was usually a homebody. What could have prompted him to venture out today? Was it something to do with

Nicole?

"Um, where's Wendy? Aren't you two usually together?" Colton scanned the surroundings but did not spot Wendy.

Oh, no.

"Um, she went to the restroom. She'll be back shortly. What's up?" Beryl responded with a practiced smile, hoping

Colton would let him be. That way, he would not be betraying Wendy.

"Oh, it's alright. Tell her to join us. We're having dinner together. I'll send you the location." Colton shook his head,

turned to leave, and left Beryl with a parting remark. "You two should come together."

Watching Colton depart, Beryl finally exhaled in relief but did not completely let his guard down. He quickly took out

his phone and sent a message to Wendy.

Who could have anticipated that Colton would suddenly propose a dinner outing? It was completely unexpected.

Meanwhile, she was enjoying her time with Nicole, their conversation filled with laughter. When her phone buzzed,

she checked it and was instantly taken aback. Why did they suddenly plan a dinner together? What's wrong with my

brother?

Nicole, sensing her unease, put down her cutlery and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did something bad

happen?" She instinctively thought that something might have happened to Colton, judging by her expression.

Otherwise, she would not look so distressed.

"It's over, it's over, Nicole. I might only be able to eat this much today." Wendy looked terrified, shaking her head

and indicating her readiness to leave.

"What's wrong? Tell me." Nicole saw Wendy's haste and became increasingly convinced that something unfavorable

might have happened to Colton. She had to find out; she could not let him face it alone!

"Well, I sneaked out today without my brother's knowledge, but…"
