Chapter 273 Understand
Colton looked at Nicole’s hesitation as he nodded and said, “Nicky, I don’t mean to force you. However, my mom
has announced the news. The Gardner Family will still recognize Hayden even if my aunt stops you. We can’t afford
to lose our reputation.”
Nicole balled her hands into fists. She understood this and it was inevitable.
However, she felt a faint pain in her heart.
It seems to be out of the question.
“I… Let’s leave it at that, President Gardner, I will leave now.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe atmosphere was terrifyingly depressing, and Nicole needed to calm down.
Colton suddenly stood up and walked over to her. His tall figure cast a shadow on her body. Although Colton didn’t
say or do anything, Nicole still felt a rush of invisible pressure.
“Nicky, you can’t keep running forever.”
Nicole stepped back and distanced herself from Colton. Her eyes were red. As she stubbornly looked at Colton and
said, “President Gardner, I carried Hayden to term and gave birth to him, and I raised him alone. I can’t give him to
anyone, not even his biological father.”
Colton looked at Nicole. Truth was, he knew that he failed as a father.
“I will distract my mother for you. You must figure it out for yourself. You can call me if you need me.”
Colton looked meaningfully at Nicole before he turned around and kept quiet.
Nicole looked at Colton’s back. Honestly, she didn’t expect the man to compromise. Pursing her lips, she left without
saying anything.
She walked outside and breathed in deeply, finally releasing troubled breaths.
Nicole scanned her surroundings, but she did not know where to go.
When she returned home, Whitney shouted, “Miss Nicole, I found the recording!”
Nicole was stunned. She knew the man was Colton, but she still hoped it wasn’t.
Her steps were heavy and it seemed to slow down her movement.
She walked to Whitney, and her eyes fell on the laptop.
“The footage on the stairs has been deleted, but I can find the footage in the elevator that night,” Whitney
explained. “Only four people were going back and forth. You, Queenie, an unknown man, and Colton.”
Nicole looked at the screen. At first, it showed a man carrying Colton out. Soon, that man returned to the elevator.
Then, Queenie and Nicole appeared.
Looking at herself running away in the recording, Nicole could still remember that feeling despite the figure in the
recording being blurry.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe third part of the recording was the following day, when Queenie stood beside Colton.
After Nicole watched the recording, she was sure the man from five years ago was Colton Gardner.
Nicole didn’t know why Queenie lied to her that the man was Joseph. Perhaps Queenie was afraid Nicole would
return and rob her share of glory and wealth.
For the past five years, Nicole has always thought the child’s father was Joseph. However, she never thought it was
all Queenie’s trap!
“Miss Nicole, there’s one more thing. This happened after a week when Colton announced Queenie as his fiancée.”
Whitney showed Nicole the news announced by Colton back then.
Nicole looked at the time posted. After sorting it out, she understood everything. Back then, Queenie tricked Nicole
into sleeping with Joseph. However, the man on the bed was Colton. In the end, Queenie took Nicole’s place and
became the glorious Young-Madam-Gardner-to-be for five years!
