Chapter 1288 Ambition

Ryan hung up without saying a word, and his face was as dark as a thundercloud. Even pedestrians passing by

could sense his rage, and they scurried off, leaving him alone. Clutching his phone tightly, his bloodshot eyes gave

him a wild, almost demented appearance. "Evelyn…" he seethed, infuriated that someone like Evelyn could dare to

threaten him.

Suddenly, Nicole's name echoed in his mind, a bitter reminder. He recalled when "that person" intervened to save

her from impending death. She's lucky. I can't believe "that person" wants to protect her. Still, it doesn't matter.

Once I take over the Gardners, "that person" would show up, and I will also take him down. Soon, everything will be

mine. It's not a big deal when Nicole's fate was only temporarily postponed. At this thought, Ryan's foul mood

dissipated, replaced by a confident spring in his step as he hastily left the hospital. A promising future lay ahead,

and no one could stand in his way.

Meanwhile, the upcoming event at the research center was a festive occasion, with employees adorning the venue

splendidly. Even Nicole was made to buy some lovely dresses in the nearest mall. Since she was the head of this

center, she couldn't afford to appear in cheap attire at the event.

With Roxanna occupied by rehearsals, Chloe assumed the role of outfit coordinator for Nicole that night.

In the meantime, Nicole glanced down at her arm, where Chloe's arm was linked with hers. A warm smile spread

across her face in response to Chloe's gesture. In a light-hearted tone, she quickly explained, "I have a ton of

clothes in my closet. They're new, so I don't have to buy anything." This was the reason she had been reluctant to

join Chloe outside.

"No. You're getting a hot dress today. How are you supposed to face everyone otherwise?" Chloe's animated

demeanor was a pleasant departure from her usual self. As she spoke, she tightened her grip on Nicole's arm,

afraid she might suddenly slip away. I'll be in trouble if that happens, she thought to herself.

"Is this necessary?" Nicole felt lighthearted, relishing the opportunity to tease her. Seeing Chloe this animated was a

rarity, so she seized the chance to play around.

"Of course. We must let the other employee know that we're rich," Chloe asserted confidently as she pinched

Nicole's face.

Nicole might be Chloe's boss, but they were good friends. Only Chloe could address her by her first name; others

were confined to "Miss Anderson." Although Nicole wasn't fond of formality, rules were necessary to maintain order.

If they had no rules, the place would've been in shambles.

Amused, Nicole stifled her laughter as Chloe realized she was being teased, and she delivered a light swat to

Nicole's backside—avoiding other sensitive areas. Nevertheless, Nicole's current mischief didn't obscure that she

was two months pregnant.

Then, Chloe's gaze softened as she affectionately caressed Nicole's belly. "Almost three months."

The research center's employees adored children, but the prospect of childbirth daunted Chloe. The courage it took

to endure labor was beyond her. Thus, she respected Nicole, who willingly embraced the painful process, all for a

man's sake. Indeed, that was for Colton—a decent man if he didn't have a child with Evelyn.

Meanwhile, her mind seemed to drift as she caressed Nicole's belly. Noticing Chloe's distraction, Nicole suppressed

her laughter. "Someone's spacing out."

After hearing this, Chloe snapped back and shook her head. "I wasn't. Now pick whatever you like, Nicole. We'll buy

everything."
