Chapter 1258 He Will Not Divorce Her

Colton walked out of the research center in a daze, with Evelyn clinging to him like a persistent shadow.

"Colton, I've heard about what happened between you and Nicole. This seems to be the only outcome since she

cannot accept me," she remarked, noticing his distracted emotions. This deepened her jealousy of Nicole, as she

couldn't fathom what made Nicole so exceptional that she deserved his love despite her hurtful words.

Earlier, she had surreptitiously eavesdropped near the window while the couple conversed. Her position was

carefully chosen to remain hidden from Roxanna's view. When she overheard Nicole asking Roxanna to find her,

Evelyn managed to slip back to her room. Consequently, she had no knowledge of the subsequent conversation.

"Colton?" Evelyn called out tentatively after realizing Colton's reluctance to engage with her.

As the man was immersed in his thoughts, he felt increasingly annoyed by her voice. "I'll have someone send you

back later. Just focus on taking care of yourself during your pregnancy." His cold gaze briefly flickered toward her

before he abruptly turned and walked away, disappearing from her sight.

After hearing this, Evelyn stood there, bewildered. Why? Why didn't he spare me a glance even after Nicole told

him she didn't want him anymore? "Nicole, since you're on the brink of death, I won't grant you peace even in your

demise!" Her eyes flared with venomous anger, her words dripping with bitterness.

"Mr. Gardner, Miss Anderson asked me to come and discuss the divorce matter with you. Here's the divorce

agreement." A seemingly familiar lawyer approached Colton as if deliberately awaiting his arrival.

Colton cast a fleeting glance at the lawyer. He recognized him as Nicole's dedicated attorney, handling all her legal

affairs.

"Do you know why she wants to leave me?"

Colton's question momentarily caught the lawyer off guard. Suddenly, the lawyer found himself at a loss for words.

He handled her legal affairs but wasn't privy to the specifics of this situation. "Mr. Gardner, you might be putting me

in a difficult position here. As for the exact reason behind this, it would be better for you to ask Miss Anderson

herself." An awkward smile tugged at the corners of the lawyer's lips.

After hearing this, Colton silently accepted the divorce agreement from the lawyer and began to study it intently.

The lawyer breathed a sigh of relief at Colton's response. This was standard procedure, and the lawyer's

involvement had been an anomaly.

Suddenly, Colton's expression darkened as a deep-seated frustration rose within him. The tightness in his chest and

his shortness of breath intensified his anger. "I won't divorce her. Convey that to her," he snapped as he tossed the

divorce agreement back at the lawyer. Then, he stormed off before the lawyer could respond.

The lawyer was puzzled at Colton's dissatisfaction while holding the divorce agreement. He was clueless about what

might have triggered this reaction. Miss Anderson has left the marriage with nothing but a research center;

everything else is given to him. So, what could have possibly dissatisfied him?

Despite his confusion, the lawyer relayed the truth to Nicole.

While listening quietly to the lawyer's words over the phone, Nicole responded weakly, "I understand. I will take care

of it. Thank you for your assistance. Please inform him to come to the research center again tomorrow if he's

unwilling to sign the divorce agreement." A few more words were exchanged on the other end before she ended

the call.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Nicole, I'm coming in." Chloe's voice accompanied the knock, resonating in the room.

"Nicole, it's time for your medication," she said as she walked in while holding a bowl containing a strongly-scented

tonic. A pang of sorrow washed over her as she observed Nicole's noticeably paler complexion, yet she masked her

emotions, maintaining a faint smile.

With a slight nod, Nicole gazed at her and spoke calmly, "Please prepare another bowl for me."

"What?" Chloe's disbelief creased her brow. "Nicole, you can't have that medicine anymore!" She knew what Nicole

meant when she said another bowl. Hence, she couldn't allow Nicole to persist; doing so might mean Nicole

wouldn't make it through another week.
