Chapter 1179 Divorce
Nicole smiled bitterly. As she expected, this was something that Evelyn would do.
She nodded and said, "All right, I understand. Tell Evelyn and Colton to return to the Gould Residence. I'm on my
way."
Siobhan was unable to wrap her head around Nicole's calm tone. The two of them had been glued to the hip in the
past, so how did things end up like this all of a sudden? Not only did Colton wish to get a divorce from Nicole, but he
was even planning to marry Evelyn.
Although Evelyn was not Siobhan's biological daughter, she had raised her since she was a child, and thus she still
held affection for her. However, Evelyn's behavior that constantly stepped out of line disappointed her.
"Nicole, tell me the truth. What exactly happened between you and Colton?" she asked somberly.

However, Nicole wasn't quite sure how she was supposed to explain things. After giving it a moment of thought, she
only replied, "It's nothing, we just had a small fight. It'll be fine after we talk things out face-to-face."
Seeing that Nicole refused to answer, Siobhan let out a sigh, deciding not to press her any further.
"All right. In that case, you can come back here, and I'll tell Evelyn to bring Colton over so that the two of you can
clear the air in person."
Nicole murmured in assent before hanging up the call.
What a good time for them to show up. Now I can just go back without having to look for them.
After regaining composure, Nicole began to pack her things so that she could leave immediately. She then phoned
Nathan to let him know of the situation, and although he was taken aback, he did not ask any questions and only
reminded her to be careful.
As the Gould Family dabbled in transportation, it made things much easier for Nicole. Siobhan had prepared a plane
for her, so all she needed to do was make her way to the airport and board the plane.

On the other hand, Evelyn headed back to Gould Residence with Colton. Her face was piled with a large smile, and
upon seeing Siobhan, she called out to her sweetly, "Mom."
As Siobhan looked at the two in front of her, a trace of doubt flashed past her eyes. Colton was holding onto
Evelyn's hand, and the two were huddled together affectionately. When she heard that Colton was asking for a
divorce with Nicole so he could marry Evelyn instead, she had assumed that it was only a joke, but from the looks of
things now, it seemed that they were telling the truth.
Siobhan's eyes darkened and burned with anger as she looked at Colton, asking in a severe tone, "Colton, are you
aware of what you're doing right now?"
However, Colton was completely incapable of responding. His gaze was vacant as he looked at Siobhan, completely
devoid of light.

Sensing that something was amiss, Siobhan furrowed her brow. Just as she was about to step forward to have a
closer look, she was stopped by Evelyn.
Evelyn stepped in front of Siobhan and said with a smile, "Mom, everyone is free to date whomever they want now.
Colton only realized that he doesn't like Nicole after marrying her. You can't just force him, right?"
Siobhan flushed red with fury at Evelyn's words. Clenching her hands into fists, she said bitingly, "Evelyn, do you
know what you're saying?"
Evelyn nodded and replied, "I know. Mom, I'm your daughter too. Weren't you overjoyed when Nicole and Colton
got married? Why are you so against it now that Colton is getting together with me? Is it because I'm not your
biological daughter?"
Siobhan trembled with anger in the face of Evelyn's interrogation, and she gritted out furiously, "Evelyn! Don't you
know how I feel about you? If you hadn't done something so outrageous, do you think I'd say these things to you?"
However, Evelyn only took Siobhan's words as an excuse. Losing all sense and reason, she reached out and clung
onto Colton, saying, "Mom, Colton wants to be with me now. If you're really doing this for my own good, you should
just acknowledge it. When Nicole comes over, tell her to get that divorce and allow Colton and me to get married!"
