Chapter 441 Care
Colton didn’t seem angry after hearing Nicole’s words. “That’s not true. You’re the only one I’m interested in. You’re
the only one I want to kiss,” he replied. Nicole didn’t know what to say—she simply took a step back before wiping
her lips with a disdainful look on her face. “It’s my honor, I guess,” she uttered in an unenthusiastic tone.
“If that made you feel honored, I wouldn’t mind kissing you again,” he said. He was the definition of cocky, and
Nicole was rendered speechless by his shameless words once more.
She looked him in the eye. “You shouldn’t be interested in me, President Gardner. I’m a mother of a child.
Furthermore, with your status, family background, and good looks, there are probably tons of women lining up for

you.”
Colton didn’t seem shy after hearing Nicole’s compliments. Instead, he gave her a lazy gaze. “Are you one of those
women in line?”
“No,” she replied firmly. A hint of disappointment surfaced in Colton’s eyes when he heard how she rejected him
without hesitation. “That’s a shame,” he muttered.
Nicole didn’t have the patience to talk to him for long, so she distanced herself as she bid him goodbye. “Well, if
that’s all, then I’ll head off now, President Colton.” She turned and left immediately after that—she didn’t want to
give Colton a chance to stop her.
However, when she stepped out of the door, she heard his voice coming from behind her. “I realized that I really
like you, Nicole. Since Hayden’s our child, do you want to consider being with me?” he asked. But Nicole simply
acted as if she couldn’t hear him and merely hastened her footsteps. When Colton saw the way Nicole hurried off,
he simply spread his lips into a faint smile. It’s fine. We have all the time in the world.
Nicole heaved a sigh of relief after she left Colton’s house. Phew. I can’t believe I visited him only to have to make a
fool out of myself! My limbs feel weak whenever I think about what happened just now.
Nevertheless, Nicole was more concerned about Julia’s situation right then. The Zuniga Family was in the way of

Julia and Richard’s relationship, so it wouldn’t matter even if Julia and Richard were in love with one another.

After some contemplation, Nicole finally decided to go to Julia’s house. Julia was sitting on the couch with a packet
of snacks in her hands. She munched on the snacks while watching TV, and looked extremely comfortable. Nicole
entered the house with bags of vegetables; that was because Nicole had the experience of being a pregnant
woman, and she knew the right food to get for Julia.
When Julia saw Nicole entering, she lowered her snacks and wiped her lips. The corners of her lips were covered
with crumbs. “Hey, Nicole. I’m so tired after sitting around for so long, but I don’t feel like going out on my own,”

Julia complained while stretching her limbs.
When Nicole saw the lazy look on the other woman’s face, she couldn’t help but chuckle. Nicole started tidying the
room and throwing the trash into the bin as she spoke.
“You should move around more since you’re pregnant, Julia. You’re a doctor, so you should know better. Your child
will not benefit from all these snacks you’re eating.”
Julia lowered her gaze as a somewhat dejected look surfaced in her eyes. She took a while to gather her emotions
before speaking. “I don’t know how to cook—you know that.
I don’t have a choice but to eat these things.” In the past, when Richard was still with her, he would be the one who
cooked. She wasn’t used to living alone.
Nicole couldn’t help but let out a sigh at the sight of how messy Julia’s living conditions were. “How about this, Julia?
You can stay at my place, and it’ll be easier for me to take care of you,” Nicole suggested in the end.
Julia shook her head. “No. It’s going to be a hassle for you.” Nicole was about to respond when Julia continued
speaking. “I can’t allow the Jenkins or the Gardners to see me like this, Nicole. If they see me, they’ll figure out
what’s going on. So, it’s best for me to stay in a place where they can’t find me.”
