Chapter 887
Hayden didn't get to the bottom of this either. After pondering for a moment, he suggested, "Let's go to the zoo."
"Okay," Colton replied, a fond smile tugging at the corners of his lips.
Hayden's face reddened slightly after he finished his sentence. Looking up at the man with watery eyes, he asked in
a whisper, "Dad, I want to take a pee. Where is the restroom in your office?"
Seeing his burning cheeks, Colton let out a laugh and picked up the boy in his arms. He stood up, saying, "I'll take
you there." Before leaving the room, he darted a look at the two other people in the room, saying meaningfully,
"You two have a nice chat."
After leaving the room, Hayden obediently clung to Colton's chest, asking, "Is my mom really the Wrenn Family's
daughter?" He had never doubted Nicole's identity before, so he had never looked into it. He only insisted on

dragging Nicole along today because Colton had called him yesterday and explained everything to him.
"Uh-huh. The results of the DNA paternity test have come out, and your mom and Siobhan are confirmed to be
mother and daughter," Colton replied.
Gabriel hadn't agreed to do the DNA paternity test previously. As time went on, however, he eventually gave in and
got his hands on Siobhan's hair sample. The answer was then confirmed via an urgent DNA paternity test.
"Doesn't that make me a grandson of the Wrenn Family, then?" Hayden asked curiously.
Colton's deep and husky voice was dripping with fondness. "Not only are you a grandson of the Wrenn Family, but
you're also a descendant of both the Goulds and the Gardners." He was very satisfied with this son of his. Hayden
displayed outstanding intelligence at an early age and could understand almost everything instantly, which made
him a suitable successor.
"I'll be the apple of everyone's eye, then," Hayden replied with a smile.
Colton gently poked the boy's nose with his finger. He said, "You'll always be the apple of my eye."

After the man and the boy had left, Gabriel and Nicole were the only ones left in the big room.
Nicole and Gabriel weren't close as they had only met twice before. Still, if what Ms. Betty said is true, then the
person before me will be my full brother. At the thought of this, she couldn't help but look up at him.
Gabriel happened to turn his gaze toward her as well. The instant their eyes met, Nicole looked away in
embarrassment.
Taking the opportunity, Gabriel asked, "How have you been over the last few years?"
Such a familiar opening question was very much like a greeting from the elders at a family reunion during the mid-
winter holiday. Hearing the man's voice, Nicole raised her head slightly and moved her lips, saying, "I've been doing
fine."
Gabriel fell silent for a moment. Then, he said, "I've heard that your parents divorced when you were little, after

which you suffered a lot while living with your mother."
A hint of melancholy flitted across Nicole's face at the mention of her childhood. Indeed, she had suffered a lot
during those days. Madeline wasn't capable of doing any work due to the rich and comfortable life she had been
used to. However, after being divorced by William without a penny left to her name, she had no choice but to work
in order to support Nicole.
Nicole remembered how she had often starved intermittently at the time, and such an experience forced her to
grow up quickly. After Madeline finally got used to working, she started going to school. After that, however,
Madeline fell seriously ill…
A hint of sorrow flickered across Nicole's eyes, but she didn't talk about these events. She only replied indifferently,
"It's fine. Everything's in the past now. All that matters is that I'm doing fine at the moment."
Gabriel's heart twinged all of a sudden when he saw how indifferent Nicole looked. If it weren't for Madeline's
selfishness, my sister wouldn't have suffered such misery back then. His lips parted, but he didn't know what to say.
Seeing how the man hesitated to speak, Nicole let out a chuckle, saying, "Mr. Wrenn, just tell me if there's
something you'd like to talk to me about." She surmised it was probably for Evelyn. After all, she had a son with
Colton, which was undoubtedly a threat to the marriage between Colton and Evelyn.
