Chapter 867

Nicole wasn't expecting Evelyn to call and invite her to dinner.

However, Nicole quickly declined since anyone with common sense would sense that it was a trap.

"I apologize, Miss Wrenn. I've been quite busy recently, so I'm afraid I won't be able to join you for dinner," Nicole

stated courteously but distantly.

"I trust that no matter how busy you are, you will not disregard your son," Evelyn replied softly and chuckled.

Evelyn's sloppy words tickled Nicole. So, she clenched her phone and said hoarsely, "Evelyn, what do you mean?"

Evelyn smiled provocatively and said, "Nothing much. Well, Hayden is Colton's son. Colton has custody rights as

well. You see, I'm fine with Hayden staying with Colton. So, take a guess what will happen."

Nicole took a big breath when she heard that. She never thought Evelyn would have that idea.

Her fists were clenched, and her throat sounded hoarse as if something was stopping it. "Tell me what you want,"

Nicole said after a while.

"So, I'll see you alone at the Town Central Hotel at lunchtime today. It's my treat. What do you think?"

There was frivolity in Evelyn's words.

Nicole bit her lower lip and lowered her gaze before gritting her teeth and responding, "All right."

Nicole would never be careless with Hayden. One had to admit Evelyn was shrewd to know Nicole's worst fear.

Evelyn managed to poke at Nicole's sore spot.

Nicole rushed to the Town Central Hotel, which Evelyn had indicated where their meeting place would be.

Upon entering a nearly vacant room, Nicole found that there was only Evelyn alone inside. The table was piled high

with dishes. The food was rich and fragrant.

However, Nicole had no appetite. She gazed at Evelyn, who was already seated.

Evelyn had applied makeup to hide her current expression. She leaned back in her chair with her arms folded. At

Nicole's arrival, Evelyn gestured to the seat opposite her, saying, "Miss Anderson, please have a seat. I ordered

several of their signature meals. Try them out."

Nicole took a seat. Then, she grunted and looked Evelyn in the eyes with dark eyes before gently stating, "Let us not

beat around the bush. Be honest with me about why you invited me here."

Evelyn's lips curled into a smile as she delicately tapped the table with her fingers. Then, she lifted her chin and

said, "I'm sure you're aware I'll marry Colton in two weeks. We're also about to acquire our marriage certificate."

Nicole's eyes sank as an unfathomable sourness flashed across her face. However, she neatly concealed it.

She grunted and inquired, "Yes. What exactly do you want to say?"

"I know you're the chief designer at F&M Apparel and have been certified by an authority. I'd like you to design an

evening gown for my engagement," Evelyn firmly stated as she glanced at Nicole with sarcasm in her languid eyes.

Nicole kept a straight face and tried not to betray any emotion. She stated, "I apologize, Miss Wrenn. I'm too busy

and don't have the time. Please employ someone else."

Nicole planned to stand up and leave after she finished speaking. However, Evelyn pounded the table and shouted

angrily, "Nicole Anderson, if you don't assist me with the design, I'll have Colton compete for Hayden's custody. Do

you stand a chance against the Gardners, the Wrenns, and the Goulds?"

Nicole froze and came to a halt. She clenched her teeth and fixed her fierce gaze on Evelyn. "You are truly

shameless, Miss Wrenn!" she shouted back.
