Anemia
Colton walked further into Nicole’s office, and only spoke in a low voice after he looked up at her. “My
mother saw your son and Joseph’s DNA paternity test.”
Nicole was stunned for a second, but she quickly snapped back to reality when she recalled how the
test result was still with Colton from the time he helped her switch out the result.
Thinking that she would never accept Joseph as the father of her child, Nicole had chosen not to take a
look at the result then.
Her face was pale as her eyes darted around, and she somehow began to panic. “What is the test
result?” she asked carefully.
The corners of Colton’s lips fell and in a hoarse voice, he revealed, “They are blood-related.”
He didn’t know what was wrong with him. He was the one who didn’t bother to read the report when he
got it, but he was now also the one who was inexplicably angry when he found out the result.
Upon hearing his confirmation, Nicole felt her heart skip a beat as she clenched her hands tightly. Even
her gaze began to dim. She didn’t think the person from five years ago really was Joseph!
She slowly closed her eyes when she felt the lump in her throat. She knew Joseph. She was sure that
he would definitely come and take Hayden away from her if he were to find out that the boy was his
biological son.
Joseph, who led a life of debauchery, had more women outside than one could count. On top of that,
he was someone who used underhanded tactics to spread his evil everywhere. He would never do
anything earnestly.
She couldn’t even begin to imagine how Hayden’s future would turn out if she were to let a man like
Joseph be the boy’s father.
There was no way she would allow that to happen!
Looking at Colton, Nicole asked in a small voice, “What about Mrs. Gardner?”
“Mom still doesn’t know the truth.” He shook his head. “She thinks that Hayden is my child.”
Nicole let out a wry laugh at that. Now that he had helped her hide it, she feared that the peaceful days
at the Gardner Residence were no more.
Both of them had denied that Hayden was Colton’s son before, but now Anna had found out the truth.
Colton had also told a lie in order to not let Hayden’s true identity be known.
The Gardners might not believe it at all if she were to not properly explain it to them.
“Thank you, President Gardner, but I will have to give a clear explanation so that Mrs. Gardner doesn’t
misunderstand,” Nicole said, her face pale.
Colton nodded at that. Although his mother had promised him she wouldn’t mention it, he knew she
wouldn’t stop pestering him about it if she didn’t get an explanation.
“Let’s make time someday. I will have the doctor come to the Gardner Residence and personally do a
paternity test in front of my parents. That will prove your innocence as well,” he suggested.
Nicole nodded in response. This seemed to be the only way they could go about this for now.
She couldn’t help feeling touched, seeing him go to such lengths just to help her.
All of a sudden, her vision started turning black. She was about to walk back to her seat when her legs
unexpectedly went numb from standing too long that her body seemed to melt into a puddle as she
took her first step.
The moment she fell backward, Colton quickly stepped forward, catching her right against his chest just
in time.
The man’s broad chest emitted faint warmth that somehow felt like it was burning the back of her torso.
Feeling like the posture was too intimate for her, Nicole quickly tried to get up, only for her to helplessly
fall against him again as her strength still hadn’t returned to her body.
Colton now had both his hands wrapped around her waist to stabilize her. His thin lips, too, seemed to
inadvertently brush against her earlobe before his gravelly and magnetic voice rang out.
“Are you alright?” he murmured.
She felt electrified all over her body and his voice seemed to flow directly into her heart. She hurriedly
shook her head and blabbered, “I am fine. It is probably my anemia.”
Her health had not been at its best ever since she gave birth to Hayden. She only got better after her
living conditions had improved with time. The only thing that stayed with her was her anemia.
Nicole must have blacked out temporarily because she had received such shocking news after she had
been standing for too long.
