Chapter 1193 Feel for Her
Evelyn pulled her hand back, but she stood her ground, refusing to leave. Now that Colton had forgotten about her
crimes and his past with Nicole, it was the perfect chance for her to exploit this opening. She didn't want to give up
just like that. Evelyn turned her gaze to Colton and deliberately pulled the puppy eyes look. "I want to stay here with
you, Colton."
The look did not elicit an ounce of sympathy from Colton, but she did save him once, so he relented a little. "I'm
almost healed now. I don't need you taking care of me, but you can stay if you want."

The announcement made Nicole tense. Confusion flashed in her eyes, and she turned around, giving Colton a hurt
look.
Siobhan entered just then. When she saw Evelyn in the room, it made her frown, and she went over to grab Evelyn
by the wrist. "Get back, Evelyn."
Evelyn would not give her chance up that easily, not when she went through hell just to get it, and she shook her
head. "No, I want to take care of him. And he said I could stay."
Siobhan knew Colton had lost his memory, but she was surprised he was being so lenient with Evelyn. She looked at
Nicole and realized she looked stiff. Siobhan took on a stern countenance and tersely said, "I need to talk to you.
Come with me."

The fact that Siobhan took Nicole's side angered Evelyn, and she choked, her eyes glistening with tears. "He's
forgotten about her, so why are you taking her side?"
Gods, how stubborn can this girl be? Siobhan felt a headache coming on.
Colton wondered why they were fighting, but he defended Evelyn, "Madam Gould, she can stay if she wants to."
Siobhan's frown deepened right there and then.
Nicole stepped in when she saw that things were getting even more awkward. "Let her stay, Madam Gould."
Nicole's intervention made Siobhan stop. She had a conflicted look in her eyes, but eventually, she said nothing.
Once she was gone, Nicole approached Colton and stared at him. Colton raised his head to meet her eyes as well.
They were as clear as a lake, her soul laid bare to see. Just a look into her eyes filled him with affection.

"I am Nicole Anderson, a doctor. I'll check on you now. Tell me if you feel unwell," said Nicole.
Her voice was crisp and clear. When she spoke, it was like a warm breeze brushing against his face. It felt nice.
"Sure." Colton nodded.
Nicole dismissed Evelyn and quickly checked on Colton. He had a sturdy constitution. Thanks to that, he healed fast
right after the bug was extracted. Aside from his amnesia, there was nothing else wrong with him. Still, she had no
idea why he lost his memories. She chalked it up to the brainwashing Evelyn did when he was under the spell.
After a round of check-ups, Nicole pulled her hand back and stood up, but everything around her turned black, and
her stomach churned. She clasped a hand over her mouth as she almost puked.
Colton hastily held her and asked, "What's wrong?" Nicole was but a stranger to him, and yet seeing her looking so
pale made his heart hurt. It seemed that some part of him was worried for her.
