Right Person, Wrong Time Capítulo 1164

Chapter 1164 Rumors

Nicole lowered her head and stared at the key in her hand as she thought, It looks like I will have to return to the

science academy again tonight and sneak into the basement to check if there are any voodoo bugs conveniently

available over there.

Meanwhile, Nathan seemed to have noticed Nicole's slightly absent-minded state throughout the meal. Therefore,

he didn't ask Nicole to stick around any longer than she had to. As a result, Nicole left as soon as dinner was over.

Nicole returned to the science academy after she left Nathan's house. Since it was already rather late, there were

very few people milling about in the science academy. Fortunately for her, it was precisely because of this factor

that she managed to sneak into the building and arrive at the basement door successfully without being thwarted

once.

The situation in the basement was even more desolate than the lobby which was only to be expected after she

learned about its existence. So, Nicole didn't waste her time as she poked through the keyhole with the key and

discovered that it was a perfect match. Then, she opened the door and walked in as silently as she could. It was

relatively dark as it was, after all, a basement, but as she was unfamiliar with her surroundings, she wasn't sure if

the basement was unoccupied despite its dim interior. Thus, she dared not risk switching on the light. As a result,

she had no choice but to brave the unknown as darkness crowded her steps.

Nicole walked further into the basement cautiously with light steps. Even though there were plenty of rooms in the

science academy's basement, all the rooms were clearly labeled. Hence, she could roughly guess the function of

each room based on the labels. Since the doors of these rooms weren't closed, she could enter each area

effortlessly with a slight push. However, as she continued to walk further into the basement, she found that the

innermost rooms were locked.

Nicole pushed the door hard a few times but soon realized that she couldn't open it when the door didn't budge

under her fingers. At that point, she had a hunch that the thing she was looking for was right in this room. So,

Nicole quickly unlocked her phone, tapped on the flashlight function, and began to study the lock. After a few

minutes, she discovered that this room was heavily looked upon closer inspection, for not only was its door made of

iron, but it was also secured with a combination lock and a key. Judging by the double protection for this very door,

she was now completely certain that inside this room was where those dastardly voodoo bugs were cultivated.

Although she had successfully located the places she was searching high and low for, her progress was forced to a

halt due to the heavy security. Therefore, she had no choice but to turn back as she couldn't find a way to open the

door on short notice.

I probably have to obtain the password for the combination lock and the key if I want to get into the room and find

the voodoo bugs, Nicole thought as she stared at the iron door. After a while, she turned around and left.

The next day, the news of Nicole being a sugar baby swiftly became a trending headline. Intimate photos between

Nicole and Nathan were everywhere on the trending search. Not only were they spotted leaving the science

academy together, but they were also seen returning to Nathan's home together.



The entire medical community was shocked as soon as this news came out. After all, Nathan and his wife had

supported each other for years and were known to be a great example of a perfect marriage couple amongst the

doctors in the medical community. Hence, the whole community was in disbelief that Nathan would cheat on his

wife, let alone have an affair with a woman about the same age as his daughter.

However, coupled with Nicole's sudden entry to the science academy the day before, everyone couldn't help but

start making speculations.

'No way! A May-December relationship!? How can he make advances to such a young woman?'

'Didn't Nicole get dismissed by the science academy the day before yesterday? Yet, she still managed to get in.

Who else has such great authority in the science academy other than Nathan? Tsk, tsk, tsk… To think that Nathan

would lose all sense of proprietary for the sake of his mistress…'

'Oh, that's right! Yesterday, I heard someone say that Nicole managed to get into the science academy with the

help of a letter of recommendation. It looks like there certainly is something fishy going on.'

'Well, the two were spotted entering a room together, weren't they? No one will believe a word you said if you tell

them nothing suspicious is going on between these two.'

'How disgusting! What is Nicole thinking?! Why does she think it's actually okay to be someone else's mistress at

such a young age?!'

Everyone made harsh remarks toward Nicole after the news broke out.

As for Nicole, she only learned about this news through Nathan's phone call.

"Nicole, have you seen the news on the Internet?" Nathan asked, sounding panicked.

"News? What news?" Nicole returned the question with one of her own, looking puzzled.

Nathan stretched out his hand and pinched his nose upon hearing her bewilderment. Then, he elaborated in a low

voice, "You will know what news I'm talking about by searching the Internet. Currently, there are rumors saying that

I-I…" Nathan couldn't bring himself to finish his sentence at all as he felt ashamed of the words he was about to say.

Nicole immediately whisked out her phone, searched the Internet, and only then did she see the scandalous rumors

about her relationship with Nathan. As she skimmed through netizens' comments on the Internet, she finally

understood why Nathan's voice sounded a little gloomy just now. So, this is why!

"Don't get upset, Mr. Zeller, I will clarify this matter as soon as possible," Nicole comforted him.
