Chapter 973 Feeling Unwell
Colton looked at Nicole's pale face and felt his heart ache.
He reached out to support her and asked softly with a frown, "How are you feeling? Are you okay?"
Nicole reacted and tasted bitterness in her mouth. She shook her head and said, "It's nothing."
Hayden's face was filled with worry when he saw that Nicole was uncomfortable. "Mom, what's wrong?"
Colton patted Nicole's back and didn't say much to Hayden. He only said, "She has been too tired recently and she
may not be feeling well."
Hayden didn't doubt it, and his little face wrinkled like a bun as he said maturely, "Mom, I'm okay. Now that we're in
the hospital, both my grandmothers and the doctors will care for me. You don't have to worry. We'll go home right
away as soon as I get better."

Nicole forced a bleak smile and pursed her lips. "I'm alright," she murmured in a low voice. "It's just a bit of
stomach discomfort."
Nicole raised her face, her complexion and lips pale. Truth was, she looked like she was about to collapse.
Colton reached out to hold her, and she felt nauseous in her stomach. She feared Hayden would worry, so she
urged, "Rest well, Hayden. I'll come to see you another day."
Hayden nodded and commented cutely, "Mom, you should rest too."
After speaking, he looked up at Colton with a serious expression. "Dad, you have to take good care of Mom."
"Okay." Colton agreed before supporting Nicole out of the ward.
On the other end, Nicole couldn't hold it in anymore after leaving the ward. She leaned against the wall and
squatted beside a trash can, retching continuously.
Colton felt sorry for her and patted her back to help her breathe.
Anna happened to pass by and saw that Nicole was feeling unwell, so she asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is Nicole

feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Nicole wiped the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand. She was weak all over and felt that her reaction
this time was more severe than when she was pregnant with Hayden. Not only was her stomach uncomfortable,
but her whole body was weak as well.
"It's nothing," Nicole said hoarsely, not wanting to tell Anna about her pregnancy.
Anna looked up at Colton and furrowed her brows. "What's going on, Colton? Why did Nicole have such a strong
reaction?" she asked.
Colton helped Nicole to calm down and, understanding her meaning, said perfunctorily, "Maybe it's because she's
been working hard lately and also has a stomach problem."
Anna didn't think much of it. Looking very concerned, she took a few steps to Nicole's side and grabbed her hand,

whispering, "Nicole, you don't need to worry about Hayden with me here. Since your body isn't healthy, don't
overwork yourself. Go back and rest quickly."
Nicole put most of her weight on Colton's body. When she looked up, she saw Anna's caring face. "Thank you, Mrs.
Gardner," she murmured with a nod.
Nicole didn't want to say much now. The smell of hospital disinfectant made her feel dizzy and uncomfortable.
Colton tugged on Nicole's arm and looked at his mother as he mentioned in a low voice, "Mom, I'll take Nicole back
first. Thank you for taking care of Hayden."
Anna waved her hand and urged, "Go back and rest first. I'll take care of things here, so don't worry."
"Okay." Colton nodded before turning around and taking Nicole with him.
It was raining heavily outside, and the raindrops were hitting the ground loudly. The sky was dark and gloomy.
The tall trees outside the hospital were being battered by the wind and rain, making a rustling sound as the leaves
swayed back and forth in the wind.
When they arrived, it was still sunny but in the blink of an eye, the rain had started pouring
