Right Person, Wrong Time Capítulo 990

Chapter 990 A Trap

At the thought of this, a hint of caution flickered across her eyes. Did someone lure me here intentionally? Just

when she was suspecting it, she suddenly heard some footsteps from behind and looked back reflexively.

It was Evelyn. Clad in a black dress, she was wearing a lace hat, and her high heels could be heard click-clacking

across the floor when she approached.

Unwilling to have too much contact with her, Nicole simply pretended not to see her and turned sideways in an

attempt to leave.

However, Evelyn had come to Nicole on purpose this time, so she wouldn't let go of this opportunity, of course. She

hurriedly stepped forward and blocked Nicole's path, saying with a smile, "Nicole, don't you think you should at least

say hello to me? We know each other, after all."

Nicole raised her eyes and darted a look at her. Just what has she got up her sleeve? Taking several steps back

warily, she replied coldly, "I don't think we know each other that well yet, no, Miss Wrenn?"

Seeing how cautious she looked, Evelyn said nothing, though a faint smile spread across her face. She said slowly,

"Don't be so distant with me. In any case, we're now living under the same roof."

Nicole narrowed her eyes with visible caution. She didn't believe that Evelyn would suddenly come to her for such a

simple purpose. She's got to be up to something. "Not really. Miss Wrenn, just spit out whatever you want to say. I

don't think we're close enough to sit down and talk to each other."

Seeing how wary Nicole was of her, Evelyn let out a chuckle. She asked with a hint of banter in her voice, "Nicole,

don't tell me you're afraid that I'll do something to you?"

Nicole stared at her, still looking indifferent as usual without much of an expression on her delicately pretty face.

Evelyn still looked calm on the outside, but inwardly, she was very anxious. She had lured Nicole here by posing as

Siobhan; now that Sasha was already waiting outside, she had to be as quick as possible. At the thought of this, she

looked up at Nicole and continued, "Nicole, you've stolen Collie from me and robbed me of my status. You have

everything now, while I have nothing."

Nicole lifted her eyes while eyeing Evelyn impassively. Although Siobhan and Jackson already knew the latter's

identity, they still let her stay at the Gould Residence and acknowledged her as a daughter of the Wrenn Family. She

had no objection to this; after all, it was normal for them to be reluctant to part with the daughter they had raised

for over 20 years.

That being said, she thought Evelyn's attitude was strange. The latter had looked all exasperated when she

previously got engaged to Colton in her stead, but ever since she returned from the island after Hayden's

poisoning, she had been so well-behaved as though she were a completely different person.

Nicole didn't believe that a person could change so much all of a sudden. Perhaps she's waiting for an opportunity

to unleash some masterstroke or something. "Miss Wrenn, I didn't steal anything from you. All of this was mine in

the first place. As for Colton, you have only yourself to blame for wanting something that doesn't belong to you,"

she replied slowly, stressing each word with a smile on her face.

Evelyn's countenance changed. Her face turned pale, while her hands clenched into fists by her sides, but she

endured it at the thought of what Sasha had said. "You really have a sharp tongue, huh?" She let out a sneer.

Closing her eyes slightly, she went on, "Nicole, I know you're looking for the person who poisoned Hayden."

This finally caught Nicole's attention, and she fixed her black eyes steadily on Evelyn for a long time. Then, she

asked, "Who was it?"

Evelyn's face showed a hint of smugness after she managed to turn the tables on Nicole. She let out a chuckle,

saying, "I know you care about this. So, shouldn't you offer something to trade for it?"

Nicole looked at Evelyn. She knew that the lady was definitely plotting something, but she couldn't help falling into

her trap upon recalling the scene of Hayden's poisoning.
