Right Person, Wrong Time Chapter 873

Chapter 873

It was still afternoon when Nicole brought Hayden home.

After Sasha showed up uninvited, Hayden lost the mood to continue the outing. He had been keeping a sullen face

for the rest of the day, indicating he was in low spirits.

There was no need to ask him since Nicole could already tell what was on his mind. However, it involved Colton, and

she couldn't do much about it other than bring her son home.

...

After Sasha left the restaurant, she headed straight back to the car. She only brought Alvin with her when she came

out to see Nicole.

Alvin was waiting in the driver's seat when Sasha returned in anger. He asked in a soft voice,

"How is it going? She declined, I guess?"

She sneered at him before entering into an explanation, "I thought she would've taken the bait, considering she has

feelings for Colton."

Watching the woman's gloomy expression, Alvin attempted to help her see sense.

"According to what happened with William, the Andersons and the Gardners are bound to be hating each other.

Colton can never marry Nicole as long as Old Mr. Benedict is alive."

Sasha replied in a low voice, "I understand. It's just that I thought Nicole would do it for her son's sake. It turns out

I'm wrong about her."

Just the thought of being turned down by Nicole in the restaurant put her in a bad mood.

"I've done my research on Nicole. She's a rational woman," Alvin remarked without being biased.

Sasha's eyes were darkened by determination. Even though she didn't have many options left, she had to stop

Colton and Evelyn's engagement no matter what.

"If she isn't going to work with me, I have to do it on my own," she announced.

Upon hearing her resolution, Alvin tried to change her mind. "Sasha, don't do anything rash. The things around

Undercity are still unstable. You can't—"

Before he could finish his words, she interrupted him with a wave of dismissal,

"I get what you mean. However, I won't watch the man I love marry another woman without doing anything to stop

it. Alvin, you won't understand, but that's how love works."

Her retort left him speechless for a moment. He indeed understood how it worked. The only difference was that all

he cared about was her.

He didn't say anything to change her mind when he found determination on her face. Instead, he shook his head.

"All right. Do what you have to do."

...

Evelyn's eyes were shining in anticipation when she saw Colton. It was the first time he took the initiative to ask her

out.

She put on her best outfit for the occasion today. The combination of a light yellow dress and a pair of loafers set

off her lady-like vibe.

Fixing her gaze on the ground, she shyly stole a glance at Colton. Then, she withdrew her gaze before he could

notice. After pondering for a moment, she said,

"Colton, i-is there something I can help you with?"

Even though Colton noticed her shy look, he remained blank-faced. Tossing his phone onto the table, he opened

Nicole's design and got down to business.

"Explain."

For a moment, Evelyn didn't register the situation when she saw the design shown on the phone. Her eyes slightly

widened as a confused noise escaped her.

Noticing the confused look on her face, he pointed to the phone and elaborated, "You asked Nicole to design a

gown for you."

She finally paid attention after he explained. Looking down at the design, she complimented it with a smile,

"Miss Lisa has outdone herself again. Collie, don't you think the gown suits me?"

When Colton didn't get the answer he wanted to hear, he slightly knitted his brows. His tone was as flat as ever, but

a hint of warning dripped off his voice. "Leave Nicole alone."

Evelyn's smile gradually froze because she never expected him to be so heartless. Biting her lips, she explained,

"Collie, Nicole used to be the chief designer of F&M Apparel. All I'm doing is seeking her help to design the perfect

gown for me. I don't mean anything ill."
