CHAPTER 1007 MAKE AN APPEARANCE

Seeing that Siobhan tried to explain herself again, Nicole opened her eyes and interrupted, "I cannotstop you from doing what you did, Madam Gould. But I am no saint. I cannot forgive someone who haskilled my child."

Siobhan gave Nicole a conflicted look. Nicole looked pale as the wall behind her, and she was hookedup to an IV infusion. Scabs were forming over the wounds on her face, but that was the least of herconcern. Her biggest concern was that she had lost her child. "I know," Siobhan whispered.

She knew this would happen the moment she chose to send Evelyn overseas. When she looked atNicole again, she was filled with guilt. A moment of hesitation later, she said, "Get some rest. I'll seeyou some other day."

Nicole opened her eyes at that. Without showing any hint of emotion on her face, she called out toSiobhan, "I think you shouldn't come to see me anymore, Madam Gould."

Siobhan froze for a moment and looked at her daughter. She realized she must have hurt Nicoledeeply, and for the first time in her life, she was at a loss. "I—"

Before she could finish her sentence, Nicole interrupted, "What you do is none of my business, andfrom now on, my life is none of your business as well. We walk our own paths now. Your families havenothing to do with me anymore."

Siobhan immediately caught on to what she was trying to say. She is cutting ties with me. Siobhanopened her mouth, but not a word came out. A long while later, she forced a smile and gently said,

"Get some rest. Don't think about it too much." With that, she closed the door quietly and left.

As soon as the door was closed, Nicole could no longer hold her tears back. She held her blanket andcried into it, sobbing inconsolably. She thought she could finally get some motherly love, but then herown mother took someone else's side. She took the side of the woman who killed her unborn child.

Colton came back to the spot they locked the Undercity people up. Julian and Roger were standingside-by-side, and a woman stood before them. The woman had beautiful curves accentuated by hertight leather clothes. Her hair was tied up, and she was wearing a pair of military leather boots, lookingprofessional.

When she heard the footsteps, Sasha turned around, and her gaze landed on Colton's face. He wasn'twearing any suit that day. Instead, Colton wore oversized clothes and didn't style his hair. His stubblewas long as if it had been days since he shaved.

The two stared into each other's eyes for a long time, but none spoke.

In the end, Roger broke the silence. "She's the one who tossed Boss from the third floor."

And that broke Sasha's thoughts. She reluctantly looked away from Colton and stared at the ground,smiling. "Yes, I did."

Fury flared in Roger's heart. He clenched his fist and tried to hit her, but Julian held him back. Thatwarranted a look of displeasure from Roger. He growled, "Why are you stopping me? She hurt myboss. I'm making her pay!"

Julian dragged Roger aside, and Colton stepped ahead. Eventually, he stood before Sasha. "You hurtNicky and killed her unborn child."
