CHAPTER 1013 WHITNEY COMES

She's angry. Colton chuckled. "Yeah, but since they made their choice, I'll be the one taking charge ofNicole's case now."

Anna sighed. She knew her son too well and knew what he was going to do, so she patted hisshoulder. "I know what you're thinking, but the Goulds and the Wrenns are powerful. We can't wineasily."

"I know." Colton nodded. He mulled over the matter for a moment and said, "Keep an eye on Nicole. Ithink she's cutting ties with the Wrenns from now on."

Anna nodded. Colton had been trying to replace the people who had hurt Nicole. "I know. Do what youhave to do. I'll take care of things here."

…

After Nicole had a miscarriage, Whitney came to see her, but Whitney herself looked bad. Her face waspale, her cheeks were sunken, and she had dark circles under her eyes. Her head was hanging low,and she looked listless. Whitney looked at Nicole and took a careful step ahead. She was at a loss forwhat to do, and a moment later, she said, "Nicole."

Nicole had her eyes closed. When she heard someone opening the door, she thought it was Siobhan,so she didn't open her eyes. Only when she heard Whitney's voice did she open her eyes to look. Shelooks sickly. Nicole frowned. "What happened to you?"

Whitney used to be a carefree girl, unlike this cowardly husk of a woman. She dumbly shook her headand clasped her hands together nervously. "Just lost some sleep lately."

After days of recuperation, Nicole had healed up. She pushed herself up and leaned on the back of herbed, then she said, "Sit."

Whitney nodded and dragged a chair over, then she sat down.

Nicole sighed. "I'm fine. You didn't have to come. Look at you. Get some rest and don't run around."

Whitney hung her head low, looking dejected. She avoided seeing Nicole for a while because she wasworried Douglas might replace her. She did take Emily's money and agreed to leave him. She couldimagine the look on Douglas' face if he knew she had taken money from Emily, and she couldn't facehim.

"Yeah," Whitney muttered.

Nicole could guess what she was thinking about and said, "No amount of convincing can help you withmatters of the heart. You'll have to figure it out yourself."

A bitter smile tugged on Whitney's lips. Only those who were in the pit of love could know how bad itwas. "I know, but I've made up my mind. I'll raise the baby myself. I owe Douglas too much."

Nicole was worried for her friend. She had lost a lot of weight after the whole fiasco abroad. "Just settledown and get plenty of rest. If you keep your mind too occupied, it won't be good for the baby." Themention of babies filled Nicole's eyes with sadness.

Whitney had been friends with her for enough years to notice that sadness, but she had no idea how toconsole Nicole.
