Chapter 1129 The Medical Base

Nicole nodded and sighed. "Yeah, it's been years since we last met." If it was not because Colton wasinfected with the voodoo bug, she reckoned she would never return to Durobrivae.

"You ordered a full-body checkup for your husband. Is there a problem with him?" asked Gina.

Nicole lowered her gaze to the floor and, as though she remembered something, looked up at her andasked, "Gina, have you heard about the voodoo bug before?"

Taken aback, Gina then furrowed her brows together tightly. "This is only recorded in the medical booksand hasn't appeared in reality. What happened, Nicole? Is your husband infected by it?"

Nicole nodded as worry shrouded her eyes and said with a bitter smile, "Colton's been a little weirdlately, and I'm worried about his health. I asked around and deduced he was infected by the voodoobug." A sigh escaped her lips, and she added, "I've only read about the voodoo bug in medical booksbut have never seen them before. Furthermore, regular hospitals can't replace any trace of it through tests.That's why I brought him here."

After hearing why she was here, the look of unease on Gina's face finally faded away, and she nodded,saying, "Okay, I'll ask them to do a thorough scan."

Assured, Nicole nodded, and something else popped up in her mind. "Is my office in the base stillavailable?" she asked, changing the topic.

Gina froze and started to look awkward. After keeping her silence, she muttered, "Nicole…"

The hesitancy on her face struck Nicole as odd, so she asked, "What's wrong?"

Appearing embarrassed, she said, "Nicole, it's been so many years since you left the base, and it'ssuch a waste to keep the office unoccupied, so it's been repurposed. Why don't you use my office?"

Without thinking much about this, Nicole thought, She has a point. It's not surprising that the office isrepurposed when I've already left the place for almost eight years. "It's okay. I just want to look forinformation about the voodoo bug," she said with a smile.

Feeling relieved at her answer, Gina returned her smile and said hastily, "I'll ask someone to show youto the library. There are many records of the voodoo bug in there."

"Sure. Thanks for the help, Gina," Nicole said with a nod.

Then, Gina instructed someone next to her to lead Nicole to the library and breathed a sigh of reliefafter she left. Next to her, Roxanna Miller, who had kept quiet the entire time, finally spoke after Nicolewas out of earshot, "Ms. Feuer, do you think she's back to take away the medical base?"

Her question hit Gina's sore spot, and her face fell, snapping. "That's nonsense! She has never caredabout this place and is not fit to manage it!"

Although White has left the medical base to Nicole, the person managing the base all these years isme! Gina thought. Why should I hand over the place I've poured years of effort into to someone else?

"Somehow, I don't think things are as simple as it seems with her sudden return." Roxanna continuedto insist next to her.

A frown started to form on Gina's face, and she contemplated for a while before saying, "Let's just

observe the situation first and see what exactly she's up to this time."

With down-casted eyes, Roxanna nodded and said, "Okay, but we better beware of her, Ms. Feuer.This woman isn't as friendly as she appears."

Tired, Gina closed her eyes and nodded, saying in a low growl, "I got it. Say no more." After that, sheturned and left the spot.

She thought Nicole would never return to the base again, but she suddenly showed up today. If shewas simply here for that man's body checkup, then Gina had nothing to say. However, she would neverallow it if she was here to take back the medical base!
