Chapter 1259 Do Me a Favor

"Chloe, I'm left with no other option. Can you please do this favor for me?" Nicole gazed up at Chloeearnestly, her weary eyes now alarmingly red, with teardrops sliding down from the corners.

On the other hand, Chloe held back the words she was about to say. She understood that Nicole washolding back tears, protecting her last vestiges of dignity. "Alright, I understand," she conceded as sheclosed her eyes with a resigned sigh. It seems there is no alternative at this moment.

After hearing this, a bright smile blossomed on Nicole's face.

In the meantime, Chloe's gaze lingered as she took in the sight. It was the first genuine smile she hadseen from Nicole since then. The previous smiles had been difficult to witness, appearing morecoerced than sincere.

"I'll prepare it and bring it to you tomorrow morning," she said, swallowing her emotions as she spoke.She left the room, wondering why Nicole had to endure such suffering. She also pondered why Nicolerefused to reveal who had cast the voodoo on her—she wouldn't let that person escape easily.

After Chloe departed, Nicole picked up her phone and dialed a number she hadn't called in a long time."Zach, I might need your help," she said.

Meanwhile, at the Gardners' Villa, Colton had locked himself in his room for a day and night, isolatedsince returning from the research center.

Evelyn stood outside his door, knocking vigorously. "Colton, could you meet me just once? I need totalk to you," she shouted with an ear-piercing scream.

The butler next to her shook his head, concerned for her well-being. "Miss Wrenn, you should rest. Youmight be able to endure this, but think about the child you're carrying."

He was taken aback when he saw Colton bringing Evelyn home the other day. After all, it had been awhile since he had seen Nicole. The sudden appearance of Evelyn made him realize that somethingmust have happened between Colton and Nicole. Shockingly, Miss Wrenn is pregnant with Mr.Gardner's child! He sighed as he pondered this. He then recalled a few days prior when Colton camehome, brimming with happiness, and shared with him the joy of Nicole's pregnancy. Who could haveforeseen that Miss Wrenn would also become pregnant? Fate truly has a way of playing tricks onpeople.

"He hasn't eaten anything for a whole day and night. This will affect his health if he continues like this.He needs to eat something," Evelyn expressed her concerns while holding a plate of delicious food thathad gone cold.

After hearing this, the butler frowned deeply. He had also considered what she had just said, but theyknew Colton wouldn't take their advice unless it came from Nicole.

As seconds ticked away, Evelyn suddenly remembered Colton was scheduled to meet Nicole today.Hence, she hurriedly handed the plate of food to the butler and shouted, "Colton, you're meeting Nicoletoday. You won't have the strength to face her if you don't eat!"

In the meantime, Colton was half-lying on the floor inside his room. Then, he propped himself up withone hand while his head rested against the wall, appearing utterly exhausted. Nicole? He mutteredweakly as he struggled to his feet awkwardly, resembling a walking corpse. With sluggish movements,he swung the door open and saw Evelyn and the butler standing outside.

When Evelyn saw Colton's disheveled face as the door swung open, she took a few steps back. Is thisthe Collie I know?

"Mr. Gardner." The butler hesitated slightly, shooting a quick glare at the person behind him. Hepromptly instructed, "Why are you still standing there? Go and get the food heated up."

"Colton, what's so captivating about Nicole? She's about to divorce you. Why are you still allowingyourself to become like this?" Evelyn shook her head in disbelief.

When did Colton and Nicole's relationship become this good? It had reached a point where evenEvelyn found herself envious of it. Their bond was unbreakable, even when she cast the voodoo bugon him.
