Chapter 1261 Zachary?
The smile on Evelyn's face froze instantly. The words of the woman before her felt like a public slap,leaving her wondering how to keep her dignity.
Anyone who could freely move about here undoubtedly belonged to Nicole's circle. Evelyn hated Nicolewith a passion!
Upon seeing Chloe's arrival, Colton realized the distance between himself and Evelyn. He quicklyshifted to the side to maintain a distance from her.
Evelyn hadn't recovered from the previous incident when she sensed Colton avoiding her as if shewere the plague. Her face turned grim and she was suddenly unable to decide whether to sit or move.
"Nicole." Colton gazed at Nicole, who had just entered the room, with affection. He slowly rose from hisseat and reached out, trying to hold her hand.
Evelyn glared at Nicole. When Colton was about to approach Nicole, Evelyn clenched her teeth andgrabbed his arm. "Colton, it's better if you stay seated. Nicole might feel pressured otherwise."
His face darkened. He quickly withdrew his hand and wiped his sleeve as if he had touched somethingfilthy.
It was impossible for Evelyn to miss this gesture from Colton. However, she refrained from gettingangry because she noticed that Nicole was watching them. After all, getting angry would surely befodder for Nicole's amusement.
Nicole paid no attention to Evelyn's gaze and actions. She focused entirely on Colton.
Even though he had taken great care with his appearance, she could tell that he hadn't been doing wellduring the time they had been apart. There was stubble remaining on his jaw.
"I asked you to come today so that you can sign the divorce agreement." She placed the document inher hand on the table in front of him. Her tone was indifferent, devoid of any warmth.
Colton sat there in a daze. Then, he lowered his gaze to the divorce agreement—it was identical toyesterday's copy since it bore numerous creases, all of which he had created.
"What?" he asked.
"Divorce. I've made myself clear." Nicole impatiently spoke, repeating the matter of divorce. "I can'taccept the fact that Evelyn is pregnant with your child. We must get divorced. Can't you understand,Colton?"
He merely shook his head, showing no response to her words.
"Colton, I know Nicole can't accept that I'm carrying your child. If that's the case, then get a divorce withher. Are you willing to let your child grow up without a father? I'm the child's biological mother." Seizingthe opportunity, Evelyn clung to his arm.
Colton impatiently pulled his arm away and glared fiercely at her. It was as if he was warning her thathe would lose his temper on the spot if she touched him again.
Evelyn was frightened by his demeanor and dared not to make a move. She stood silently to the sideand no longer spoke.
"I won't get divorced," he replied.
"Colton, just give up."
Colton raised his head in astonishment after hearing the sudden male voice. A familiar face appearedbefore him.
"Zachary, what are you doing here?" His brow furrowed slightly as he had a bad feeling.
Zachary had once pursued Nicole. Colton had considered him his greatest rival and now, this rival wasstanding right here. It was undoubtedly not good news.
At this moment, Nicole gracefully hooked her arm through Zachary's in front of the crowd. With a sweetsmile, she said, "We're together now. I no longer love you. If you're sensible, go ahead and sign theagreement."
"What are you saying?" Colton couldn't believe his ears. As he had suspected, the worst possiblescenario was occurring before his eyes.
Zachary's expression remained cool as his large hand covered Nicole's. Their fingers intertwined."Colton, just give up. Don't continue to pester Nicole. Since Nicole no longer loves you, you should lether go."
The affectionate scene between the two hurt Colton. Even though the truth was right in front of him, hecouldn't achieve complete calmness.
