Right Person, Wrong Time

While hugging Nicole, Colton did not know how to put his thought into words. Could he tell her he had dreamt about Evelyn? That would prove he had betrayed their relationship. "I'm fine. I just feel slightly uneasy," he replied.

His reluctance to disclose information rendered her to stop pressing on. Silence filled the air, and before the two could speak, they suddenly heard a gurgling sound. Colton bowed his head and discovered Nicole was hungry. He could not hold back his laughter and let out a low chuckle before getting out of bed.

"What would you like to eat? I'll buy it for you," he asked.

Blushing, she secretly complained that it was his fault because his inability to control himself made her miss breakfast. "I want Restradian dishes, and you can decide the others." She flipped to the side and covered her head with the blanket.

The man left upon humming in response. Once he was gone, Nicole emerged from under the covers and stared at the ceiling. Her mind began wandering as she blinked, recalling the events during these two days.

Meanwhile, Colton came out of the hotel and bumped into Evelyn. When she saw him, she did not hesitate to greet him, "Collie, are you here on vacation too?"

He glanced at her and moved away without replying, prepared to act like he did not see her.

It was difficult for Evelyn to come upon such a chance, so how could she let it go so carelessly? Seeing that Colton was ignoring her, she approached him and hugged his arm, whining, "Collie, I'm talking to you. Why aren't you replying to me?"

Looking at the hand on his arm, he habitually shook it off. Perhaps he had used too much strength because she stumbled and fell backward onto her butt. Her eyes brimmed with tears as she bit her lips, looking at the tall man pitifully. "Collie, why are you treating me like that? I like you. Nicole came second, while I've always liked you!" she accused while crying.

She struggled to get up from the floor and continued to approach Colton, but his voice instantly deepened as he warned her, "Evelyn, I'm warning you. Stay away from me, or I won't show you mercy."

Despite his warning, she did not care because she only had him in her mind. Now that the love bug had been planted on him, he would be hers sooner or later. While she thought of that, she shamelessly approached him and looked at him with affectionate eyes. Then, she gently added, "Collie, can you not act so heartlessly? Just look at me. I don't mind your feelings for Nicole."
