Right Person, Wrong Time

The two of them ordered some dishes and began eating while chatting.

However, Natasha was the one who did the talking most of the time, whereas Nicole quietly listened to her on the side.

"The treatment at the science academy is very good. If you get in, you won't have to worry about money for the rest of your life. By the way, what do you do for a living, Nicole? Why do you want to take the science academy's entrance exam?" Natasha asked curiously.

Nicole lowered her gaze and pondered for a moment before answering slowly, "I work as a fashion designer. I used to study medicine before this, so I want to see if I'm suited for this field."

Natasha widened her eyes slightly and thought for a while before frowning. She then said tactfully, "The science academy has a great reputation in Durobrivae. Those who can get in are the cream of the crop. It's rare for someone to pass the exam on their first try, but you can do it if you work hard."

Nicole listened to her words, smiled faintly, and remained silent. She had learned from White, so these exams were a piece of cake to her. Even if Logan Yale personally came forward, he wouldn't be able to beat her.

Noticing Nicole's silence, Natasha didn't say anything more and started eating.

Meanwhile, at the science academy, Evelyn only knew that Nicole had come to Durobrivae with Colton but didn't know their exact location. As such, she was here in the science academy to look for Ryan.

He wasn't surprised to see her there. He simply raised an eyebrow before asking, "Miss Wrenn, is there something you need?"



She asked worriedly, "Will something happen to Colton if I'm not with him?"

"Yes," Ryan responded affirmatively. After thinking for a moment, he added, "The voodoo was cultivated using your blood. It will erupt if it stays away from you for a long time. Colton will die within a month."

When she heard that Colton would die, her expression froze. She had gone to great lengths just to be with Colton. She couldn't let him die!

"Do you have any way of getting me into the medical base?" Her eyes flickered with urgency as she looked at Ryan and asked.

"I do, but why should I help you, Miss Wrenn?" he asked nonchalantly.
