Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1171 Bone-Tired

Nathan sighed as he noticed the state Nicole was in. He reached out to pat her shoulder and said, "I know you're anxious for results, but you can't do this to your body. If you keep this up, you'll fall sick before you save him."

Nicole shut her sore eyes as she hadn't slept well last night. She nodded and said with a feeble smile, "I know. Don't worry, Nathan."

Right after she finished talking, she felt her stomach turn. Her hand went to her mouth trying to squash the urge to vomit down, but she couldn't hold it back and retched beside the trash can. She hadn't eaten all day and all she could throw up was bile.

Nathan couldn't bear to see how terribly she was pushing herself. So, he supported her frail body before warning sternly, "Jennifer made food for you. You're going to eat them and get some rest. If you don't do those things, you can forget about using this lab for your research."

Even though Nathan sounded harsh, she knew he meant well. So, despite her worries about Colton, she also knew that her health would only deteriorate if she pushed her body too hard.

She massaged her temple as she wondered what happened to her stamina. Recently, she felt that her energy levels had dropped drastically as if she could faint any second.


"Alright. I'll take a break. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Zeller." She released a sigh before dragging her fatigued body to the Zeller Residence with Nathan accompanying her along the way.

Nicole was about to go home after she had a simple meal. But Nathan noticed her utterly knackered state and forced her to rest at his home.

Nicole didn't have the energy to decline and went into the guest room. She immediately fell into a deep slumber as soon as her head hit the pillow as she was bone tired.

She slept until 1.00PM and woke up in a daze. Her eyes were half open as she remained on the bed for a while as her mind slowly rebooted itself to life.

She muttered something under her breath before slowly sitting up. To make matters worse, her head felt heavy after her nap. Then, she reached for her phone to find that it was already past 1.00PM.

Last night in the laboratory, she made considerable progress regarding her research about this particular voodoo bug and recalled that the library in the medical base had some books on them.

Alas, as she remembered the letter she saw in Logan's study, she knew she had to make a trip to the science academy.

When Gina was at the medical base, she would always exchange things in the base for money from the science academy. So, Nicole was certain that the precious books were long gone.

Nicole endured the headache and got up to pour herself a glass of water before finally feeling better.
