Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1172 Before the Celebration

Jennifer couldn't say anything else at Nicole's resolute stance and nodded in resignation. "You don't look too hot right now. I can't let you go alone. So, I'll accompany you since it's my day off anyway."

Nicole wanted to reject her offer but heard Jennifer say before she could even voice her thoughts, "Nicole, the Zeller Family owes you a great debt. I'll be sad if you say no."

So, Nicole could only swallow the words that were about to escape her lips. "Then, thank you, Mrs. Zeller."

It didn't sit well with Jennifer to let Nicole go to the science academy in her frail state. So, she drove Nicole there herself.

There was a celebration today, and several reporters were in attendance. So, there was a crowd long before they even entered the establishment.

After Jennifer parked the car, she walked in with Nicole beside her. Since many people were visiting the place due to the celebration, the guards didn't stop them. Anyone could enter if they wished. So, the usually silent place was bustling with people.

Jennifer worked in the science academy, so someone called out to her as soon as they passed through the gates.

She didn't want to answer, but she hadn't even managed to nod politely before the people surrounded her and started to chatter, "It's been some time since you visited us, Mrs. Jennifer. What brings you here today?"

"It's probably because of the celebration. That's what brought Mrs. Jennifer here."

Jennifer was rendered speechless at the incessant nattering. Just as she was about to say something, she realized that Nicole had slipped away.

She was worried about Nicole's health and didn't want to stay there any longer. So, she said, "I'm sorry, I've got some business to attend to. If you have questions, you may ask the other teachers for help."

Then, she walked away in hurried steps.

At that moment, Nicole was rushing toward the science academy's library. After a night's research, she knew that she needed golden needles to force the voodoo bug out of the body.

Nonetheless, the exact method to do that was all recorded in the medical books that were supposed to be in the medical base. Yet, those books were all sold off to the science academy by Gina due to her greed.

Suddenly, a person blocked Nicole's path toward the library.

It was none other than Natasha.

Nicole narrowed her eyes at the unwelcome presence and coldly questioned, "How may I help you?"

Natasha looked at Nicole as hatred flashed in her eyes. However, she recalled Logan's orders and forced herself to remain calm as she clenched her fist before saying, "I have something to tell you, Nicole. Follow me."

Nicole raised a brow and smiled. "Just say whatever it is you want to say right here. I'm listening."
