Chapter 1352 Pregnant

Needless to say, Colton noticed Kendrick's change in facial expression. All of a sudden, exultation washed over him.

It went without saying that a man could see through another man. The way Kendrick looked at Nicole was far from

ordinary, and his reaction upon learning that she was pregnant was really satisfying.

Nicole hesitated for a moment, grateful that Chloe had reacted swiftly by preventing that person from hurting her

baby by accident. Thinking of her baby, she suddenly realized that she had almost forgotten about them for such a

long time. However, her pregnancy this time was different from the norm. She hadn't experienced morning

sickness or other visible signs of pregnancy, nor was there anything particularly uncomfortable about it.

Kendrick asked, "Miss Anderson, are you pregnant?" He found this hard to believe. He hadn't heard anything about

Nicole being pregnant. Moreover, if she was indeed pregnant, she should've lost her baby under the effect of the

voodoo bug Ryan had planted on her.

Hearing his question, Nicole looked at him with embarrassment. "Sorry, Mr. Hofstead. I didn't mention it before, but

I'm already five months along."

Five months along, eh? Colton's eyelids twitched. He couldn't help but let out a sneer as he brushed past Nicole,

saying in an icy voice, "Wendy, let's go."

Nicole staggered slightly; for a moment, she was unsteady on her feet. Fortunately, Chloe was quick enough to

support her just before she fell. "Nicole, why don't you go back and rest if you're not feeling well?"

Needless to soy, Colton noticed Kendrick's chonge in fociol expression. All of o sudden, exultotion woshed over him.

It went without soying thot o mon could see through onother mon. The woy Kendrick looked ot Nicole wos for from

ordinory, ond his reoction upon leorning thot she wos pregnont wos reolly sotisfying.

Nicole hesitoted for o moment, groteful thot Chloe hod reocted swiftly by preventing thot person from hurting her

boby by occident. Thinking of her boby, she suddenly reolized thot she hod olmost forgotten obout them for such o

long time. However, her pregnoncy this time wos different from the norm. She hodn't experienced morning

sickness or other visible signs of pregnoncy, nor wos there onything porticulorly uncomfortoble obout it.

Kendrick osked, "Miss Anderson, ore you pregnont?" He found this hord to believe. He hodn't heord onything obout

Nicole being pregnont. Moreover, if she wos indeed pregnont, she should've lost her boby under the effect of the

voodoo bug Ryon hod plonted on her.

Heoring his question, Nicole looked ot him with emborrossment. "Sorry, Mr. Hofsteod. I didn't mention it before, but

I'm olreody five months olong."

Five months olong, eh? Colton's eyelids twitched. He couldn't help but let out o sneer os he brushed post Nicole,

soying in on icy voice, "Wendy, let's go."

Nicole stoggered slightly; for o moment, she wos unsteody on her feet. Fortunotely, Chloe wos quick enough to

support her just before she fell. "Nicole, why don't you go bock ond rest if you're not feeling well?"

"It's not necessary." Nicole shook her head slightly, but her face turned pale in an instant, as if her health had

deteriorated at this very moment.

Chloe frowned deeply. She knew that Nicole's condition wasn't due to illness; it was just that Colton's every move

had an impact on her. Nicole must've noticed Colton's expression just now, or she wouldn't have reacted like this.

"Take care of yourself, Nicole." Wendy looked at Nicole with concern. She was somewhat worried, but Colton was

getting farther and farther ahead, giving her no time to continue reminiscing.

"Miss Anderson, if you're not feeling well, you should go back and rest. I'll handle things here," whispered Kendrick

tenderly, having gauged the situation from Colton's expression just now.

Nicole shook her head. "It's alright, Mr. Hofstead. Let's go inside." She took a step back, keeping a clear distance

from him.

As soon as she said that, Chloe supported her as they headed toward the private room reserved by Kendrick.

Kendrick watched Nicole leave with a dark look in his eyes. The baby surely isn't Colton's. In that case, whose baby

is it? If it's Colton's, why would he look so grim just now? With questions in his mind, he followed Nicole into the

private room, where the researchers had been waiting for a long time.

As soon as Nicole entered, they began chatting amiably with her.

"Nicole, our team made some major progress today. It's really awesome," said a researcher proudly. Progress

meant breakthroughs. For their medical base, this was cause for huge celebrations.

Nicole broke into a smile at these words. She quickly congratulated, "Well then, your team had better eat more

tonight!"

"Hurray!" The whole room burst into cheers at once.

Due to the large number of people, Kendrick had to reserve three private rooms to accommodate everyone. At this

moment, Nicole was in charge of one private room, Chloe another, while Kendrick took care of the third.

Noticing that Kendrick wasn't around, one of the researchers quietly leaned in and whispered to Nicole, "Nicole, Mr.

Hofstead is really generous with money. Usually, it's only when I'm very tired that I'd come to places like this to treat

myself."

As they spoke, other researchers chimed in one after another, telling Nicole about the benefits of this place and

recommending some lesser-known but tasty dishes.

Nicole nodded while responding to each of them. Ever since that person went to jail, the salaries of the medical

base's staff had increased. Although they couldn't afford to eat well every day, they could afford to indulge in good

food once in a while.
