Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1331

Colton sat dejectedly on his sofa while looking out the window as the night gradually fell. The uncomfortable feeling in his heart was magnified infinitely.

Although he had long been planning his future life and appeared no different from an ordinary person on the surface, there was something magical about the night. As soon as night fell, his mind would be filled with Nicole's figure, face, and how she moved.

All of this reminded him that she was now carrying another man's child in her belly, and their child had already passed away.

The night was always terrifying as it constantly devoured his rationality.

A figure moved on the second floor, darting around before finally slipping back into its room when no one was paying attention.

'Question: What should I do if my ex-wife has a child with another man?'

'PS: I still love my ex-wife.'

A young girl in her prime lay on a soft bed with her slender legs swinging back and forth. She was fully engrossed in looking at her tablet.

Alas. These netizens don't have any worthwhile advice to offer.

In less than three minutes, the girl sighed and complained while casually scrolling through suggestions

that were of no use to her. She shut off her tablet and tossed it aside.

Did Nicole really have a child with another man?

Wendy stared at the blindingly white ceiling and sighed helplessly to herself.

When she asked that question, she already had the answer in her heart. Definitely not.

However...

She sneaked out of bed and cautiously opened her bedroom door. From her vantage point, she could just see Colton downstairs drowning his sorrows in alcohol.

In his current state, he probably wouldn't pay attention to anything she said.

As Colton's younger sister, Wendy had grown up with him and naturally understood him very well.

Once he made up his mind about something, he wouldn't listen no matter how many people talked to him. Unless... Nicole personally explained.

Since their divorce, Nicole hasn't spoken to me.

Wendy, who was bored out of her mind, unlocked her phone and opened the chat box she had been eagerly awaiting a response from. The sound of her sigh came again.

"Alas."

"What should I do?"

Wendy kept talking to herself, but Nicole didn't respond at all. If this happened to anyone else, she would have gotten furious given her temperament.

However, Nicole was her beloved sister-in-law, so she had to handle it gently.

Knock, knock, knock.

Someone knocked on her door.

Wendy's eyes shifted, and she placed her phone face down on the bed. She then went to open the door, only to see a familiar face that carried a hint of sadness. She exclaimed in surprise, "Mom, why are you here so late at night?" Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Anna looked at her daughter's face, and her worries somewhat diminished.

She had a son and a daughter. Her son seemed normal during the day, but he started drinking all night once evening fell. Now, he was probably not mentally well.

Fortunately, her daughter was still healthy and stayed by her side.

"It's nothing. I just wanted to see you. I noticed you weren't asleep yet, so I thought I'd come in and chat with you."

Bang!

Just as Anna finished speaking, the sound of something being knocked over came from downstairs.

It was Colton.

The mother and daughter exchanged glances and sighed helplessly while facing each other.

They had long grown accustomed to such sounds.

"Mom, come in." Wendy knew what her mother was worrying about and quickly stepped aside to let her in.

Anna nodded, but before entering, she looked back at the situation downstairs. Her expression showed not just helplessness, but also concern.

Wendy closed the door and faced Anna. She didn't say much and just silently poured a glass of water and placed it in front of Anna. "Mom, have some water."
