Chapter 217 Do It Then
“Firstly, this jewelry is noble in and of itself. I’m afraid that once news gets out, many people will be eyeing it.
Secondly, we should leave the surprise until Wendy’s birthday in order to impress everyone,” Nicole explained.
She then paused for a few seconds before continuing, “Furthermore, this jewelry is still in Triton Studio. It will take
about a week to arrive. I can’t guarantee that everything will go smoothly; thus, it’s better for Director Schmidt to
continue designing hers just in case something goes wrong.”
Seeing that Nicole was so thoughtful, Anna nodded and said in a satisfied tone, “You’re so thoughtful, Nicole. We’ll
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgo ahead with what you said, then.”
Nicole smilingly nodded. “Sure. I’ll make the dress once I go back.”
Wendy was overjoyed to know that she could wear Nicole’s design. Happily, she pulled her chair closer and said,
“Miss Nicole, I loved your design the moment I saw it! Your design is so and I’ve never worn anything like it
before!”
Nicole simply smiled warmly in response to Wendy’s compliment. “It’s all part of my job.”
After settling down on Wendy’s dress for her birthday, Anna moved on to the serious business.
When she raised her head and looked at Nicole, her smile had vanished.
Nicole could almost predict what Anna was going to say and had already mentally prepared all of her responses.
“Nicole, I’ve got one more thing to ask you.” Anna looked at her calmly.
Nicole, too, maintained her calm demeanor. “Just ask whatever you want, Mrs. Gardner,” she replied with a nod.
Anna’s eyes flickered and she said tactfully, “It’s actually not a big deal. Yesterday, I found a DNA paternity test
report in Colton’s car.”
Even a moron could figure out what Anna was saying, let alone someone as intelligent as Nicole.
Nicole lowered her gaze and took a glance at the table in front of her. “Mrs. Gardner—” She smiled. “—I think you
won’t believe me now if I say Hayden isn’t Colton’s child.”
Looking at Nicole, Anna assumed Nicole was finally admitting it.
However, Nicole went on, “Since you don’t believe President Gardner and my explanation no matter what we say,
the best option now is to let you see it for yourself. Mrs. Gardner, why don’t you find a doctor of your choice and
have a DNA paternity test performed on Colton and Hayden on the spot?”
Such a suggestion was exactly what Anna desired. As she was thinking the same thing in her heart, she nodded and
said, “My nephew is a doctor and he will be coming for Wendy’s birthday. I’ll ask him to come earlier to conduct the
test for them. What do you think, Nicole?”
Nicole did not have any objection to that. The entire incident arose because of her. Now that Anna had
misunderstood, it was her responsibility to clear things up and stop troubling Colton.
“I’ll leave it to you, Mrs. Gardner,” Nicole replied gently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe had nothing to be afraid of since Hayden wasn’t Colton’s son. Nicole thought that being forthright could also
dispel some of Anna’s doubts.
And that was true. Seeing Nicole’s forthright demeanor, Anna became suspicious, as Nicole appeared to be
confident that her son had no relationship with Colton.
But her suspicions vanished fast. Whatever the truth was, it would be clear after the outcome was revealed.
“Sure.” Anna stood up and nodded. “I’ll trouble you with Wendy’s matters, then.”
Nicole stood up as well. “No worries. This is what I should do,” she said humbly.
After her words, she turned around to face Wendy and said, “Don’t tell anyone about the jewelry, Wendy. Though
Triton Studio agreed to lend that to me, I’m afraid that things may change and you’ll be embarrassed if it is not
here. We can talk about it when it arrives.”
