Chapter 75 Zachary, Nicole Was Drugged
Harvey quickly examined Nicole.
When he heard Colton’s description on the phone earlier, he had already made preparations in advance.
Harvey began to prescribe the medicine and Nicole’s complexion finally improved after one injection.
After administering the injection, he turned his head to look at Colton and asked with a frown, “What the hell is going on? Why did my sister-in-law become like this?”
Seeing that Nicole’s condition had improved and the flush on her face had gradually dissipated, Colton breathed a sigh of relief. “Come with me.”
Upon saying that, he dragged Harvey out without even waiting to see whether Harvey was willing to follow.
When they went out, they saw Annie arriving with a bowl of soup. Colton left her an order while saying, “Annie, go in and help her change into a set of clean clothes.”
When she looked at the room that was originally Colton’s, she wanted to say something but held her tongue in the end. She merely nodded and answered, “All right.”
After Harvey was pulled out by Colton, he still had a puzzled look. Why did Nicole become like this? Most importantly, she was even at Colton’s house!
“What’s going on?” Not long after they walked out, Colton immediately asked.
“What do you mean by that?” Harvey looked at the man’s dark expression and didn’t understand the current situation. In fact, he was about to ask why Nicole was at Colton’s house but was interrogated instead.
“Why did you call Nicole ‘sister-in-law’?” Colton’s dark eyes bore into Harvey.
Harvey pieced the puzzle together when he saw Colton’s reaction and asked in shock, “D-Don’t tell me you have your eyes on my sister-in-law?!”
Colton fell silent. Yes, if he didn’t have a crush on Nicole, why would he have cared who she was with?
However, when did he start liking her? Why couldn’t he remember it at all?
“Nothing. I just wanted to know,” he denied, not admitting the truth.
Upon hearing that Colton didn’t have such intentions, Harvey let out a sigh of relief and began to explain, “My brother is Zachary Yates. Although we come from different mothers, we have an excellent relationship. When I was abroad, I even met Nicole a few times.”
……
Zachary Yates…
Although Colton had known that F&M Apparel’s president, Zachary Yates, had the hots for Nicole, it didn’t feel nice to hear the truth from someone else.
Colton’s heart swelled with displeasure. Without saying anything else, he immediately grabbed Harvey and dragged him downstairs.
Before Harvey could react, he saw Colton dragging him and asked in confusion, “What’s wrong? Is there anything else?”
Colton dragged him directly to the door and held the door frame with his long, skeletal fingers, responding, “There’s nothing else. You may leave now.”
Huh? Just as Harvey was about to open his mouth to say something else, the door suddenly shut on him and locked him out.
“Colton Gardner! You still haven’t told me why my sister-in-law is at your house in this state!” Harvey slammed on the door.
Colton called me over in the middle of the night, but he is just leaving me like this now?
Inside the house, Colton replied in a hostile tone, “Keep knocking if you want me to chop off your hands.”
His words effectively silenced Harvey in an instant. After all, Colton was indeed capable of doing such a thing.
Harvey stared at the tightly shut door as there was probably no chance for him to head inside today. After standing by the door and mulling it over, he ended up pulling out his phone to give Zachary a call.
Zachary, who was already swamped with family issues, rubbed his eyebrows when he saw Harvey calling. Still, he picked up the phone and asked gently, “What’s wrong, Harvey?”
“Zachary, I saw Nicole in Colton’s house. Most importantly, she was drugged,” Harvey said seriously.
