Chapter 269 Help Me Check

Hayden stared at Nicole’s back for a long time before he looked away. The smile on his face was gone, and then he turned to look at Whitney. “I will rest in my room. I think something happened to Mom. Go ask her about it and tell me later.”

Looking at his clever demeanor, Whitney couldn’t help but say, “Miss Nicole doesn’t want to tell you because she doesn’t want you to worry. Why are you so persistent in knowing what took place, you little brat?”

Hayden’s tender face instantly became dark. He put his hands in his pockets and said coolly, “No one can make Mom sad. If someone does, I will eradicate them.”

His voice and tone were utterly different from that of a four-year-old child. Even Whitney felt a chill go down her spine.

It’s terrifying when this little brat threatens people.

In the end, she nodded and said, “Fine, I understand. I’ll take you back to your room to rest. Then, I’ll ask Miss Nicole what happened.”

The mother-son duo are both the same. They hide their concern and pretend to be happy before each other, but do their best for each other in private.

Such a pity for the errand girl like me.

Whitney sent Hayden upstairs and went to Nicole’s room.

When Whitney entered the room, she found the lights were not turned on. When she got closer, she heard sobbing sounds.

Whitney hurriedly turned on the light and found Nicole sitting on the ground, holding her head in her knees while sobbing softly.

Whitney was stunned, as she had never seen Nicole being this fragile since Whitney joined F&M Apparel years ago. In the end, Whitney squatted down and hugged Nicole.

Nicole felt a warm embrace and she immediately leaned in.

She held back her tears and raised her head to look at Whitney. Her eyes were bright red.

Whitney couldn’t bear to look at Nicole, so she asked in a low voice, “Miss Nicole, what happened?”

“Mrs. Gardner did a paternity test on Colton and Hayden. They are related,” Nicole said without hiding anything.

Whitney was stunned. She knew a thing or two about what had happened before.

“Didn’t you say Hayden is Joseph’s son? Why is he Colton’s now?”

They did a test before and the result showed that Colton and Hayden were not related by blood.

Nicole shook her head. Truth was, she was clueless as well.

I had let Colton do a paternity test with Hayden earlier. However, the result was negative.

At this point, Nicole was confused.

Whitney could understand Nicole. Hayden was raised by Nicole alone. If he was taken away by the Gardner Family, it would kill Nicole.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Whitney whispered soothingly, “Miss Nicole, no matter what, Hayden is your son. No one can take him away from you.”

Nicole sniffed, sadness in her voice.

“I’m not afraid of the Gardner Family taking Hayden away. It’s just that I can’t help but cry when I think of Hayden leaving me.”

Whitney patted Nicole’s shoulder. As the chief designer of F&M Apparel, Nicole had always been confident and dazzling. She had never been so vulnerable.

“Miss Nicole, stop thinking about it. Hayden loves you, so he won’t leave you,” Whitney comforted.

Upon hearing that, Nicole pulled herself together and regained her spirit. She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said to Whitney, “Whitney, can you check the surveillance of that hotel from five years ago?”

Whitney looked at Nicole and nodded quickly. “Of course. Please be rest assured, Miss Nicole. I will look for it.”

Nicole nodded and calmed down.
