Chapter 293 Contacting White's Apprentices
- Nicole stopped crying after a short while. She sniffled as she thought, It's a good thing I didn't put on any makeup today. Otherwise, my face would be a mess. She reached her hand out to rub her face as she nodded. "I'm fine. I'll spend the next few days asking around for doctors who may be able to help Old Mr. Benedict."
- Colton didn't decline her offer. "Thank you for your effort, Nicole." They bumped into Anna as they were walking out, and Anna stopped in her spot when she saw Nicole's bloodshot eyes and stuffy nose. Anna gazed at Nicole for a long while before turning to glare at Colton. "What did you do, Colton? Did you make Nicole cry?"
- Colton felt utterly misunderstood at this point. He hadn't done anything, yet Anna had directly placed the blame on him. "No, Mom. I didn't—" he started explaining himself exasperatedly. However, Anna wasn't in the mood to listen to him. She simply hurried forward to grab Nicole's hand. "Nicole, if Colton did something bad to you, I'll apologize on his behalf. Please don't take his actions to heart."
