Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 721

Chapter 721

Alvin's words inspired Sasha. Blinking her eyes, she let the realization dawn on her. He's right. No matter Colton's attitude, it can't change the fact that I saved his life. Thus, he's in debt to me. I should seize the opportunity and turn it to my advantage.

"You're right." As joy flashed across her face, she nodded and smiled in determination. "What matters now is for me to recover."

Since she had figured it out by herself, he decided not to say anything more.

…

After Colton and Nicole got off the plane, they immediately headed for the Gardner Residence.

She was hoping to earn Benedict's trust before she began to investigate the truth.

To her surprise, Olivia was the one she first saw rather than Benedict when the pair stepped into the house.

A deep frown formed between Olivia's brows when she saw Nicole. Before anyone could respond, Olivia strode over to them without hesitation and struck the other woman's face with a hard slap.

As Olivia used all her strength in the blow, the sound of the slap reverberated through the living room.

Nicole's head had turned to the side due to the force, and the tingling pain spread on her face. She covered the spot with one hand, quickly registering the situation.

Olivia already raised her hand for another blow when Nicole was about to explain. Fortunately, Colton reacted in time and held Olivia's wrist to stop his aunt.

Grabbing her wrist with one hand, he used another hand to drag Nicole and hid her behind him.

Nicole could hear the buzz in her head as she was slapped hard. After taking her time to recover, she looked up and met Olivia's eyes as she stated, "I'm here today to explain on my mother's behalf."

Olivia wasn't pleased by the way Colton had grabbed her wrist. As a flicker of hatred shone beneath her eyes, she sneered at Nicole's attempt and glared daggers at the other woman. "Don't even try that. Madeline ran over my mother and killed her. I won't let her off that easily!"

Even though Olivia had withdrawn her hand, she wasn't backing down.

Pursing her lips, Nicole insisted on her stance. "I'll vouch for my mother. She would never do such a thing. Therefore, I'll do my best to find out the truth."
