Chapter 867

Nicole wasn't expecting Evelyn to call and invite her to dinner.

However, Nicole quickly declined since anyone with common sense would sense that it was a trap.

"I apologize, Miss Wrenn. I've been quite busy recently, so I'm afraid I won't be able to join you for dinner," Nicole stated courteously but distantly.

"I trust that no matter how busy you are, you will not disregard your son," Evelyn replied softly and chuckled.

Evelyn's sloppy words tickled Nicole. So, she clenched her phone and said hoarsely, "Evelyn, what do you mean?"

Evelyn smiled provocatively and said, "Nothing much. Well, Hayden is Colton's son. Colton has custody rights as well. You see, I'm fine with Hayden staying with Colton. So, take a guess what will happen."

Nicole took a big breath when she heard that. She never thought Evelyn would have that idea.


Her fists were clenched, and her throat sounded hoarse as if something was stopping it. "Tell me what you want," Nicole said after a while.

"So, I'll see you alone at the Town Central Hotel at lunchtime today. It's my treat. What do you think?"

There was frivolity in Evelyn's words.

Nicole bit her lower lip and lowered her gaze before gritting her teeth and responding, "All right."

Nicole would never be careless with Hayden. One had to admit Evelyn was shrewd to know Nicole's worst fear.

Evelyn managed to poke at Nicole's sore spot.

Nicole rushed to the Town Central Hotel, which Evelyn had indicated where their meeting place would be.

Upon entering a nearly vacant room, Nicole found that there was only Evelyn alone inside. The table was piled high with dishes. The food was rich and fragrant.

However, Nicole had no appetite. She gazed at Evelyn, who was already seated.

Evelyn had applied makeup to hide her current expression. She leaned back in her chair with her arms folded. At Nicole's arrival, Evelyn gestured to the seat opposite her, saying, "Miss Anderson, please have a seat. I ordered several of their signature meals. Try them out."
