Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1155 Divorce Nicole

The air was saturated with the strong odor of blood. Colton struggled to suppress the voodoo bugs in his body, but they started growing restless the moment they sensed the scent.

Despite his attempts to suppress it through sheer willpower, the pervasive smell of blood overwhelmed him. Then, a metallic tang invaded his mouth, followed by his eyes slowly turning red.

Evelyn observed Colton's condition and couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. She pleaded, "Collie, please stop resisting. Be with me, and you won't suffer like this."

Alas, he lowered his head as he gasped slightly and retorted through clenched teeth, "In your dreams!"

Evelyn's heart sank when she realized that even in such agony, Colton refused to be with her.

As she got closer, the rusty smell of blood intensified, leading Colton to be on the verge of succumbing to the voodoo bug; veins began to bulge in his forehead, and his face gradually turned crimson. Though his rationality insisted that he could withstand it, the influence of the voodoo bug compelled him to involuntarily draw closer to Evelyn.

Evelyn made a decisive move the minute she sensed Colton's reluctance by raising her blood-stained hand and approaching his face. He tried to evade her when she pressed the blood against his lips. Alas, his body seemed immobilized like it was held by an unseen force. A wave of the blood's aroma flowed into his mouth, instantly relaxing his previously tense state. The determination in his eyes faded, leaving him in a dazed state.

She suppressed her excitement as she gazed at Colton with anticipation and softly inquired, "Collie, can you hear me?"

"I can," Colton replied slowly.

Evelyn's excitement peaked as she gently reached out to touch Colton's face, who offered no resistance and simply allowed her to do as she wished. When she witnessed Colton's newfound obedience, she could no longer contain her excitement. So, she anxiously questioned, "Collie, do you like me?"

"I do." Colton nodded with a vacant expression, resembling a marionette controlled by strings.

Her excitement surged even higher. She had never envisioned a day when Colton would confess his affection for her. She was so overwhelmed with emotion that her hands trembled while she pleaded, "Collie, divorce Nicole and be with me, alright?"

"Alright." Colton nodded again.

Just as Evelyn was swept away by her delight, Nicole regained consciousness inside the car. When she overheard Evelyn's words while still in the vehicle, she forced herself to remain conscious and rose to her feet. Then, she immediately hurried to Colton when she saw the scene unfolding before her.

However, at that moment, Colton's gaze proved that he had already completely lost his awareness, causing Nicole to panic. She gently tapped his face, pleading, "Colton, wake up. Wake up."

Colton remained completely unresponsive.
