Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1345 New Clues

With the current situation in Nicole's mind, her motivation seemed to have been rekindled. She stood up and started to exercise, only to notice Chloe's gaze fixed on her.

"What's wrong?" Nicole blinked her eyes and asked in confusion.

She also looked at herself, but there was nothing strange about her appearance. Why was Chloe staring at her like that?

"Nicole, you've been hiding it quite well, huh?"

Chloe, leaning against the side, tapped her fingers in a rhythmless manner on the tabletop and teased Nicole with a hint of playfulness in her tone.

She truly hadn't expected that Nicole had such a big plan hidden away, and she didn't notice anything amiss at all.

Nicole suddenly realized what she had just said. She had completely forgotten that Chloe was also here.

"Erm... Chloe, are you hungry? Let's go grab something to eat."

Nicole attempted to shift the conversation as she did not want Chloe to continue focusing on this topic and worry about her. However, it seemed that Chloe wasn't going to allow her to change the subject so easily.

"Nicole, spill it now. Do you have any other secrets you're keeping from me?"

Upon seeing Nicole's attempt to change the topic, she didn't give Nicole a chance and pressed on.

Nicole quickly raised both hands when she heard this and said, "Rest assured, Chloe. I'm not hiding anything from you guys anymore."

While Chloe and Roxanna usually respected Nicole and followed her decisions, everything changed on the day Nicole recovered from her illness. Nicole couldn't keep anything hidden from them anymore, especially considering she had met Evelyn without their knowledge after being afflicted by the voodoo.

They later found out that Evelyn was behind the voodoo, and it was her audacious attitude that gave it away.

They were greatly displeased with that.

"Nicole, there will not be a next time." Chloe took a few steps back as if she was letting Nicole off the hook, but she still warned Nicole.

Nicole hurriedly nodded in agreement. Chloe was rather intimidating in her current state.

Upon seeing this, Chloe finally sat back in her seat and appeared somewhat satisfied yet melancholic.

She was contemplating that if Nicole hadn't revealed this matter, would Nicole have had to wait until the end for her to figure it out on her own?

If so, it would have certainly caused significant turmoil. During this period, Nicole must have endured a lot of hardships.

Chloe didn't want Nicole to suffer so much.

Upon seeing Chloe's reaction, Nicole quickly sat down next to her, patted her on the shoulder, and said, "Chloe, don't worry. After the incident with the voodoo last time, I won't use my life as a gamble anymore."

"Are you seriously bringing that up now, Nicole?" Chloe was getting mad at the mention of this. Voodoos themselves were already difficult to deal with, not to mention Nicole had been directly affected by the supreme voodoo bug's voodoo. Who could endure that? Besides...

They later found out that Evelyn was behind the voodoo, and it was her audacious attitude that gave it away.

Tears welled up in Chloe's eyes. Nicole was on the brink of death then, and if it weren't for Albert's timely intervention, she might not have made it.
