Fell in Love with Mr.Right at The Wrong Time novel Chapter 53

Colton couldn't help but frown slightly as he looked at the person before him. He had heard during the mid-winter holiday that Joseph had accosted Nicole at her mother's grave. Even though he didn't know what the two had talked about in the hotel after that, Nicole's face was pale when she left the hotel, which was why he had said those words at the dining table just now. "What are you doing at Gardner Corporation?" He stepped forward slightly and happened to stand in front of Nicole.

Joseph was somewhat afraid deep down when he saw Colton, for he didn't expect Nicole to be with him. Feigning composure at once, he said respectfully with a smile, "What a coincidence, President Gardner! I'm here to talk to Miss Anderson."

"She's not available," Colton refused bluntly. His tall figure exuded a terrifyingly chilly aura even when he was merely standing there doing nothing.

Seeing how Colton turned him down so quickly, Joseph looked slightly embarrassed. However, he came well-prepared this time. Turning his gaze to Nicole, he produced a report in his hand, saying, "Miss Anderson, I've got a report in my hand, which I obtained after meeting you last time. I think you'd like

to take a look at it too."

The air turned heavy all of a sudden, and Nicole's heart shuddered involuntarily when her gaze fell upon the report Joseph was holding. She pursed her lips as her hands clenched into fists by her sides.

Seeing Nicole's ghastly expression, Colton frowned slightly and asked with concern, "Nicole, are you alright?"

Luckily, Nicole had applied makeup before leaving home today. Even if she looked pale at the moment, no one could notice it. In an attempt to make her voice sound steadier, she lowered her voice, saying, "It's okay, President Gardner. It's about something private between him and me. Let me deal with it first."

Colton glanced at Nicole before darting another look at Joseph. His black eyes darkened slightly, but he nonetheless stepped aside to give way to Joseph. Before he left, he said, "Just call me if there's anything. I'll fix it."

On the white paper were words printed in black ink. At the bottom of the paper, though, there was a section where words were printed in scarlet. The words, which Nicole found offensive, read, 'Paternity Confirmed.'

Nicole felt as though she was going to stop breathing.

She didn't expect that Joseph would actually get the paternity test done, but she soon kept herself from trembling. With a chilly expression, she looked up and tossed the report into his arms with a sneer. "Do you think I'm gonna believe you with this forged paternity test report in your hands?"

Joseph was inwardly confident as he held the report in his hands. He had personally obtained this report from the hospital, and when he saw the words 'paternity confirmed' on it, he was also in disbelief. He never thought that he would have a son five years ago with Lisa, the Chief Designer of F&M Apparel. With that, a connection was quickly established between the two previously unrelated people, and Mann Clothing Co. could be saved once again.
