Fell in Love with Mr.Right at The Wrong Time novel Chapter 83

Joseph had caught wind of the rumor about Nicole 5 years ago. He heard that she had spent a night with a random man in exchange for money.

However, if what Queenie said was true, the man from 5 years ago would have been him.

Joseph might have no control over his lower body, but he never had the need to spend money to get a woman in his bed. As a good-looking young master from a wealthy family, there were countless women who willingly threw themselves at his feet.

"Was Nicole not the one I had s*x with 5 years ago?" Joseph asked while looking at Queenie.

Queenie was now lying in the hospital bed with no makeup on. She looked so pale she could easily pass off as someone who was on the verge of death.

Her pupils slightly trembled after hearing Joseph's question, and after swallowing the lump in her throat, she tilted her head to look at him.

"Could someone have spent money to get Nicole here because they planned to spend the night with you? Or could they have wanted to threaten you with a

child after giving birth to one?" she hypothetically asked.

Joseph's eyebrows began to crinkle together at that. He had spent countless nights with different women. So, he couldn't possibly tell what everyone's intention for getting in bed with him was.

However, if Nicole's child really did share his blood, there was no need for him to continue worrying about anything else.

"So what you're trying to say is that Nicole was the mastermind behind what happened, yes?" he asked again to reconfirm as he still couldn't understand why Nicole would do what she did.

Queenie's face fell again when she heard that name she despised and instead of answering him, she threw him another question, "Who else could it have been?"

"But why would she do that?" Joseph asked again.

"The paternity test of you and her child is already in her hands. She will use this opportunity to drag me and you down. That way, she can whip out an excuse to not let you meet the child even if you are proven to be the kid's biological father."

She briefly shut her eyes and by the time she had opened them again, they were already coated with tears threatening to fall. She then sniffled before continuing, "Nicole has always hated me and Mom. Doing something like this will be like hitting two birds with one—"

She intentionally left out the rest of the sentence as she was sure that Joseph already knew what she was trying to say.

Joseph's frown was glued on his forehead throughout the entire conversation.

Nicole finally managed to take a rest after her hectic schedule. By the time she looked at the clock, it was already past 7 in the evening. Even though she was way later than usual today, she immediately rushed home at the thought of her son being alone at home.

The first thing she saw after opening the doorto her house was Zachary's upright figure sitting on the couch. He seemed to have been reading a magazine until the moment he heard the sound of the door closing. "Nicole," he greeted as he turned to face her.

"Why are you back so soon? Didn't you say that you will be spending at least another half a month there?" Nicole chuckled as she walked forward.

Zachary's stoic face had become gentle in that instant. After putting the magazine down, he approached her while scanning her top to bottom with her eyes.

"I kept calling your phone but it went straight to the mailbox every time. I only found out that you are okay after giving Hayden a call. However, I was still worried because I didn't hear from you directly."

Feeling slightly bashful, Nicole scratched the tip of her nose and quickly explained herself. "My phone is currently under repair. I got water in it by accident. You could have just told Hayden to pass the word if you needed me. There is the house phone that I—"

However, she couldn't finish her sentence as Zachary immediately enveloped her in a bear hug.

Rendered speechless, she felt her body freeze upon contact.
