Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 1023

Chapter 1023 Rita’s Birthday

Since Nicole had gradually recovered, she could be discharged in two days.

Nicole missed Hayden and wanted to visit him, but the wound on her face had begun to scab over, so he would notice it immediately when he saw her.

Seeing how dispirited Nicole was, Colton suggested she wear a mask.

"Can that stop Hayden from finding out?" She touched her face while asking as she didn't think her son would be that easily fooled.

"Just find a simple excuse. I'm sure Hayden wouldn't doubt your words," Colton assured her confidently.

His son already knew about Nicole getting hurt. Them visiting him now was just par for the course, so Hayden wouldn't deliberately expose them.

Though she felt hesitant, she had been lying in bed and hadn't seen her son in a long while, and she was worried about him even though she knew he was cured.

In the end, she gave in and asked Colton to bring her a mask that covered most of her face. Then, she went to visit her son.

When Hayden saw Nicole coming in, his eyes lit up and curved into crescents. He giggled and threw himself into her arms while whining, "Mom, you haven't come to see me in a long time. I almost thought you forgot about me."

Nicole felt her heart tightening, and she quickly pulled him into her embrace while assuring him, "No way would I forget about you. I was just a little busy. Anyway, aren't I here now?"

Hayden looked at her with his big eyes that were filled with grievance. "Hmph! At least you care enough to come and visit me."

A trace of resignation flashed across Nicole's eyes as she reached over and pulled her son back into her embrace. Then, she gently caressed and comforted him.

When Hayden looked up, he saw the mask on Nicole's face and frowned, asking, "Mom, why are you wearing a mask?"

"I…" Nicole was about to explain, but Hayden gave her a reason.

"Mom, are you going to a masquerade ball or something? You look quite good in this." Hayden pretended not to know and commented.
