Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 217

Chapter 217 Do It Then

“Firstly, this jewelry is noble in and of itself. I’m afraid that once news gets out, many people will be eyeing it. Secondly, we should leave the surprise until Wendy’s birthday in order to impress everyone,” Nicole explained.

She then paused for a few seconds before continuing, “Furthermore, this jewelry is still in Triton Studio. It will take about a week to arrive. I can’t guarantee that everything will go smoothly; thus, it’s better for Director Schmidt to continue designing hers just in case something goes wrong.”

Seeing that Nicole was so thoughtful, Anna nodded and said in a satisfied tone, “You’re so thoughtful, Nicole. We’ll go ahead with what you said, then.”

Nicole smilingly nodded. “Sure. I’ll make the dress once I go back.”

Wendy was overjoyed to know that she could wear Nicole’s design. Happily, she pulled her chair closer and said, “Miss Nicole, I loved your design the moment I saw it! Your design is so novel and I’ve never worn anything like it before!”

Nicole simply smiled warmly in response to Wendy’s compliment. “It’s all part of my job.”

After settling down on Wendy’s dress for her birthday, Anna moved on to the serious business.

When she raised her head and looked at Nicole, her smile had vanished.

Nicole could almost predict what Anna was going to say and had already mentally prepared all of her responses.

“Nicole, I’ve got one more thing to ask you.” Anna looked at her calmly.

Nicole, too, maintained her calm demeanor. “Just ask whatever you want, Mrs. Gardner,” she replied with a nod.

Anna’s eyes flickered and she said tactfully, “It’s actually not a big deal. Yesterday, I found a DNA paternity test report in Colton’s car.”

She had nothing to be afraid of since Hayden wasn’t Colton’s son. Nicole thought that being forthright could also dispel some of Anna’s doubts.

And that was true. Seeing Nicole’s forthright demeanor, Anna became suspicious, as Nicole appeared to be confident that her son had no relationship with Colton.

But her suspicions vanished fast. Whatever the truth was, it would be clear after the outcome was revealed.

“Sure.” Anna stood up and nodded. “I’ll trouble you with Wendy’s matters, then.”

Nicole stood up as well. “No worries. This is what I should do,” she said humbly.

After her words, she turned around to face Wendy and said, “Don’t tell anyone about the jewelry, Wendy. Though Triton Studio agreed to lend that to me, I’m afraid that things may change and you’ll be embarrassed if it is not here. We can talk about it when it arrives.”
