Chapter 1264 Zachary’s Revelation
The three of them stood facing each other for a long time. Roxanna looked at Chloe and then at Zachary beside her
before letting out a sigh.
"As for the specifics, we don't know either. We only know that Nicole went out a few days ago and came back with a
voodoo bug in her. It's not an ordinary voodoo bug," Roxanna said, closing her eyes tightly as if summoning great
courage.
Zachary looked at Roxanna in shock. He knew what a voodoo bug was, but he hadn't expected such a potent
voodoo bug to be in Nicole.
"I remember this voodoo bug can be eliminated. Aren't you both skilled in medicine? Can't you help?" Zachary
pondered and asked after suddenly having an idea.
Chloe shook her head in despair. "It's impossible. The voodoo bug in Nicole is a supreme voodoo bug, the most

domineering type. There's no known cure for it, and a person can only survive for a month, but..."
"But what?" Zachary frowned.
Roxanna sighed. "Yes, because of various reasons, Nicole won't live beyond a month, and it's even more likely that
she won't make it through a week."
Zachary gasped at the revelation. Why had things suddenly taken such a dire turn? He had only gone abroad for a
short while, and so much had happened to Nicole in his absence.
Only earlier in the day, she had brimmed with vitality. Zachary remembered Nicole's radiant complexion when
Colton paid a visit.
"Could the reason for the sudden decrease in time be related to her rosy complexion today? Did she use some kind
of special medicine so that Colton would believe that her feelings for me are genuine? So that she can successfully
deceive him?" Zachary blurted out his speculation.
Roxanna paused for a moment and then nodded as she was surprised by his insight.
However, it was also true that given how much Nicole loved Colton, these possibilities could very well manifest in

her actions. It wasn't that hard to guess.
Now that his suspicion was confirmed, Zachary brushed past Roxanna and Chloe and left in a daze.
In fact, Zachary wasn't surprised. Nicole loved Colton so much. If there hadn't been an urgent reason, why would
she treat Colton like this? It was just that he never anticipated that Nicole would be willing to sacrifice her own life
for this.
Chloe watched Zachary's departing figure, sighing helplessly. She turned to Roxanna and said, "I'll go check on
Nicole first. I'll leave the matters in the research center to you."
Roxanna nodded and watched as Chloe entered Nicole's room, then she turned and left. With Nicole's condition
deteriorating, she needed to ensure the research center ran smoothly without any hitches.
As night fell, the full moon hung high in the sky.
Ever since leaving the research center, Colton had been walking along the road, not knowing where to go. With

Nicole gone, he felt lost, unsure of the path ahead.
Evelyn rubbed her sore ankle and watched Colton get farther and farther away. Gritting her teeth, she hurried to
catch up to him. "Colton, let's go home. We've been walking for almost a day."
Yes, they had been walking for almost a day, all because of Nicole. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't have needed to
walk this long.
Thinking about this, Evelyn unconsciously blamed everything on Nicole, as if she had forgotten that she had
conspired with Ryan to plant a voodoo in Nicole in the first place.
Colton moved like a zombie, not paying any attention to what Evelyn was saying behind him. Right now, there was
only one person who could make him turn around immediately.
That person was Nicole.
Evelyn endured the pain in her ankle. "Colton, I'm hungry, and the child in my stomach must be hungry too. Why
don't we get something to eat?"
She had long given up on walking. She thought this was a rare opportunity, and if she handled it well, she could
make Colton realize her feelings. Then, no matter what Nicole did or how she behaved, Colton wouldn't change his
mind.
That way, Colton would belong to her alone.
