Chapter 422 Am I Disturbing You Two?
At first, Nicole was stunned. Then, she composed herself and scanned her eyes past Colton and Queenie while standing at the door. “Am I disturbing you two?” she asked with a chuckle.
With his bloodshot eyes, he stared at her as he regained his sobriety, hissing through gritted teeth, “Why aren’t you helping me get this disgusting woman off me?”
When Nicole finally noticed the pained look on his face, she finally understood that things were not right because his face was as bright as a monkey’s ass now. Therefore, she reckoned that he must have been drugged.
In the meantime, Queenie was on top of him and wasn’t doing any better, either, because she had drugged herself. Some of the powder had landed on her skin, and the effects were more aggressive.
Even though she knew that someone had come into the room, she didn’t stop what she was doing and almost ripped Colton’s clothes off him. Fortunately for Colton, he regained his senses and pushed her onto the floor once again.
Queenie still seemed to be in a daze despite falling to the floor and landing on her butt.
Nicole stepped forward and frowned at Colton’s flushed face before turning to Queenie on the floor. The drug’s effects seem to be rather severe.
Dizziness hammered Colton’s head, and his tall and big frame swayed about, almost toppling over. Luckily, Nicole reacted quickly and caught him.
“Are you alright?” Right after asking that question, Nicole regretted it because, from how he looked, he was clearly far from alright.
He couldn’t answer her as he gasped for air and took in her light scent, which was different from Queenie’s. It was a light fragrance that wafted around the tips of his nose, tempting him.
On the floor, Queenie was rendered weak and useless due to the drug. Still, she mustered enough energy to glare at Nicole with daggers in her eyes. Why? Why is it Nicole every time? This woman is wrecking my plans all the time! Without her, I would have succeeded today.
Overwhelming hatred blinded her eyes, and her vision even turned blurry. Gradually, she lost sight of the people in the room and could only mutter obsessively, “Colton… Colton…”
Nicole knitted her brows at the sight of her and was a little lost at the situation. Eventually, she turned to Colton and asked, “What do you plan to do?”
He clenched his jaw, and the heat tremors in his body made it tough for him to hold himself together. “My room!”
Nicole pulled him up, and even though he was still dressed, she could feel him burning through his clothes.
Although she was in the medical field, she had no experience with illegal aphrodisiacs. Regardless, after she thought about the current situation, she decided to call Harvey over.
Yet, when she was about to call him, Colton stopped her, and his voice was trembling as he breathed heavily. “It’s Grandpa’s birthday today. We can’t afford to make a mess of things today.”
Nicole couldn’t help but laugh, giving him a once-over and saying, “Colton Gardner, given your condition now, if you don’t take care of it as quickly as possible, you may actually die. Even if you don’t, you might lose your virility for the rest of your life.”
Colton’s head hung weakly as his slightly long hair hid his eyes, which were brimming with murderous intent.
He slowly spat out each word in a hoarse voice, “Why don’t you take care of it for me, Nicole?”
As soon as she heard his proposal, she froze and took a few steps backward. Then, she snapped her head the other way and rebuked, “Are you kidding me?”
For a long while, he stared at her, keeping his last shard of rationale before turning into the bathroom.
When Nicole saw how irresponsible he was acting, she felt highly uneasy and gave Harvey a call.
When Harvey picked up her call and heard about what happened, his first reaction was, “Damn it! Are you guys serious? Why are you always getting into a mess like this?”
A helpless Nicole said severely, “This concerns life and death. Just tell me what to do!”
