Chapter 987 Concern
Colton noticed the annoyance in his voice, but he said nothing. "I see. Keep a close eye. I'll be there by noon
tomorrow. Don't tell Nicole. She's not in the best state, so I don't want her to worry."
Roger snickered, but he said nothing. "You're such a worrywart."
Colton hung up and checked on Nicole. She had fallen asleep, and it seemed like a good sleep. She'd been sleeping
well since she got pregnant. These days, she spent her days eating and sleeping, and her mental state wasn't the
best it was. He asked some doctors about it, and they said it was normal. Some people would have that reaction
during pregnancy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven in her sleep, Nicole noticed someone staring at her. She woke up groggily and saw Colton standing in front of
her bed. She half-opened her eyes and frowned at Colton. "What is it? Did something happen?" Her voice was
sleepy, and she slowly pushed herself up, yawning as she rubbed her belly.
"Just here to see you. Did I wake you up?" Colton whispered as he stared at Nicole. Her physiological and
psychological changes made her look sick, and he was worried. He touched her cheek, and it felt soft.
"I'm alright." She shook her head and yawned again, tears glistening at the corner of her eyes. She had been sleepy
lately, and she spent most of her days asleep, though she didn't sleep long every session. I think I fell asleep at six
after the meal. She scratched her head and looked at the time. Oh, it's already nine. It's been a while.

"I have work to do tomorrow. You stay here and don't run around," said Colton.
Nicole thought that was true. After all, he'd been staying with her for days. He was the president of a big company,
so he probably set aside work for her. "I'm not a kid. You don't have to worry about me. Just go to work." Nicole felt
weak, so she leaned on her bed and yawned.
She's like a cat. Colton chuckled and pinched her cheek. "You're pregnant now. You can't move around, and the
Undercity is coming after you. I can't relax."
Nicole waved his hand away and frowned. "I know."
She's impatient. Colton said, "You're the owner of Lowe now. Not many know about that, but once they do, you'll be
in danger. This villa is safe. It's equipped with state-of-the-art defense systems. Only when you're here can I be at
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmease."
This was a wealthy district. Only the rich and powerful could enter this area. There were twenty-four-hour patrols,
and the anti-theft and defense systems were top-notch. As long as the enemies didn't use heavy-duty weapons,
they couldn't breach this place.
"I know." She waved him down in frustration. "I'm not a kid anymore. You go to work." He's getting more paranoid
lately.
Colton looked at her and said nothing. He tucked her in and smiled. "Get some rest. I'll be going now, Nicky."
"Sure." Nicole stared down and lay on her bed. Colton left without saying a word. She saw him off, and then she was
reminded of what she said, then her ears turned red.
