Chapter 1355 I’m Full
A strange silence suddenly enveloped the room.
Sitting at a distance, Wendy dared not touch the delicious food before her. She swallowed nervously while waiting
for whatever else Colton had to say. I already relented, so what else could he do to me? I'm his younger sister,
anyway, so he has no other options.
Seeing that she had relented, Colton suddenly became aware of his own attitude. His expression softened, and so
did his voice. "Are you done?"
"Yeah, I'm full," replied Wendy. In reality, she hadn't eaten enough, but the fuss Colton made caused her to lose her
appetite all of a sudden.
Colton looked darkly at her for a long time before getting out to leave the private room.

back in a moment, so she sat there quietly without touching anything. He'll be back after finishing whatever he
wanted to do, anyway. No, wait a minute. Suddenly, a realization struck her. Could he have gone to see Nicole? A
dreadful thought crept into her mind. The more she thought about it, the more convinced she became that her
guess was right. She couldn't be bothered anymore; she rushed out of the room without the slightest hesitation.
Colton's private room wasn't far from Nicole's, but on the way, he had to pass by the spot where the waiter was
stationed.
Just as Wendy got there, she saw Colton's tall figure. He seemed to be doing something, leaning slightly forward
with his eyes fixed upon the tablet on the table while casually tapping away. Seeing his casual demeanor, she
couldn't help but swear under her breath, "He's so gentle with outsiders, but I've never seen him being so gentle
with his own sister!" What made her even more disgruntled was that he was so gentle with a man, which left her
frustrated.
Perhaps having heard her quiet complaint, Colton looked back just in time to meet her angry gaze. "What are you
doing out here?"
The moment Wendy heard this, the anger within her subsided. She looked aside and realized that he was actually
ordering food. "Aren't we done eating?" she asked, pointing at the menu he had blocked from view earlier.
Glancing at the menu, Colton pushed it further inside and explained, "You'll definitely be hungry later, so I'm getting
some food ready in advance for you." Naturally, he knew what his sister was thinking. He just wanted to prevent her
from knocking on his door in the middle of the night and disturbing his sleep.
"That's pretty nice of you," remarked Wendy with a nod. In her heart, she was somewhat moved, but that was all.
There's absolutely nothing more than that! It's not my fault that he'd rather be gentle with a strange man than his
own sister! "Hi, sis—" she said before looking at Colton beside her. At once, she corrected herself, saying, "Nicole,
are you guys done eating?"

Coming to his senses, Colton saw the approaching group; his hands paused when he saw Nicole and Kendrick
standing side by side.
"Yeah. Are you done eating too?" Nicole looked at Wendy with tenderness in her eyes.
It was precisely this tenderness that infuriated Colton more and more. He wondered if she had shown such
tenderness to anyone else.
"Uh, yeah." Sensing that Colton wasn't in the best mood, Wendy hurriedly changed the subject. "Well, Nicole, I've
got to go. Let's have dinner together when there's an opportunity," she said. Then, she turned to look at Colton,
whispering, "Colton, let's go." After that, she fled without waiting for his reply. Screw it. Saving myself is the priority
here.
Colton stared darkly at Nicole for a long time before turning to leave. She isn't my Nicole anymore, and I should
learn to let go.
Kendrick had been observing Colton the whole time. He was certain that Colton still had feelings for Nicole, though
he had been suppressing them.
