Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1313

Chapter 1313 Ending Their Partnership

The cover of darkness was a fitting cloak for those with hidden agendas; it was the realm of the wicked who thrived

under the shroud of night.

Meanwhile, Evelyn and Ryan's conversation continued over the phone, neither showing any inclination to bring it to

an end just yet.

"Nicole has left the country, Mr. Yael." Her lips pursed as she delivered the unexpected news. The revelation had

also taken her by surprise, as she had anticipated Nicole would come after her once the latter had resolved the

recent matters. Still, she had never expected Nicole would choose to flee to a different country without kicking up a

fuss.

"What did you say?" He was slightly taken aback. Why would someone like Nicole relinquish her grip on Evelyn so

easily? This is an unexpected turn of events! So, Nicole genuinely loves Colton, huh? She would even sacrifice

herself without showing the slightest bit of reluctance or hesitation. Still, I wonder how that man will react if he finds

out about this.

"There's one more thing, Mr. Yael, and I hope you'll be wise enough to make the right decision."

Before Ryan could crystallize his strategy, Evelyn's voice interjected again. A frown etched across his face,

displeased by the interruption. How dare she talk to me like that?

"You had promised to get rid of Nicole, Mr. Yael, but you didn't. Meanwhile, I've provided you with plenty of

information. How are we going to settle this score?" Her determination showed no signs of wavering.

"You're probably the only one who can treat the poison from the supreme voodoo bug, right? Despite someone on

the brink of death miraculously returning to life, I didn't even demand anything from you, Mr. Yael." Her tone had

turned less amiable and more menacing. She no longer held trust in this man. For days, her sole focus had been on

gaining Colton's attention. Now, with a moment of freedom, she was set to settle the score with Ryan.

"Hah. That has nothing to do with me, Miss Wrenn. We, the Yaels, only cultivate voodoo bugs. We don't prepare

antidotes. Kindly get your facts straight," he retorted with a sneer, countering her accusation. He knew he wasn't

the one who did it and had a strong suspicion about the true culprit.

His response rendered her speechless. He's right. Back then… Oh, whatever. Since Nicole's out of the country, she's

no longer a threat to my relationship with Colton. I'm guessing she won't try and get even with me over the incident

with the supreme voodoo bug. She doesn't even have any evidence against me anyway. At this thought, a smug

smile graced her lips. "Sorry about that, Mr. Yael, for my overly aggressive stance. From the looks of it now, it

seems like our partnership has reached its conclusion. I hope we won't have to work together again."

Evelyn ended the call without giving Ryan a chance to respond. I'm with Colton now. We have a child together. Why

would I continue working with Ryan at the risk of Colton finding out about it?

As he registered what was happening, the dial tone was the only sound he heard. Then, he snorted dismissively and

set his phone aside. This woman thinks she can just walk away after getting everything she wants, huh? Well, she

may have achieved her goals, but I haven't. As for the supreme voodoo bug, I'm eighty percent sure it's that person

who did it. His gaze turned dark as he stared out the window, almost as if seeking answers from the view. Why

would I allow this woman to get her way just like this? Even from the beginning, I have never been sincere about

working with her. Someone like her is unworthy of being equal partners with me.

After ending the call, Evelyn swiftly erased all traces of communication with Ryan, even wiping their text exchanges.

It was as if their paths had never intersected. "Phew!" With her actions complete, she released a lengthy exhale. I

can finally focus on building a happy life with Colton now.
