Chapter 840

Soon, Jackson took Evelyn away. Meanwhile, Anna looked at Colton with distress and could only use cold water to

help him cool down.

After a long time, Nicole returned with the counter-medication. Then, looking at his appearance, she said worriedly,

"Mrs. Gardner, I'm not sure about the specifics of the drug given to President Gardner. Perhaps, he needs to release

his craving, but the counter-medication I'm giving him later could relieve his discomfort."

Mrs. Gardner nodded and said, "All right. You may give him counter-medication. Let's leave this matter for now. I

must go to the Wrenn Family to find out the situation."

So, she nodded and gave him the injection. Then, she watched the redness on his face gradually dissipate. She

finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that nothing serious would happen to him. Seeing that he was fine,

Anna turned her head and said to Nicole, "Nicole, help me look after Colton here. Old Mr. Benedict had found out

about Colton's injury when we came up. So, I'll go and inform him that Colton is safe."

She looked slightly awkward and wanted to refuse, but Anna's gentle appearance made her unable to refuse. After

thinking for a while, she said, "All right."

Anna thanked her and left in a hurry.

However, Nicole didn't dare to get too close to Colton, so she simply chose the farthest place to sit, lowered her

head, and pretended to be nonchalant.

Soon, Jackson took Evalyn away. Maanwhila, Anna lookad at Colton with distrass and could only usa cold watar to

halp him cool down.

Aftar a long tima, Nicola raturnad with tha countar-madication. Than, looking at his appaaranca, sha said worriadly,

"Mrs. Gardnar, I'm not sura about tha spacifics of tha drug givan to Prasidant Gardnar. Parhaps, ha naads to ralaasa

Mrs. Gardnar noddad and said, "All right. You may giva him countar-madication. Lat's laava this mattar for now. I

must go to tha Wrann Family to find out tha situation."

So, sha noddad and gava him tha injaction. Than, sha watchad tha radnass on his faca gradually dissipata. Sha

Anna thankad har and laft in a hurry.

Howavar, Nicola didn't dara to gat too closa to Colton, so sha simply chosa tha farthast placa to sit, lowarad har

haad, and pratandad to ba nonchalant.

After he received the injection, his body gradually recovered. His mind slowly regained its senses, and he leaned

against the bed, panting slightly.

After a while, he said in a croaky voice, "Nicole, nothing happened between her and me."

His voice was hoarse as if sandpaper had scoured his throat.

When she heard that, she looked up at him. He was looking rather disheveled at that moment. Although most of the

drug's effects had worn off, his previously styled hair had become a little unkempt, and he was only wearing a suit

jacket without a shirt inside, allowing her to see his perfect abs through it.

Although the two had seen each other naked, she looked away in embarrassment. Soon, she cleared her throat and

said in a low voice, "President Gardner, you don't have to tell me about this kind of thing as it has nothing to do with

me."

Colton leaned against the bed with a smiling gaze. He was about to say something, but suddenly his face changed.

Nicole also noticed that and hurried forward to check, only to see red spots on his face again.

"Oh no," she said in a low voice and quickly held his arm to feel his pulse.

The abnormally high rate of his heartbeat was a clear warning sign. So, she extended her hand to touch his

forehead, which was excruciatingly warm.

Her gaze darkened, and she thought he would be fine after the injection, but she didn't expect the drug to be so

potent that its effects would return after a while. Then, she quickly picked up her phone and called Harvey. It took a

long time for him to pick up her call. However, he was aware of the situation and asked at once, "Did Colton get set

up again?"

She was speechless, but he did guess it right. She nodded and said, "Yes, but after I injected him with the counter-

medication you prepared previously, it didn't seem to work."

He explained, "The medicine I used before was just to counter the effects of the drug. So, if it can't be countered, it

may be because the drug this time is different."

Then, Nicole frowned as she felt the throbbing in her head and glanced at Colton, who was clenching his teeth in

pain on the bed. She had little knowledge of medicine and asked, "Is there any other method?"

"Well, how long from where you are to the hospital?" Harvey asked.

The Gould Family's place was not in the city center, so it would take half an hour to get to the nearest hospital. She

replied truthfully, "Half an hour."

Harvey smacked his lips and said, "It'll be too late. There is only one other way—help him with it."
