Cheat with my boyfriend best friend by Jane E.L.
Chapter 401

Chapter 401 The Affectionate Nick

Before Aaron could thank Maria, the door was knocked again. A doctor that I had never seen came in, and when she saw Maria, she even trotted for a few steps

"Maria! Mr. Morris, Mrs. Morris, I'm glad that you're here as well. Here's the analysis report from the lab. Based on the analysis of Mrs

Morris' initial admission report form, she had skin exposure to the acidic solvent at least a week ago."

I looked up at Aaron at once. A week ago? We were having a quarrel at that time. I hadn't been to the lab back then, and there hadn't been any steam leaks from the lab

Aaron looked a bit upset. Yet given Maria's presence, he simply thanked the doctor for the report

The doctor handed over the test report and added, "Well, this solvent is a bit different from the one leaked in the lab. Although this kind of solvent is also designed for the pharmaceutical industry only, it is not yet in official use. It's only available in large quantities at the Harvard Institute."

The Harvard Institute? I was shocked and felt Aaron's hand clench mine at once

When we were alone in the ward, he blurted out what I had expected, "You stayed at Nick's apartment a week ago. Does he have the solvent there?"

The doctor did not say that a history of skin

contact would aggravate my condition, but Aaron's first instinct was still to replace out why

At least it showed that he cared about me, and I should be happy about it... 1f Nick hadn't been involved. "I have never seen any solvents with Nick that are not suitable for pregnant women, and in fact, he would not have any solvent at his place at all. He knew I'd come over."

I wasn't defending Nick. I was just well aware of what kind of person Nick was

Whether out of character or professional habits, he was always very careful. Even if I wasn't pregnant, he wouldn't allow harmful solvents around me

Aaron looked me in the eye, hesitated for a few seconds, then finally sighed, his voice softening, "Olive, you know what I mean. I'm not

suspecting Nick. It's just that... it all points to him. He just came back from the Harvard Institute, and you happened to be staying with him. I think maybe it was an accident..."

"No way!" I shook my head again. "I'm not trying to defend my friend either. Think about it. The Harvard Institute has strict custody rules for drugs. There's no way Nick, a former researcher, would be allowed to take the solvent with him. Besides, the security check of international flights is nothing but strict

Chemicals are absolutely not allowed to be brought into Germany from the United States

Accident or not, it certainly had nothing to do with Nick."

I didn't hear a response from Aaron, who seemed to be thinking about something. I was anxious, but all I could do was pull him to sit on the couch and patiently continue to analyze,

"Since I have been pregnant, my friends around me have been very careful about my body. They even care about me and our baby more than I do, especially Nick, who is so attentive and affectionate. He would never let me get hurt at his place."

Hearing me say "affectionate", Nick looked up abruptly

He frowned at me, seemingly suddenly realizing something. "You're right. Nick is such an affectionate person. He loved David so much that he stayed with David for so long even after he knew David was mind-controlling him

David was recently seen in Berlin, and yet they have not crossed paths. Olive, do you think that's normal?"

Aaron wasn't mocking or questioning. He was Just stating his opinion as calmly as I had been

And I was awakened by his words all of a sudden

Nick was careful and gentle indeed, yet his character like this had made him suffer a lot

I had been trying to defend him, trying to convince Aaron that he would never do anything to hurt me. But I forgot one thing

Those who were careful, gentle, and affectionate were the easiest to be used by others

If memories served right, David was in Berlin when Aaron and I were married. I hadn't put his name on the wedding guest list, but Nick had hemmed and hawed about seeing David on the lawn

But he swore he didn't talk much with David, let

alone get back together with David, so I didn't ask further

However, David was the only person who had access to the Harvard Institute's solvents besides Nick. David was the head of the institute, and therefore he had access to the solvents more easily than Nick

Of course, after hearing the stories from Colston, I had never mentioned David's name when with Aaron again out of concern for his feelings

It seemed that all of us were hiding something from each other for the sake of each other's feelings, which almost caused a great disaster
