When Raegan heard this, her hand trembled.
Why did Nicole and Jarrod get involved with each other again?
“Nicole, you... Why are you with him again?”
“It's not that I want to be with him. He won't let me go. No matter how hard I cry
and beg him, he doesn’t want to set me free. If I resist, he will take revenge on
my parents. The Lawrence family is in his hands, so I can’t escape from him.
Raegan was utterly shocked. She thought Nicole and Jarrod had let go of the
past. She didn’t expect them to be in this situation.
Her heart ached for Nicole.
She and Nicole were pretty much the same. They both fell in love with a man
when they were young and innocent. And they stupidly loved those men for
years.
Therefore, she completely understood Nicole's pain and struggles.
They were both trapped in a dark abyss of love. Nicole's Love was ruined by a
family feud, while hers was ended by a miscarriage. But they were still in love
with their men, no matter how much they wanted to hate them.
They were both wounded and were sorry for each other.
But Nicole's situation was worse. Raegan knew that Jamie was more precious in
Jarrod’s eyes than Lauren in Mitchel's eyes. Moreover, Jarrod and Jamie were
already engaged and were getting married soon.
Under such a circumstance, even though Nicole was only forced to be with
Jarrod, she would have a hard time.
Raegan was restless. She always felt something would happen to Nicole.
Raegan was still stunned when Nicole suddenly reached out her hand and
pinched Raegan’s face. She then put a finger on her lips and said in a low voice,
“This secret is only between you and me. Don't tell Raegan, okay? I'm afraid
she... She will look down upon me if she knows about it.”
These words were like a sharp knife that pierced Raegan’s heart. She held
Nicole in her arms and burst into tears.
Raegan said between sobs, “You, silly girl, I will never look down upon you.
Nicole, if anything happens to you, you must tell me. I have your back.”
Although Nicole was intoxicated, she seemed to sense something. She cried
bitterly in Raegan’s arms.
After giving Nicole a bath, Raegan also got wet. She dried herself first before
dragging Nicole out of the bathtub. Then, Raegan wiped Nicole dry and helped
her put on her pajamas before carrying Nicole to her room.
Nicole was so tired that she fell into a deep slumber as soon as her head hit the
pillow.
Raegan was so exhausted that she didn’t want to move a muscle. She wanted to
go back to her room and lay flat on the bed.
When she walked out of Nicole’s room, she saw Mitchel leaning against the
balustrade and smoking.
She was stunned for a moment.
Mitchel must have felt her presence. He turned around and looked at her. He was
so casual, feeling like he was in his own house. He finished his cigarette
unhurriedly.
He wore nothing but a bath towel wrapped around his waist, but it didn't make
him look indecent at all. Instead, he looked extremely handsome and sexy.
