Chapter 1398

Author: Summer
Jared caressed Nicole's face, while his eyes were brimming with reluctance.

Nicole's heart melted at the sight of his doting eyes. 'He has been treating me so well. Even after my face has become like this, he still treats me the same as before. He isn't disgusted by me at all...'

'The original plan was to lure the perpetrator out, but I didn't expect him to care about me this much. It's really getting overwhelming.'

Nicole was struck with a pang of guilt when she saw how reluctant Jared was to leave. 'Maybe I should've told him the plan. That way, he wouldn't be as sad. But then again, Jared would behave too calmly, and because of that, we won't be able to fool anyone.'

Then, she closed her eyes and waited for time to pass.

As night fell, a person came knocking on Joyce McCarthy's door and barged in hastily.

"Nicole was injured and hospitalized, Ms. Jo. The injury was very serious. It left her disfigured!"

"Disfigured?"

    'It seems to me that I've really overestimated Joyce McCarthy.'The man under her feet attempted to sweep her leg off from under her in a hasty move, but she kicked his syringe away and proceeded to stomp on his other hand, crushing it hard under her heels."Since Joyce had sent you here, you must be one of her most loyal lackeys. Well, don't think of going back to her anymore. You're staying here," Nicole sneered."Keep dreaming!" The man immediately retorted.However, as soon as he had uttered those words, the door of the ward suddenly swung open, revealing Martin, who soon walked in with a group of policemen. They then picked the man up and cuffed him."Damn it, it was a trap!" The man bellowed, feeling a mix of astonishment and fear. 'This b**** is so devious that Ms. Jo might not be her match!'"Of course, it's a trap, do you really think I'm hurt?" Nicole sneered, her eyes dark and bloodthirsty.Martin shuddered the instant he noted Nicole's gaze. 'Now I understand why she

    However, due to the fact that she had just woken up, Nicole's throat was a little parched.Seeing this, Jared immediately passed a glass of water to her. "Here, drink some. It will make you feel better."Nicole's heart warmed as she received the glass of water, after which she gulped it down, "Much better..."'This silly man actually had so much trust for me,' Nicole thought.It had made her feel so bad for him that she did not have the heart to deceive him any longer."That's great," Jared's said, flooded with relief, but this did not last the moment he looked down. "But why are there broken syringes on the ground?"Although the room had been cleaned up, it was still quite messy. Jared could not help but cast his suspicions on all that had transpired last night.Shocked by the sight, she thought, 'This fella, Jared, is rather observant. Indeed, it would be too hard for me to fool him completely.'In fact, she was afraid that she would not have been able to keep the ruse up yes

    The sudden confession made Nicole choke, up and she fell silent thereafter. It was only after Jared had seen her lying down and doing what she was supposed to be doing that he went on to handle his work affairs remotely through his phone.He was actually quite busy, but he was also worried about Nicole, and that was why he would rather stay here to accompany her. Seeing this, Nicole had no other option but to turn her laptop on to do her work. After much thought, she sent a message to Harvey.As of now, Harvey was the only person capable of getting through this curveball.As expected, Max hurried into the room not long after. "Mr. Johnston, about the company meeting in the afternoon, it would be best if you show up..."Max closed in on Jared's ears to whisper the rest of the sentence to him. Nicole could not hear it clearly but she had an inkling of what the tactic that Harvey had employed was. As both sides were collaborating, the employees at the company would definitely be overw

    Having the mirror almost pressed to her face by Joyce, a murderous aura began emanating from Nicole as she grew purple with rage. The iciness in her gaze was instantly felt by Joyce.'Damn it, I had this exact feeling when I went up against her in the past! She is nothing but a troll now! What do I have to be afraid of?' Joyce thought.At that moment, Nicole struck back with a jab. "You really care about Martin? Well, weren't you the one who had set the factory that he worked hard to build on fire? The incident even almost took his life. So, tell me, who is the b**** in this room?"Joyce was taken aback, for she had not thought that Nicole knew about this incident. In response, she simply forced a smile. "Ha-ha, clever as always, I see. I had not thought that you would know that I was the one who did it so soon. The act was seamless, wasn't it?"Indeed, she had hired a professional to commit the act, rendering it impossible to find out who the perpetrator was, for there were little

    Her syringe was filled with a potent concoction. Although she had just been injected with less than a quarter, it was still life-threatening.Nicole looked at her panicked gaze and huffed. "Joyce, you really thought that you could take on me on your own?"After saying that, she lifted her hand to tear the prosthetic scar that Martin had made, restoring her face to normal.The very sight shocked Joyce to the point that she was rooted to the ground. "You, you're not disfigured! You're not even injured!"Indeed, she was not, for if she was, she would not have been able to fight back with such ease and viciousness.Nicole flashed Joyce a playful smirk. The beautiful smile on her face was like a flower in spring, causing Joyce to flinch in disgust and pain.Nicole then said, "Knowing it now is too late for you, but I'll tell you anyway. I've set all of this up just to lure you out. You're going to spend the rest of your life in a prison cell."Nicole's gaze darkened, as this was not

    She was very happy during her days spent with him. Very happy indeed, so much so that she did not realize that she, who did not fear death, was also capable of emotional attachment. However, all of this had been given to her by Jared...As the wind hissed past her ears, her mind became flooded with memories and thoughts about Jared. She suddenly felt remorseful for lying to him. If she died, he would be devastated. Strangely enough, Nicole, who had always been strong, had tears streaming down her face before being carried away by the wind."Goodbye... Jared..." Just as she closed her eyes, waiting for death to arrive, she heard a scream in her ear."Nicole!" Nicole subconsciously darted her eyes to the side and saw Jared rushing toward the spot where she would fall. Just as she was about to crash, he suddenly opened his arms."No!" Nicole screamed, for she would rather die than to see him get hurt trying to save her.However, unable to change the direction in which she was falling

    "A stretcher is needed here too!"Before Nicole entered the building, she saw that everyone was surrounding Joyce.Nicole glared in her general direction. Joyce was already lying in a pool of her own blood, unable to speak. Her body convulsed every now and again, but her gaze was fixed on Nicole. Even as she was breathing her last, she was still able to lift her finger and point it at Nicole, for even if she was going to hell, she would want nothing more than to drag her in. However, the moment she lifted her arm, there was a pause.At the very next moment, her arm fell limp on the ground. Her irises rolled back, and her breathing ceased.In response, Nicole coldly turned her head around without sparing Joyce another glance. If she died, it would be good news for her, but if she did not, that would mean that she was the one responsible for Jared's current state. As such, Nicole would show her a life worse than death if she could make it out alive.Jared was quickly wheeled into th

    "I'm sorry..." Harvey uttered, unable to say anything else.Nicole then landed a series of punches on his chest. "I asked you to stall him. If you had done your damn job, he would have been fine...!"As she spoke, her voice choked. Harvey had never seen Nicole in her current state. He had seen valiant Nicole; the Nicole who was always calm, collected, brilliant, and capable of coming up with strategies to deal with any situation, but he had never seen her being so vulnerable and tearful.At that moment, he became overwhelmed with remorse. He could not help but hug Nicole and allow her to land a flurry of hits on him."Hit me. I did not think that things would turn out the way they are. Jared ultimately knew everything. He had people monitoring you at the hospital... He knew that Joyce had brought her men with her to make another attempt on your life, and knowing this, he left in a hurry..." Harvey revealed as Nicole continued to land a few blows on him.However, the more she knew

    Nicole laughed off the debate between Lulu and June, saying, "Both are lovely. I'm happy with either."Both sets of jewelry were beautiful, and she felt that either would do."Exactly. Nicole will shine in anything," Cindy said, picking a set. "Let's go with this one."Lulu gave June a victorious look. "Told you this was the one."Cindy then suggested, "Why not wear this for the ceremony and switch for the reception? That way, we use both.""Great idea," June agreed, smiling at Cindy's suggestion.Nicole smiled. "Sounds perfect."With everyone agreeing, the stylist went ahead with preparing Nicole.Lulu watched Nicole, amazed by how calm she seemed. "Aren't you a bit nervous?" she asked.

"I'm more excited than anything," she admitted.She had been looking forward to this day, ready to face the future with Jared with hope and joy."Just finished," the stylist announced, stepping back to adm

    "Do you think I don't want to meet someone? I just haven't found the right person," Gary said somewhat resignedly. He had long regarded Nicole as just a friend."Why don't we just try the dates our families set up?" Ryder suggested, calm and collected. He figured since finding someone on his own wasn't working, maybe arranged dates could help. In their circles, it seemed like good matches were meant to be."Arranged dates don't sound great. You hardly know the person. Are we really okay with deciding to spend our lives together like that?" Preston wasn't too keen on the idea."Emery's doing pretty well with it, you know," Ryder said confidently. "I trust our families. They wouldn't set us up with someone terrible. They've probably made sure we'd be a good match."Gary thought it over. "You might be right. Our families aren't just trying to make deals; they want us to be happy."As Gary and Ryder seemed more into the idea, Preston was still unsure. "You guys are serious?""Why not

    Jared held Nicole close and looked at her. "After we get married, we'll move to the estate," he said.Their future home would be just theirs.He thought it was good for Nicole to spend more time with her family since she hadn't been with them for five years. But they knew they would move to the estate later."Okay," Nicole said, nodding. She was happy Jared made the estate close to her family, so she was okay with moving.Jared gently touched her hair and kissed her...****Time flew, and soon it was Nicole and Jared's wedding day.From the morning, San Joto was alive with excitement.

He quickly got Patricia to come and greet him. Max, hearing the fuss, came over too.C

    "You really need to rest. You shouldn't work for the next few days. Stay home and rest. A bride has to look her best," Gloria said, looking at Nicole and making the decision for her."Bride!" Nicole was surprised because she hadn't talked about any wedding yet."Yes, now that everything is settled, it's time for your wedding with Jared," Gloria said, deciding firmly. She used to think it was best for the kids to decide for themselves, but after several delays, she felt waiting longer made no sense. The wedding should happen soon."I was thinking that too," Jared said. They had planned the wedding after solving the Everett problem, but then they found out Lawrence had hurt Nicole in the past, causing more delays. Now, with everything sorted out, they saw no reason to wait. The wedding was the next big step.Nicole looked at Jared and, with a smile, agreed, "Okay." Their wedding had been waiting for five years; it was time, with no need to wait any longer."That's so cool, I'm the f

    Patricia felt a mix of reluctance and happiness as she prepared to part ways with Charlie.Jared glanced at Charlie and said, "It's about time for us to board." He tenderly held Nicole's hand and led her toward the boarding gate."I need to go through the boarding procedures too," Patricia said, biting her lip. "You must find happiness as well.""I will," Charlie assured her with a gentle smile, giving her a reassuring pat on the shoulder. "You've grown up, too. You don't need to cling to me anymore. I believe Ellar will take great care of you."Patricia nodded, then, leaning closer to Charlie, she whispered, 'When Mr. Johnston and Ms. Riddle get married, make sure you bring my future sister-in-law back with you.' Caught off guard, Charlie playfully scolded her, "You little rascal."Doretta, standing not too far away, overheard Patricia's whispered words. Her cheeks turned even redder."Let's go," Patricia announced, then turned to Doretta, adding, "We'll meet again.""Goodbye,

    Lying in bed with Nicole cradled in his arms, Jared whispered gently, "Sleep for a bit.""Mhm." Finally feeling at peace, Nicole smiled slightly, and she quickly fell asleep.As Jared listened to her soft breathing, his eyes softened with affection, and he too closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.The next morning, as the group got ready to head back to San Joto, Zane and Doretta came to say goodbye."I still have things to finish here, but I promise to be at your wedding," Zane said with a big smile."And I'll be there to wish you well, Nicole," Doretta added.Saying goodbye is always hard, but everyone knew they had their own journeys to continue."Great, we'll see you in San Joto," Nicole said with a bright smile."It's time to go," Zane said, knowing they couldn't wait any longer without risking missing their plane."I've got the paperwork," Patricia said, ready to help with the travel documents for Jared and Nicole. Then, looking at Charlie, she asked, "Need help with

    Nicole was quiet, thinking about everything. 'If I hadn't remembered everything, maybe Lawrence and I could have stayed friends. But after finding out about the airport, it's impossible...'Not only had she regained her memory, but she had also learned about the airport incident. Lawrence had gone to great lengths to prevent her from returning to San Joto."Thanks for saving me before, but you also hurt me. We're even now," Nicole said calmly, looking at Lawrence like he was someone she didn't know anymore.Jared squeezed Nicole's hand gently. "Let's go."They decided to leave the rest to Zane and head back."Wait." Lawrence's voice stopped Nicole. He sounded almost like he was begging. "Please, don't tell Nolan about this."Nicole paused, then said, "I won't tell him. Not for you, but because I don't want Nolan to see how bad people can be."With that, Nicole walked away with Jared.Lawrence sat down, watching her leave, with mixed feelings."Let's go too," Patricia said to C

    "Your robots don't work anymore," a voice said, sounding very pleased. Then, a person came out from behind the crowd, looking pretty proud of himself."Carl!" Nicole was shocked to see him. 'It's Carl!'"It's been a while." Carl smiled and waved at Nicole.Carl had come as soon as Zane told him about the problem. He couldn't just do nothing when Nicole needed help.He didn't expect them to act so soon, which is why he was a little late. But he was still in time to help. Carl was surprised by Lawrence's robots at first, but luckily, the weapons he brought, which he had been working on for years, stopped the robots. This was a big help to everyone."We really need to thank Carl; we would have been in big trouble without him," Zane said, feeling relieved.Zane had asked Carl for help, hoping it would make them more likely to win, but Carl ended up being very important."Thank you," Nicole said with a warm smile. It was nice to see an old friend again."No need to thank me. I'm jus
