Raegan asked again, âSo, what do you plan to do next?â
Nicole shook her head.
She honestly didnât know what to do.
Dora was ill at home, and she had to handle all the arrangements for her fatherâs funeral alone.
Her head was a mess.
Until now, she still couldnât accept the fact that things had turned this way.
Nicole hoped everything was just a nightmare.
When she woke up, she could still find Wesson resting at home.
She, Dora, and Wesson would still live as a happy family of three.
They would be together until the end.
However, everything in front of her reminded Nicole of the truth.
No matter what, it was no longer possible for them to be together.
Raegan and Nicole hugged each other and cried for a while, hoping to pour out the heaviness in their hearts.
Raegan stayed for a while to accompany Nicole.
When she was about to leave, she remembered something.
She asked Nicole, âNicole, do you have your phone with you? Can I borrow it? I just need to make a phone call.
â
Nicole handed her phone to Raegan without hesitation.
Nicole was surprised that Raegan couldnât even use her phone.
Raegan must be having a hard time under Mitchelâs watchful eyes.
After Raegan left, Nicole returned to her seat and sat there again motionlessly.
The sun had set, and the sky was getting dark outside.
At this moment, an unexpected guest arrived at the mourning hall.
Jamie walked in with a bouquet of roses in her hand.
She wore a black wool coat.
Jarrod happened to go out to smoke, so they didnât meet.
Jamie walked straight into the mourning hall, intending to pay respect.
But she was suddenly stopped by a furious roar, âGet out of here!â
Although there were only a few people in the mourning hall at this moment, Jamie was a little embarrassed after being shouted at.
She said angrily, âNicole, I came here out of goodwill to pay respect to your father.
How can you be so rude to your guest?â
Nicole glared at Jamie with red eyes.
She said through clenched teeth, âYou are not welcome here.
Your presence will only tarnish my fatherâs name and disturb his peaceful rest.
â
âPeaceful rest?â Jamie smiled sarcastically and retorted, âDo you really think your father can rest peacefully?â
Nicole no longer wanted to waste her strength arguing with Jamie.
So, she said coldly, âAre you going to leave on your own, or should I have the security guards drag you out?â
âWhoa, you are so fierce,â Jamie mocked.
âLook whoâs driving me away.
Ah, itâs Miss Lawrence from the bankrupt Lawrence Group.
Are you threatening me? Oh, Iâm so scared.
â
Nicole clenched her fists tightly.
She wished she could tear Jamie apart right at this moment.
âNicole, Iâm actually here to tell you some good news,â Jamie added with a smile before Nicole could say anything.
âDonât you find it strange that your mother hasnât shown up even though your father is dead?â
Nicole asked vigilantly, âWhat are you talking about?â
âArenât you informed that your mother fell ill because of sadness and depression?â
Nicole stared at Jamie, feeling uneasy.
She had a hunch in her heart, but she wasnât sure about it.
