Nicole realized she was wasting her breath.
She was actually dealing with a lunatic! Jarrod would never grasp the extent of her suffering.
Nicole scoffed.
âJarrod, even if my father made mistakes, I never betrayed you.
Canât you see that?â
Jarrodâs gaze was deep and unreadable, with a flurry of emotions crossing his face in seconds.
âWhat do you mean?â he asked, clearly bewildered.
Nicole looked at Jarrodâs confused expression and let out a scornful laugh, her charm amplified by her smile.
âWell, Jarrod, do you think youâre so capable that you can do whatever you wish? It turns out youâre just a fool tricked by a deceitful, hypocritical, and malicious woman.
You know who Iâm talking about, donât you? Itâs Jamie, the one youâve been treasured all along.
Sheâs nothing but a liar from start to finish!â
Jarrodâs handsome face lost its color instantly upon hearing this.
And this was just the beginning of the drama.
Nicole had been eagerly awaiting this moment.
She gazed at Jarrod, studying his expression intently.
âJarrod, do you remember how I told you I had plans to see you before you left the country? You didnât believe me, but I really did go there for you! Not just that, I brought along thirty million dollars, thinking it would help you in your tough times.

It appeared as if someone was whispering, urging him to ignore it.

âLetâs leave the past behind, Nicole!
Just come back to me.
I swear Iâll treat you right!â
The past slowly resurfaced, piece by piece.
Perhaps Jarrod had once been on the verge of uncovering the truth, but now he didnât care about it anymore.
But Nicole wasnât about to let him have his way.
The flustered Jarrod got, the more determined she became to continue.
Nicole was eager to witness Jarrodâs reaction as he fell into the trap she had intricately set for him.
Nicole scoffed before continuing, âI knew you wouldnât believe me.
But itâs quite a small world.
The kidnapper, who vanished back then, ended up committing crimes abroad and got jailed for several years.
When he was released, I unexpectedly ran into him.

Guess what? He shared a fascinating tale with me.
He claimed they were hired to eliminate me, and the person behind it was none other than your darling fiancée, Jamie.
After knocking me hard on the head, they thought that I was already dead and dumped me in a ditch.
The money I had for you? It ended up in Jamieâs hands.
She used that money to help support your career.
I guess you couldnât forget that, right?â

âI canât believe it.
Itâs not.

Jarrodâs eyes widened in shock.
He didnât dare to hear anymore, yet he found himself speechless before Nicole.
