Chapter 1444: Chapter 1447

They weren’t sure if Jarrod was involved.

If he was, that would be an inexcusable error.

Mitchel suggested, “Jarrod, if there’s no fixing it, you should step back.

Allow Miss Lawrence to choose her path.

Avoid further errors.

”

Jarrod arched an eyebrow.

“If I suggested you release Raegan, would you be able to do it?”

Mitchel’s reply was firm.

“I wouldn’t.

” The thought of letting Raegan go, despite the agony it brought, was inconceivable to him.

Jarrod’s face hardened with resolve, his voice steadfast.

“Likewise for me.

Even at the cost of my life, I won’t let her go.

”

Mitchel had no counterarguments left.

The concept of surrendering for the sake of love was an alien idea to Jarrod.

Mitchel suspected it was just as foreign to him.

In the cozy living room, Raegan observed Nicole’s ashen face, her tone filled with concern.

“Nicole, what really transpired?”

Nicole calmly stated, “It was I who inflicted the wound on him.

”

“Was it unintentional?” Raegan struggled to digest this revelation.

Nicole was known for her levelheadedness, not for actions spurred by animosity.

“It happened by mistake,” Nicole clarified.

A weight lifted from Raegan’s heart, albeit slightly.

As Nicole’s eyes welled up, she added, “Yet, at the instant I realized what I’d done, a part of me wished it was fatal.

”

Raegan, visibly taken aback, grasped Nicole’s shoulders firmly.

“Nicole, no matter your hate for him, such actions are not the answer.

”

Nicole wiped away her tears, smiling.

“I won’t mess up.

I promise.

”

Nicole aimed to ease Raegan’s concerns.

Her darker thoughts were hers alone, not to burden Raegan with.

Nicole was aware of Raegan’s nature.

Had Raegan known her plans, Raegan would fret so much that she couldn’t sleep or eat.

Taking a deep breath, Raegan said, “Nicole, you’re intelligent.

Don’t be harsh on yourself because of someone else’s wrongdoings.

”

“I’m aware.

” Nicole squeezed Raegan’s hand firmly, her face earnest.

“Raegan, I can’t do much at the moment.

Can you help me out with something?”

Raegan gave a nod, signaling her agreement.

Nicole peeked around, ensuring their conversation remained private, and said in a low voice, “I’ve mailed a box of medication to your workshop, under your name.

After three days, head the medication over to the alley beside 120 Ashfield, find a house marked by three red bricks, and give it to an old lady living there.

”

Raegan felt confused, pondering why such medication had to be shrouded in mystery.
