Chapter: 2124
Having gotten involved with Jarrod, Nicole deemed herself unworthy for someone as pure as Roscoe. The release of this video only confirmed her belief.
Suddenly, Roscoe felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if it was being ripped open from the inside. The pain was so intense that it made it hard for him to talk or breathe for a while. "Nicole, you're perfect to me, like the moon," he said, his voice breaking as he pulled her into a hug. "This hurts you, doesn't it?"
At his words, Nicole started crying again. Feeling someone care about her pain felt incredibly good.
The stars lit up their path, and in Nicole's once barren and cold heart, a tough white rose began to bloom quietly.
This night was the beginning of the most beautiful chapter of Nicole's life, yet it also marked the last bit of beauty she felt she had.
But right then, Nicole held it dear. She was resolved that both she and Roscoe needed to make the best of their Lives.
After that night, Raegan found no opportunity to see Mitchel again for several days.
Despite living in the same city, Raegan suddenly realized they might never meet again in this lifetime if Mitchel made a point of avoiding her.
The memory of Mitchel's icy demeanor and his claim of not loving Raegan anymore cut deep.
Yet, each night as Raegan closed her eyes, she could not help but think of the determination in Mitchel's eyes when he decisively pushed her out of the car loaded with explosives. At that time, he chose to save her at the cost of his own life. The affection she once saw in him seemed a stark contrast to the distance and coldness now. Was something behind Mitchel's aloof facade?
In the afternoon, once returned from kindergarten, Janey brought up once again her desire to visit Luciana, who had saved her.
Perhaps it was the familial bond asserting itself, as Janey, since being rescued, had inquired about Luciana several times.
Both logically and emotionally, Raegan felt compelled to take Janey to see Luciana.
However, because of the ban imposed by Mitchel, Raegan could only suggest to Janey, "Let's prepare some food and leave it outside her hospital room. I'll try to arrange for us to go inside, but if we're unable to, at least our thoughts will be conveyed.”
Janey, not fully comprehending, nodded. “Okay, I will be good."
Janey's compliance filled Raegan with a mixture of emotions, including a twinge of sorrow.
Annis had hinted that Janey wished to see Mitchel, but being perceptive to the tension between Raegan and Mitchel, Janey never brought it up around Raegan.
While preparing nutritional soup, Raegan became distracted and accidentally scalded her hand, resulting in two blisters. She simply wrapped it with gauze and, carrying the soup with Janey, had Victor drive them to the hospital.
Upon arriving at Luciana's exclusive VIP floor, Raegan was unsurprised to find that Luciana was unavailable.
Raegan appealed to the security staff, mentioning Janey, in the hope that Luciana might be willing to meet Janey. After all, Luciana had risked her life to save Janey. It seemed only natural that Luciana would want to see Janey.
