Chapter: 2907
Nicole felt exceptionally hungry and possessed a robust appetite. She consumed a substantial amount. One reason for this was the improved situation with Kamilah and Austin, allowing her to temporarily Lift the heavy burden on her heart. Consequently, her appetite increased noticeably.
Next, she needed to wait for Kamilah's condition to stabilize before formulating any plans.
Kamilah had dedicated herself to Austin's care for years. Under no circumstances could Nicole bring herself to abandon Kamilah.
Nicole felt the need to ensure that Kamilah received proper treatment.
Experts suggested that with adequate care, there was hope for Kamilah to recover up to 70%.
Compared to foreign physicians, Nicole trusted the competence of domestic doctors more. During her time abroad, she had witnessed numerous instances of misdiagnosis or patients' conditions worsening due to excessive medication.
Therefore, in the short term, Nicole didn't intend to leave. She needed to care for Kamilah while also taking Austin to consult with a local doctor to find an effective way to support his well-being.
Furthermore, she needed to be mindful of Vicki's predicament.
Nicole examined her phone and discovered no online reports of Vicki's arrest. The Hampton family must have swiftly managed to hush up the incident. They sought to diminish public interest and shirk accountability.
Scoffing, Nicole decided to bide her time. She intended to observe how the Hampton family managed the affair before striking decisively at the opportune moment.

Jarrod reached the company at 10:00 in the morning.

Therefore, Jarrod's late arrival today, coupled with his cheerful demeanor, drew the employees’ attention.
"What's the matter with the boss? Seems like there's some good news."
"Mr. Schultz isn't about to get married, is he? It must involve Miss Hampton."
“Mr. Schultz and Miss Hampton's relationship has always been steady. When she visited, he was never this happy before. Why does he seem so elated today? I doubt it's related to Miss Hampton."
"Then with whom does it concern?"
