The door burst open.

Jarrod swiftly entered the room in his wheelchair. With surprising strength, he lifted Nicole, who was lost in her frenzied state, and forcefully tossed her aside.

Then, he bent down to scoop up Jamie from the ground.

"Jamie! Jamie, wake up!"

Despite his weakened state from the spear attack, Jarrod's actions were decisive. The spear that had hit him was custom-made and designed to deliver a significant impact while causing minimal damage.

It had missed his vital organs, allowing for a relatively good recovery. Nevertheless, he still needed a wheelchair for mobility.

Jamie gasped for breath, followed by a series of coughing fits. After catching her breath, she clung to Jarrod and sobbed uncontrollably.

"Jarrod, you saw it!"

Jarrod's gaze fell upon the two purple marks on Jamie's neck. His eyes grew cold and clouded with darkness.

Meanwhile, Jamie continued to cry and make a scene.

“She wanted to kill me, Jarrod. She's dangerous. We need to call the police and get her arrested. She should rot in prison, just like her father!"

Nicole's bloodshot eyes seemed to blaze with even greater intensity at the mention of her father. She hated herself for not having enough strength and unsuccessfully silencing Jamie once and for all.

With a glare that could cut through steel, Nicole hissed through clenched teeth, "My only regret is not killing you. If I had another chance, I wouldn't hesitate to strangle you again!"

Nicole's words, laced with deep loathing, caused Jarrod's eyes to narrow into dangerous slits, and a storm brewed on his handsome face.

"Nicole, kneel down and apologize to Jamie," he commanded in a calm yet icy tone.

When the door opened, the scene where Nicole was tightly strangling Jamie appeared before everyone's eyes. And Nicole admitted it herself.

Nicole's intent to harm Jamie was undeniable.

If Jamie persisted in filing a lawsuit against Nicole, the latter would definitely have been sent to jail.

However, this was not the result Jarrod wanted.

So, he planned to let Jamie vent her anger and convince her to let this matter go.
