Chapter 163
Willow’s expression froze for a moment, and her damp eyelashes quivered.
Her gaze wandered, seeming lost in the distance, as if everyone’s souls had been carried away by the cold wind outside.
In the end, she gave in, feeling as low as could be. It hurt like nothing else.
Willow couldn’t tell if the pain came from her body or her heart. All she knew was that it hurt, and it felt like it would never end.
After the pain faded, she found it strangely funny. How could a walking corpse like her feel pain? She smiled bitterly.
The pain in her stomach made it hard to stand straight. Even picking up her scattered clothes was tough.
ao me!”
Before the pain could ease, Zayn’s cold voice cut in again. “Willow, say it! Beg
Willow knew she should please Zayn to save Nicola, but there were things she didn’t want to say
She numbly draped the shattered clothes over her body, leaning against the nearby sofa to steady herself, trying to appear less debased.
“Mr. Carter, can you testify for Nicola now?”
After saying this, Willow stared blankly out the window. Even though there were curtains, she could tell it was nearing evening Although she hadn’t taken the last breath, Willow felt like she was close to it. If she didn’t hurry to take painkillers, she might not even wait for Zayn to testify for Nicola before bidding farewell to this world.
Her hands trembled as she tightly gripped the phone. Her voice quivered as she exclaimed, “Sylvia, what the hell are you saying? Whose death are you talking about? Nicola is totally fine, how could she be dead? Sylvia, who do you think you are to curse Nicola like that?”
“Nicola jumped into the sea to commit suicide about an hour ago. She fell into an area infested with sharks, and the sea turned red with her blood. But I doubt you’ll be able to see her body because she’s been torn apart and swallowed by the sharks!”
She just met Nicola earlier this morning.
They had talked, hugged, and Willow could still feel Nicola’s warinth.
Nicola had hoped for Willow to bail her out of jail and wanted to safely give birth to her unborn child.
Willow couldn’t comprehend how someone as lively and vibrant as Nicola could suddenly be gone forever.
Nicola had been through a lot, but she was always strong–willed. Someone as resilient as Nicola wouldn’t give up easily. Willow truly wondered what Sylvia and Silas had done to make her lose all hope in the world and take such drastic action to take her own life.
