Chapter 1398
Jared caressed Nicole's face, while his eyes were brimming with reluctance.
Nicole's heart melted at the sight of his doting eyes. 'He has been treating me so well. Even after my face has become like this, he still treats me the same as before. He isn't disgusted by me at all...'
'The original plan was to lure the perpetrator out, but I didn't expect him to care about me this much. It's really getting overwhelming.'
Nicole was struck with a pang of guilt when she saw how reluctant Jared was to leave. 'Maybe I should've told him the plan. That way, he wouldn't be as sad. But then again, Jared would behave too calmly, and because of that, we won't be able to fool anyone.'
Then, she closed her eyes and waited for time to pass.
As night fell, a person came knocking on Joyce McCarthy's door and barged in hastily.
"Nicole was injured and hospitalized, Ms. Jo. The injury was very serious. It left her disfigured!"
"Disfigured?"
'The heavens must be on my side! Looks like the restaurant owner is reliable after all. Now that the b**** has been disfigured, I'll have to see how she'll seduce other people!'
"Is there anyone guarding that b****?" Joyce looked at her aide with a glint of wickedness in her eye.
"Jared was there with her earlier, but he seemed to have left to get something."
Joyce smirked at once. 'This opportunity is a gift from heaven!'
