Chapter 277 Nicole Was Gone

The sea roiled beneath a stormy sky, and Jarrod frantically scanned the turbulent waters for any sign of

Nicole.

Without a second thought, Jarrod crossed the railing and sprinted toward the edge, only to be grabbed

by Alec from behind.

"Be careful, Mr.Schultz! If you jump at the wrong angle, you might end up falling on the rocks..."

Alec didn't finish his words.

He wanted to say that there was no point in searching Nicole.She was likely dead by now.

"Let go of me!"

Jarrod's eyes burned with a demonic intensity, his voice trembling with desperation.

The vast ocean below seemed bottomless, each passing moment diminishing Nicole's chances of

survival.

“Mr.Schultz, Miss Lawrence seems determined to end herself!"

Alec reluctantly revealed the harsh reality.

"This morning, a substantial sum of money was transferred to Mrs.Lawrence's hospital account,

enough to cover the next fifty years.It must be from Miss Lawrence."

Perhaps when Nicole visited Dora yesterday, she had already made up her mind.

Shock gripped Jarrod when he heard that.

Nicole had made up her mind.

She would rather die than be with him.In an instant, Jarrod's heart felt as though it had been wrenched

open, bleeding with each tearing fragment.

The pain surged from his heart to every inch of his being, threatening to overwhelm him.

In a daze, a distant voice seemed to call him from the deep blue sea.

“Jarrod...Jarrod..."

The voice echoed, and Jarrod's heart felt as if it had been stabbed.

Dizziness gradually overwhelmed him, and he couldn't stand on his own.

Fortunately, Alec caught him in time.

Jarrod's response was swift.

"If I don't make it, bury us together when you find our bodies."

In the next breath, he leaped into the boundless sea.

"Mr.Schultz!"

Alec shouted anxiously.

Alec hurried to the Coast Guard office, seeking their assistance.

A rescue team was dispatched to search for Jarrod and Nicole.
