Chapter 319 Is It Amusing to Fool Me

Nicole was wearing a sexy black dress. She was slender, but her figure was voluptuous and alluring.

Jarrod couldn't take his eyes off Nicole's face. He knew she had come back alive, but seeing her in the flesh made every breath sting.

The pain was nothing less than what Jarrod had felt five years ago when he cradled the lifeless body which he assumed was Nicole's in his arms. Night after night, he was tormented by that memory and the agony it brought.

Now, looking back, Jarrod found his deeds ridiculous. Nicole had tricked him with a body that couldn't be identified.

Jarrod was stunned by her calm demeanor. He couldn't fathom how she could be so collected after everything.

Clenching his jaw, Jarrod asked in a measured tone, "Nicole, do you really get a kick out of fooling me like this?"

Before Nicole could utter a word, Raegan's brow creased in concern. "Didn't you hear her? She told you to let her go," Raegan asserted.
