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.

After encountering Nicole that night, Jarrod had the body's DNA checked, but it matched no one in the national database. It seemed Nicole had used the body of some unknown homeless person to deceive him once again. O

The thought of how this heartless woman had tricked him filled Jarrod with a burning rage. He wanted to lash out at her, but for some reason, he couldn't suppress the longing to embrace her.

His heart ached unbearably. Jarrod was sure that even the pain of a thousand arrows couldn't match this torment.

Nicole, on the other hand, showed no sign of surprise upon seeing Jarrod. She simply raised an eyebrow and asked, "Could you release me, Mr. Schultz?" Her tone was cool and detached as if she hadn't tricked Jarrod with that body at all.

Nicole was eerily composed as if there were no bitter feelings between her and Jarrod.

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.
