Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook

Chapter 298 Nicole Is Back

The voice sounded familiar. Jarrod's eyes welled up with instant crimson.

With his palms pressed to the ground, Jarrod struggled to rise and clasp the woman in his arms.

But at that very moment, the woman in black high heels planted her foot on the back of Jarrod's hand.

Her voice, as frigid as ice, cut through the air. "Look at yourself."

Then, she paused, twisting her high heel on the back of Jarrod's hand as if seeking to pierce his palm. "You resemble a stray dog now!"

With those words, she sauntered away in her black high heels.

Gazing at the bloody stain on the back of his hand, he insisted, "I'm certain

she's returned."

Hearing those words, Alec continued to harbor doubts about Jarrod's perception. If Nicole were truly alive, then who was the lifeless body resting in Jarrod's residence?
