Chapter 1916

Zane turned around instinctively. He had not expected Nicole to be already there standing by the door.

Nicole had been thinking of how to break the news to Zane when she was walking, but to her relief she heard such words from Zane as soon as she pried the doors open.

Jared looked at Nicole as if he had been expecting her. 'I knew she would come personally.' Jared walked up to Nicole, and supported her before turning to Zane and saying, "Then I'll take you on Nicole's behalf."

"I'm sorry, Zane," Nicole blabbered out abruptly, finding herself apologizing.

Zane immediately shook his head. "No, don't be. I'm sorry I didn't let you go sooner." Zane had long since contemplated this issue when Nicole had returned to her family. He had been reluctant about it but now with Nicole being pregnant, it was inevitable. Zane could not let Nicole take any more risks.
