The night stretched on, filled with agony.

As dawn approached, Nicole's pain intensified, every part of her body screaming.

Her strength waning, she felt a warm liquid trickle down her legs, pooling on the floor.

The woman opposite noticed and gasped.

"Why is she bleeding heavily?

Did she have a miscarriage?"

At that moment, the heavy iron door was opened.

A voice remarked, "You're free to go now, 4129. 4129... Get an ambulance, now!"

Nicole's nerves, strained to their limit, eased only when she was safely inside the ambulance.

A sensation of something descending in her lower abdomen gripped her Had her baby failed to live after the torment she went through?

ANGELA's LIBRARY

A mouthful of blood escaped Nicole's lips. Her fingers clenched so tightly that blood oozed from her grasp.

Jarrod! What a bastard! How could he be cruel as to get rid of his own child? How dare him!

In the hospital, Jarrod remained by Jamie's side.

Jamie, after a detailed examination, was found to be unharmed. The fork had missed her artery.

In the chaos, Jamie had pressed her hand against the wound, making the bleeding appear more severe than it was.

Traumatized, Jamie repeatedly voiced her fear that Nicole wanted to kill her, opting to stay in the hospital for a few more days with Jarrod by her side.

At this moment, Jarrod stepped out of the ward for a moment alone in the corridor.

He was about to light a cigarette when his phone rang. Alec was on the line.

"Mr. Schultz, I went to pick up Miss Lawrence as instructed, but Mr. Dixon's men had already secured her medical parole."

Mitchel had arranged Nicole's medical parole? Jarrod pondered for a moment and connected the dots. Raegan must have spoken to Mitchel and asked for help.

He recalled Mitchel's call from the previous night, which he had neglected due to Jamie's distress.

This had to be the topic of that missed call.

He had never intended to detain Nicole for long. Doing Mitchel this favor seemed right.

"Forget it. Just take care of the remaining issues."
