Raegan asked again, “So, what do you plan to do next?”
Nicole shook her head. She honestly didn’t know what to do. Dora was ill at home, and she had to handle all the arrangements for her father’s funeral alone. Her head was a mess.
Until now, she still couldn’t accept the fact that things had turned this way.
Nicole hoped everything was just a nightmare. When she woke up, she could still find Wesson resting at home. She, Dora, and Wesson would still live as a happy family of three. They would be together until the end.
However, everything in front of her reminded Nicole of the truth. No matter what, it was no longer possible for them to be together.
Raegan and Nicole hugged each other and cried for a while, hoping to pour out the heaviness in their hearts.
Raegan stayed for a while to accompany Nicole. When she was about to leave, she remembered something. She asked Nicole, “Nicole, do you have your phone with you? Can I borrow it? I just need to make a phone call.”
Nicole handed her phone to Raegan without hesitation. Nicole was surprised that Raegan couldn’t even use her phone. Raegan must be having a hard time under Mitchel’s watchful eyes.
After Raegan left, Nicole returned to her seat and sat there again motionlessly.
The sun had set, and the sky was getting dark outside. At this moment, an unexpected guest arrived at the mourning hall.

Jamie walked in with a bouquet of roses in her hand. She wore a black wool coat. Jarrod happened to go out to smoke, so they didn’t meet.
Jamie walked straight into the mourning hall, intending to pay respect. But she was suddenly stopped by a furious roar, “Get out of here!”
Although there were only a few people in the mourning hall at this moment, Jamie was a little embarrassed after being shouted at.

She said angrily, “Nicole, I came here out of goodwill to pay respect to your father. How can you be so rude to your guest?”
Nicole glared at Jamie with red eyes. She said through clenched teeth, “You are not welcome here. Your presence will only tarnish my father’s name and disturb his peaceful rest.”
“Peaceful rest?” Jamie smiled sarcastically and retorted, “Do you really think your father can rest peacefully?”
Nicole no longer wanted to waste her strength arguing with Jamie. So, she said coldly, “Are you going to leave on your own, or should I have the security guards drag you out?”
“Whoa, you are so fierce,” Jamie mocked. “Look who’s driving me away.
Ah, it’s Miss Lawrence from the bankrupt Lawrence Group. Are you threatening me? Oh, I’m so scared.”
Nicole clenched her fists tightly. She wished she could tear Jamie apart right at this moment.
“Nicole, I’m actually here to tell you some good news,” Jamie added with a smile before Nicole could say anything. “Don’t you find it strange that your mother hasn’t shown up even though your father is dead?”
Nicole asked vigilantly, “What are you talking about?”
“Aren’t you informed that your mother fell ill because of sadness and depression?”
Nicole stared at Jamie, feeling uneasy. She had a hunch in her heart, but she wasn’t sure about it.
