Witnessing Nicoles desolation, Rhett couldnt help but offer comfort.
Miss Lawrence, dont despair. If youre certain that Mr. Schultz has been taking his medication, then there must be some explanation. Stay hopeful. We still have a chance.
The lawyers pragmatic words jolted Nicole back to reality. Jarrod had indeed taken the medication. So, what was truly unfolding here?
Rhett promptly reached out to an acquaintance at the courthouse to inquire about any irregularities with Jarrods testing organization.
He instructed Nicole to wait for him in the car.
Nicole walked absentmindedly toward the door and accidentally collided with someone. Feeling a sharp pain in her nose, she hurriedly apologized, Im sorry, Im sorry
Its alright. The mans voice startled Nicole.
As Nicole lifted her head, she saw that it was Roscoe whom she had bumped into, intensifying her distress. Fearing she couldnt contain her tears, she lowered her head and murmured once more, Im sorry.

His question caught Nicole off guard. Transient memory loss could occur, and Roscoe might retain fragments of memory about her. It could be considered positive that he felt a sense of familiarity with her.
I Nicole was about to speak when Doreen, returning from the bathroom, hurried over.
Roscoe, have you been waiting for me long? While speaking, Doreen directed a glare at Nicole.
Doreen had become noticeably more guarded ever since her encounter with Nicoles formidable lawyer. She refrained from speaking out of turn, fearing the lawyers potential return. Regarding the slap, she was determined not to forget or forgive. She vowed that Nicole would face severe consequences!
Lets go, Doreen asserted, seizing Roscoes arm and leading him away.
Observing the backs of the departing figures, Nicole drifted into contemplation.
