A single glance was all it took for Raegan to realize Jarrod was plotting to take Nicoles child legally.
Raegan had refrained from confronting Rhett, knowing Nicole had likely requested she not be informed, to spare her additional stress.
Raegan had never imagined Jarrod would brazenly attempt to take Nicoles child. Now that Nicole was in such a dire state, could he really strip her of any remaining hope?
Raegan erupted. That scoundrel, Ill find him and give him a piece of my mind!
Wrapped up in her rage, Raegan failed to grasp the urgency of Nicoles predicament.
Attempting to stay composed, Nicole responded, Im okay, Raegan. Dont go after him. It wont help. He wont listen to you. Please, dont get worked up over this.
But I need to confront him, or Ill burst! Its been ages since Ive encountered someone so vile! Raegan insisted, resolved to face Jarrod.
Nicole felt a measure of comfort from her friends fervor, thankful that Mitchel had shielded Raegan so effectively.
As the headlights of the pursuing car flashed in her rearview mirror, Nicole grew tense and quickly said, Raegan, I cant talk right now. I have an urgent matter to handle. Lets talk tomorrow
Just as Nicole reached to hang up the phone, a loud crash echoed!

became dazed. She thought about the possibility of dying today and realized she couldnt depart without uttering a few final words.
Struggling to breathe, Nicole said, Raegan, please tell Austin Tell him I love him. My love for him never ceased
Despite Nicoles severe animosity against Jarrod, her affection for their son, Austin, had always prevailed. He was the core of her existence, an essential part of her life.
Raegan, increasingly anxious, responded, Nicole, dont frighten me. Whats happening? Where are you? Im on my way to find you!
Unsure if there was enough time, Nicole pressed her hand against her bleeding forehead. Blood was seeping between her fingers, yet she attempted to start the car.
Raegan, and one more thing. Could you relay a message to Roscoe for me? Nicole said, bracing herself against the pain.
Please, take your time. Theres no rush. Just share with me Where are you currently? Im going to find you! Raegan implored anxiously, attempting to soothe Nicoles distress.
Tell Roscoe as long as hes alright, Im happy. Even if he later reclaims the memory about me, please tell him not to harbor guilt
These were the sentiments Nicole wished to express to Roscoe. She understood him deeply. Should his memories resurface one day, he would loathe himself for his past deeds. For now, in his state of amnesia, everything Roscoe undertook was innocent.
Unaware of his past, Roscoe was spared the weight of responsibility and could simply adhere to Miguels instructions without encountering any obstacles.
