Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook
Chapter 231

Nicole, You Astound Me Henley's face contorted into a frown, and he tried to explain, "Raegan, pleasehear me out..." "Was it a misdiagnosis from the doctor?” Raegan shot back.

Henley was taken aback.

For a moment, he locked eyes with her.

And then, he hung his head slightly and admitted, “Yes.” Tears welled up in Raegan's eyes.

With a trembling voice, she asked, “How could you lie to me?” Henley dropped his act and smiledfaintly.

"Raegan, can't you see? I’m in love with you.

I want you to stay with me." Trembling with anger, Raegan confronted Henley, "By resorting to lies?""T'll use any means to Keep you by my side,” Henley replied with an unwavering smile.

"Henley, is this really who you are? I thought I knew you.

It turns out 1 was wrong." Raegan grabbed her bag and added, "I'm sorry.

I know you saved me, but what I hate the most is people who lie to me.

I'll cover the medical bills, but let’s never meet again." Henley fixed his intense gaze at Raegan.

"Raegan, I never meant to hurt you." Raegan made her way to the door.

Without even looking back once, she spat, “I hate being deceived." And with that, she left.

As Henley watched her leave, his eyes darkened and looked sinisterly.

Once the door closed, he mumbled, "Raegan, I'll never let you go." By the time Raegan got out of thehospital, it was already dark outside.

She recalled the disappointment in Mitchel's eyes when he asked whether she knew Henley's truecolors.

It struck her how blind she had been.

It was only then that she realized she had never truly known who Henley was.

Though he never had directly harmed her, in retrospect, many of Henley's actions seemed to stirconflict between her and Mitchel.

She had been so naive.

Overcome with emotion, Raegan wanted company, so she headed out to replace Nicole.

Meanwhile, Jarrod awoke in the hospital after two days of being in a coma.

In his unconscious state, he was haunted by relentless nightmares.

In his dreams, Nicole appeared lifeless and was unresponsive no matter how much he called out toher.

Upon waking, panic gripped him, and he continued to call for Nicole.

Jamie, who was standing beside his bed, heard him.

A look of malevolence flashed in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it.

She held Jarrod’s hand and sobbed.

"Jarrod, you're finally awake!” Jarrod offered a half-hearted embrace to Jamie and then tried to get outof bed.

However, Jamie clung to his arm.

"Jarrod, where are you going?" "I need to take care of something,” Jarrod replied, his mind preoccupiedwith thoughts of Nicole’s illness.

Hatred simmered in Jamie, but she did not show it.

Instead, she adopted a softer tone and said, “Jarrod, something happened while you wereunconscious.” “What was it?" “A man came to see Nicole.

He says he’s the father of her child.” "What did you say?" Jarrod asked, appalled.

His expression darkened, and his handsome face was almost terrifying.

"Nicole is pregnant.

And while you were unconscious, she paid off the 80 million loan.

I don't know how she got the money.

She denies the child is his, but we can't be sure,” Jamie timidly explained.

Jamie closely observed Jarrod and was satisfied when she saw his expected reaction.

Then, she dropped another bombshell.

"Jarrod, her illness was a lie.

She doesn't have stomach cancer.

It’s just ulcers.” "How do you know?” Although Jarrod's expression remained unchanged, a crimsonhue spread in his cold, ruthless eyes.

It hinted at a deep, unspoken fury that made others shiver.

"Come in,” Jamie beckoned to someone outside.

A young nurse then entered.

"This nurse cared for Nicole's parents.

Ask her.” Jarrod stared at the nurse with an icy gaze and commanded, "Think carefully before youspeak.” The nurse felt as if her soul was gripped by Jarrod's presence.

She feared that a single misstep could be her undoing.

She didn't dare to fabricate a story and told Jarrod what she had heard.

"Miss Lawrence told her parents that she only had stomach ulcers.

I'm not lying.

You can go to their ward and verify.” In fact, those were Nicole's words to comfort her parents.

Little did she know Jamie would twist them so.

Jamie dismissed the nurse and called in the surgeon Jarrod had met before.

"Doctor, please tell Jarrod about Miss Lawrence's condition," Jamie ordered.

With trembling hands, the doctor handed Jarrod the diagnostic report.

"Miss Lawrence has stomach ulcers.

She paid me to tell others she had stomach cancer.

I'm deeply sorry for the misunderstanding.” Jarrod's expression turned even colder.

Jamie expected a burst of anger, but to her surprise, Jarrod erupted into laughter.

"So, you still think you're qualified to be a doctor?” His laughter was devoid of any warmth.

The doctor, weakened by Jarrod's laughter, stuttered, "I...

1/know I was wrong.

Please, show some mercy.

It was her doing...

Her fault...” Jarrod's hand shot out and gripped the doctor's throat with an iron-like grip.

"you are not deserving of being a doctor!” Clap! Jarrod delivered a slap across the doctor's face.

As if that wasn't enough, he forcefully threw the doctor to the ground, leaving the latter writhing inagony.

Lastly, Jarrod turned to Alec and ordered, "Verify his story.

If it's true, make sure he can never use his hands again.” Such a person had no right to be in themedical field.

Alec nodded and dragged the doctor away.

Jamie patted Jarrod's back and offered reassurance.

"I never thought Nicole could be so devious.

She used this ruse to gather money and clear her family's debt, preventing his father from going to jail.

I'm impressed.

She planned to kill two birds with one stone!" Jarrod grabbed his coat and commanded, “You, headback.” "Where are you going?" Jamie curiously asked.

"Wait for me at home,” Jarrod curtly replied, offering no further explanation As Jamie watched Jarrodaway, a sense of triumph filled her.

She had prepared unpleasant surprises for Nicole! Fresh from the shower, Nicole was greeted by thesound of the doorbell.

Thinking it was a food delivery, she opened the door without a second thought.

To her dismay, it was someone she didn't want to see.

"Nicole, it's been a long time,” the man said with a sleazy smile on his face.

It was Kieran, a figure from her past she had hoped to forget.

“How did you locate me?" Nicole warily asked.

"I have my ways,” Kieran creepily answered.

He then held out a bouquet of flowers and added, "I've missed you.” “Leave this instant.

We're not close.” Nicole pushed the door close.

But then, Kieran'’s expression abruptly changed.

He kicked the door open, forcefully shoved a bouquet of flowers into Nicole's face, and venomouslysaid, "Stop acting hard to get, you ungrateful woman! I've come to claim you!" Before Nicole couldreact, he pinned her to the ground and violently tore her clothes.

Nicole fought with all her strength, but he was too strong.

She couldn't even do anything when he ripped her clothes apart.

Soon, she lay bare.

Out of desperation, Nicole sank her teeth into Kieran's carotid.

Just then...

Boom! A thunderous crash reverberated through the room.

A powerful kick had sent Kieran hurtling backward.

Surprised by the sudden turn of events, Nicole gazed at the intruder in a daze.

Jarrod stepped into the room, one step at a time.

His gaze was cold and ruthless, like a malevolent spirit from the depths of hell.

"Nicole, you astounded me.”
