The officer simply treated her as if she was unreasonably making a scene while she saw herself otherwise.
Vicki was livid.
She shouted, “Can’t you speak properly? Do you want trouble?”
The officer smoothed her uniform and retorted, “Did I misspeak? By your logic, couldn’t I im that you’re making inappropriate advances toward me?”
The young officer’s sharp retort left Vicki at a loss for words.
Nicole watched the exchange with a smirk.
“Miss Hampton, do you still think these officers are like your household staff, tomand as you wish?”
Seeing Nicole, the very one who had involved authorities, Vicki’s anger boiled over.
She pointed at Nicole and used, “She’s a murderer! She tried to kill me! Why aren’t you arresting her?”
The officers on duty considered Vicki a troublemaker.
Based on the evidence, it seemed Nicole was actually the victim.
Vicki rambled wildly, sounding unhinged as she eximed, “They’re no good! They hurt people and then pinned it all on me!”
Despite Vicki’s absurd ims, Nicole noticed the fear in her eyes.
“Vicki.
” Nicole called her name gently and asked, “Are you having second thoughts?”
Vicki’s face shifted, her eyes widening as she stared back at Nicole.
With a detached tone, Nicole stated, “Ha

“You maniptive woman!” Vicki yelled, “You’re exploiting Jarrod to get back at me, aren’t you!”
“Yes.
” Nicole didn’t bother to hide her motives.
If Vicki hadn’t persistently targeted Austin and Kamh, she wouldn’t have feltpelled to marry Jarrod.
Now, tied down by their marriage, leaving Jarrod would beplicated.
Vicki was stunned by Nicole’s blunt confession.
She viciously said, “Jarrod will never forgive you.
You think you can use him and just walk away?”
“Do you think he’s unaware?” Nicole replied calmly.
Her words struck Vicki deeper than the revtion of their marriage.
The impact was devastating.
In Vicki’s view, the fact that Jarrod, always soposed, would make such a decision knowing Nicole’s intentions, was truly terrifying.Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.
His sacrifice for Nicole seemed unparalleled.
Vicki felt real regret.
Had she known better, she would have stayed under the radar and not meddled with Nicole and Austin.
Then, she might still be joyfully anticipating her own wedding.
Desperation creeping into her gaze, Vicki blurted out, “Divorce him now.
If you leave him, I’ll pay you a lot of money.
Leave this country with Austin.
Would you consider it?”
Nicole scoffed.
“Miss Hampton, do you really mean that? Or…”
Nicole hesitated and then asked, “After this, you won’t see us as irritants and try to eliminate us or set traps, will you?”
