Tears gathered in Nicole’s eyes, as her resentment toward Vicki grew.
Vicki had destroyed a life without remorse.
Looking up at Jarrod, Nicole’s voice was resolute.
“I will never forgive the person responsible for this.
”
Jarrod understood her intent.
“Don’t worry.
I’ll stay out of it.
”
“I hope you mean that,” Nicole responded, wary of stirring conflict with him at such a critical time.
Their situation was dire,pounded by her uncertainty about Roscoe’s condition.
Considering Miguel’s notorious cruelty, the prospects were grim.
It seemed Jarrod was the only hope of navigating this crisis.
Jarrod quirked an eyebrow, his smirk yful.
“What’s on your mind? Isn’t it my son who’s in danger?”
“It’s good you recognize that,” Nicole retorted.

Reassured by Jarrod’s promise to remain uninvolved, Nicole felt a weight Lift from her shoulders.
She was confident that justice would reach Vicki.
The hospital staff advised them to leave for now, as there was nothing more they could do.
The blood purification wouldn’t begin today.
They first had to cleanse the toxins.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
Moreover, specialized staff were avable to care for Kamh.
Realizing her presence in the hospital was futile, Nicole decided to return home tofort Austin, who was anxious about Kamh.
Once back at the vi, Nicole found Austin waiting, visibly distressed and sleepless.
Nicole reassured him, “Don’t worry, Austin.
Kamh will pull through.
Let’s pray for her recovery and for fortune to favor the kind-hearted.
”
Austin nodded and then hesitated.
“iihat’s wrong?” Nicole inquired.
“Mommy, I’m not a kind person,” Austin confessed quietly.
“Why do you think that?” Nicole asked gently.
“I wanted to see you, so I pretended to obey and tricked that bad woman,” Austin said.
“I lied to her.
It was something bad.
”
Nicole could see Austin was still grappling with guilt.
She held his shoulders and said, “Austin, protecting yourself is not wrong.
Making temporarypromises for your safety is sometimes necessary.
”
Austin looked puzzled.
“But Roscoe said we shouldn’t be bad just because others are bad.
”
A wrong could never turn into a right, no matter what the intention was.
One cannot simply justify actions by good intentions alone.
This was a lesson from Roscoe.
Sadly, Austin had only grasped the superficial meaning, missing the broader implications.
Nicole rified, “Roscoe’s words were about maintaining our integrity.
Just because our circumstances force us to act, doesn’t mean we be bad.
In a crisis, it’s essential to protect yourself first.
You did more than that; you also gave Kamh a chance.
The photos you took immediately showed the experts the type of poison they were dealing with, bypassing the need for initial tests.
This hastened her treatment and improved her chances of recovery.
You’ve done an outstanding job, Austin.
Do you realize how crucial your actions were?” Nicole offered these words to bolster his spirits.
Nicole had spent little time with Austintely, and worried she might say something he wouldn’t understand or that would confuse him.
