Chapter 791


    Nicole forgot about the tears pooling in her eyes. Indeed, she was unwilling to admit her loss, yet she


    forgot that this man might never like her again.


    Forsaking every smidgen of her pride, she lifted her chin as tears streamed down her cheeks like a


    deluge. "Hayden Coleman, please save me! We''re friends, aren''t we?"


    Hayden did not utter a word and shoved her away. After being pushed around by the men, the loose


    wig on her head fell to reveal her bald head. Hurriedly, she wore the wig to cover her bald head in


    which only a few inches of hair strands grew on the shaved part.


    She looked at Olivia, who had a loving Eugene by her side on the couch. Nicolepared her pathetic


    self with that wholesome scene, which eventually made her cry buckets.


    Just how did I end up like this?


    Still, Hayden''s heart hurt since it was the woman he loved after all. So, he averted his gaze onto


    Eugene. "Eugene, what do you say?"


    Eugene raised his gaze to take a nce at him. "Why? Are you going to plead in her stead?"


    Hayden eximed, "She''s my first love!"


    Eugene chuckled. "Well, she''s kinda meh, but I relented for your sake. You''ve seen the wounds on my


    mom, Alex, and Jewel. I don''t think it''s overboard to settle the score with her."


    Hayden''s brows knitted tightly. "What? You''re trying to kill her!"


    Eugene retorted, "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. I don''t care if she dies."


    Hayden knew that having Eugene let Nicole off the hook was out of the question, hence the pleading.


    He deemed it as thest thing he could do for her, considering their past rtionship.


    "Hand her over to the police. Let them decide."


    "That''s too much leeway for her." Eugene''s voice became low.


    "She''s not the one who hurt Ellen!" Hayden reasoned.


    Eugene remained cold. "That is if she didn''t hand over the map. That way, the killer couldn''t havee


    in. If Alex and Jewel didn''te in time, my mother could''ve died! Do you know how scary the situation


    was? Don''t you think that she''s more evil than Lara? My mother is just a stranger to her and yet she


    dared to hurt someone she doesn''t know!"


    "I know, but it''s all because she wants to have you. Please let her go," begged Hayden.

    "She wants to have me? The more reason for me to kill her," replied Eugene frostily.


    Hayden lowered his head in silence for a moment before saying, "Eugene, the three of us grew up


    together. Please consider our friendship and hand Nicole over to the police. There''s no more chance


    between her and I, but I can''t let you do this to her!"


    The feeling he had for Nicole was real, but so was the disappointment. Even if he fell out of love, how


    could he remain unfazed while watching Eugene hurting her? He could not possibly drain away all of


    his feelings within seconds.


    Eugene kept quiet as he stared at the agonizing man with cold eyes. The intention behind calling


    Hayden over was to reveal Nicole''s true color. However, he left out that emotional attachments were


    what hurt the most.


    "I told you that she isn''t worth it." His voice eventually softened.


    Hayden responded, "Just say that I owe you one. You can make use of it anytime you want."


    Eugene sighed helplessly. "Fine. As long as she confesses how she contacted Lara, I''ll let her go."


    It was not until then did Hayden gaze at Nicole. "Spill it. There''s no need for you to hide anymore,


    otherwise, there''s no one else to save you."
