Chapter 2562
Had Nicole been susceptible to manipulation, she wouldn’t have endured to this day.
“Interesting.
” Nicole chuckled.
“If a dog bites me, should I ponder why it suddenly turned aggressive?”
Nicole continued, “Nah, I don’t converse in animal tongue, and I certainly won’t sympathize with a beast.
”
“What absurdity are you uttering!” Doreen was incredulous that Nicole likened her to a dog.
She had never faced such an insult throughout her entire existence! “You dare insult me, you venomous woman! Jarrod, witness her audacity to curse me right before your eyes.
Consider what she might scheme behind your back.
Perhaps she even played a part in today’s misfortune!”
Nicole remained unfazed by such outrageous accusations.
Having committed no wrongdoing, why should she succumb to panic? Moreover, she knew very well that she, Doreen, Vicki, and Jamie were fundamentally disparate.
While she upheld a moral compass, they were self-serving beings governed by their emotions.
“You’re overanalyzing.
I would never descend to your level.
If you possess evidence, present it.
I’ll await your expose right here.
”
Nicole relished witnessing Doreen’s shifting countenance.
Nicole chuckled.
Doreen deserved it.
As a victim, why should she reflect on herself? If not for Jarrod’s timely intervention, that bottle of the sulfuric acid could have marred her.
Even if it hadn’t, the acid’s splatter would have inflicted grave harm.
She remained pregnant.
If harmed, the unborn child could have been lost.
Doreen’s actions bordered on attempted murder, thus, regardless of Doreen’s previous suffering, Nicole harbored no sympathy.
Because of being mistreated by others, Doreen sought retribution against her.
If retaliation were justified, she would be the rightful executor.
“Jarrod, is this the woman you cherish? Would you forsake me for her?”
She lacks fundamental empathy! How can you entrust such a malevolent woman with Austin’s well-being? Doreen endeavored to create a division between Nicole and the child.

“Why should I extend my compassion to you?” Nicole found it amusing and replied bluntly, “The current ordeal is a consequence of your actions alone.
My lack of applause is indicative of my upbringing.
Nevertheless, rest assured, it doesn’t hinder my silent support for our country’s justice system!”
Doreen’s face paled with anger, rendered speechless and unable to retort a single word.
In that instant, the wail of police sirens permeated the surroundings.
An officer strode in, inquiring, “Who called the police here?”
Nicole didn’t hesitate, promptly raising her hand.
“It was me!”
“Ma’am, what transpired?” the officer inquired, drawing nearer.
Nicole gestured toward Doreen and remarked, “She attempted to throw sulfuric acid on me!”
Upon spotting the police, Doreen’s legs buckled beneath her.
Earlier, in a blind rage after being assaulted, she had impulsively arranged for someone to fetch her a bottle of sulfuric acid in a bid to disfigure Nicole.
Now, confronted by the law, panic seized Doreen.
She blurted out, “I didn’t do it! It wasn’t me!”
Tears began to stream down Doreen’s face as she assumed the role of a victim.
“Officer, I’m a victim too.
I was r@ped, and the attacker claimed there was someone orchestrating it.
I know who it is.
Officer, I can tell you!”
The officer, unmoved by Doreen’s theatrics, responded with a stern frown.
“Miss, please clarify what you’re saying.

“It’s her! She orchestrated it all.
That’s why I was so enraged and resorted to sulfuric acid!” Doreen exclaimed desperately.
Doreen was indeed resourceful.
Finding turning to Jarrod for help was futile, she swiftly shifted her strategy.
By painting Nicole as the puppeteer behind her assault, she hoped to cast her own heinous act as a crime of desperation, an instinctive defense that might mitigate her punishment.
Yet, the outcome was uncertain.
