Nicole primped her wig nicely, but she did not rise to her feet. Her eyes were void of emotions as she knew that there were no other excuses she could make up for herself now.

As such, she said to Hayden softly, "Thanks."

He sniggered. "Save it. I just don't wanna remind myself of how pathetic my first love is. No matter how perfectly I think of you, you're not that anymore. I'm doing it for my sake, not you." In fact, it was for the sake of the memories in his head.

She shut her eyes and tears trickled down her cheeks. She rue the day she joined hands with Lara upon infatuation and she regretted the fact that she fell for such a merciless man more than that.

Hayden actually treated her much better, yet she coveted this man.

Just what is so good about him?

Nicole looked at Eugene, who whispered into Olivia's ear. For this woman, he's able to stoop to a cold- blooded man where no one else but her matters.

Still, Nicole did not learn her lesson and pushed herself into the fire by liking him when there was another man who had his eyes only for her.

Even so, she gave him a cold shoulder and expected him to be at her beck and call. In fact, he was a man that had a lot of pursuers lining up for him. Just why did she not appreciate his feelings?

There was also once a man who was willing to sacrifice his life for her. Even if he was not a man of a high status, his feelings for her were genuine, but she consigned him to hell with her bare hands. She definitely had everything coming from all the deeds she had done.

As her heart sank to the pit of the abyss, Nicole took a deep breath. "The last time I met Lara, I told her I saw your mother on purpose, and that your manor is in a secluded place. If you didn't let us in on your own, we won't be able to imagine that there's a utopia in Promise Island nor that your mother's enjoying a happy life. Lara asked me to bring Theodore to pay a visit to your mother. I accepted her request on the condition that we must visit Olivia too, and she had no problem with it. We actually know that it's a revenge plan, not a visit. When Theodore came to me, I found out that he received the same orders from her as well. So, I drew a map of Promise Island for him—"

At that moment, she closed her eyes helplessly as she was aware that everything had ended. Before anyone said anything, Penny roared, "Nonsense! You misunderstood my mother! She's in prison and she's not in the situation to kill anyone! It was you who tricked her into your schemes!"

Nicole snickered at her. "I tricked her? We saw eye to eye on it. I know how much your mother feels wronged by having herself done for when Ellen is leading a free life. Ask Theodore for yourself, about how she contacted him. If she didn't promise to do something against Olivia, I wouldn't have given her any map. Do you think that she's a good person?"

Penny looked at Theodore frantically, "Theodore, please tell me that it's not true. It's your assumption! Please tell me that it has nothing to do with my mother!"

He hung his head low guiltily. "I'm sorry, Miss."

She pounced on him as she grabbed his arm and shook him aggressively. "I don't wanna hear an apology. Tell me the truth. Tell me that my mother didn't ask you to do that!"

He blurted honestly, "Her cellmate passed on her orders to me. She wanted me to kill Ellen. I'm sorry, Miss. I can't lie to you."
