Chapter 1494


    She had almost never uttered these two words to anyone, but this time, she could not help but to do so,


    as she had truly disregarded his feelings.


    Seeing her bow her head as she admitted to her wrongdoings, Jared felt heavy in his heart.


    With considerable effort, he held her in his arms and said, "I don''t want your apology.I want you to take


    good care of yourself.If you were in my position, would you allow yourself to lose me?"


    Nicole immediately thought of the critical injuries that he had sustained for her.


    Indeed, all she could feel when he was in aa was a deep, crippling heartache.


    "If I have to lose you, you might as well just stab me and let me die, "


    Jared said, his words brimming with a measure of sincerity and gentleness that made Nicole''s heart


    quiver.It was only then that Nicole knew how important she was to Jared, and how painful it would be


    for him to lose her.


    "Remember this.The day you die, I will not be able to live on alone.I will never let go of you, even if it


    means following you to hell and back," Jared said.


    Looking out the window, he did not allow her to look into his eyes and see how serious he truly was.


    His words were akin to that of an oath.


    It reverberated across the room, with each word etching itself into Nicole''s heart.


    Hearing this, she could not help but raise her arms to hug Jared as her heart quivered.


    "The same goes to me.In that case, let us promise that if you die first, I will definitely not let you go


    alone," Nicole answered.


    It was then that questions began to arise.


    Why would she not be the same when she had lost him? Why would she also love him to the point of


    not being able to let go, even in death? Jared never thought that she would actually make this pact with


    him, that he was actually so important to her.


    "Why would I die, silly girl?" Jared said as he let go of her head.


    Then, he gazed into her eyes and said, "You haven''t married me yet.How could I allow myself to die?"


    Unable to help herself, she remarked, "So imprudent."


    To her, he had ruined such a beautiful moment.


    Meanwhile, Jared bit his lips, feeling that she was incredibly adorable.


    In response, he nted a kiss on her forehead.


    However, it was also then that the door to the ward swung open.


    Carl and Zane walked in, and as soon as they saw the scene before them, they were taken aback.


    There, things took an awkward turn, with the duo pondering if they should stay or go.


    Thankfully, Nicole had heard the sound and raised her arms up to push Jared away lightly.

    Seeing that Carl and Zane had entered, her face turned bright red.


    "Mr.Dous...you came."


    ‘That fe, Carl.Didn''t he tell me that he would inform Mr.Spears? Why did he bring him here?"


    Nicole thought to herself.


    Zane coughed and pretended as if nothing had happened.


    And after clearing his throat, he asked, "Are you feeling better?"


    Nicole nodded and replied, Thanks to the Beacon, I have made a swift recovery."


    ‘The things that Martin had invented are truly handy, indeed" she thought.


    At the mention of the Beacon, Zane shot Jared a nce before saying, "It''s pretty useful.Your fiancé


    had arge shipment of Beacons sent over to us.We are ready to distribute them to everyone at the


    base and headquarters."


    Nicole was pleasantly surprised, as she did not expect Jared to actually be so considerate.


    Concurrently, Zane walked up to Jared and asked, ''''How is your body? You have been taking care of


    Nicole for a while now.Are you okay?"


    Zane''s tone of concern took her aback.
