Chapter 2161: Chapter 2167

“What do I want?” Jarrod smirked, his hand sliding inside her jacket, “There’s much I could do…”

“You monster!” Nicole shoved him back forcefully, yelling, “You’re inhuman!”

Jarrod’s eyes grew colder, his grip firmer.

“You knew exactly what I was long before now.

”

Nicole shook her head violently.

“I will not go with you, Jarrod.

I’d rather die than go with you.

If you want to take me, you’ll have to take a corpse.

”

Jarrod’s smile was faint, unfazed.

“Don’t be so sure of that.

”

Nicole’s eyes widened in terror.

“What are you planning to do?”

With a sly smirk, Jarrod asked, “Has he been close to you?”

Feeling humiliated and physically overpowered, Nicole realized escape was impossible this time.

Roscoe had narrowly escaped death before.

This time, Jarrod seemed intent on leaving no one alive.

Determined, Nicole understood that begging would only provoke Jarrod to be more ruthless.

She turned to him, intentionally adopting a calm expression to counter his evil intentions.

Wasn’t he just waiting to see her distressed and suffering, to justify his abusive actions? She would not let him have it his way!

Nicole said coldly, “That’s none of your business.

”

To Jarrod, her response almost confirmed her closeness with Roscoe.

He gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with fury.

“Did you enjoy betraying me?”

Nicole laughed.

“Jarrod, I’ve decided to marry him.

My relationship with him is legitimate, not a betrayal.

”

‘s BunnyBookery Jarrod was left momentarily speechless, consumed by rage.

After a brief pause, he exploded, “Nicole, what about your heart? I’ve been kind to you and made every compromise for you, and this is how you repay me, by planning to marry him?”

“Why shouldn’t I?” Nicole shot back coldly.

“Your kindness? Do you mean ignoring my feelings, forcing your way with me in his presence, making me a woman who can no longer face society? Is that your idea of a compromise? Jarrod, such ‘kindness’ are outrageous, and frankly, they’re unbearable.

”

Jarrod was furious yet unreflective of his own actions.

In his view, Nicole was his to control.

She had no right to betray or leave him.

He sneered, “If you had been obedient, I wouldn’t have had to act that way.

What else have you done besides defy me?”

“Obedient? Ha!” Nicole burst out in mocking laughter.

“Am I some pet you’ve trained, Jarrod? Why should I be submissive to you?) If you were seeking a compliant woman, that wouldn’t be difficult to find.

You just haven’t conquered me.

Once I gave in, you’d find me dull and unremarkable.

In the end, it’s always my fault.

You excel at making excuses and are, frankly, despicable!”

Nicole spoke with intensity.

Jarrod’s face turned even more somber.

He smirked and questioned, “I’m despicable, and he isn’t?”

“He respects me, protects me, treats me kindly, and would never hurt me.

He is the finest man alive.

In our relationship, I’m the one unworthy of him.

He’s so genuine, and I’m so flawed,” Nicole expressed this with a slight smile.

She and Roscoe had decided to overcome the obstacles together.

Jarrod was merely another obstacle they would surpass.

Determined, she announced, “In my heart, Roscoe is already my husband.

If he dies, I will join him.

We’ll wait together in heaven, watching your downfall.
