âThereâs no evidence sheâs poisoning me,â Jarrod interrupted sharply.
Alec, still furious, insisted, âNo evidence? I heard it myself! That woman had agreed to poison you.
â
âWatch your language!â Jarrod snapped.
âSheâs my wife.
Stop making baseless accusations.
â
Despite Jarrodâs defense, Alec continued to view Nicole as a witch, albeit a beautiful one.
âSir, allow me to take a sample of what she gives you and have it tested.
If itâs clean, Iâll kneel and apologize to her.
â Alec thought this was a reasonable solution.
Since Jarrod didnât believe him, they could simply test if any poisonous elements were detected.
âThereâs no need,â Jarrod responded coldly.
âHow can you say that?â Before Alec could argue further, Jarrod interrupted him.
âShut up and drive.
â
With no other options, Alec grumbled as he drove, âJust donât eat anything she gives you.
Better safe than sorry.
â
Jarrod closed his eyes, ignoring Alecâs complaints.
Upon arriving at the office, Jarrod inquired, âHowâs the investigation on Jamie going?â
âWeâve confirmed that Jamie has a backer with considerable resources who funded her extensive plastic surgery,â Alec reported, handing over a file.
âIt cost a million dollars.
They really went all out.
â
âDid you check the account informatio n?â Jarrod asked.
âyes.
â
âIt leads to a foreign bank account, but we canât trace the owner,â Alec responded.
Jarrod frowned, deep in thought.
Alec added, âJamie is still hospitalized, so itâs unlikely that person will show up soon.
But itâs just a matter of time becauseâ¦â
Alec paused and then handed Jarrod a hospital report.
âThis report shows that Jamieâs injuries werenât self-inflicted.
She claims they were from a suicide attempt, but it seems someone else caused them.
â
No one can prove otherwise.
Jarrod skimmed through the report.
âIt seems whoever it was considered Jamie expendable and wanted to get rid of her.
â
âThatâs what weâre assuming.
â Alec nodded.
âKeep an eye on it.
We need to find out whoâs behind this,â Jarrod commanded.
This posed an unseen threat that they couldnât overlook.
Alec nodded and turned to leave, but Jarrod stopped him.
âAny updates on Roscoe?â Jarrod asked.
âWell, thereâs something off about him.
Our investigation uncovered something shocking,â Alec revealed.
âIt turns out Miguel had hired a witch just to control Roscoe, and it appears Roscoe was put under a spell that caused his erratic behavior.
â
Jarrod considered the situation.
âHave our lawyers handle his marriage to Doreen.
Itâs time to end it.
