âJarrod, you saw it!â
Jarrodâs gaze fell upon the two purple marks on Jamieâs neck.
His eyes grew cold and clouded with darkness.
Meanwhile, Jamie continued to cry and make a scene.
âShe wanted to kill me, Jarrod.
Sheâs dangerous.
We need to call the police and get her arrested.
She should rot in prison, just like her father!â
âs BunnyBookery Nicoleâs bloodshot eyes seemed to blaze with even greater intensity at the mention of her father.
She hated herself for not having enough strength and unsuccessfully silencing Jamie once and for all.
With a glare that could cut through steel, Nicole hissed through clenched teeth, âMy only regret is not killing you.
If I had another chance, I wouldnât hesitate to strangle you again!â
Nicoleâs words, laced with deep loathing, caused Jarrodâs eyes to narrow into dangerous slits, and a storm brewed on his handsome face.
âNicole, kneel down and apologize to Jamie,â he commanded in a calm yet icy tone.
When the door opened, the scene where Nicole was tightly strangling Jamie appeared before everyoneâs eyes.
And Nicole admitted it herself.
Nicoleâs intent to harm Jamie was undeniable.
If Jamie persisted in filing a lawsuit against Nicole, the latter would definitely have been sent to jail.
However, this was not the result Jarrod wanted.
So, he planned to let Jamie vent her anger and convince her to let this matter go.
At this moment, his mind was a mess.
But he tried to justify to himself that sending Nicole to prison would not be as entertaining as personally tormenting her himself.
The fall of the Lawrence family was just the first step.
Besides, Nicoleâs parents were still alive and well.
Nicoleâs family was still complete.

In his case, both of his parents died when the Schultz family was in trouble.
Even though he was rich and powerful now, he could never bring their lives back.
Jarrod saw that Nicoleâs face turned pale, but he ignored it.
He convinced himself that she was a deceitful, hypocritical liar.
She didnât deserve his pity.
Besides, he was reminded of all his sufferings.
During his most difficult times abroad, he even had to fight with dogs for food.
What Nicole had gone through was nothing compared to what he had experienced.
Suddenly, Nicole raised her head and burst into laughter.
âYou want me to kneel in front of her? Dream on, Jarrod!â
She only knelt to Jamie on the cruise ship earlier because she was forced by her responsibility to save the Lawrence Group.
But she had already lost the Lawrence Group.
What else did she have to fear?
