Jarrod didn’t even bother to hide his body. He didn’t change at all.
He looked at Nicole and asked coldly, “Why are you just standing there?”
It was only then that Nicole moved. When she was only one foot away from the sofa, her wrist was suddenly pulled, and she fell onto Jarrod’s lap.
Since she was unprepared, her hands pressed against his chest. His body felt sticky, making her sick.
Nicole thought Jarrod was dirty. He was very dirty.
Of course, Jarrod read her mind. After all, the expression on her face was very obvious. He chuckled and asked sarcastically, “Do you think you are better and cleaner than that prostitute?”
As soon as Jarrod said this, Nicole’s face drained of color.
Jarrod wrapped his arm around Nicole’s slender waist. From afar, one could say that they looked very intimate. However, Jarrod sneered mockingly, “You don’t like to do it here? How about we go outside then? I think it’s much better. The outside world will finally see how dissolute Miss Lawrence is.”
Jarrod’s words sent a chill down Nicole’s spine. Her grip on his arm tightened, and she Looked at him with eyes full of pleading.
She knew him very well. He meant every word he said.
Last time, she only showed a little displeasure. He immediately got out of bed and let the stock of the Lawrence family plummet to the bottom.
Nicole’s father had a heart attack because of anger and was hospitalized. She came to Jarrod to beg. But no matter what she did, he refused to see her.
Now that he was finally willing to see her, she plucked up all her courage. She had to do everything to convince him. She couldn’t Lose this opportunity again.
Jarrod looked Nicole up and down with cold eyes. There was no doubt she was gorgeous. He knew she was only pretending to be innocent.
While he was abroad these past few years, she must have slept with a lot of men.
At the thought of this, anger surged in Jarrod’s heart. He reached out and tore off Nicole’s blouse without hesitation.
Then he clenched her neck tightly. She choked and was forced to look up at him. Unfortunately, she didn’t see even the slightest trace of pity on his handsome face. Instead, there was only pain and anger in his eyes.
Nicole suddenly felt dizzy. It was as if she was in a boat, sailing in a violent storm.
Jarrod vented his anger on Nicole for two hours.
He got up from her body and stood up.
Then he threw a coat on the floor and hinted at her to put it on.
Nicole picked it up from the floor. But she frowned when the pungent smell of perfume from it penetrated her nostrils. She knew that this kind of cheap perfume was used by those prostitutes.
She frowned in disgust, but what could she do? Jarrod tore off her clothes, so she had no choice. She had to wear this coat. Otherwise, she would walk outside naked.
“Miss Lawrence, why do you look so grumpy? Didn’t you have a good time? Did I not satisfy you?” Jarrod asked harshly. It was as if he was not talking to a decent woman.
Nicole’s face turned pale upon hearing this. At the thought that Jarrod would do it again, her legs trembled in fear.
She couldn’t help wondering where Jarrod drew his strength and energy from. He had just made out with a prostitute. Then he had sex with her for two hours.
Did he still have the energy to do it again?
Nicole took a deep breath to calm herself down. But when she spoke, her voice still trembled.
“Mr. Schultz, can you cut my father some slack? He is in bad shape. He has been in the hospital for several days now.”
“Cut your father some slack?” Jarrod licked his lips. The scar on his forehead became even more conspicuous.
“Did anyone cut the Schultz family some slack back then?”
His eyes narrowed. He looked at Nicole and continued, “Nicole, do you really think your body is more valuable than that prostitute? Do you know why I had sex with that woman first? That’s because, in my eyes, you are lower than those prostitutes.”
Jarrod’s words trampled Nicole’s dignity to the ground. She felt extremely humiliated.
Her body trembled uncontrollably. She felt so weak that she almost collapsed to the floor.
Jarrod approached her slowly. He pinched her chin hard, forced her to look up, and whispered in her ear, “I will spare your father’s life for now. But I can take it whenever I want. His life is in my hands, so be careful not to piss me off. Do you understand?”
Nicole’s jaw was pinched so hard that she was in pain. She uttered with difficulty, “I understand…”
“Fuck off!” Jarrod shook Nicole off violently. Her legs still felt so weak that she immediately fell to the floor. Her knees were scratched, and blood oozed out from the wounds.
Tears streamed down her face and fell to the floor one after another.
She struggled to get up and ran out of the room with her head down.
From a distance, Luis watched Nicole leave the room. It was only then that he walked toward the door.
As soon as he entered the room, the smell of sweat mixed with perfume in the air filled his nose. He squinted and asked with a frown, “Can’t you afford to pay for a hotel room?”
Jarrod didn’t say anything. He sat on the sofa leisurely, took a drag on his cigarette, and exhaled a smoke ring. He looked at Luis with cruelty in his eyes.
Luis wanted to persuade Jarrod to give the Lawrence family a slack for the sake of Nicole. But he didn’t know how to start.
After all, they couldn’t blame Jarrod if he took revenge on the Lawrence family. He suffered so much in the past few years.
Cornell and Audrey were now in the underground parking lot.
Cornell pushed Audrey into the car violently and fastened the seat belt for her.
Then, he slammed the door shut.
Being controlled like this, Audrey was fuming.
“Cornell, let me go!”
She didn’t understand why Cornell was domineering all the time.
However, Cornell just ignored Audrey. He started the car and sped away. His eyes were fixed on the road ahead.
Audrey was so frightened that she didn’t dare to move. She held the seat belt tightly, afraid that she would be thrown out of the car.
At this time of night, the roads were empty. Cornell was free to drive because there were no other vehicles in the direction going to the villa.
Cornell stepped on the accelerator, and the car dashed even faster.
Its mileage kept soaring. When they passed by a corner, Audrey felt like the whole vehicle drifted on the road.
Judging from his actions and expression at this moment, Audrey knew very well that Cornell was furious.
But she was confused. What made him so angry like this?
After everything that happened, shouldn’t she be the one who should be angry?
Audrey was framed several times, but Cornell defended Cecilia all the time. He didn’t care whether Cecilia was right or wrong. And this was what broke Audrey’s heart.
But at this moment, she couldn’t dwell on this matter. Her utmost concern was her and her baby’s safety. She said in a trembling voice, “Cornell, please slow down.”
However, Cornell didn’t seem to hear anything. He kept speeding up.
Audrey could no longer hold back her tears. She was really frightened now. Her stomach felt very uncomfortable. She said in tears, “Cornell, stop the car. I’m going to vomit. Stop… Stop it…”
Audrey could no longer finish her sentence. She covered her mouth and retched.
Cornell still didn’t say anything.
But suddenly, the car came to a screeching halt.
It turned out they had already arrived at Serenity Villas. Cornell drove so fast that it only took them about ten minutes to get home.
Audrey rushed out of the car, ran to the bathroom on the first floor, and threw up.
But her stomach was empty because she hadn’t had dinner yet. She felt very uncomfortable, but she couldn’t vomit anything.
At this moment, a glass of warm water was passed to Audrey. She took it and drank a few mouthfuls at once. It was only then that she finally felt better.
Then she remembered what had happened just now. She turned to Cornell, pounded his chest, and complained aggrievedly, “Cornell, are you out of your mind? You scared me to death. If you want to die, don’t implicate me. I don’t want to lose my life in a car accident.”
When Cornell saw Audrey crying so sadly, he pulled her into his arms and gently stroked her back. Her tears fell and seeped through his shirt. He felt his heart melted.
Audrey suddenly felt a dull pain in her lower abdomen. Maybe the baby in her belly was also stressed out when she was stimulated by fear just now.
She was worried. What if something happened to her baby?
Cornell noticed that Audrey’s face turned pale. He unconsciously felt nervous. He asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong with you?”
At the thought that her baby’s life was at risk just now because of Cornell, Audrey was furious. She pushed him away and snapped, “It’s none of your business! Leave me alone!”
Cornell’s eyes immediately turned cold. He stared at her and asked, “None of my business? Do you really think it has nothing to do with me?”
