Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook
Chapter 1749

Jarrod sneered chillingly, “You know, if he had just run away, I might have let the Watts family off the hook.

But he had to play the hero.

”

Jarrod grabbed Nicole’s chin harshly and pointed inside, making her focus.

“See that? That’s one of the Watts family, isn’t it?”

Jarrod smirked.

“Roscoe’s father surely knows his place.

I merely took one property off his hands, and he hastily came here with Roscoe, makes a show of discipline right in front of me.

”

Nicole shivered, her eyes filling with tears, her complexion ghostly pale.

It had never crossed her mind that Roscoe’s father had ordered the savage beating of Roscoe himself.

All for a piece of property, Roscoe’s life was deemed worthless.

What about everything Roscoe had done for the Watts family? Did it count for nothing?

Reading her thoughts, Jarrod clarified coldly, “To the Watts family, an illegitimate son is nothing compared to their assets.

”

“You can’t treat him like this.

He’s a person, not an animal!”

Nicole protested.

Nicole banged on the glass in front of her, her sense of helplessness overwhelming despite the proximity.

“No one has the right to do this to him!” she exclaimed.

Jarrod laughed at her naivety and responded, “How can the Watts family not have the authority to discipline a troublesome son? Remember, he chose to leave his medical career to come back to the Watts family.

”

Jarrod slowly unveiled the harsh reality.

“His father only instructed us to keep him alive.

No other conditions.

Even if he ends up disabled, the Watts family would accept him.

”

Feeling Nicole shaking in his arms, Jarrod tightened his hold on her shoulders, trying to reassure her, “Look, Roscoe’s father’s decision shows his concerns to Roscoe.

The worst scenario is Roscoe becomes disabled, so don’t worry too much.

”

If things were up to Jarrod, the consequences would be far more severe than just being disabled.

How could Jarrod be kind and gentle to someone who opposed him! The Nicole standing before him was a

perfect example.

Due to his brief hesitation, she had managed to betray him.

He should have kept Nicole close, never allowing her the chance to leave his side.

Upon hearing this, Nicole’s expression crumbled completely.

The chains that targeted Roscoe’s wrists and knees were designed not to kill but to incapacitate.

If this continued for a few more hours, not only would Roscoe lose the use of his legs, but his hands, which had once healed and saved lives, would also be beyond saving.

No, she couldn’t allow this! Her life was a mess already.

Roscoe couldn’t suffer the same fate because of her! That thought alone could drive her mad, utterly mad!

“Jarrod, what do you really want…” Nicole clutched at Jarrod’s lapels, her eyes brimming with tears as she demanded, “What do you really want? Tell me!”

“Did you ever think of today when you betrayed me?” Jarrod’s lips curled into a slight smirk.

“Nicole, you know what I dislike the most.

You shouldn’t have stepped on that.

Do you really think his suffering stops here?”

Jarrod’s cold smile didn’t reach his eyes, making it even more intimidating than his words.

Suddenly, Nicole’s legs gave out, and she collapsed to her knees with a heavy thump.

“Jarrod, please, let him go.

Don’t do this to him.

It’s not his fault.

It really isn’t…”

Nicole knew exactly who to plead with to make it count.

The directive had come from Roscoe’s father, who was intimidated by Jarrod, leading to this moment.

If Jarrod changed his mind, Roscoe would still have a chance.

Looking down at Nicole, who was pleading from the ground, Jarrod felt not joy but a wave of indescribable frustration.

He tilted Nicole’s chin, his smile insincere.

“Since you’re begging like this, I suppose I must give you a chance.

”

Overwhelmed, Nicole’s mind was too clouded to tell if Jarrod was being genuine or just pretending.

She grasped at Jarrod’s pant leg, her voice shaky.

“Thank you, Jarrod.

Thank you… I’ll keep my promise.

”

“Don’t thank me yet,” Jarrod said indifferently.

He then shook off her hand and straightened the wrinkles she had made on his clothes.

Turning to Alec, he commanded, “Tell Roscoe that as long as he agrees to go abroad and swears on Nicole’s life that he’ll never see her again, I’ll talk to his father and let him go.

”

Nicole remained kneeling, motionless.

Jarrod was too clever, manipulating the situation to make Roscoe swear on her life.

He knew Roscoe wouldn’t agree.
