Lowe despised beating around the bush.

He surmised Deniz must have some trick up his sleeve before sneakily approaching him like this.

It would have been wise to have laid it out earlier, letting him decide if he would be interested.

Such a straightforward matter, yet Deniz had been skirting around it for too Long.

Impatiently, Lowe stated, “Deniz, I sympathize with your situation, but I’m afraid I can’t intervene.

You know Jarrod.

He’s going to marry my sister.

I can’t meddle in your affairs.

Seeing Lowe about to dismiss him, Deniz held nothing back anymore.

“Lowe, I’ve got something to show you,” he said, tapping away on his phone before thrusting it toward Lowe.

“I heard Jarrod’s hunting down this chick.

Look who I stumbled upon.

Lowe peered at the photo, lips curling in disdain.

Nicole exuded allure, the type to make men lose their minds.

No wonder Jarrod was hooked.

He’d crawl through fire to have her back.

Sinking into the sofa, Lowe uttered, “Deniz, why tell me this instead of Jarrod? I’m not the one pursuing this woman.

“Because Jarrod’s burned me one too many times.

Can’t trust him anymore.

Coming to you is me being straight up.

You’re sharp, Lowe.

With this info, you call the shots.

And when I’m back in Ardlens, I’ve got your back.

Always.

Deniz’s words dripped with such finesse, flattering Lowe, who swelled with pride.

Next to Jarrod, Lowe felt he was an idle good-for-nothing in Wayne’s eyes.

If Jarrod truly had his back, it would be okay, but Jarrod had been way too ruthless.

Just because of a few words from his that rubbed Jarrod the wrong way, the next day Jarrod had people beat him to a pulp.

Lowe knew Jarrod’s upcoming marriage with Vicki would only spell trouble, never any good.

Given that scenario, he needed to get ready ahead of time.

“Deniz, are you really committed to this?” Lowe inquired.

Deniz was practically ready to do anything to prove his sincerity.

He kept affirming, “Absolutely.

Lowe, as long as I spend my life in Ardlens, I’ll be grateful to you every single moment.

Deniz wasn’t naive.

He knew he would be allowed to come back to Ardlens if he met Jarrod, using the photo of Nicole as leverage.

Yet, he had already taken one hit.

Trying to intimidate someone Like Jarrod was a poor decision.

Lowe served as a stark reminder of that.

Since even Lowe couldn’t outmatch Jarrod, his chances of succeeding would be slimmer.

Therefore, he decided to disclose this to Lowe, an act that could seek favor while gaining an ally for future endeavors in Ardlens.

Lowe peered at photo and advised, “Go inform Jarrod.

Deniz stood there, stunned.

After all the twists and turns, Lowe simply gave him this one instruction.

Wasn’t that essentially the same as him seeking out Jarrod himself?

Lowe pressed on, “Deniz, we’re relatives.

Moving forward, I’ll keep tabs on your matters and lend support.

Just pass on this woman’s whereabouts to Jarrod.

Don’t fret about anything else.

Lowe had his own schemes.

Rather than exploiting Nicole’s whereabouts to threaten Jarrod, it was wiser to inform Jarrod directly, prompting him to fetch Nicole.

That would ruffle the current state of affairs.

Lowe doubted Vicki wouldn’t feel a pang of jealousy when she caught wind of this.

Likely, she would fail to remain as composed as she appeared to be now.

To Lowe, Jarrod seemed under some spell, managing to keep a woman who held a grudge against himself, a move that would undoubtedly seal his own fate.

Once Jarrod fetched Nicole back, Lowe could simply sit back and enjoy the spectacle that followed.

Deniz couldn’t quite grasp Lowe’s intentions, but since Lowe had said so, it meant he was on board with the plan.

Given Lowe’s assurance, Deniz didn’t pry any further and just complied.

Without hesitation, he sprang to action, wasting no time in tracking down Jarrod.
