Love Unbreakable

Doreen, buoyed by the flattery, grew even more conceited.

When Nicole returned to cut the cake, Doreen deliberately asked Roscoe, “Roscoe, do you know what I wished for just now?”

Roscoe remained silent, his indifference palpable.

He regretted trying to get along with Doreen.

How could he have ever been drawn to someone so quarrelsome and aggressive? Those rumors of him once falling for her must be incorrect.

Lately, Roscoe had been haunted by dreams of a woman with eyes Like butterfly wings and a smile that dazzled brighter than the stars.

She was unlike ordinary girls, her spirit free and courageous.

Quite admirable.

In his dreams, his love for her felt overwhelming.

But upon waking, her face eluded him, and a sense of loss pervaded his thoughts.

He couldn’t recall who she was, but he was certain it wasn’t Doreen.

Noticing Roscoe’s silence, Vicki prodded, “Doreen, what did you wish for? Jarrod and I are very curious.

”

Feeling less isolated, Doreen replied, “I wished for Roscoe and me to start a family soon.

”

Vicki laughed behind her hand.

“Calling that a wish? You’re already close to making it happen.

”

Vicki playfully nudged Jarrod.

“Seems like Doreen can’t wait.

Roscoe is so desirable that Doreen wants to tie the knot soon, or someone might snatch him away.

”

Though the comment was light-hearted, it unsettled Doreen.

She managed a smile.

“Vicki, you’re teasing me again.

”

Vicki grinned, pleased.

“No, it’s wonderful you’ve found your love.

Jarrod and I are truly happy for you.

”

Nicole sliced the first piece of cake and offered it to Doreen.

This time, Doreen accepted it without fuss and then pointed at Jarrod, saying, “The next piece is for my powerful uncle.

”

Vicki’s expression momentarily tightened.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

One couldn’t expect much from a fool, but showing displeasure over a piece of cake was beneath her.

As Nicole presented the cake to Jarrod, he hesitated, scrutinizing it instead of accepting it immediately.

Nicole’s arms grew weary from holding the plate, and what had been a Lively moment turned awkward.

Everyone’s eyes were on the cake.

Vicki, unable to stand the tension and feeling slighted, quickly said, “Jarrod doesn’t enjoy sweets.

I’ll eat it on his behalf.

”

As she reached for the cake, Jarrod suddenly took it from the bottom of the plate and set it on the table.

Vicki’s face stiffened further.

Maintaining her composure, Nicole continued to distribute the cake.

When Nicole handed a piece to Vicki, Vicki fixated on Nicole’s hand, her mind racing.

Had Jarrod’s fingers brushed Nicole’s when he took the cake?

“Please, enjoy it,” Nicole said to Vicki.

It took Nicole’s reminder for Vicki to snap out of it.

She managed a forced smile and replied, “Thanks.
