Chapter 2325
Alec was taken aback, not catching on the sudden shift of the gear of their conversation.
“Huh?”
“I asked what the date is today!” Jarrod said, showing a hint of impatience.
“It’s the 26th,” Alec answered.
Hearing this, Jarrod’s tone turned cold as he said, “Today is Roscoe’s wedding day.
”
A sudden realization hit Alec.
It clicked.
No wonder Nicole had left early in the morning.
She must have gone to find Roscoe.
Alec couldn’t help but feel sorry for Jarrod.
Jarrod had endangered his life to rescue Nicole.
However, she was off searching for another man the moment she awoke.
What a heartless woman!
“Get the car ready.
” Jarrod tossed aside the blanket and rose from the bed.
Alec was stupefied.
Jarrod hadn’t recovered yet.
How could he just leave?
Rushing to the door hastily, Alec blocked Jarrod’s way out, his tone firm as he said, “Mr.
Schultz, you can’t leave yet.
Please heed the doctor’s words and grab a proper rest for your severe injuries.
Plus, there’s a slew of reporters outside waiting to snap your photo, even if you refuse to give an interview!”
Jarrod’s expression tightened.
“Step aside!”
Alec stood his ground.
“I won’t! Sir, I know you’re after that woman, but it’s best to leave her be.
She’s not worth the trouble!”
Jarrod fixed his gaze on Alec and said, “I’m counting to one!”
Alec protested.
“Sir, people usually count to three!”
“One!” Jarrod began to count, prompting Alec to swiftly move aside.

His resolve could only hold out so briefly against Jarrod.
“Sir, sir.
Wait for me.
.
Alec grabbed Jarrod’s personal items and hurried after him.
”
Once in the car, Alec said, “Those girls think you’re a_ hero.
They’re all over the media singing your praises!”
Jarrod unbuttoned his shirt and said with a low tone, “I didn’t save them.
” Had it not been for Nicole, the grim fate of those girls would have been inevitable.
Alec replied, “I know.
They praised Nicole as well, saying she was incredibly brave to take down three men by herself, practically a heroine.
But sir, why are we rushing back?”
Alec was confused.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“Roscoe’s wedding is already set, and at this hour, he’s probably already married.
It seems too late for Miss Lawrence to do anything.
”
Jarrod’s expression turned stern.
“Get Miguel on the phone for me.
”
“Okay.
” Alec didn’t hesitate and dialed Miguel right away.
Yet, it was a servant who picked up and informed him that Miguel was sleeping.
Alec was confused.
“It’s incredible.
His son is getting married today, and he’s already in bed.
He’s something.
”
Jarrod’s anxiety grew.
“What about Doreen? Can you reach her?”
