Love Unbreakable

I Chapter 406 Play The Game I Slowly I Having seen a handsome man like I pveer) Doreen found it hard to be impressed by just any man. Despite the attention of numerous wealthy I suitors, none caught her interest.

Instead, she was drawn to a recently acknowledged illegitimate son of the Watts family, Roscoe.

People said Roscoe wasn't a good match for Doreen.

The Watts family, despite their wealth and influence, viewed Roscoe's position as complicated due to his illegitimacy.

Roscoe's brother, the current head of the Watts family, was well over 40. The revelation of a twenty-something half- brother didn't sit well with him. He

I was against it but couldn't overrule his I father's decision to bring Roscoe into the family.

I I At a social event, Doreen found herself I captivated by Roscoe upon meeting I him.

I ; : When Doreen mentioned this to I Jarrod, she didn't anticipate the Watts I family arranging a blind date with I Roscoe so swiftly.

Doreen was charmed by Roscoe's bright eyes. Gathering her courage, she attempted to feed him. "Roscoe, would you like to try this?" But Roscoe seemed distracted.

With a shy gesture, Doreen moved the spoon toward his mouth, "Roscoe, please try this..." Then suddenly, "Clap!" The spoon was struck from her hand and fell to the floor.

I Doreen was stunned, feeling the sting I on her finger. She looked at Roscoe in I disbelief, wondering if he was the one I who had knocked the spoon away.

Roscoe avoided her gaze and muttered, I "Sorry, I didn't notice it." Doreen's discomfort eased slightly. It seemed Roscoe hadn't done it deliberately.

The incident caught Jarrod's eye.

"Doreen, are you alright?" Jarrod inquired, shooting a stern look at Roscoe.

Doreen smiled and said, "I'm fine. I didn't hold it steady and spilled it on myself. I'll go change my clothes." Doreen cherished her appearance, and she detested any exhibitor stains.

Being particular about her appearance, Doreen always carried extra clothes for such situations.

I Doreen glanced flirtatiously at Roscoe I and asked, "Roscoe, could you fetch my I change of clothes for me?" ! 4 I : I Roscoe observed Nicole's red lips as she indulged in the Shrimp and Grits, I savoring them as if they were the most I delectable delicacy in the world. He felt a surge of discomfort.

With a smile, Roscoe took the key and departed.

Jarrod's gaze lingered on Roscoe.

Roscoe appeared much calmer and more composed than before.

Loosening his tie, Jarrod regarded Doreen with an expressionless gaze.

"Doreen, it's fine to enjoy his company, but don't get too attached. He's not worthy of you." At that moment, Nicole's grip on her spoon tightened.

Doreen was visibly upset by the

I comment. She sulked. "Jarrod, please I don't speak ill of Roscoe. He's a true I gentleman and treats me well." { I { I Their acquaintance was barely a day old.

I I Roscoe had hardly talked, being cold to I ' Doreen.

Yet, love often colored one's perception, leading to self-deception.

Jarrod raised an eyebrow, glanced at Nicole, who was focused on her meal, and inquired, "Really? How exactly has he been treating you well?" Caught off-guard, Doreen feigned bashfulness. "Jarrod, you're being too nosy. Why must you know everything?" Jarrod, toying with a cigarette, responded quietly, "If it makes you happy, then let it be. But remember, men like him won't just be with you.

They'll be with others too." I “Jarrod, what are you referring to?" I Doreen feared Roscoe might overhear ( I Jarrod's remark. Moreover, there were [eda people present. She disliked I Jarrod's disparaging remarks about I Roscoe.

Nicole's hands clenched tighter, her discomfort growing since she felt repulsed by Jarrod's attitude.

Observing Nicole's strained hands, Jarrod talked softly, "Thinking an illegitimate son can join our family is wishful thinking on his part. He is fortunate enough to spend some time with you." "Jarrod, lower your voice!" Doreen caught sight of Roscoe approaching from the corner of her eye, stirring a pang of guilt within her. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Did you feel comfortable with him

serving you?" Jarrod looked at Nicole I and asked abruptly. His focus was solely on her.

I I Doreen was puzzled, about to respond \ when a sudden cough interrupted.

I I "Ahem..." Nicole's cheeks flushed as * she coughed continuously.

Jarrod, offering a pat on Nicole's back, commented coldly, "No rush. We're just getting started..." His words held a meaningful message.

"Ewww..." Suddenly, Nicole retched.

Jarrod's expression darkened.

The next instant, Nicole vomited.

Nicole's vomiting was so severe that Jarrod was splattered with it. The undigested food was evident in the mess.

Jarrod's expression turned grim.

I "Sorry, I..." Nicole managed to say I between gasps, feeling a sharp pain in I her stomach.

( : I But she was unable to continue as she I vomited once more. "Ugh!" J I She quickly stood up, covered her mouth, and dashed to the restroom.

Jarrod, now smelling of the vomit, looked visibly upset.

A waiter approached and suggested, "Sir, we have facilities here where you can freshen up. There's a room available for you to change." Jarrod, his expression unchanging, nodded in agreement. Once he received some clean clothes, he went to change, his mood clearly soured.

Doreen too decided to change her outfit.

Inside the restroom, Nicole managed

I to expel all the Shrimp and Grits she I had eaten. Yet, the nausea lingered.

I After exiting the stall, she rinsed her I .

I mouth and washed her face, trying to regain her composure.

When she looked in the mirror again, she saw Roscoe's reflection.

Roscoe was casually leaning against the wall, hands in his pockets, seemingly waiting for her.

The room fell into a quiet, with neither of them breaking the silence.

Their eyes met in the mirror's reflection.

Memories of their past life abroad surfaced in Nicole's mind. Roscoe used to cook for her during weekends and even helped with childcare.

Despite his youth, Roscoe was surprisingly adept at looking after kids.

Nicole had always been hesitant to i handle the delicate child, but Roscoe naturally had a way with the little one.

I As a result, Austin grew fond of Roscoe.

Upon reflecting, Nicole acknowledged that her life shouldn't be that carefree.

I Her parents couldn't find peace. They awaited the day when she would bring them justice.

Behind her, Roscoe's voice broke the silence. "Nicole, I didn't." Nicole's heart raced upon hearing him.

Just those few words conveyed a whole message to her.

After years of shared understanding, Roscoe knew Nicole grasped his meaning. He was clarifying that he wasn't in any relationship. Even without her asking for it, he felt compelled to explain.

Stepping closer, Roscoe met Nicole's

gaze in the mirror and affirmed, I "Nicole, I will always be faithful to i you!" 4 (ee. / ; I His love burned passionately, and his promises held formidable strength.

I / Yet, Nicole didn't dare to reciprocate I his feelings. She was on a challenging path, fraught with obstacles. It wasn't I right to drag anyone else into her troubles.

With a cool demeanor, Nicole responded, "Roscoe, your actions are your own concern, not mine!"
