Love Unbreakable

Chapter 455

Jarrod peered at Nicole with intense eyes.

Nicole grinned. "Jarrod, did you really think I'd fall for such an obvious trap?"

Nicole had left the documents at home, arranged for someone to pick them up later, and sent them to the police. Meanwhile, she carried an encrypted file envelope as a decoy, leading Alec to capture her.

Hearing this, Alec ripped open the file envelope on the table, finding it empty. Enraged, he grabbed Nicole, pinning her down and restraining her hands. "You dare deceive me, you wretch!" His knee pressed down firmly, his expression fierce.

Having survived through cunning and force alongside Jarrod for years, Alec had hidden his true self under suits and ties. But deep down, he was still the ruthless enforcer who inspired fear.

With his knee pressing down, making it hard for Nicole to breathe, Alec threatened, "You've got some nerve, setting Mr. Schultz up. I'll end you right now!"Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Nicole, unable to move and struggling to breathe, refused to plead for mercy from such a person. To her, Alec was no different from Jarrod.

"Release her," Jarrod ordered icily.

Alec, upset, argued, "Mr. Schultz, this woman has caused you so much pain. Please, don't be soft on her again. She's heartless!"

Finally, Alec expressed his worries.

Jarrod had endured a harsh life for the past five years, punishing himself for his past actions. Alec had hoped Nicole's return would bring some improvement. But instead, she seemed determined to harm Jarrod, showing no mercy.

Alec's intense hatred for Nicole was evident. He wouldn't think twice about ending her life if Jarrod ordered it.

"I told you, release her." Jarrod's tone brooked no argument.

Reluctantly, Alec obeyed.

On the ground, Nicole struggled for breath, coughing uncontrollably.

Jarrod stepped forward, offering a hand to help her up.

But Nicole slapped it away, repulsed. "Don't act like you care!"

Still, Jarrod grabbed her hand, pulling her forcefully into his arms.

Nicole's face went pale, protesting. "What are you doing? "Let me go!"

Jarrod seemed unperturbed, as if her scheme was expected.

Then, an unexpected visitor arrived. It was Roscoe, who had heard of Nicole's capture and fought his way in, worried for her safety.

Seeing Nicole struggling, Roscoe seemed ready to confront Jarrod, but was blocked by Alec.

Having already fought off the guards, Roscoe was no match for Alec. "Nicole, don't worry. The police are here..."

At Roscoe's words, Jarrod's expression darkened. Roscoe and Nicole seemed quite intimate.

Nicole, witnessing Alec's aggression against Roscoe, glared at Jarrod. "Make him stop!"

Jarrod was deeply irritated by her demand. His jealousy ignited, turning into rage as he held her tighter.

"Let me go!" Nicole continued to resist.

Then, Jarrod's anger morphed into a sinister grin, overwhelming in its intensity. He said to Roscoe, "Watch closely. See who she belongs to."

Then, with a forceful grip, Jarrod seized Nicole by the neck, pinning her against the wall, and kissed her fiercely, almost lifting her off the ground.

The kiss, aggressive and dominant, caught Nicole off guard, feeling more like a punishment than an act of affection. Her struggles were futile against his superior strength.

Meanwhile, Roscoe, grappling with Alec at the door, yelled, "Release her, you lunatic!"

Jarrod finally let Nicole go after his forceful demonstration. Cupping her cheeks, his eyes tinged with red, he chillingly grinned. "Nicole, you can't beat me, and I won't ever release you again."

His tone was cold, like a curse, sending chills down Nicole's spine.

At that moment, law enforcement officers reached, asking, "is Mr. Jarrod Schultz here?"

Jarrod let go of Nicole, composed. "That's me."

The officers flashed their badges and then stated, "Mr. Schultz, we've received reports implicating you in financial fraud and illicit backstage dealings. Please come with us for questioning."

"Okay," Jarrod responded calmly, without resistance.

Passing by Alec, Jarrod instructed, "Take care of her."

Take care? Alec was seething, wanting nothing more than to be rid of Nicole. But he wouldn't disobey Jarrod, nodding. "Understood."

Jarrod glanced back at Nicole, his smile unexpectedly gentle.

Nicole couldn't understand what amused him. Feeling a cold shiver, she watched his calm departure, deepening her

unease.

At that moment, Nicole saw once again the unyielding, ruthless Jarrod, who stopped at nothing, showing no vulnerability. This realization weighed heavily on her, making her feel weak.

Roscoe immediately supported her, his face full of concern. "Nicole, what's wrong?"

Feeling drained, Nicole leaned heavily on Roscoe's arm. Everything felt surreal to her.

Roscoe gently reassured her, "Nicole, don't worry. Let's head back."

Nicole nodded.

As they prepared to leave, Alec blocked their path. "Feeling under the weather, Miss Lawrence? Need a doctor?"

His tone dripped with sarcasm. Nicole caught his implication and replied icily, "No, thanks."

Alec's mockery grew. "Well, if you change your mind, let me know. Mr. Schultz made it clear I should take care of you." "Step aside." Roscoe's stare turned cold.

In this world, aside from Jarrod, Alec feared no one. "Mr. Watts, huh? Watch you don't fall and crack your skull," Alec threatened.

Roscoe's gaze darkened. "Seems Jarrod's not great at disciplining his people. Feel free to visit the Watts residence for lessons."

The Watts family's dark past was infamous, especially Roscoe's father's ruthless youth, said to be colder than Jarrod. Despite his illegitimacy, Roscoe was a prized Watts.

Alec considered his odds against Roscoe, unsure of his chances. That was why he only blocked and subtly interfered, avoiding a direct confrontation.

Since Jarrod hadn't declared war on the Watts family, Alec didn't want to make enemies recklessly. He quipped, "Becoming Mr. Watts sure changes your vibe."

Roscoe smirked, guiding Nicole away, ignoring Alec.

But Alec couldn't resist teasing, "Mr. Watts, don't be naive. Your tricks won't make much of a difference."

Nicole, unable to hold back anymore, turned around and retorted. "Even ants can move things much bigger. Why are you so sure the Schultz family will come out unscathed?"

Alec's expression turned scornful. "You underestimate Mr. Schultz, Miss Lawrence."

Nicole grinned. "Alec, do you know what's happening outside while you're here chatting with me?"
