With eyes reddened, Jarrod pressed on, “Nicole, if I tell you I can’t live without you, what would you do?”
Jarrod watched Nicole’s face intently, not missing a single expression. But all he could see in her eyes was disgust and hatred.
That was the undeniable truth.
Nicole made no effort to conceal her disgust as she looked at Jarrod.
She just wanted him to know the depth of her hatred. To her, he was nothing but a piece of shit!
“Jarrod, you make me sick!” Nicole yelled.
However, Jarrod remained unfazed by her words. “Nicole, you can’t provoke me,” he replied, smiling. He had shed the irritable demeanor he had five years ago.
“I’m willing to do whatever for you.” With a serious expression, Jarrod gazed at her and declared, “Nicole, I want you back in my life.”

Nicole could only scoff at this. Jarrod had always been so full of himself. And now, he seemed not only arrogant but also delusional.
Nicole leaned in, playfully tightening the tie around Jarrod’s neck with her delicate fingers. “You know, Mr. Schultz, I’m the official interpreter for this damn place. If I go missing, my supervisor will probably alert the embassy right away.”
As she talked, Nicole playfully wound Jarrod’s tie around her fingers, pulling it tighter bit by bit. She teased him with a playful tone almost as if she was pretending to choke him.
“Listen, Mr. Schultz, if you don’t want to end up in a messy international legal battle, I suggest you keep your hands to yourself!”
Nicole warned.
Jarrod felt the tie constricting his neck, nearly choking him, but he remained unfazed, his handsome face calm as he replied casually, “Do you really think that scares me?”
The truth was the organization Nicole worked for was using this occasion to explore a potential long-term project in the country.
Every member was crucial to establishing cooperation. Jarrod couldn’t just forcibly take Nicole away.
But Jarrod wouldn’t simply let Nicole go, for he was wholly insane.
He had a reputation for being wildly unpredictable.

Nicole released Jarrod, despite her intense hatred for him. She knew better than to take such drastic actions.
Leaning on Jarrod’s chest, Nicole smiled and teased, “Go ahead, risk the Schultz Group’s reputation if you want.”
Now, Nicole was by herself, free from any responsibilities tied to her. Being the Lawrence family’s daughter, her reputation had been tarnished long ago with Jarrod’s efforts. She didn’t mind adding some scandal to the Schultz Group.
“Do you really despise me that much?” Jarrod inquired. He quickly realized his question was foolish and quickly changed it. “What can I do to make you stop hating me?”
Nicole couldn’t believe what she heard. It sounded so ridiculous to her that she burst into hearty laughter, her shoulders shaking with each chuckle. “Jarrod, you’re the one who destroyed the Lawrence family! Have you lost your memory of your own doings? How can you even ask such an absurd question?”
Jarrod was uneasy, yet he tried to maintain his composure. “Nicole, your father’s sudden decision to turn against my family back then had indirectly caused my parents’ deaths. In a way, we’re even now, aren’t we?”
