Vicki was well acquainted with Denizs deceitful and malevolent nature. This outcome, however unfortunate, served a greater purpose.
If Nicole were thoroughly ruined, Jarrods interest in Nicole would wane.
Satisfaction washed over Vicki. This twist of fate unfolded precisely as she had envisioned. She harbored no doubt that Jarrod would recoil from Nicole once he beheld the aftermath of Denizs actions. Surely, he would be repulsed at the very sight of Nicole. After all, despite Denizs worthlessness, he was infamous for his lecherous and debased conduct within their social circle.
Pondering this, Vicki found Austin even more endearing. She tenderly caressed his slumbering visage and whispered, You owe your life to your mother.
Under the assumption that Nicole was tormented terribly by Deniz, Vicki decided against harming Austin for the time being.
Denizs countenance flushed crimson with fury upon ending the call with Vicki.
The realization dawned upon Deniz that Vicki had indeed schemed to make him a scapegoat. How cunning and deceitful she had been!
Deniz was not one to tolerate being exploited He made a solemn vow to seize an opportunity to strike back at Vicki.
Nicole maintained her composure, exuding a sense of calm as she awaited Denizs response. She knew she had emerged victorious in this bout.
Sure enough, Denizs gaze betrayed no intention of harm as he Looked at Nicole once more. He realized that Nicole was important to Jarrod, which was why Vicki had put so much effort into setting Nicole up.
Deniz dared not lay a hand on Nicole, fearing Jarrods reprisal.
Jarrods nature dictated an unwillingness to relinquish what was once his, even if he had cast it aside, and should someone dare to do so, they would meet a swift demise.

Deniz had already learned a bitter lesson before, and he couldnt risk enduring another one. A lifetime of worldly wisdom ingrained in him the principle of never stumbling twice over the same obstacle.
Should he provoke Jarrod anew, his fate would be sealed.
What do you want? Deniz inquired, cutting straight to the chase.
There was no need for beating around the bush at this juncture.
Its not about what I want. Youve seen through the situation. Miss Hampton simply wants to make you the scapegoat should anything go amiss. You got away this time, but what about the next? Nicole countered.
Denizs eyes narrowed, revealing a sly demeanor. Do not think you can have sway over me because of this. I have no dealings with Miss Hampton. Since she tries to scheme against me, I wont go easy on her!
Nicole chuckled at his words. Deniz, you truly have a talent for joking.
Disregarding Denizs sour expression, she pressed on. Unless you cut ties with the Hampton family, you wont stand a chance against Vicki, Waynes beloved daughter. Especially considering shes got a formidable fianc like Jarrod, whos about to become her husband. Youll find it even harder to deal with her.
Deniz hadnt anticipated Nicoles profound insight, comprehending every aspect of the situation. She proved to be a truly formidable adversary. Yet, he stubbornly refused to admit it. Even though Vicki is impressive, I dont depend on her for everything.
Deniz found it absurd. He had long surpassed the age of succumbing to weakness when challenged. He was certain no one possessed the power to best him.
Nicole flatly replied, I understand you dont rely solely on Vicki, but it appears you lean on Lowe from the Hampton family, correct?
Denizs countenance stiffened, and he muttered curses under his breath. Nicole seemed to possess uncanny mind-reading abilities. How did she possess such insight?
