But he quickly cast these thoughts aside. He didn’t think she would die this easily. How could that be possible?
Grabbing Nicole’s collar in anger, Jarrod issued a stark warning, “Remember, you need my permission to die. Otherwise, I’ll ensure your entire family joins you!”
Pain lanced through Nicole’s heart.
She knew that even after her demise, he wouldn’t spare her family.
What humanity remained when one was denied even the right to die?
She felt reduced to a mere puppet, a hollow being.
Summoning her courage, Nicole uttered each word with difficulty, “What if I say the child is yours?”
Jarrod once dreamed of having a child with Nicole.

During their college romance, Nicole often whispered to Jarrod, “Jarrod, I want to have your child!”
Their bodies would mingle together as they engaged in passionate moments. But, as students, they lacked the money to raise a baby and start a family, so they took precautions and decided to wait until graduation.
But that day never arrived.
Years later, when Nicole said she was pregnant with his child, Jarrod’s feelings changed. His excitement turned to scorn and bitterness.
He resented her for cherishing this unborn child so much. In his eyes, it couldn’t be his and needed to be gotten rid of.
Jarrod firmly held Nicole’s chin and questioned, “Nicole, I always made sure you took emergency contraception. How on earth did you end up pregnant with my child?”
Nicole’s jaw ached under his grip. With tears forming in her eyes, she managed to say, “I threw up the pills several times.”
There were times when she couldn’t down the contraception due to stomach discomfort.

She had mistaken it for simple indigestion, not realizing it was stomach cancer.
“What a great excuse for your child!” Jarrod sneered.
“Why throw up?
Were you that desperate to have my baby?”
Nicole’s lips quivered. But before she could respond, Jarrod yanked her chin harshly, slamming half of her face against the seat. His face showed no mercy.
“Don’t even mention this illegitimate child again. Even if it’s mine, I’ll get rid of it. Do you really think you deserve to have my child?”
Jarrod refused to acknowledge the stirring in his heart at the mention of his child. He swore not to let her fool him again. He was determined to eliminate any chance of her doing so.
How dare she say she was having his child?
