Jarrod couldn’t help blaming himself because his indulgence had helped Jamie turn into such an evil soul. He was to blame.
Nicole didn’t want to watch Jarrod and Jamie arguing and shifting the blame. She hated it. Especially when Jarrod mentioned the loss of their child, she felt even more disgusted.
Nicole pointed at the door and shouted, “Both of you, get out of here!”
This time, Jarrod didn’t refute Nicole, which was very rare to happen.
Instead, he turned to Alec and ordered him to drag Jamie out of the mourning hall first. Then, he asked someone to clean the place.
However, Jarrod didn’t leave. He looked at Nicole and said guiltily, “Nicole, I didn’t know anything about Jamie’s misdeeds until now.”
His voice was so low as if he feared being despised by Nicole.
But even if Jarrod didn’t know about Jamie’s wrongdoings, it was not enough to absolve him. After all, Jamie derived confidence from his indulgence.

Nicole sneered, “Jarrod, are you kidding me? I’ve recorded everything that your wife had said just now. Tell me which hospital you sent my mother to. Otherwise, I’ll expose what she said to the public.”
Nicole knew that the recording alone could not be used as evidence against Jamie and Howe in court. But the power of public opinion was more than enough to condemn them. She knew Jarrod didn’t want that.
Jarrod frowned. “Jamie is not my wife. We’re not married.”
But Nicole just ignored his words. She asked furiously, “Where did you take my mother? I want to see her now.”
No one else could hide her mother’s admission to the hospital from her like this except Jarrod.
Jarrod explained, “I didn’t mean any harm in hiding your mother’s condition from you.”

Nicole was already devastated by the loss of her father. Jarrod was afraid she couldn’t bear another blow, so he hid Dora’s condition from her.
Every word that Jarrod said only made Nicole more disgusted. She felt so dizzy now that her vision was gradually blurring. She had to see her mother before she collapsed.
Nicole looked at Jarrod and repeated word by word, “I want to see my mother.”
“Okay, I’ll take you to her,” Jarrod agreed.
Outside, Jamie still knelt on the ground, choking with sobs. She didn’t want to get in the car.
Jamie had no idea where Alec was taking her. She was so frightened that she cried, “I want to see Jarrod. Take me to him.”
At this moment, Jarrod had come out of the mourning hall with Nicole.
Alec immediately approached him and asked, “Mr. Schultz, what will I do next?”
When Jamie heard Jarrod’s name, she crawled over madly. She fumbled around and cried, “Jarrod, you can’t do this to me. Have you forgotten who saved you before?”
Jarrod stopped in his tracks and asked the driver to take Nicole to the car first.
