Miguel instructed the butler, Find someone to take care of it on the down-low. Sell her in the black market or something. Be meticulous, and ensure she doesnt appear again.
Ill deal with it immediately. The butler left to make arrangements.
Miguel relaxed into the recliner, stroking his mustache, his mind racing. Jarrod had been a big thorn in his side. This time, he was going to set Jarrod up.
Jarrod was the one who had proposed that Roscoe and Doreen should get married. Jarrods keen intelligence suggested he was probably already aware that Roscoe was not the wanted heir of the Watts family and the reason for announcing Roscoes impending control of the Watts Group was simply to make him a scapegoat.
Miguel would not let Roscoe, a child out of wedlock, also known as the very proof of his sowing wild oats amid his younger days and his once-ruined reputation, take over the Watts family. Truth be told, Miguel didnt feel a hint of sorry for Roscoe who was being schemed against to shoulder all the wrongdoings the other members of the Watts family had done.
Ever a shrewd man, Miguel disguised his true emotions well and only revealed his disgust against Roscoe when he was alone.
On her way to work, Nicole got a call from the sanatorium, informing her that her mothers condition had deteriorated.
Nicole instantly flew into a state of panic and requested a night off from Jemma to check in on her mother. Since the sanatorium and Kingbel Club were in opposite directions, she wouldnt be able to reach work on time if she went to the sanatorium.
Vicki had issued strict instructions to the clubs management personnel to not grant Nicole any time off, an order to ensure that Nicole wasnt there to enjoy herself, but to suffer.
Yet, Jemma was on good terms with the management, and after treating them to a hearty meal, they were willing to ignore Nicoles absence.
As long as someone was available to do the work, they werent concerned about anything else.

Normally, employees were only granted two and a half days off monthly.
Despite her uneasiness about asking for a leave, Nicole felt the need to check on her mother under such circumstances.
Fortunately, Jemma swiftly approved the leave request when she heard Nicoles mother was unwell and wished Nicole a safe journey to and from the way to check on her mother.
Nicole requested the driver for a destination change to the sanatorium.
Upon Nicoles arrival, the nurse appeared astonished. Miss Lawrence, what brings you here?
Nicole studied her mother, who was lying quietly on the bed, fast asleep. Her body sagged with relief and she replied, The hospital notified me that my mothers condition had taken a turn for the worse.
Dont worry. She had a seizure in the afternoon, but it passed quickly. Her vital signs are completely stable now. The nurse comfortingly told Nicole, Its nothing to worry about, Miss Lawrence.
Im glad to hear that. Nicole accompanied her mother for a while.
Dora woke up for a bit in between, but she still didnt recognize Nicole.
This was nothing new to Nicole. She visited every week, but Dora never reacted to her. Once, Nicole accidentally ran into Jarrod visiting Dora. Dora seemed more delighted at the sight of Jarrod than Nicole.
Nicole had consulted the doctor about it, who replied it was probably because Jarrod was the first person Dora saw when she regained consciousness, so she felt a sense of familiarity and dependence toward him.
With no solution at present, Nicole didnt make a fuss about it.
