The Schultz Group, whose reputation had taken a hit due to some scandals previously, quickly became the talk of the town.
With the widespread praise for Jarrods deeds, the stock price of the Schultz Group soared, increasing significantly overnight.
Currently, numerous media outlets were outside, eager to interview Jarrod.
Yet, if Jarrods earlier statements about lacking any intention to save those abducted girls were broadcasted, the media frenzy might dissipate and the attention would weaken.
Im sorry, miss. Mr. Schultz suffers a head injury. Alec gestured to his own head and said to the girl, Hes a bit disoriented right now. Kindly dont take his words to heart. Hell be back to normal once hes recovered.
The girl felt somewhat relieved and asked with concern, Is he hurt anywhere else?
Alec shook his head. No, he just needs some rest. Miss, why dont you have a proper rest as well?
Having finally coaxed the girl to leave, Alec hastily shut the door and turned to Jarrod, asking anxiously, Sir, why did you say that to that girl? Do you realize the stock price of the Schultz Group has skyrocketed because of your deeds? Moreover, the companys reputation is enhanced significantly, and the media outlets are covered with your selfless actions. Cast all aside, you did save an entire truck of abducted girls. Isnt it the truth?
Of course, Alec understood why Jarrod said those words to the girl.
Jarrod did mean his words. He was never the type to raise an eyebrow on someone elses matters. Never in his life would he act out his character and go all the way out just to save someone without a reason. Had it not been for Nicole in danger, he wouldnt have investigated and intervened, and the rescue would never have occurred.
Alec added, Your motive doesnt matter. Anyway, you had indeed helped save everyone on that truck. Why deny that?
Jarrod ignored Alecs comment and asked directly, What about her?
Alec sighed silently, knowing Jarrod hadnt heeded his words at all.

As long as Nicole was involved, Jarrod wouldnt take advice from anyone else.
She left early in the morning, Alec replied, visibly annoyed. If you hadnt saved her, she would have been at the mercy of those crazy guys, likely being severely beaten and tossed into the crocodile pool. Yet, she didnt even show any gratitude and just took off. Its really too much!

.
Years ago, while overseas, Alec had heard about the brutal nature of those perverts reveling in the ruthless tortures they had inflicted on the abducted victims.
That place seemed like a gathering for those gruesome murders or insane individuals whose tactics in tormenting people or any Living soul went beyond imagination. They seemed to glean pleasure from others suffering, their mercilessness knew no bounds.
The Schultz Group had been staying away from the grey areas, ensuring its permission to operate within Ambrosia. As known to all, Ambrosia valued its strict enforcement against such industries, showing no tolerance for illegal activities.
Thus, those dangerous elements never got the opportunity to cause devastation in Ambrosia.
This time, the police of Ambrosia had only managed to capture some minor accomplices while the real masterminds were still overseas.
That group of perverts would surely seek revenge for their loss, especially since their local base had been destroyed.
By saving Nicole from their clutches, Jarrod had practically provoked them, which Alec deemed not worthwhile.
Miss Lawrence doesnt know how to show her gratitude at all. Ugh! Im kind of used to it. No matter how kindly you treat her, she only responds with hostility, Alec commented, complaining. Shes heartless! Mr. Schultz, dont let her fool you anymore!
Jarrod ignored his speech and asked, Whats the date today?
