Chapter 266 Not Want To Give Up

Jarrod used the tip of his tongue to pry Nicole's mouth open and forced her to swallow the medicine. Nicole was so dizzy that she had no strength to resist.

He didn't stop until she took a couple of pills.

He pinched her cheek, feeling angry for no reason.

"When did you develop such a habit of not taking medicine when you were sick?"

Nicole suddenly laughed while tears streaming down her face.

It was as if she heard something funny.

"Of course, I want to take medicine. But have you forgotten that you flushed them down in the toilet?"

Those painkillers were her life-saving medicine.

They were very effective in relieving pain without harming her body.

She didn't know how Roscoe got the medicine.

But he must have had a hard time obtaining it.

Now that Jarrod had flushed the whole bottle into the toilet, Nicole felt like her last bit of hope had disappeared.

Her eyes darkened, and she could no longer see any hope in life.

Jarrod subconsciously narrowed his eyes when he heard Nicole's words.

His grip on her face tightened. He still wrongly thought the pills Nicole wanted to take moments earlier were contraceptives.

He didn't understand why she kept mentioning those pills, which could easily be found in a pharmacy.

Did she really hate being pregnant with his child that much? The more Jarrod thought about it, the more determined he was to have a child with Nicole.

His first child with Nicole was not even given the chance to see this world.

At the thought of this, his eyes darkened.

For the first time, he felt sorry for their unborn child.

"I got rid of those pills for your own good."

Jarrod's cold voice sounded creepy in the still of the night.

Nicole's eyes immediately lost their luster.

She smiled mockingly and said, "Thank you for your kindness then."

But Jarrod didn't seem to care about her mockery at all.

No matter what she said, he would never change his mind.

He would do everything for Nicole to get pregnant again.

Jarrod and Nicole were not on the same page.

At this moment, Nicole felt like a fire was rising from the bottom of her heart.

The flame was getting stronger and stronger.

Since she was a child, she was always kind to others.

She never harmed anyone or done anything evil.

But why was God showing her no mercy? Her father was about to undergo a major operation. She wasworried because she didn't know if she could still be alive by the time the surgery was over. Her eyes were blurred.

It was as if she could not see any hope anymore.

She whispered, "Jarrod, have you ever thought that if I don't take those pills, I may die tomorrow?"

These words were like thousands of needles that pricked Jarrod's heart. He seemed numb from the pain. He looked at Nicole with a straight face. He was about to scold her when she suddenly said mockingly, "But if I really die tomorrow, you can take it as a

wedding gift for you from me, right?" Nicole ignored the solemn look on his face. And her words were more like mocking herself. "If it happens, the death anniversary of the person you hate the most is the same as your wedding anniversary. Well, I have to say it fits you." Nicole had never been so talkative like this before. Tonight, she just said whatever came to her mind without hesitation. While listening to her, the anger in Jarrod's heart surged. But his back was covered in cold sweat. The room was as warm as spring, but he felt a chill in his heart. Jarrod could no longer afford to listen to Nicole's assumptions about her death. He words were like countless needles pricking his heart. He suddenly stood up and said through clenched teeth, "Enough! Don't expect me to pity you with those words." Nicole was stunned for a moment. Then, she smiled and said, "Well, I know you are not easy to fool." Hearing that, Jarrod was relieved.

He knew it.

Nicole was good at lying, and he almost fell for it again.

He thought of their lost child again.

He said in a flat tone, "As long as you are obedient, I won't let you suffer too much. You can even have a good life in the future." The corners of Nicole's mouth curved into a smile.

She retorted, "Obedient? Are you asking me to become one of your mistresses, Mr.Schultz?" Of course, Jarrod sensed the sarcasm in her words. His handsome face darkened at once. However, Nicole didn't show any sign of fear. "Mr.Schultz, since you are so obsessed with my body, why don't you make it into a mummy after I die?" At this moment, Jarrod could no longer restrain his emotions. He instantly went berserk. Why did Nicole always talk about her death? He didn't understand why Nicole was acting like this. Was it only because she hated him? Suddenly, he reached out, pinched Nicole's slender neck, and forced her to look up at him. He said in a chilly voice, "Do you really want to die?" Jarrod's body still emitted the faint fragrance of his shower gel. This was actually Nicole's favorite scent. But at this moment, she felt disgusted with it, thinking it was a smell of a scumbag. Her stomach churned, but she endured it. She said word by word, "What I mean is I will never be your mistress, even if I die. Just thinking about it already disgusts me." Jarrod's temples throbbed. He asked fiercely, "Do you really think you can resist me?" "Who do you think you are? Are you so powerful that you can stop a person from dying?" Nicole retorted indifferently Jarrod was furious, and he didn't intend to hide it.

He wished he could teach Nicole a lesson.

How could she keep provoking him by mentioning death? Nicole's face was deathly pale.

She was like a delicate doll that could break into pieces with a slight touch.

Despite his fury, Jarrod couldn't find a way to vent his anger.

In a desperate move to silence her from talking about death, he lowered his head and kissed her violently.

His thin lips were cold.

He bit her lips hard to vent his anger.

Nicole's stomach churned violently.

A wave of nausea engulfed her, and she could no longer suppress it.

She suddenly pushed Jarrod away, ran to the trash can, and threw up.

But she hadn't eaten anything, so she could only retch.

For Jarrod, her reaction was an extreme humiliation.

Refusing to believe she had stomach cancer, he mistook her retching as her repulsiveness.

Did she hate him so much that his kisses made her feel] sick? At the thought of this, his handsome face darkened.

"Impressive, Nicole! You're really something."

His fierce eyes were filled with cruelty and hatred.

"But you have no choice but to live by my side for the rest of your life."

He then turned around, left the room, and slammed the door shut.

Nicole was relieved that Jarrod left.

She struggled to go to the bathroom and spit out the medicine she had just taken.

After retching for a while, the pills appeared in the toilet bowl, along with blood.

She breathed a long sigh of relief.

Fortunately, her weak stomach had not yet digested the pills.

She was able to spit them out. She got up from the floor, covering her belly. She walked to the washbasin and washed her face with difficulty.

Although she knew she no longer had hope in her life, she still didn't want to give up until the last moment.

It was a long and sleepless night for Nicole.

But in the morning, she got up early, washed up, and put on her favorite dress.

Then, she went to the Lawrence Group for the farewell party in high spirits.

Aside from her, her parents, Wesson and Dora were also present.

They distributed the compensation to the employees together. Most of the employees were loyal supporters of the Lawrence

Group.

When they saw that Wesson had lost weight and seemed to have aged so much, they all shed tears.

Wesson couldn't help crying.

After all, he had run the company for more than forty years and planned to pass it down to Nicole.

But unexpectedly, he had lost everything and even owed a huge debt.

How could he not be sad? He was reluctant to let go of the company.

But unfortunately, this building had to be taken away by the bank tomorrow.

He asked Dora to push him to his office on the seventeenth floor to stay there for the last time.

When they arrived at the office, Dora made Wesson his favorite drink.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

The door was pushed open, and Brett Hammond, Wesson's assistant, came in.

Brett said respectfully, "Mr.Lawrence, I have something to tell you."

"What is it?"

Nicole's father asked in confusion.

Brett looked at Dora stealthily and said in a low voice, "May I talk to you in private, Mr.Lawrence? It's something personal." Hearing that, Wesson asked Dora to go downstairs first.

When only two of them were left, Wesson asked kindly, "Brett, is it about money? If you need anything, just let me know.I will try

my best to help you."Brett looked at Wesson's haggard and old face, feeling sorry in his heart. To be honest, Wesson was always generous to all his employees over the past years.

That was why Brett couldn't help feeling guilty.

Had it not for being blackmailed, he wouldn't have done such an evil thing.
