Nicole tensed, then clenched her teeth and answered, “He’s my child, mine alone.
”
At this, Jarrod let out a coldugh.
“Your child, very well!”
Jarrod’s tone grew chilling as he echoed her words.
“Alec!” He called out.
Alec promptly appeared at the doorway, “Mr.
Schultz, what do you need?”
“Throw that child out of the window!” Jarrodmanded, his voice brutal and merciless.
Alec stood frozen, his body rigid with shock.
Nicole’s nails wed into the carpet fiercely, one fingernail snapping and bleeding, creating a terrible sight.
“Are you deaf?” Jarrod’s voice was cold.
“Do it now!”
Alec nodded and said, “Alright.
” He was prepared to follow orders, no matter how extreme, even if Jarrod demanded he cut out his own heart.
“No! Don’t!” Nicole’s scream shattered the silence.
She couldn’t hold back any Longer.
Jarrod was pushing her to her limits, forcing her to confess.
“Jarrod, have you lost your mind?” Nicole yelled in a panic.
“That’s your child! You can’t do this!”
She lunged forward and grabbed at his trouser leg, her grip desperate, her cries muffled by despair.
“Let Austin go.
Let him go.
Take my life instead.
Just spare Austin… He shouldn’t be raised by someone Like you…”Property ? N?velDrama.Org.
Nicole didn’t want Austin to ept Jarrod’s harsh and twisted upbringing.
If her child, born amid such struggle, were to be cruel and heartless under Jarrod’s influence,mitting terrible deeds, then she would have preferred her child never existed.

“Let him go.
Let him be free…” Nicole continued, her sobs violent and unrestrained.
Jarrod grabbed her out of the blue, his face intense.
“Nicole, why did you decide to have this child? Was it to harm me, to deal a fatal blow?”
Nicole was baffled by his usations.
“Then why have him, only to run off with another man?” Jarrod’s eyes burned with rage.
“You want my
child to call another man father? Do you want to die?”
His hands tightened around her neck, choking her.
“I wish I could die.
I truly do.
Everyone I love is gone.
I have no reason to live!” Nicole’s emotions swung wildly between sobbing and hystericalughter as if she had lost her mind.
“But he survived.
He’s just too resilient.
In my frail, disease-ridden body, his vigor truly frightens me.
” Nicole was referring to Austin.
Austin’s birth process was fraught with danger.
Yet, destined to be born, he miraculously made it through.
“Jarrod, I despise you.
I wish you were dead.
Why can’t you just die? It would be better if you were no longer alive!” Nicole was getting more and more emotional.
“Done pretending?” Jarrod said with a cold scoff.
“Too bad.
I’m very much alive, thriving in fact.
And should I die, I’ll make sure youe with me, because I love you so much…”
After uttering these words, even Jarrod seemed surprised by them.
