Chapter 1415:

? ? ? ? ?

Nicole was determined to care for Austin until he reached adulthood, regardless of her own health issues. If necessary, she would appoint a trusted guardian to ensure his well-being until then.

Although Jarrod was wealthy, his principles and the risks inherent in his lifestyle did not promise a safe environment for Austin. As a mother, she could not stand by and watch her son exposed to such dangers.

Nicole therefore reiterated: "I insist on keeping custody of Austin. Keeping him with you is not doing him any good."

Jarrod's face remained impassive, his inner turmoil masked by a calm exterior. He had watched the recording, stunned by Vicki and Doreen's merciless attack on Nicole.

She was well aware that Nicole's resistance was for Austin's own good. However, the easiest solution was within Nicole's reach. She would simply turn to him for help. She simply refused to consider it. Could he be so bad in her eyes?

Regaining his composure, Jarrod nonchalantly replied, “Are you sure you want to fight for custody of Austin?”

Nicole held her breath, fully aware of the gravity of her decision.

I honestly wanted custody of Austin because it was the only way to make sure Austin was safe and sound.

Given Austin's fragility, it was vulnerable to even minor damage.

This was the main reason why Nicole had done everything she could to prevent Vicki from marrying Jarrod.

Although Austin's recovery was slow, the doctor had recently assured Nicole that her condition had markedly improved and that the planned donation should go ahead without a hitch.

Because of these events, Nicole knew she had to bring Austin back to her side to make sure everything worked out. Failure was not an option as it would leave her with lifelong regrets.

“Of course…” Nicole began to speak.

However, she was interrupted when Jarrod gently placed his finger on her lips and whispered, “Shh.”

The slight roughness of his fingertip sent a shock through Nicole.

He felt his skin crawl and instinctively took a step back.

Instead of backing away, Jarrod stepped forward, smiling slightly.

"Nicole, if you really want this, you have to prove your sincerity."

Started, Nicole quickly took another step back and asked, “What do you want?”

Before she could regain her balance, her hot breath was upon her.

Jarrod pinned Nicole against the closet and planted a fierce kiss on her swollen lips, as if testing her. Then he deepened the kiss, biting her lips hard.

Jarrod's scent of alcohol froze Nicole for a moment, and then she reacted by pushing him back.

To her dismay, Jarrod bent his knees, trapping her legs, and kissed her hard. He grabbed the back of her neck and continued the brutal kiss, biting her intensely.

Nicole tried to escape his aggressive advances, but her efforts seemed futile.
