“We have completed a thorough investigation and have found that the suspect is left-handed. This is consistent with the location of the stab wounds. In addition, he suffers from severe obsessive-compulsive disorder and mysophobia. His meticulous focus on precisely targeting the joints underlines this fact.

This suspect is likely a young man, physically robust and firm-handed, suggesting that he possesses a brutal nature beneath the guise of a polite person. Often, such a stark contrast in behavior can be traced back to a troubled or harsh childhood.

“He has likely already committed similar crimes that have gone undetected. The pleasure he takes in his actions means he will not stop easily. Given his pattern, it is highly likely that he will reoffend, putting anyone connected to his father's case in serious danger. “This suspect is considerably more dangerous than we initially perceived, and it is crucial that you remain extremely vigilant.”

A chill ran through Nicole and her thoughts immediately turned to her mother. Anxious, she asked, “What about my mother? Is she in danger?”

“Don't worry about your mother,” Jarrod reassured her. “I've taken precautions. “If that guy tries anything, he’ll walk into a trap.”

Despite her confidence in Jarrod's competence, Nicole's concern for her mother persisted. "Maybe I should have my mother stay with me. The thought of seeing her alone in the sanatorium makes me uneasy," she suggested.

“It’s not possible at the moment,” Jarrod replies. “The specialist rehabilitation equipment she needs is not available locally. I have placed an order, but it will take two months to arrive. If we brought her home now, we would have to stop her treatment, and the doctors say she is making excellent progress and should not stop.”

Nicole reluctantly abandoned the idea of ​​bringing her mother home, admitting that ongoing treatment was paramount. She then asked, “How much does the equipment cost?” “I’ll send you the funds.” Jarrod had been a pillar of support for her, and she felt compelled to ease the financial burden, especially given the current dynamics of their relationship.

Jarrod commented: “We are still married, so it is joint property. There is no need to make a big deal out of it.”

There was a pause before Nicole replied, “In a few months, we won't be. “I don’t want to cause you any trouble.”

"It's no big deal. I'm doing this so you can focus on having a healthy pregnancy," Jarrod explained, making it clear that his main concern was the well-being of his unborn child.

Nicole found it strange that, given his wealth, Jarrod would take such an interest in the fetus. He certainly had the means to have children with many other women. However, she decided not to press him. Pressing him with this might upset him. If he was willing to handle it, she would let him.

“Thank you,” Nicole said quietly.

“You're welcome,” Jarrod replied.

After making sure Austin was okay, Nicole returned to work to take care of some backlog of tasks. She was preparing for her maternity leave, trying hard to finish as much as possible to keep the company stable during her absence. The company was still in its infancy, and any lack of vigilance could lead to a significant drop in its bottom line.

That evening, Raegan invited Nicole to dinner. It had been some time since their last meeting, so Nicole accepted the invitation. Accompanied by Jarrod's security team, Nicole headed to the restaurant.

Raegan was already waiting downstairs when Nicole arrived. Aware of Nicole's pregnancy, Raegan greeted her warmly, taking her hand and saying, “Jarrod seems to care a lot about you.”

Nicole, somewhat confused, asked, "What makes you say that?"

“Look at this car,” Raegan explained, pointing at the vehicle. “It’s armored, and that bodyguard with the skull tattoo? Mitchel tells me he's one of Jarrod's best men, trained overseas. He's here protecting you now. No small feat.”

Reflecting on this, Nicole replied: “It’s more because of the baby I’m carrying, I think…”

“So what's the story there?” Raegan asked, guiding Nicole to a seat.

Nicole had only briefly touched on the subject of the baby during an earlier phone call, and Raegan was still piecing together the details of this unexpected pregnancy, knowing only that the child was Jarrod's.

“It wasn't planned,” Nicole said flatly. “He told me that if I didn't keep the baby, I wouldn't be able to see Austin. “He’s using the baby as leverage against me.”
