Chapter 420 Give Birth To It

Nicole was seething with anger, trying hard to free herself, but her wrist was securely held. She decided not to provoke Jarrod further,

aggravating his wound once was already pushing it. Given his knowing that nature, he might react even more wildly.

Nicole aimed to vindicate the Lawrence family, not to get embroiled in a futile confrontation that wouldn't hurt Jarrod in the least.

When Nicole stopped her frantic attempts to struggle, Jarrod firmly held the back of her head and drew her close to him.

Their kiss was intense. It seemed Jarrod aimed to quench Nicole's fury with his warmth. He found pleasure in her eventual submission to him, and silently appreciated her wisdom in not pushing his limits further. After all, he wasn't sure how he might have reacted otherwise.

The scar above Jarrod's eyebrow added a fierce look to him, and his muscular arms demonstrated his strength, controlling the situation.

Jarrod only let Nicole go after her face flushed from the prolonged kiss.

Nicole's eyes held a deep disdain, and each glance she gave Jarrod pierced his heart with a twinge of discomfort.

Nicole was caught off guard. She had braced herself for him making her exit difficult, not anticipating this turn.

But then she quickly reacted. What did he mean by those words? Was he intending to endlessly take advantage of her? Impossible!

Fiercely, Nicole rubbed her lips, as though erasing an unsavory residue, and snapped, "Don't expect any courtesy from me next time you try anything."

Jarrod smiled and said, "I hope you don't show me any." That would make things more intriguing. He wasn't a decent person from the start, so why should he bother playing the role of a gentleman? That was quite a challenge

for him.

Rendered utterly speechless by his audacity, Nicole decided further debate was pointless. As she got up to leave, he caught her wrist again. Her face flushed with fury, she asked angrily, "What more do you want?"

Jarrod's reminder was almost casual, saying, "Just remember not to cross my lines, alright?"

This was his second warning.
