Chapter 345 Nicole's Staying With Another Man Even though Jarrod tried to sound calm, Nicole could still detect the tension in his voice.

Nicole smirked and said, "Mr. Schultz, a wise person wouldn't call at this hour and ruin someone else's fun." ‘What if I'm not wise?" Despite looking unwell, Jarrod spoke with a force that demanded attention.
