Chapter 799:

? ? ? ? ?

Before leaving, Nicole made sure a nurse delivered a note to Roscoe, who was in the hospital at the time. The note warned him to stay away from the dangerous Watts family.

Roscoe's father was a ruthless man who wouldn't think twice about abandoning his own children when things got tough.

Nicole looked at the time, which read 2:31. Then he looked at the LCD screen in front of him and asked, “Can this screen show the news?”

"Yeah.

"Turn it on," he asked.

As soon as the screen turns on, various news headlines appear, including economic and entertainment news.

An especially shocking piece of news dominated the screen. It showed an uncensored, high-definition video of Jarrod in a club, performing intimate actions with a woman that were harsh and aggressive, bordering on torture.

The comments section under the video was abuzz.

"Wow, do all rich people play like that?"

«Is that Jarrod, the CEO of the Schultz Group? "This is getting a little perverted."

"Even if the woman agreed, her behavior is out of character."

«The things he said were very harsh, almost poisonous. Despite the unclear face of the person on the other side of the glass, it looks like they were hitting him, right?

Nicole stared at the screen. He revealed: "I had a hidden camera with me that day."

Nicole had sensed that something might happen in the middle of her meeting with Jarrod, so she came prepared.

This video would not necessarily lead to criminal charges against Jarrod. After all, both parties had given their consent. At most, he could prove that Jarrod's actions were exaggerated.

However, for the Schultz Group, already reeling from the CEO's arrest and ongoing investigations, this video was another severe setback and challenge.

The imminent shareholders meeting would not pass it by. The loss of important orders and the withdrawal of business partners, under the circumstances, was more than the already unstable Schultz Group could bear.

Nicole's decision to post the video in the wee hours of the morning was strategic, intended to cut off any chance for the Schultz Group to manage the fallout. From here on, Jarrod would face continued problems. Most likely, he received harsh criticism and was even forced to resign. In any case, it wouldn't be easy for him.

Nicole looked at herself in the video, her eyes, once alive, now glassy, ​​hollow and full of defeat.

After a while, Nicole said to Roscoe, in a hoarse voice, as if her throat was burned: "I'm already stained, but Roscoe, you're not. You still have a promising future ahead of you. You don't need to sink with me..."

Having become involved with Jarrod, Nicole considered herself unworthy of someone as pure as Roscoe. The publication of this video only confirmed his belief.

Suddenly, Roscoe felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if it were being torn apart from within. The pain was so intense that for a while it was difficult for him to speak or breathe. “Nicole, you are perfect for me, like the moon,” he said, his voice breaking as he pulled her into a hug. "This hurts you, doesn't it?"

Hearing his words, Nicole began to cry again. Feeling that someone cared about his pain felt incredibly good.

The stars illuminated her path, and in Nicole's heart, previously sterile and cold, a hard white rose began to silently bloom.

Tonight was the beginning of the most beautiful chapter of Nicole's life, although it also marked the last bit of beauty she felt she had.
