Not Love Him Mitchel said those words seriously, but Luis found them unbelievable.
"You claim she has nothing to do with you.
But have you forgotten that you often go back to her and harass her again and again?” Mitchel's grip on the wine glass tightened.
It was as if he wanted to crush it.
"This time, it’s true.
From now on, whatever she does will have nothing to do with me.” Luis still wanted to say a few words to comfort Mitchel.
He asked, “What did Raegan do to you this time?" Before Mitchel could answer, Jarrod snorted.
"Hey, it’s just a woman.
Why still bother? What you need to do is find a couple of women to play with.
Believe me, you will forget about her completely." Mitchel put a cigarette between his fingers and said indifferently, "I'm not interested.” Jarrod raised his eyebrows.
"What's wrong? Don't tell me you can't be attracted to anyone else aside from her." Mitchel looked at him with a frown. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
"It's not like that.” But actually, he didn't know.
After all, he had never tried it with anyone else.
But Jarrod seemed right.
Only Raegan could arouse him.
He had no interest in other women at all.
Mitchel’s face darkened.
He put the cigarette in his mouth irritably, took a long drag, and blew a mouthful of smoke.
Luis kicked Jarrod lightly and snorted.
"hey, don't stir up trouble.
What if I find you a woman now? Will you sleep with her?” Jarrod raised his eyebrows again.
"Of course! Do I have any reason to refuse? Since you want to introduce several women to me, I am more than willing to accept your kindness.
"Really, huh?" Luis kicked Jarrod again.
He smiled and continued, "Do you think I don't know you and Miss Lawrence have been intimate recently? What do you want to do? Reignite the flame of love between you two?" Jarrod shook his head, "Of course not.
I'm Just in the mood to play with her recently." But when Nicole's image flashed in his mind, Jarrod’s Adam's apple bobbed up and down.
Luis was right.
He had been sleeping with Nicole a lot recently.
Since she confessed that she still had feelings for him, it seemed something had changed in their sexual activities.
He couldn't deny the fact that he became a little addicted to it, and it was not only to vent his desire like he did before.
Luis looked at Jarrod with narrowed eyes.
"Oh, man! Brag and bounce!” Jarrod tilted his head.
“It's perfectly normal for men to love sex.
Not everyone is preparing to become a celibate monk like you.” Luis rolled his eyes at Jarrod, who was deliberately shifting the topic to him.
Jarrod laughed at his reaction.
"I'm actually wondering if your tool can still work." Luis smiled wickedly and said deliberately, "Do you want to give it a try?" A wave of disgust surged in Jarrod's heart.
“Fuck off!” Jarrod picked up the glass and drank it up.
"Guys, I'm leaving.
You continue the fun.” Luis knew Jarrod walked out in disgust.
But he didn't mind it.
He turned to Mitchel and said, "I think you should let go of Raegan for now.
It’s only momentary, anyway.
It's more important to focus on the matter with your father.
Make him let down his guard.
Once he feels at ease, he'll surely contact that illegitimate son.
Then, you can catch him and put him in the open.
It's better to deal with him openly than in secret.” Seeing that Mitchel was noncommittal, Luis didn't know how much of their conversation Mitchel had absorbed.
Luis sighed.
"As for Miss Benton, don't be too hard on her.
Just bear with her these days." Mitchel remained expressionless.
Luis couldn't read his mind.
Luis rubbed his temples with his fingers and complained, "Why did | invest in your family's shares? You, the major shareholder, don't even worry about your family business.
While I, a nobody, worry every day that your father will hand the company to his illegitimate son.” Mitchel said indifferently, "You got nothing to worry about.
Even if Alexis hands the company to his illegitimate son, you can still withdraw your shares.
You won't suffer a significant loss.” "You...
Mitchel, you are hopeless." Luis looked frustrated.
"Think about my words.
I can see Miss Benton is quite satisfied with you.
I never ask you to accompany her in a considerate way.
But please, don't always wear that gloomy face and be indifferent to her.
Try to communicate with her normally.” Luis paused, recalling his experience in dealing with women.
Then, he added, "When a woman has you in her heart, you only need to say a few casual words, and she will soften.
But once she loses you in her heart, she won't care about anything you say or do.” Luis’ words somewhat hit Mitchel.
Indeed, Raegan no longer had him in her heart.
Aside from totally getting rid of him in her heart, she also learned to stab him deep in his heart.
Fortunately, he sobered up and _ regained his composure.
After smoking a cigarette, his mind became clearer and calmer.
"Since Alexis wants the new energy project of the Benton family so much, I need to play along with him and ensure he negotiates this deal as soon as possible.” Luis raised his eyebrows.
"Are you suggesting putting on an act?" "No, not a fake one.
I'll make a real one.” Mitchel tapped the table with his slender and beautiful fingers.
"The members of the Benton family are not stupid.
They won't link the company’s development with their daughter's marriage.
Present them with a win-win situation, and they'll naturally be attracted.” Luis breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Indeed, Mitchel hit the target directly every time he made a move.
Luis said casually, “If you are as clear-headed as this when it comes to your relationship with Reagan, you wouldn't have ended up in a divorce.” Sure enough, God was fair.
When He gave people extraordinary skills, he also balanced them with weaknesses.
Mitchel rubbed his forehead, looking irritable again.
He frowned and said unhappily, "Don't mention her.
As I have said, she has nothing to do with me.” He said those words again.
Luis just smiled without saying anything.
He believed that if a man really felt this way, he wouldn't keep emphasizing it.
Repeating it over and over again was no different from deceiving himself.
Jarrod went straight to Oasis Apartment.
This was one of his many properties.
And recently, he let Nicole stay here so he could come to her anytime.
When he arrived downstairs, he immediately noticed the dim yellow light on the eighteenth floor.
It was an indication that Nicole was at home.
He stood there looking up at the light while smoking.
An indescribable feeling rose from the bottom of his heart.
Although he still hated her, he sometimes thought it was good for them to go on like this.
Jarrod stubbed out his cigarette and entered the apartment building.
He took the elevator in a good mood.
He had inexplicable and unspeakable anticipation to see her.
Jarrod was about to open the door when his phone suddenly rang.
He received two video clips.
His brows furrowed slightly.
He squinted and clicked the videos.
The first video showed Nicole and Raegan chatting while eating at a mall.
"Nicole, do you still love Jarrod?" Raegan asked.
Nicole replied, "I'm not out of my mind yet.
I'd rather love pigs and dogs than love him.
I will never love him.
I just found an effective way to deal with him.” Raegan frowned and said worriedly, "Don't do anything foolish.
If you offend Jarrod, I'm afraid he'll hurt you." Nicole smiled.
"Don't be deceived by Jarrod’s appearance.
He only looks formidable on the surface.
But the truth is, he is still as naive as before.
He is easy to deceive.” Then, the video abruptly stopped.
It only took thirty seconds for Jarrod's mood to change dramatically.
But he seemed calm, clicking the second video.
It was a video of Nicole having breakfast with a young man by the roadside.
They were eating pizza while chatting and laughing happily.
They looked like a couple.
Jarrod knew who sent these videos to him.
He forwarded the second video to Alec, followed by a voice message.
"I want all the information about this man in five minutes.” Then, Jarrod put his phone back into his pocket and pushed the heavy door open expressionlessly.
