Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook

This was Raegan’s first sight of Jarrod in such a weakened state with severe wounds.

Beside Jarrod’s bed sat Nicole.

Releasing Mitchel’s hand, Raegan approached Nicole, her voice tinged with worry, and said, “Nicole.

.

Raegan halted at Nicole’s name, refraining from uttering more words unsuitable for the current situation.

Sensing the atmosphere, Jarrod arranged some refreshments for Raegan, suggesting a more casual setting for their talk.

As Nicole exited from the room, Jarrod’s stare followed her departure, intense and mysterious, almost unsettlingly.

Mitchel settled into a chair, his voice laced with concern.

“How are you holding up?”

Jarrod appeared nonchalant.

“It’s not too bad.

The wound just brushed against my stomach and missed any vital organs.

”

Seeing the noticeable bite marks on Mitchel’s face and recalling Mitchel’s hand-in-hand entrance with Raegan, Jarrod probed, “Have things smoothed over between you two?”

Mitchel’s annoyance was palpable.

“Not quite.

”

Jarrod managed a feeble grin.

“Your issues with Raegan aren’t as complex as mine with Nicole.

It’s mostly about misunderstandings.

Grasp the opportunity.

Raegan isn’t too hard to win over.

”

“Win her over?” Mitchel’s brow creased, skeptical of the assertion.

He hadn’t made such efforts for other women, uncertain about what “not hard” entailed.

Jarrod noted, “You treated Lauren well, and Raegan was understandin even forgiving.

Doesn’t that show Raegan was not hard to win over?”

Mitchel was puzzled.

“I treated Lauren well?”

Mitchel believed that mere material provision wasn’t genuinely caring.

To him, money meant very little.

It was with Raegan that he’d exerted real effort, persistently trying to make amends.

Yet, Raegan seemed unappreciative, even diminishing his endeavors!

Adjusting his sore arm, Jarrod commented lightly, “I get it.

To you, material support isn’t genuine care.

But women often see it differently.

Her frown is meaningful.

It indicates jealousy, a sign you matter to her.

They seldom admit it openly.

”

Mitchel felt somewhat reassured by these words.

Maybe Raegan wasn’t as detached as she seemed.

Whether she felt jealousy was uncertain, but maybe there was some underlying truth in her rebuttals.

Mitchel, gazing at Jarrod’s pallid features, asked, “If you’re so insightful, why did things with Miss Lawrence go so awry?”

“We’re not the same.

” Jarrod sighed, his expression bitter.

“The mistakes I’ve made are beyond repair.

”

Mitchel and the others were unaware of the intricacies of Jarrod’s corporate conflicts with the Lawrence family and the plots intertwined with them.

Jarrod chose to keep these details to himself.

Yet, the news of Wesson’s suicide shocked Jarrod’s close friends.
