Love Unbreakable

Jarrod stayed quiet, his eyes squinting as his gaze met Nicole's, engaging in a silent contest for a few seconds.

His lips barely moved as he whispered, "I worry you're not wild enough.Whatever your plan, whether it's to end me or to push me to my limits, I play along."

Once he finished, he quickly dipped his head, pressing his lips against hers with intensity.

It felt like the relief of rain after a long drought, that known tenderness enveloping him fully.

In that instant, he lost all sense of reason! The one Jarrod had longed for more than five years was really there in his embrace, under his kiss, and nothing felt more reassuring than that.

Jarrod instinctively shut his eyes, immersing himself in the feeling.

Unexpectedly, Nicole didn't push back, her lips parting just enough to let his tongue slide in.

With such an invitation, he let go of all control, their mouths and tongues intertwining as he pulled her closer, pressing her firmly against him.

Then, the elevator rang and the doors opened.

Outside, a storm of camera flashes and endless clicking awaited them.Word had gotten out about Jarrod wildly paying five times the price for the acquisition of Hilpton, and journalists hurried to snag a major scoop.

They hadn't anticipated walking into such a scene right when the elevator doors slid apart.

This was a chance they couldn't let slip by, capturing photos rapidly.

The journalists already imagined their headlines.

Jarrod Schultz Splurges a Fortune for Love...

Jarrod's eyes squinted, realizing he had fallen into a trap.

Broadcasting his reckless move of purchasing Hilpton for five times its value would stir up serious trouble for the Schultz business.

At that moment, Jarrod cared for nothing else, turning just enough to protect Nicole from the prying eyes, drawing her into his arms.

He reached out to close the elevator doors.

The elevator started its ascent.

Jarrod turned to her.

"Can't go back now.How about staying here? I just bought it.Pick any room you fancy." Nicole laughed.

"You've really lost it."

To figure out which room she was in, he had bought an entire hotel at a financial loss.

Only someone completely off their rocker would do something like that.
