Chapter 1802
"Lloyd, I've only agreed to do all of this because you've aided me back then. However, you've made me extremely uncomfortable today, and I've decided to stop the shoot for now. Don't worry, I'll repay you what I owe, but in another way," she said.
Indeed, it was not like Lloyd's intelligence could not be bought with money. It was just that she had no need for them before. As of now, she no longer wished to cooperate with this insatiable mother-and-son duo. If anyone else could provide her with the intel she needed for a price, she would pay even more money to get it done.
At that instant, Lloyd felt a wave of numbing coldness radiating from within.
"Nicole..." he uttered, still wanting to say something.
However, Nicole had already lost her patience. "Let's go. Take me away from here."
She was really tired and only wanted to leave this place.
Seeing that, Jared held onto Nicole and walked her out in domineering fashion, and as he did so, no one dared to try to stop him, not even Nachelle. The mother-and-son duo could only watch as the two made their exit.
Noticing that the crew was staring at Lloyd's sorry state, Nachelle fumed. "Why are you just standing there!? Hurry up and send Lloyd to the hospital!"
It was only then that everyone snapped back to reality and hurried over to help Lloyd out of the set. The ambulance had already arrived by then, so they did what they were supposed to, and helped him onto it.
Concurrently, Lloyd could no longer feel the pain on his body, and his eyes had totally lost their luster. His heart was pining for Nicole, and he really could not help what he had done. He then recalled how Nicole had reacted to him.
He truly could not understand what he lacked in comparison to Jared. It made little sense to him as to why Nicole would be so repulsed by him.
