Chapter 216

“Only Nicolas and the Hammond brothers are the ones who can’t see through you.”

He backed his wheelchair away, looking totally fed up. “And seriously, all that crying is just bad energy. If you want to be unlucky, go ahead-just don’t bring your drama to me.”

He was making it clear to Nicole that she could forget about scheming against him-he wasn’t buying any of her tricks.

And he was also making sure the two hiding in the bushes heard every word.

Nicole was honestly stunned as she looked at Jason-she just couldn’t believe what she was hearing.

Who would’ve thought someone so handsome could have such a savage mouth?

Not only did he have zero clue how to treat a lady, he even said she was bad luck. That was just plain rude.

She looked really aggrieved. “I wasn’t scheming against you! How could you misunderstand me like that?”

Jason said coldly, “You’d better not be. Otherwise, I wouldn’t mind letting Nicolas and Caleb know about all the things you and your mom have been doing in secret.

“Since I’ve been running into them pretty often these days.”

Nicole’s expression shifted. “What are you even talking about? Did Alicia tell you something?

“She’s always misunderstood me. I just hope you won’t believe everything she says.”

She retorted, trying to sound tough, “I haven’t done anything, so go ahead and tell Nicolas and Caleb. I’ve got nothing to hide.”

Jason’s voice was full of implication. “Alicia never told me anything-I just picked up on it

myself.

“Like how you’re always in touch with Nicolas’s agent, showering his wife with expensive gifts and hooking her up with influential people.

“Or when Nicolas’s assistant’s dad was in the hospital, you covered the hospital bills.

“And Caleb’s assistant? Your mom put her through college.”

Since Nicole knew Alicia and her mom were into helping people, once Mavis married into the Hammond family and had money, she started copying their charity habits.

Watching Nicole’s expression shift with every word, Jason pressed, “Should I keep listing them? Or do you want me to stop?”

Nicole’s nerves were shot the more she listened. ‘How does he know all this? Did someone snitch on me?’ she thought, panic creeping in.

“I-I don’t know what you’re talking about,” she stammered.

She stood up, dropping the pitiful act. “I’ve got things to do, so I’ll leave you alone.”

Then she made a quick exit.

She was afraid that if she stuck around any longer, Jason might just drop some more bombshells.

She couldn’t help but feel a chill run down her spine whenever she thought about Jason now.

He knew way too much-if he ever spilled the beans to Nicolas or Caleb, she’d be in deep trouble.

Any thoughts of scheming against Jason had vanished; all Nicole wanted now was to stay as far away from him as possible.

Instead of running off, Nicole headed straight back to her place.

She nearly bumped into Alicia, who was standing by the entrance with her arms folded, watching the whole spectacle unfold.

Nicole acted like Alicia wasn’t even there and rushed straight inside.

Alicia ignored Nicole completely and walked straight over to Jason.

Jason grinned at her. “You totally nailed it. Nicole was watching me head out, then came running after me with fake tears, trying to set me up.”

Alicia knew he was doing it on purpose.

Earlier, when she stepped outside, she’d noticed two shadowy figures on the path-then watched as they quickly ducked behind the bushes,

It was too dark to see their faces, but from their build and the way they moved, it was obvious it was Caleb and Nicolas.

She smiled and continued, “Anyone who gets close to me, Nicole just has to try and steal them away.”

She joked with him, “Especially with your looks and status-there’s no way she’d ever let you
