Female Novel
Chapter 267 Save My Father
The reality had triumphed over Brett's conscience.
Brett stood up, walked to the computer, and inserted a USB flash drive.
Then, he looked at Wesson and said apologetically, "Mr.Lawrence, someone wants you to see this."
After saying this, he clicked the mouse, and the scene of a man and a woman entangled with each
other appeared on the computer screen.
Wesson's brows furrowed tightly.
When he was about to ask Brett who the people in the video were, he suddenly discovered something.
The woman in the video was actually Nicole, his beloved daughter.
The man was familiar to him.It was Jarrod, the man once engaged with Nicole.
When Wesson took a closer look, he realized that Nicole was only enduring what Jarrod was doing to
her numbly.
To put it bluntly, Jarrod was unilaterally abusing her.
Wesson's brain suddenly went blank.He wanted to reach out and turn off the computer.
But his hands were shaking uncontrollably.
Tears unconsciously streamed down his wrinkled face.Wesson wanted to turn off the computer, hoping
it could save Nicole.
But the truth was, there was nothing he could do.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang.
Wesson fell from the chair to the floor.
His body was bent, and his hands and feet shook violently.
But even so, he still begged Brett, "Brett, please...Save my daughter...Please...Save my daughter..."
Wesson naively thought he could save Nicole by just turning off the video.
But Brett didn't turn off the video.
Instead, he faced the screen to Wesson so Wesson could clearly see the entire scene.
The video continued to play.
Aside from Jarrod, the scene when Howe abused Nicole was shown.
Wesson could only watch the video helplessly.
Nicole was tortured by these wicked men, but there was nothing he could do.He was so heartbroken
that he could hardly breathe.
Nicole was his one and only daughter.She was the apple of his eye.
His lovely and obedient daughter.
How could they be so cruel to her? How could they treat her like this? They were not humans at all.
They were worse than beats.
"No...No..."
Wesson's hoarse voice sounded so weak and hopeless.
He couldn't help blaming himself for being a useless and terrible father.He failed to protect his
daughter.
But what happened next shattered his heart even more.Brett walked to Wesson, squatted down, and
said slowly, "Mr.Lawrence, your daughter did all of these for the company and for you..."
Wesson remembered the time when the company started to face the crisis.
He was afraid he would die at any moment, so he forced Nicole to handle the company's affairs.He
even asked her to go all out to protect the Lawrence Group.His only goal at that time was to pass the
company to Nicole and let her continue to run it.
He hoped his company could grant her a comfortable life with wealth if he met his demise.
He didn't expect his words to push her to the suffering.
Suddenly, Wesson felt a sharp pain in his chest.
He lay on the floor, gasping for air.
The excruciating pain was apparent on his face.
Although Brett could see that Wesson was struggling, he didn't show sympathy for Wesson.
He handed a pile of documents to Wesson expressionlessly and said in a low voice, “Your daughter
has to face greater trouble today, and it's all because of you."
Wesson's eyes popped out of his head when he heard this.
He seemed on the verge of crying.
While his hands and feet twitched, he pointed at Brett and asked intermittently, "Who...Who...Who on
earth is behind you?"
Brett lowered his eyes.
Actually, he didn't know.
Last night, he received a mysterious call, asking him to go to a certain place to pick up some
documents.He was forced to follow the instructions since he had caused trouble and was taken
advantage of."Mr.Lawrence, forget about it.Anyway, my mission is finished."
He sighed.
“Honestly, you are old and seriously ill.Why do you have to drag your daughter down with you? Why
don't you just go to hell by yourself? Then, it's all over, right?"
The elevator reached the first floor.
The doors opened, and Dora walked out.
When Nicole saw Dora alone, she immediately approached Dora and asked, "Mom, why are you down
here? Where's dad? Will he be all right up there alone?"
Dora was about to say something when several men in uniform suddenly strode to them.
One of them showed an arrest warrant and said aloud, "Excuse me, where is Wesson Lawrence?"
For some reason, Nicole felt panicky.
She asked nervously, "Why are you looking for my father? What do you want from him?"
The officer explained, "There is a contract dispute, so we need Mr.Lawrence to come to the station for
interrogation."novelbin
"A contract dispute?"
Nicole took the arrest warrant from the officer.
The contract number was clearly written there.
Her legs suddenly went so weak that she almost fell to the floor.She was in disbelief.
That contract was the one she begged Jarrod to destroy the other day.What did Jarrod mean by this?
He had promised her to settle the contract.
The officer asked, "Miss Lawrence, where is your father?"
Nicole was in a panic, and her hands trembled uncontrollably.
But she clenched her fists tightly to calm herself down.
"Can you let me make a phone call first?" The officer nodded.
"Sure.Go ahead."
Nicole squeezed Dora's palm to comfort her and said in a low voice, "Mom, please go upstairs and
check on dad first.Don't worry.Everything will be all right.Let me handle this."
Dora didn't resist.
She turned around and left in a hurry.
Nicole walked to the company's entrance with her phone in her hand.
Then, she dialed Jarrod's number with a trembling hand.
Her call was answered.
But before she could say anything, it was hung up.
Nicole didn't give up.She tried over and over again, praying from the bottom of her heart.
"Jarrod, answer the phone.Damn you! Answer it now,"
Nicole murmured through clenched teeth.
She wanted to tell him that she was willing to do whatever he wanted.
If he wanted her to get pregnant with his child, she would.
If he wanted her to be his mistress, she would no longer resist.
She got rid of all the resistance and stubbornness in her heart.
What mattered to her now was for Jarrod to let go of Wesson.When Nicole dialed Jarrod's number the
fifth time, all she heard on the other end of the line was a cold voicemail prompt.
"Sorry, the number you are calling is currently unattended.Please leave a message after the beep..."
Nicole's mind went blank for a moment.
Tears streamed down her face and blurred her eyes.
She couldn't think of anything, so she could only implore instinctively.
"Jarrod, please...Help my dad..."
But before she could finish her words, she suddenly heard a noise outside.
Someone shouted in horror, "Oh, my God! Somebody is going to jump off the building!"
Then, it was followed by a loud bang.
Nicole was so astounded that her mind went blank.
