Love Unbreakable

Austin, buoyed by his happiness, clenched his tiny fist and declared, “Mommy, now I can protect you.

”

Nicole and the others chose not to dampen Austin’s spirits.

Despite his lifelong frailty rendering him unable to protect others, they refrained from discouraging him.

Roscoe affectionately patted Austin’s head, his smile warm and encouraging.

“Austin, I eagerly await witnessing your transformation into a resilient young man.

”

Austin beamed with delight, responding, “I will, Roscoe.

”

Upon Austin’s awakening, Jarrod’s patience with Roscoe’s presence in the room wore thin.

In a cold tone, he questioned, “Is your company still in business? How do you still have time to linger here?”

Roscoe perceived Jarrod’s thinly veiled attempt to drive him away, yet he maintained a composed demeanor.

“I appreciate your concern, Mr.

Schultz.

However, my company is doing well for the time being.

”

Jarrod was left momentarily speechless.

He harbored no genuine concern for Roscoe.

Instead, he covertly hoped Roscoe’s circumstances would deteriorate to the point of necessitating his departure from Ardlens.

Nevertheless, Jarrod felt compelled to maintain a facade of civility, particularly because Nicole had identified Roscoe as Austin’s godfather.

Jarrod was mindful of not allowing his son’s godfather to endure excessive misery.

“Your family’s formidable competitor recently conducted an inspection in Haytown,” Jarrod said abruptly.

A faint crease formed on Roscoe’s brow, indicating his surprise.

He hadn’t been privy to this information.

The Haytown project, currently in its final phases of negotiation, held significant importance for his company.

If the rival company ventured to Haytown at this juncture, it could indicate an attempt to disrupt his project.

Considering both companies operated within the same industry, competition was normal.

But the timing of the rival’s approach just before the completion of the Watts Group’s project seemed particularly underhanded.

After a brief silence, Roscoe responded with a simple “Thank you.

”

Jarrod scoffed in response, asserting, “Survival of the fittest.

If you can’t keep up, don’t blame anyone else.

”

Jarrod’s implication was clear.

If Roscoe believed personal vendettas drove his past actions, Roscoe was sorely mistaken.

Even in his absence, others would have targeted the Watts family amid their troubles.

Even a dying camel was larger than a horse.

Despite their setbacks, the Watts family still held considerable value.

Securing their contracts could greatly benefit a burgeoning company.

Jarrod’s interventions had deterred numerous opportunists.

Attempting to rival him was a futile endeavor.

Jarrod’s influence didn’t come from sheer power to dominate Ardlens.

It was his formidable methods and strategies that made him nearly unbeatable.

He was a true madman, having once shut down a Listed company within three hours.

No one dared provoke him without risking severe consequences.

Jarrod’s intervention had afforded Roscoe the crucial time needed to concentrate on countering the Schultz Group.

Contending with a single formidable opponent was far more manageable than fending off numerous adversaries simultaneously.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Ironically, surviving Jarrod’s suppression had enhanced Roscoe’s standing in the business world.

As a result, Roscoe deterred many who harbored malicious intentions in the shadows.

Moreover, Roscoe’s collaboration with a subsidiary of the Dixon Group further underscored his capabilities.

People were intrigued by him since he had managed to withstand the onslaught of one tycoon and secure the favor of another, achieving heights unattainable to many.

If Roscoe couldn’t grasp the intricate dynamics at play now, he truly didn’t deserve his place in the business.

But he couldn’t fathom why Jarrod, who had once been bent on destroying him, had suddenly shifted tactics, opting not to target him but to offer indirect assistance instead.

Taking a few steps before halting, Roscoe asked, “Why are you doing this?”
