Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook

Alec wasn’t in the position to refuse.

Plus, Vicki used to visit there to have dinner with Jarrod before Austin moved in.

There was also a guest room reserved specifically for her.

It was just that Alec was puzzled why Vicki and Jarrod rested in separate rooms even after the engagement.

Logically, they were both adults, and it was normal to have certain needs.

Vicki wasn’t any average Jane.

She had a figure and appearance that turned heads, plus a classy demeanor that drew people in.

Alec found it hard to comprehend why Jarrod didn’t feel a thing for Vicki.

Even he would seek out women to satisfy his needs three to five times a week.

Alec had once suspected that Jarrod might have some issues with certain functions.

Otherwise, a healthy man in his prime wouldn’t lack desire like that.

He vividly recalled what Jarrod was like when Nicole was around his side.

Back then, Jarrod’s face would light up with charm, always full of desire.

But with Vicki, that sparkle had vanished, replaced by a cold, distant demeanor.

Upon reaching the destination, Alec headed upstairs to check on Austin.

Vicki tagged along.

When noting her lack of desire to locate her earring immediately, Alec asked, “Miss Hampton, weren’t you going to search for your earring?”

Vicki smiled.

“I wanted to see Jarrod’s child.

”

Alec was taken aback, unsure if Vicki was allowed to see Austin.

After all, Jarrod had never introduced Vicki to Austin before.

Vicki noticed Alec’s uncertainty and smiled.

“Jarrod mentioned I could visit his child.

But if you’re concerned, I won’t visit him then.

You could dial Jarrod for instructions.

I understand Jarrod’s quite worn out at the hospital, and I just want to help out…”

Hearing this, Alec couldn’t bring himself to refuse her, and he didn’t want to bother Jarrod with a call.

“It’s fine, Miss Hampton.

You can see him,” Alec said, thinking that since Vicki might soon be Austin’s stepmother, it would be good for her to start bonding with Austin.

And since he would be there to oversee, there was no cause for concern.

As they moved ahead, the door of Austin’s room creaked open, and a little boy’s cries reached their ears.

Alec, alarmed, hurried over to ask, “What’s wrong?”

Austin sobbed and said, “Help her.

She is sick.

”

Alec grasped Austin referred to the nanny who had been taking care of him.

Lying on the floor, the nanny’s face was pale and distressed.

Alec immediately summoned the family doctor over.

After the examination, the doctor explained, “It seems like an acute kidney stone issue, but we’ll need X-rays to be sure.

We can’t do that here.

If it is a stone, she might need surgery and hospitalization depending on its size.

”

Upon hearing this, Alec quickly called for an ambulance.

Austin continued to cry desperately, tugging at Alec’s sleeve.

“Alec, save her, Please save her, Alec.

”

The nanny had been with Austin since he was little, and he viewed her much like a real grandmother.

Austin clung to Alec, not as timid as he was with Jarrod, tears flooding his cheeks as he pleaded, “Alec, I want to stay by her side.

”

Alec felt torn.

The villa was quite a distance away from the hospital, so taking the nanny there would be quicker.

However, Austin was just a child, and Alec wasn’t comfortable leaving him alone with the two unfamiliar maids.

At that moment, Vicki stepped in and said, “Alec, you take her to the hospital.

I’ll stay here and look after him.

”
