Jamie's mind went blank for a moment. She grabbed Jarrod's sleeve tightly, looking at him with eyes widened in disbelief.

When she came back to her senses, she said, “Jarrod, are you kidding me? Everything is ready. Maybe the guests are already on their way.

How can you say there is no wedding? How can we not get married?"

“Jamie, I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you," Jarrod said apologetically.

Jamie shook her head frantically. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, smudging her makeup. She looked even more pitiful.

"No! Jarrod, you can't do this to me. I don't need your compensation.

ALL I need is you. I want nothing but to marry you. I don't want anything else in this world. Only you! I want to be your bride, your wife!"

Jarrod's eyes were filled with guilt. But he still said unwaveringly, “Jamie, I can give you anything you want except marriage."

This time, Jamie lost control of her emotions. She shouted, "No! I don't want it. I want nothing but you. I want to marry you!"

Jamie clutched Jarrod's sleeve tightly. Her tears fell on his suit.

She looked at him pitifully and pleaded, “Jarrod, you can't abandon me. You promised you would never abandon me. Jarrod, marry me. Please...

I promise I won't be so willful in the future. I'll be a dutiful wife. I will do everything you say."

Jamie was so heartbroken that she cried hysterically.

She didn't want any compensation. If she married Jarrod, she would have everything.

A mere compensation was nothing. She wanted everything! Everything!

At the thought of this, Jamie cried even harder. It was as if her heart was broken into pieces. When Jarrod saw this, his expression softened.

Jamie didn't care if her makeup was ruined. Her appearance didn't matter now. There was only one thing in her mind. Jarrod had to stay and marry her no matter what.

At this moment, the door was pushed open again, and Alec came in.

When Alec saw the scene inside the lounge, he turned around and was about to leave. However, Jarrod stopped him. "Give me the phone,”

Jarrod ordered.
