Neither of them had any relationship with him, indicating his stance on the issue. This meant the club could deal with them however they wanted. He wouldn't intervene.

Jemma furrowed her brow, about to speak when Jarrod interrupted with a question. "Jemma, where are they?" Naturally, he meant Doreen and Vicki.

Jemma had mentioned that Doreen and Vicki were here and drinking heavily on the phone, but now they were nowhere to be seen.

Jemma was taken aback and then replied, "They were here just a moment ago. I'm not sure where they went. They had probably left.”

“You're not sure?" Jarrod said icily, “If anything happens to them, your club can kiss its existence goodbye."

Jemma was left speechless and started sweating again. She couldn't comprehend how things unfolded to this point, and Nicole hadn't dropped any clues. What was her next move?

"Mr. Schultz, please, relax. I'll get someone to find them..." Jemma turned to the people behind her, saying, "Go find out where Miss Schultz and Miss Hampton are!"

Jarrod dialed Vicki's number and rang her up.

After a beep, Vicki answered right away. "Jarrod?"

Jemma felt embarrassed. Vicki sounded sober and clear, not like she had been drinking heavily.

But Jarrod didn't seem bothered by Jemma's lie. He simply hummed in response.

Vicki sounded delighted. Jarrod seldom called her, especially late at night.

Jarrod's tone was cold and indifferent as he asked, "Where are you?"

"I'm..." Vicki hesitated and then said, "I'm at home."

"You didn't go out tonight?" Jarrod asked.

"Uh... No... Well, I did go out briefly, but I didn't feel like it, so I returned."

“Where did you go tonight?" Jarrod asked in front of everyone.

Vicki paused, uncertainty flickering across her face as Jarrod's unexpected interest in her activities tonight caught her off guard.

Normally, Jarrod remained indifferent about her comings and goings, his questions never extending beyond casual pleasantries. Yet today was different. A fleeting thought crossed her mind.

"I..." Vicki hesitated and then ventured, "I went to Kingbel Club with Doreen."
