My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1140

Chapter 1140

Nicole halted in her tracks and kept mum. The call went silent, and after some time, Jared said, "Well, you're safe now and that's all that matters. Take care."

Then, he hung up. Nicole placed her phone down slowly and stood still as she had suddenly lost her interest in the entertainment facilities.

After a while, Harvey realized that she was no longer following them, prompting him to turn around and say, "Why are you standing there? Let's go!"

Nicole looked at him. "I suddenly remembered that I have something I need to do. You should go ahead, I'll catch up with you later."

Without waiting for Harvey to respond, Nicole left the area, leaving him stupefied as he watched her leave. 'She became an entirely different person after she answered the call? Did something happen?'

"Kelly, has anything happened before you came here with Nicole?" Harvey looked at Kelly and asked.

Kelly thought about it as she furrowed her brows, before responding, "No, I don't think anything happened today. Miss Riddle was doing just fine before we came here, and I didn't receive any urgent messages either."

"That's weird." Harvey thought about it as he was confused. "What happened to her?"

"Harvey, Miss Riddle said that she will catch up with us later. Perhaps she remembered that there was something that she had forgotten to do," Kelly said, surmising that this was the only explanation.

"Maybe," Harvey replied, although he felt that something else was going on.

"Let's play some games over there while we wait for her." Harvey pointed.

"Sure." Kelly beamed, as any chance to be alone with Harvey was a good thing for her.

Nicole took the elevator back to the room and closed her door. She sat down by the window as Jared's words raced across her mind in continuous fashion.

She looked at the picture that she had taken with Jared on the phone as a smile unconsciously crossed her face. 'What's wrong with me? Why am I smiling at a picture? He was the one who was being all intimate with Fiorella, so how could I forgive him just because of that one line? I can't do this!'

Nicole calmed down and laid down on her bed, facing the ceiling as she stared into space. When she picked her phone up and opened Jared's chat log, she suddenly wondered if she should give Jared a call.

All of a sudden, Jared's request for a video call popped up on her screen. Nicole's heart skipped a beat, and after a few seconds of hesitation, she clicked on the green button.

Their faces were immediately on full display. Jared was leaning against a chair as he watched Nicole on the screen.

"Are you lying on a bed?" he asked with a brow raised.

"Yeah," she replied.

"Weren't you with Harvey moments ago? Are you..." Jared's eyes widened in an instant as he thought, ‘Are they really...'

"I am back in my room." Nicole could guess what he was thinking, so she quickly killed that thought for him.

Jared was relieved when he heard her answer. 'Thank God she explained. Otherwise, I would really buy a plane a ticket and fly over to meet her.'

"You just hung up, so why are you video-calling me again?" Nicole looked upset as she looked at him.
