My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1172

Chapter 1172

Harvey was still intent on coming along, but Kelly stopped him.

She could not bear to see Harvey getting hurt again, so she could only pull him aside and shook her head as she said, "Mr. Ellison, Mr. Johnston is already here. Don't go chasing after them."

These words seemed to remind him that it was time for him to wake up. He had no chance of being alone with Nicole anymore. In the past, Harvey used to rely on Jared's absence to do so, and those were the times when he could feel as if he was Nicole's guardian angel of sorts. He was not expecting Jared to be here today, but now that the unanticipated had occurred, his dream of being with Nicole completely disintegrated.

Harvey's footsteps grew louder and heavier as he watched Nicole saunter off. He did not know how to keep up. He could only clench his fists, gritting his teeth as he glared at the back of Jared.

'One day, I'll surpass Jared Johnston and have Nicole for myself!'

After the three of them had left the establishment, Jared pulled Nicole into his car, which was parked by the entrance. With his eyes downcast, Ike could only watch as he got into his own vehicle to lead the way for the both of them.

Silence filled the car as Nicole kept mum, and upon noticing that Nicole was sulking again, Jared issued a loud sigh. "Are you still concerned about the incident at the racecourse?"

Nicole's eyes rolled, and without turning to look at him, she said, " No, I'm thinking about the chip right now."

Jared breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that she was not hung up about the incident anymore. Then, he reached out to hold her hand. "That's good."

Upon feeling his touch again, Nicole's heart skipped a beat. She wanted to pull away, but he was holding onto it so tightly and was refusing to let go.
