My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1183

Chapter 1183

Nicole and Ike were chatting and laughing as they were walking to the parking lot outside. Thinking that Jared was not here to pick her up, Nicole looked around with a sense of disappointment swelling within her. Then, Ike said, "It seems that Mr. Johnston isn't here..."

Before he could complete his sentence, a dazzling light beamed out and elongated Nicole and Ike's shadows.

Jared got down from the car and looked at Nicole, "Are you done with work?"

As soon as Nicole saw Jared, a happy smile appeared on her face. Just as she was about to walk toward Jared, she suddenly remembered that Ike was with her. She turned over and looked at Ike, "It seems that someone has come to pick me up. I guess I won't be able to take a ride home with you today. Sorry."

"It's fine. I feel more at peace knowing that Mr. Johnston is here to pick you." Ike smiled, as he did not seem to be embarrassed at all.

"See you tomorrow." Nicole bade Ike a goodbye and walked toward Jared.

"Why didn't you tell me that you're picking me today? I almost left with Ike." Nicole glanced at Jared and ranted.

"I wanted to give you a surprise. Get in." Jared opened the door for her.

Nicole and Jared both climbed in, after which Max started the engine and drove to the hotel.

"You worked till..." Before Jared could finish his words, Nicole immediately interrupted him.

"I know. But I must let you know, the chip design which I'm working on currently is crucial. So, I'll be quite busy for the next few days. If I've ignored you in any way, I hope you would understand. Besides, this chip will be very important to you too." Nicole forced a smile as she offered him a serious explanation.

The chip..." Jared stared at Nicole's eyes and thought for a while. "Okay then. Since you'll be pretty occupied with work, and that too for me, I've decided to send you to and fro every day. Are you happy with it?"

"For real?" Nicole did not expect Jared to make her such an offer, and for each and every day too. 'That's amazing!'

"Yes, for real. But I might be flying home anytime. I'm not sure how for long I will be able to do this daily." Jared looked at her seriously.

"It's fine. Every trip counts." Nicole wrapped her arms around his with a smile on her face.

"You must've not eaten yet, right? What do you feel like having now? We'll head over there now." Jared asked her affectionately.

"It's been a while since I had meat puffs. Do they have it here?" Nicole's big eyes were blinking as she looked at Jared.

Jared furrowed his brows. Indeed, Nicole had thrown him a challenge this time round. Snacks like meat puffs were easily found everywhere back at home. But now that they were abroad, it would be quite a challenge to find them.

Jared looked at Nicole with his brow raised, "Are you really craving for it? Or are you just joking?"

Nicole sat up straight and looked at Jared, unsmiling, "Do you think I look like I'm kidding right now?"
