My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1236

Chapter 1236

"Hurry up and cook the steak. I'm starving." Nicole looked at the steak on the grill and her stomach growled.

"Alright. It'll be ready soon." Jared gave Nicole a doting look, after which he started grilling the steak with utmost seriousness.

Jared brought the steak into the dining room after they were cooked. By then, Nicole was already holding a knife and a fork, ready to taste the steak.

Then, he looked at Nicole, who looked like a toddler waiting to be fed, and smiled, "Are you that hungry? Did you not eat much at the Riddle's?"

"I did. Every dish was tasty, and they were all my favorites too," Nicole replied, salivating when she thought of the lunch she had had at noon.

"Really? I should've gone there with you earlier," Jared joked.

Nicole then proceeded to cut a piece of steak and chew it. It's so tender. Your grilled steak is the best."

"You have to pay for my delicious steak," Jared joked.

"Okay. Name the price." Nicole continued to eat with a look of nonchalance.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll name a hefty price?" Jared looked at her.

"Nope. No matter how expensive a steak is, I won't go broke." Nicole glanced at Jared.

She had expected that Jared would not accept her money, and so, she was confident that she would do just fine.

"Indeed, but what if money isn't the mode of payment?" Jared asked, the corner of his mouth lifting ever so slightly with a wicked glint in his eyes.

Nicole paused as she was cutting her steak, whereupon she lifted her head to look at Jared. 'What does he mean?'

"And what's that mode of payment you're talking about?" Nicole asked Jared with probing eyes.

"Chill. Don't worry about it. Have your meal first.' Jared comforted her with a smile and proceeded to eat his steak contentedly.
