My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1248

Chapter 1248

Jared flipped through his phone and looked for Nicole's contact on his messenger. When he tapped into her profile, he noticed that she had blocked him. He could not see her status.

Jared was unnerved immediately. He counted the time quickly and thought, 'She must have landed already.'

He tried to video call Nicole. But after ringing for some time and no one picked up the call, it automatically hung up.

Jared was starting to feel unhappy. So, he dialed Nicole's number once more. After waiting for a short while, Nicole finally answered the phone.

"What's the matter?" Nicole asked coldly.

Jared could sense from her tone that Nicole was still angry. Facing that, Jared was at a loss for words instantly, so he kept quiet for a moment.

Once Nicole noticed that he was not replying, she got angrier and said in an unhappy tone," I'm hanging up if you're not going to say anything.''

"Wait." Jared stopped Nicole as soon as he heard that she was about to hang up. How could he be willing to let her hang up, especially when it was so hard to reach her by phone?

"H-have you eaten?" Jared hesitated for a moment and spit out a question.

"You made an international call just to ask this?" Nicole mockingly replied with another question.

"No, have you landed safely?" It seemed like Jared's brain had frozen. The moment he asked the question, he was disappointed in himself. 'Why would I ask such a stupid question?¹

Nicole completely lost her patience, so she replied angrily, "If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up." As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately hung up.

"Hey!" Jared put down the phone when he heard the beeping sound.

He rubbed his forehead and was disappointed in himself. 'Why can’t I speak clearly when I'm facing Nicole directly? I was still planning to explain everything, and now I've failed all my plans.' Jared drank a big gulp of water out of frustration.

When the manager was carrying the food and approaching Jared, he happened to see Jared gulping down the glass of water. That made him nervous as he thought that his service was too slow, and it made Jared hungry. Therefore, the manager walked up to Jared faster and politely served the food in front of Jared.

"Mr. Jared, enjoy your meal." The manager quickly walked away after he finished serving. He was worried that Jared would scold him if he stayed.

However, Jared did not notice the manager's weird actions at all. His head was filled with Nicole, and he kept thinking about the wrong things he had said to her.

He instinctively picked up the knife and fork to cut the steak. Then, he popped a piece of meat into his mouth and began chewing. Amidst his thoughts, he did not bother to think about the taste of the food.

Unknowingly, Jared had finished eating up all the food on the table. He only came back to his senses when he held the glass.

Jared looked at those plates shockingly. 'Did I really finish all these foods on my own? I did not realize it at all.

'Forget it. It doesn’t matter.¹ He did not leave the place immediately. Instead, he chose to stay there and sit a little longer. After all, he would be alone in the house. It would not be any different.

"The night view here is quite pretty." Jared looked out of the window and sighed.

When he used to visit the restaurant with Nicole, all his attention was placed on Nicole alone. This night was the day when he realized how beautiful the night view was.
