My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1399

Chapter 1399

'It seems to me that I've really overestimated Joyce McCarthy.'

The man under her feet attempted to sweep her leg off from under her in a hasty move, but she kicked his syringe away and proceeded to stomp on his other hand, crushing it hard under her heels.

"Since Joyce had sent you here, you must be one of her most loyal lackeys. Well, don't think of going back to her anymore. You're staying here," Nicole sneered.

"Keep dreaming!" The man immediately retorted.

However, as soon as he had uttered those words, the door of the ward suddenly swung open, revealing Martin, who soon walked in with a group of policemen. They then picked the man up and cuffed him.

"Damn it, it was a trap!" The man bellowed, feeling a mix of astonishment and fear. 'This b**** is so devious that Ms. Jo might not be her match!'

"Of course, it's a trap, do you really think I'm hurt?" Nicole sneered, her eyes dark and bloodthirsty.

Martin shuddered the instant he noted Nicole's gaze. 'Now I understand why she wanted me to fake her wounds. It was to lure them out!'

"Take him away, and wait for his master to show up."

As the man had been neutralized, Joyce McCarthy would definitely show up sooner or later.

The man's eyes betrayed his sense of defeat and resignation. He could only allow himself to be dragged away by the police. Martin watched as the man was being taken away, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"This feels way too satisfying. If I was late, what would have happened to you?" he asked.

"Based on what you just saw, does it look like he'd be able to hurt me?" Nicole asked and flashed him a cheeky smile.

Martin was left speechless for a moment there, 'It is no doubt that the average Jane wouldn't be able to do what she has done.'

"However, my goal has yet to be achieved. That perpetrator has yet to show up. I guess I have to wait until tomorrow." Nicole sighed, and proceeded to lie down in peace before yawning.

Martin looked at Nicole and guessed, "Is the person you're referring to Joyce McCarthy?"

Martin was aware that all the attempts on Nicole's life had all started following Joyce McCarthy's return to the country.

Nicole nodded, knowing that Martin and Joyce were once good friends.

"Why? Are you sad that you've had to part ways with her?" Nicole asked in a low voice.
