My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1408

Chapter 1408

Without sparing him a glance, Nicole continued to stare at Jared. " No, I wish to stay with him."

At this moment, no one was as important as Jared in her world. The only person who mattered was Jared. In response, Harvey looked at Nicole's steely gaze and gave up on his attempt to persuade her.

Judging by the look on her face, Harvey knew that, regardless of what he had to say, Nicole would not leave this place. "That's fine. I'll be here with you then,"

Harvey turned around to look at the unconscious Jared lying on the sick bed. He wished Jared would wake up sooner. That way, Nicole could be at ease.

Nicole sat at Jared's sick bed, maintaining her silence. Both of her hands were cupping Jared's, not letting go even for a moment. Looking at his ashen face and tightly shut eyes, Nicole was desperately hoping that he would suddenly open his eyes and talk to her.

Yet, as time flew by, all was silent, barring the beeping emanating from the vital signs monitor.

When Max had returned and walked in with a bag of takeaways, Harvey looked at Nicole's already stiff figure and was about to say something.

Then, he looked at Nicole, and in a gentle tone of voice, he said, " Nicole, dinner is here. You should go and eat something, okay?"

Having heard Harvey's words, she looked over her shoulder and glanced at him. Max then walked over and joined Harvey in persuading her, and it was only then that was she willing to eat something.

Seeing that Nicole was willing to come over and eat something, Harvey and Max looked at each other respectfully and issued sighs of relief. Max proceeded to prepare the cutlery for her while Harvey stayed back to tend to Jared.

Although Nicole was eating, her gaze was still focused on Jared's general direction. She hurriedly took a few bites, after which she returned to Jared's bed again.

Noticing how quickly she had eaten and returned, Harvey said, " You should eat your meal in peace. We're all in the same ward. Nothing will happen to Jared. Besides, I'm right next to him."
