My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 142

Chapter 142

Nicole did not look away as her pair of eyes looking at him was not that frigid. Instead, it was like a calm lake, beautiful and enchanting. Jared looked away and said, “If there’s something like this in the future, I’ll take you along.”

When he heard that, Max, who was driving, gave Jared a surprised glance.

‘His boss had never attended a banquet with a female companion before!’

However, when he recalled his boss’ not-so-closeness toward the ladies seemed useless against Nicole, he was relieved.

Jared then casually continued, “The girl sitting beside me today is Mr. Rogers Sr.’s granddaughter. Today is, after all, his birthday banquet. I was giving him face, so I did not chase her away.”

Nicole nodded when she heard that as she looked at him.

Max could see from the rear mirror the confusion in Nicole’s eyes, seemingly not understanding why Jared was telling her that.

Seeing this, Jared swept a cold glance over, and Max immediately looked away.

Jared looked at Nicole’s emotionless eyes. The warmth in his heart slowly cooled as a chill appeared in his eyes as he looked on at this seemingly heartless woman as he hissed, “Fine, Nicole, you win.”

After dropping Nicole off at her school, the black car drove away directly.

Nicole looked at the car and fell into a rare deep thought.

In fact, when she entered the banquet hall and saw a beautiful girl by Jared’s side, she actually felt a little uncomfortable. Yet she could not grasp what this feeling was. Looking at her watch, it was almost nine o’clock in the evening. She did not dwell on it as she turned toward her school and walked off.
