My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1537

Chapter 1537

His words were so bold and brazen that he had made Nicole feel embarrassed. "Shut up."

Jared smiled playfully. He loved Nicole's bashful look like this.

He looked at the people who were present, as Mr. Johnston Sr. was surrounded by guests, happily greeting some of the members of the elite families.

He then turned to Nicole. "Seems like I'll have an easy life ahead."

Hearing this, Nicole issued a sigh. "Can you stop patronizing me?"

Despite the fact that she knew what Jared was capable of doing, she believed that what she had witnessed was not the full extent of his capabilities.

"I'll cut myself off that system sooner or later," she said.

Once she had discovered the person behind this and resolved the crisis, she would never not wish to lay a finger on the Reby Family Crest ever again.

"If you want, you can just leave it be. I'll protect you," Jared's offered with a look of determination in his eyes.

Nicole's heart skipped a beat; she knew all too well that Jared was being serious.

"But I don't want to be the center of attention of these people for my entire life," she argued.

Even as she looked at the crowd inside the residence, Nicole could feel that her head was about to explode. She would definitely lose her mind if she was to mingle with these people for the rest of her life.

A wry smile crossed Jared's face. "Many have their eyes on the power and the benefits that come with this crest. You are the only one who is not concerned about it at all."

"I don't need another person's power to make me stronger. I just hope that they don't end up being used by people with sinister intent," she replied flatly.

Jared's love for her grew even stronger upon observing her righteous demeanor. The two then rested as they took sips of red wine.

However, Nicole also knew that Mr. Riddle Sr. did not want to air his dirty laundry to the public, and so, he would definitely not disown this granddaughter of his before everyone here.

At that moment, Mr. Riddle Sr. could only suppress his rage as he watched Chloe walking upto him.

Noticing that Mr. Riddle Sr. had not flown off the handle, Chloe knew that her parent's plan must have worked. With that in mind, she quickly put on the mask of a filial granddaughter.

"Grandpa.” She came up to Mr. Riddle Sr. and her eyes immediately reddened. "It's good to see you in great health."

Mr. Riddle Sr. did not want outsiders to find out about the drama pertaining to his family, and thus, he could only say, "Stop crying. Since you're already here, go out there and entertain the guests."

Elated, Chloe immediately replied, "Thank you, Grandpa."

Nicole could not resist from staring at Damien and Dillon. Her uncles were no fools and had taken this opportunity to bring Chloe back.
