My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167

As she was a movie star, Chloe’s situation was understandable. Nicole, on the other hand, had not even secured her place within the family, and she did not even deign to come back. Even if the old man were to stand up for her all this while, he would still be unhappy about it.

The two looked at each other, and sweat started to come down from their foreheads. Both Samuel and Spencer too anxiously gave Nicole a call. They had not seen their little sister much this week and thought that they could have a nice chat with her today, but it turned out that she did not return home at all.

Even the usually steady Sean had a worried look in his eyes. ‘Nicole’s behavior, be it intentional or not, it’s tantamount to an affront to grandpa. We hear nothing about her during our family dinner, which is held once a week, and she is absent without notice. This must be an affront to his authority in grandpa’s eyes.’

At this moment, Mr. Riddle Sr.’s face was so grim one could wring the bitterness out of it.

Seeing this scene, Norah was gleeful. Although she did not know why Nicole did not come back, when she saw the old man being dissatisfied with Nicole, she was happy.

At this moment, Raine took the opportunity and said, “Grandpa, Nicole straight up refused to speak to Snow and me at school, as if she can’t be bothered with the Riddle family. She even got along with the bully from the neighboring school and did not focus on her studies. She isn’t studying hard like what Uncle Daniel said.”

Snow waited until Raine was done before she spoke, “Raine, don’t say that. Perhaps Nicole was held back by something…”

Before Snow was done speaking , Karen sneered, “Snow, you don’t have to speak for Nicole. The fact she did not come back today proved everything. It does seem like we are nothing to

her.”

Dillon, too frowned. “Did Nicole really think herself a big shot or something? She isn’t even assured a place in the family, so what’s with the posturing?”

Preston had his headphones on and could not be bothered to participate in this crusade against Nicole.

However, his character on the phone had already died five times in a row, and he tossed his phone aside somewhat irritably. Just as he was about to say something, Damien suddenly spoke. “Enough, stop it.”
