Chapter 1976
Lawrence noticed Jared's pained expression, and continued speaking. "But don't you think that amnesia is a good thing? At least it is for Nicole. She can forget how incompetent you were in protecting her, and all the terrible things from before. Now, she can live her life peacefully with her kid leading a normal life. I don't think that there was a need to tell you all this as I worry that you would find someone who looks like her to be her substitute. I don't want to ruin this for her." Lawrence was sincere in his words.
Nicole looked in his eyes and her heart felt inexplicably conflicted. Lawrence was a guy that helped me through thick and thin for the past five years. I have no right to not believe his words, but to have me separated from my family for five years... this is....'
"Shut up. It's between Nicole and I. You have no right to interfere with this!" Jared's eyes instantly turned cold. Jared knew that although he failed to protect Nicole before, he knew that she was a strong woman and did not ever need to stand or require anyone's protection.
Sean, who had been staring at Lawrence for a while now, noticed that Lawrence was a powerful guy. From his expression and gestures, no flaws were found. 'It seems that he's really sincere about Nicole, no wicked intentions or anything... He's not an easy feat.'
Lawrence sighed. "I know I'm not qualified enough to talk to you about things like these, but it's been five years. I've been by her side, taking care of her and her children. Also, the relationship between both Nicole and I, I hope that Mr. Johnston won't come in between and meddle with it."
Lawrence had deliberately said it with a provocative smile on his face.
Jared's expression had gotten darker before smiling coldly." I won't mind your five-year relationship. After all, nothing will change. Legally Nicole is still my wife."
'As long as we have a marriage certificate despite having to date for less than a year... These five years wasted with Lawrence are nothing. At the end of the day, I'm still her legal husband.'
