My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 2033

Chapter 2033

Jared's lips curled up into a warm smile. "Don't apologize. You're doing great already. Didn't you say you were going to follow your heart? It seems that your heart is telling you to come to me."

Though he was frustrated that someone else was pursuing Nicole, Nicole's attitude toward Lawrence did not drive him into sorrow or madness. She had made the right choice by following her heart, and the results were very satisfactory to Jared.

They might not be as fervent in their romance as they were before, but Jared was more than happy to give her space and time. He was willing to wait for her, and he believed that she would not disappoint him.

At that moment, Nicole was pulled back into reality and realized that she was hugging Jared. Her face immediately flushed as she pushed him away, creating a distance between them.

She could not believe that she had actually let her guard down and hugged Jared moments ago. ’It's so embarrassing. I feel like I'm going to die.'

Jared flashed her a devilish smile when he saw how flustered she looked. "Are you trying to tell me that nothing happened seconds ago?"

"What happened just now? Nothing happened at all," Nicole explained, her cheeks turning a rosy shade of red.

"Well, you hugged me on your own accord." Jared paused before inching closer to Nicole. "Or maybe, you had something else in mind. Did you want something else to happen?"

"Of course not." Nicole's face flushed an even deeper shade of red. 'This jerk is teasing me!'

"No?" Jared asked, getting so close to her that she could feel his breath.

Nicole could not help but hold her breath. She quickly tried to distance herself, but as she was too aggressive about it, she lost her balance and ended up falling over.

"Oh!" Nicole let out a cry before extending her arm to grab something.

She did not know what she had caught onto, but she held onto it tightly anyway.

"Oof."

Unfortunately, the object she was holding onto was Jared’s necktie. She had pulled Jared down with her, causing him to fall as well. The both of them fell onto the bed, with Jared now lying on top of Nicole.
