My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 2154

Chapter 2154

As Iris had been working with Jared for such a long time, this meant that she was a capable and competent worker. It was probably not easy for Jared to find an immediate replacement in such a short amount of time.

"You care about me," Jared said with a mischievous smile.

Nicole could not help but shoot Jared a disdainful glance." Do you think I have nothing better to do?"

After saying that, Nicole got up, wanting to go to the bathroom. 'I'm not going to poke my nose in his business anymore. He can probably handle it himself.'

Much to her chagrin, Jared reeled her back and pinned her to the bed before kissing her in the lips.

They could no longer control their breaths, and it was only then that Jared released Nicole, who glared at him reproachfully.

Jared smirked as he stroked her hair. "Go take a shower and get ready for bed."

Nicole's lips twitched slightly. 'How did this guy manage to remain so composed?'

On the other side of things, a woman dressed in an elegant and seductive outfit was sitting by the bar. She was holding a glass of liquor, gulping down one quart after another.

"Give me another one," Iris said as she placed the empty glass down, already feeling slightly intoxicated.

Looking at her, the bartender remarked, "Miss, you've had enough to drink."

"Shut up. Am I not paying you?" Iris asked, pushing the glass forward.

The bartender then decided that he would stop trying to advise her and proceeded to pour her another drink.

"Why are you drinking alone? Is there something troubling you?" A man sitting next to Iris asked in a concerned tone of voice.

"There's no need to be so guarded. We share a common goal." The man refilled Iris's empty glass and poured one for himself.

Raising his own glass, the man looked at Iris and introduced, "My name is Lawrence. I might be able to help you get what you want."

After saying that, Lawrence placed a business card on the table and said, "Come to my office tomorrow. Let's talk."

Frowning, Iris looked at the man in front of her with her brows raised in suspicion. "What do you want?"

"I can help you get Jared. If you're interested, come see me tomorrow." Lawrence then walked away, leaving nothing but his words behind.

Iris, who was slightly tipsy, was left shocked by Lawrence’s words. She sobered up in an instant. Just from that sentence alone, Iris was very certain that Lawrence knew everything about her situation, and that he understood it well.

That was why he appeared right here at this very moment; to tell her that he could help her. But why would he want to help her? That was the question.
