My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 2558

Chapter 2558

"Ms. Riddle," Patricia greeted politely.

"There's no need for you to be so formal with me. Since you'll be working with me from now on, it'll be more casual," said Nicole. She pointed to the pile of documents on her desk.

"Are these doable for you?" asked Nicole.

Patricia nodded. "Yeah."

Nicole quickly filtered out the documents and workload for Patricia before handing it over to her. "Great. This is for you."

"Thank you," Patricia said as she took the documents in her hand and started going through it by Nicole's desk.

Nicole pointed to the coffee table in her office. "You can go and sit over there to work. I'm glad you're here. Lulu's going to be on leave soon for her wedding and honeymoon. I really needed the extra hand."

'With Patricia here, my workload will surely be lighter,' she thought to herself.

"Ms. Riddle, if there's anything you need me to do, you can leave it to me," said Patricia.

Nicole chuckled and smiled. "If you keep acting like this, I'll think you're a robot. Please loosen up or I'll have the impression that you're being compelled to do this."

"No, I really want to do this well," Patricia explained, with a trace of nervousness across her face.

Nicole smiled. "Well that's great. As for the rest, you can slowly take it on, one at a time."

'Maybe she's too nervous being here for the first time. I'm sure that over time, we'll get to know each other better and she'll be more comfortable,' thought Nicole.

The office became quiet once more. With Patricia helping Nicole out, the speed of Nicole's workload was like never before. The drowsiness Nicole had felt earlier completely disappeared since Patricia came.

Time went by in a blink of an eye, and soon it was already lunch time.

"I don't feel like going out to eat lunch today. Shall we get food delivered?"
