My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 2747

Chapter 2747

"What's she up to?" Nicole frowned. 'Is Cherry using Stanley as a shield?'

"It's just a deal between us. She's getting her visa. But there are some problems causing the delay," Stanley admitted, relieved after sharing his dirt with Nicole.

Nodding, Nicole instantly understood Cherry's plan, as well as Stanley's. "You're using her to stop the inflow of dates Mom's setting up for you?"

"You can say that, but you're not entirely correct," Stanley replied.

"What do you mean by not entirely?" Nicole asked, becoming even more confused.

It was obvious that Cherry was using Stanley as a smokescreen to lull her family into a false sense of security until her visa was approved. After that, she would leave the country with her real boyfriend.

However, Nicole could still not figure out Stanley's motive in this deal. Once Cherry had left, his family would still pressure him into getting married. This much would be true.

"She's helping me," Stanley murmured. ’It's between Tia and I."

"You and Tia?" Nicole asked, her eyes widening in surprise.' What's the situation between Stanley and Tia?'

"All along, Tia had someone she liked. I could only look out for her without crossing any lines. But then, Cherry told me that Tia does care about me, so here I am, fighting for myself," Stanley explained.

If Tia did care about him, Stanley would do all he could for a chance to be with her.

"So your way of fighting for a chance at love is by getting yourself a false girlfriend? And not to mention, you even acted all lovey-dovey in front of Tia," Nicole reprimanded.

"Cherry said it would affect Tia. The idea is that, if Tia really does care about me, she won't remain indifferent," Stanley explained.

However, he did not want to act in front of Tia, so he did his best to avoid getting too close to Cherry.

He could not understand what he had done wrong to warrant such a reaction from Nicole.

'Have I made a mistake by striking a deal with Cherry? Did it hurt Tia in any way?' Stanley's face blanched as he came to the realization that he might have made a grave mistake.

Nicole was speechless as she came out of Stanley's room. She was both helpless and disappointed as she returned to her room.

She figured that Jared was accompanying the kids upon noticing his absence in the room, so she sat at the bedside.

Unintentionally, her mind kept bringing her back to Stanley's situation. It was apparent at this point that the relationship between Stanley and Cherry was merely a collaboration, a mutual assistance of sorts.

Cherry was indeed clever to have sought help from Stanley. If she ran off with her boyfriend in the near future, the Jean family would not be able to fault Stanley for it. They would not even dare to create a scene at the Riddle family manor, and even if they did, Stanley could always defend himself by saying that he was a victim in this incident too.

"That's one hell of a plan. So that's how she knew that has feelings for Stanley," Nicole mumbled.
