My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 2763

Chapter 2763

"Hehe." Ellar awkwardly smiled. "She got injured while saving me, so I just wanted to know more about her."

"Is that all?"' Nicole squinted at Ellar, unable to shake the feeling that he was up to something.

There was something obviously unnatural and forced about the expression on his face, and yet he stuck to his guns and insisted, "Yes, that's all."

"Oh." Nicole uttered, trying to stop herself from exposing him.

After shooting him another glance, she said, "Patricia didn't come."

"Is she okay?" Ellar asked, seemingly a little disappointed.

"The injury has already healed. You don't need to worry about it,” Nicole replied with a slight smile as she looked at him.

Ellar looked away in discomfort, and after coming up with an excuse to skedaddle, he said, "I'm running out of time. I'll go meet my business partner now."

"Sure, go ahead." Nicole grinned.

Ellar was beginning to feel a little uneasy. Something told him that Nicole had seen through him, and that was good enough of a reason for him to leave.

Nicole's smile grew even wider as she watched Ellar scurry away, almost colliding into a waiter on his way out. She figured that he must be feeling called out.

After Ellar had fled, Nicole withdrew her gaze and raised an eyebrow. It seemed to her that Ellar was unusually concerned about Patricia. However, they had barely met, so it begged the question: why was he so concerned about her?

Still, she was aware that nothing would be able to sway two people from getting together if Cupid willed it. Those destined for each other would eventually be together.

By the time the hilarious encounter with Ellar was over, lunch was already served, so Nicole shifted her focus back to the food and proceeded to start her meal with Jared.

Jared gently scooped bits of each dish and served them to Nicole, who happily ate them. In most cases, there was no defying Cupid's arrow, and the best example was her and Jared.

Then, she looked at Jared and gave him a radiant smile." Thank you, Jared Johnston."
