My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 3000

Chapter 3000

"Why are you here?" Nicole asked in surprise.

"I came to see you," Jared replied softly, his gaze gentle as he took a seat beside her on the couch.

Nicole joined him, her body leaning against the soft cushions. "I just got back."

"I know," Jared said, reaching out to take her hand.

Nicole's eyebrows raised slightly. "You knew?"

Her mind raced to a conclusion. Jared must have known about her lunch with Lawrence. His arrival here was far from a mere coincidence.

"Yes," Jared confirmed, "What did he say to you?"

Nicole's frown deepened. "What if I told you we just had lunch? Would you believe that?"

"Just lunch?" Jared's voice carried a hint of disbelief. 'Is that all? What's Lawrence planning?'

"Who knows? He's a weird one," Lulu added with a pout, "But for sure, he's up to something fishy."

Nicole agreed silently. Although Lawrence appeared calm, she knew he was a wolf in sheep's clothing, not to be trusted.

Jared looked at Nicole, his eyes calm yet filled with concern.

"Don't worry, I'm fine," Nicole reassured Jared, squeezing his hand. 'He's probably just buying time,' she thought.

"Does this mean he wants a temporary truce to lower your guard?" Max asked, catching on.

"Possibly, but he must have a plan behind it," Nicole responded, nodding thoughtfully. She had known Lawrence for a few years and had some insight into his character.
