My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 3020

Chapter 3020

Returning to the Riddle residence, Jared and Nicole tucked Nolan and Lana into bed before retiring to their own room.

"You must be tired," Jared said, noticing Nicole's slightly weary expression.

"It’s okay, just a bit sudden," Nicole sighed.

"Let's rest for now," Jared suggested, gently stroking Nicole's hair.

Nicole smiled faintly, took a bath, and then lay down.

Jared kissed her forehead softly, whispering, "Sleep now."

"Aren't you sleeping?" Nicole asked, puzzled.

"I still have some work to finish, but I'll join you soon," Jared replied, patting Nicole's shoulder before sitting down at the desk.

Nicole looked at Jared, feeling a warm comfort, and closed her eyes to sleep.

The next day was bright and sunny.

After dropping Nicole off at the company, Jared instructed Max, "Drive."

"Mr. Johnston, Everett is currently staying in a hotel. It looks like he doesn't plan to buy property," Max reported.

"Hmm, he won't stay in San Joto for long," Jared mused, his expression darkening slightly. Everett's purpose in returning was clearly for the Crests.

"Previously, he collaborated with the Eastern Falcon, but after Scorpio's incident, it seems he couldn't wait any longer and decided to return himself," Jared thought aloud.

"Of course, Lawrence's involvement is unmistakable. As expected, Lawrence is more cunning."

"Keep an eye on Lawrence's people, and tell them to be even more cautious," Jared ordered with a hint of coldness in his voice.

Everett, being in the open, was one thing, but Lawrence's presence in the shadows was more concerning.

"Understood," Max replied, fully grasping Jared's intentions.
