My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 385

Chapter 385

Now that Mr. Riddle Sr. was pissed, and they did not want to defy him, they had no choice but to leave Nicole alone for a few more days.

Mrs. Wallace Sr. was here just to check out the Riddle family’s attitude toward Nicole. Mr. Riddle Sr.’s attitude was clear, so she had nothing to worry about. She was not used to staying in such a ridiculously large family, and it did not help that Mr. Riddle Sr. asked her to stay longer. 

Mrs. Wallace Sr. wanted to decline but was worried that her refusal might affect the Riddle family’s opinion of Nicole. Just as Mrs. Wallace St. was in a dilemma, Nicole said deprecatingly, “It’s alright, Grandpa. My grandma isn’t familiar with this place, and I’m going to sit for exam soon. I’m afraid I will not have time to accompany her. Maybe when Grandma comes next time, she can stay here longer.

Upon hearing what Nicole said, Mrs. Wallace Sr. let out a long sigh of relief. She turned to Mr. Riddle Sr.

“Yeah, it’s so courteous of you to invite me to have a meal here. I don’t want to trouble you again. Anyway, thank you very much,” Mrs. Wallace Sr. said with a nod of thanks. Mr. Riddle Sr. did not insist. He smiled and nodded back. “It’s alright. How about we start dinner now?”

He felt Mrs. Wallace St. kind and congenial when he saw her. 

“Okay.” Mrs. Wallace Sr. nodded obligingly. Everyone agreed, and Daniel and his wife had a smile on their faces. Dillon was also relieved simply because he did not have to live with this old lady. 

‘I didn’t expect Nicole’s grandmother to be so unappreciative of dad’s kindness, just like Nicole. She befits the person who raised Nicole; the two are equal fools.’

Unlike Dillon and his wife having an ax to grind each, Nicole stood by her grandmother’s side and talked to her.

Mrs. Wallace Sr. whispered to Nicole, “Thank goodness you spoke for me. Otherwise, I couldn’t have refused it.”
