My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2559

"It's okay." Lawrence did not show any disappointment. He just glanced at Nicole and said, "Since

that's the case, how about having dinner together?" NôvelDrama.Org content.

"No need to trouble yourself. Mr. Johnston is on his way to pick up his wife now," Patricia said. She

stood by Nicole's side with a cold and indifferent expression.

Lawrence glanced at Patricia with dark eyes. He had a strong feeling that Patricia was not someone to

be messed with.

Patricia's presence, next to Nicole, was nonexistent when she remained silent earlier. But it was the

complete opposite when she started speaking.

"This is..." Lawrence pretended to be somewhat puzzled.

"My assistant." Nicole kept it vague.

Lawrence's gaze darkened. "Isn't Lulu your assistant?"

"Lulu has been busy lately, and she's going on her honeymoon soon, so I hired a new one,” Nicole

explained with a smile, coming up with a convincing reason.

Hearing this, Lawrence did not press further and simply smiled. "Well, too bad then."

"Let's do it another time." Nicole was pretty tired too, so she did not want to have lunch with him.

"Sure, I'll see you next time." Lawrence did not persist.

Nicole saw Jared's car driving in, so she said, "I'll be leaving now."

"Bye," Lawrence replied, watching Nicole board the car and leave. Once she was gone, Lawrence's

expression turned cold and ruthless.

Lawrence got back into the car, and Ian asked, "Mr.

Lawrence, is everything all right?"

"Find out who the lady next to Nicole is," Lawrence ordered in a cold tone.

"Understood," Ian promptly agreed before asking, "Is there something wrong with her?"

"I'm not sure, but something doesn't seem right," Lawrence replied. Even though Nicole had explained

that Patricia was her new assistant, the woman's aura was far from what an ordinary assistant would

possess.

"Why would there be such a person around Miss Nicole?" Ian muttered as he found it strange.

Lawrence glanced at Ian and said, "You can investigate the people working under Jared."

"Mr. Lawrence, are you saying that..." Ian did not finish his sentence as he thought to himself, 'Did

Jared send her?'

Although Lawrence did not say it, his message was quite clear.

Ian knew that there were not many people who could work around Jared, yet that woman was one of

his people. Even though she was working under Nicole, she probably was not capable enough to be

around Jared.

"Got it," Ian responded seriously.

If this person had been arranged by Jared to be around Nicole, there was only one possibility—to

protect her. But did Nicole need someone to protect her? Something must have happened, or...

Lawrence's eyes turned dark as he looked out of the car window, deep in thought.

Meanwhile, in Jared's car, Patricia was sitting in the passenger seat. Her voice low as she said, "I've

taken care of my identity, so they won't find anything."

"From now on, unless there are special circumstances, just go to and from work normally." Nicole

looked at Patricia. Since Patricia was using an ordinary identity, she should not show that she had a

special status.

"Okay," Patricia replied respectfully.

After a while, they arrived back at the Riddle residence.

Nicole and Jared entered the house, while Max and Patricia left.

In the living room, Nicole noticed that Nolan and Lana had not returned yet and casually asked, "Are

Nolan and Lana not home yet?"
