My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2603

Chapter 2603

Everyone was already used to Jared's grim appearance, so no one dared to say much. Instead they

turned to Nicole. "I didn't expect that you'd return and bring a pair of gems with you!”

Nicole smiled happily. "Yeah, they're gems alright." She thought to herself, 'If it weren't for them, I don't

know what I would've done for the past five years.'

Nolan noticed that everyone's attention was fixed on their mother. He raised his eyebrow and looked at

Jared, hoping to get an answer to things.

Jared curtly ordered, "Focus on eating." He placed vegetables onto his son's plate.

' Dad, were these your competitors from before?" asked Nolan.

Jared quickly scanned the table. "They're not worthy of your mother."

"So they are," said Nolan.

The sudden claim caused Jared to choke on his food.

'One of these days, these smart brats will be the death of me, ' Jared thought as he looked at the

people standing around Nicole.

His gaze was cold. A few people shuddered and immediately excused themselves.

"Mommy, they were all your admirers, weren't they?" asked Nolan, trying to be cheeky.

Jared flicked on Nolan's head lightly. "Eat your food."

Smiling, Nicole refrained herself from laughing out loud.

Jared glanced at Nicole helplessly, before placing some food onto her plate. In a softer voice, he said,

"Eat up." Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

"Okay." Nicole smiled sweetly before taking a bite.

Nolan frowned, wondering why he was flicked by Jared.

The banquet gradually came to an end as guests slowly took their leave one after another. At the hotel

lobby, Maximillian said, "I'll best be going now."

"I'll be leaving as well,” said Mr. Riddle Sr.

"By the way, Mr. Riddle Sr. don't forget our appointment."

"Don't worry, I didn't forget about it," Mr. Riddle Sr. reassured.

Soon the two of them left in their own cars as the others got into theirs. It was not long before the

brightly lit hotel lobby became silent.

Meanwhile, Lawrence had just arrived back at his residence.

"You stay back and keep an eye on what's happening here," Lawrence ordered Ian.

"Yes, sir," Ian responded.

"Also, since Nicole has found the Fire Crest, others might be observing its every move," added

Lawrence.

Ian nodded. "Very well, sir." He hesitated before speaking again. "Mr. Royce, is it true that Ms. Riddle

hasn't recovered any of her memories?"

"I think so. She hasn't changed much since we met and there are some things that can never go back

to the way they used to be," said Lawrence.

Whether Nicole gets her memory back or not, the moment she recovered the Fire Crest, it was already

game over for what's left of our friendship. We could no longer go back to how we used to be. Ever

since she returned home, there was a possibility that someone would tell her about the Fire Crest,

regardless of her regaining her memory or not. None of these things were within my control ever since

she came here.

'When she was still at Crescent Island, I would've still stood a chance to get the Fire Crest but now the

question of whether she had recovered her memory or not is the problem. Staying here at San Joto,

any news would easily be spread. Whether she has her memory back or not. Nicole will surely find out

sooner or later, or that someone would tell her about it,' Lawrence thought to himself.
