My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2706

Feeling defeated, Lulu said, "He's basically using social coercion, isn’t he?"

Although Harvey said that everyone was going, that did not mean that Nicole must be there too.

"It's okay." Nicole smiled and looked at Lulu. "Perhaps there's something for me to gain out of showing

up. You should come with me too."

"Me?!" Lulu asked in surprise. "Are you sure it wouldn't be better for you to find a male companion?"

Even if she did not wish to go to the event with Jared, Sean as her plus one would also be fine. Lulu

believed her presence would not be of much help anyway.

"With so many shareholders and partners present, are you sure there's no one you'd like to get to

know?" Nicole asked.

Lulu blinked, starting to understand what Nicole was coming from.

Then, she gritted her teeth and replied, "I guess that works too."

"Hehe, alright. Gather some information when you're back," Nicole suggested.

Knowing some background information about those people beforehand might prove to be handy later

on.

Lulu nodded. "I'll make the preparations when we're back."

Since they had decided to make themselves present, they needed to be prepared.

Satisfied, Nicole smiled. "Okay. For now, let's eat."

"Yeah," Lulu agreed and began digging in with Nicole.

After they were done eating, the two of them left the restaurant. However, Lulu was puzzled when she

looked around and realized that their car was gone.

"Where's the car? The chauffeur didn't say he'd leave first, did he?" she asked.

"Maybe something came up. Let's hail a cab first." Nicole looked around.

Although she did not know what the driver was doing, there was still a need for them to return to the

headquarters as soon as possible.

"Oh, okay," Lulu said.

After flagging a cab down, she looked at Nicole and said," Let's go.”

Nicole nodded and got into the car. However, just as Lulu was about to get in as well, three men in

black lunged out of nowhere, forced their way through all three doors, and got into the car.

At the back seat, the two men on either side of Nicole pointed their knives at her. "Don't make a sound,

or you'll face the consequences."

"Drive." The third man at the passenger seat placed the edge of his blade directly at the driver's neck.

The driver was petrified for a moment. Then, he started the engine and sped off in a hurry.

Although Lulu did not know what was happening, she chased after the car the moment she saw it

speeding away." Hey, stop the car. What's wrong with you?!"

Even then, she was still left in total shock by the sudden turn of events. 'What on earth just happened?!'

After a brief chase, Lulu found herself unable to catch up, so she helplessly watched as the car

receded from view as tears welled up in her eyes.

"Help, help!"

Just as she shouted, someone yanked her back, prompting her to whirl around to see who it was:

Patricia.

Lulu broke down into a mess of tears and sweat as if she had caught a lifeline. "Quick, do something! A

few strangers forced their way into the cab Nicole was in! Is she in danger!?"

'Great, with Patricia here, there's a chance that we'll still be able to save Nicole.'

"You should go back first. I'll take care of the rest," Patricia comforted Lulu and activated the tracking

system before following them.

Meanwhile, Nicole was calmly watching her kidnappers in silence. She was well aware that this was

the result of Chloe's impatience. If anything, it was a rare opportunity for her to bag Chloe, so she Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

would not let it slip away. Her only hope was that Chloe would personally show up and act on her

vengeance, and by the looks of it, Nicole's sacrifice would not be in vain.

The kidnappers thought that Nicole was afraid when they saw how subdued she was, so they kicked

back and let their guard down as well.
