My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2724

Nicole raised an eyebrow and that was when she saw Martin walking up to their table with a woman in

tow.

"This is...," Nicole trailed off before eyeing Martin with a cheeky smile on her face.

"A collaboration partner at my R&D Center that we’re working on to develop a new project. We're

almost done with it too," Martin explained.

"I can see that you two make a great team.' Nicole smiled before turning to look at the woman beside

Martin.

"Hi, I'm Nicole Riddle, Martin’s friend. Nice to meet you," she introduced.

Then, the woman returned the smile and introduced herself, "Hi, Nicole. I'm Cindy Rowe."

"What brings you here for lunch? Isn't your office rather far from here?" Martin asked, as he was not

expecting Nicole to grab her lunch here.

"I came to see Jared for work and we decided to drop by for lunch," Nicole replied.

"Ah, I see. Well, I'll leave you guys to it," Martin said, and nodded at the couple before bidding them

goodbye.

"Okay, I'll see you around," Nicole waved.

Martin turned around and sauntered off, guiding Cindy to a table nearby. Once they were seated,

glanced at their direction with a glint of mischief in her eyes.

'I was beginning to wonder where he had run off to after he had disappeared for a while. Well, it turns

out she's a business partner, not a girlfriend. Still, she seems quite stunning and they seem to be rather

close to one another too,' Nicole observed as a smirk played on her face.

"Let's dig in," Jared said, derailing her train of thought.

Nicole then turned to Jared with that smirk still intact. "That woman looks like a good match for him,

don't you think?"

"I didn't pay attention earlier," Jared replied as maintained his gaze on the food in front of them.

In response, Nicole raised her eyebrows before chuckling and shaking her head. 'Well, him not paying

attention to her is a good thing, I guess...'

She then turned her attention to the food laid out in front of her and began eating.

Meanwhile, Cindy and Martin were chatting along happily after they had placed their orders.

Cindy was glancing over at Nicole's table as she asked, "Do you like her?"

Martin's eyes widened before he regained his composure and gave her a faint smile. "Yeah, a long time

ago, I did."

Martin used to have a crush on Nicole which he had long given up. At present, he was glad that they

could remain as friends.

Cindy nodded. "Yeah, I can see why. She's a stunner."

"This is your first time meeting her?" Martin looked at her in surprise. 'I swear this can't be the first time

they have met one another,'

"Well, you can like people based on your first impression of them.' Cindy smiled.

Cindy had not known Nicole before this, but she was certain that someone who could catch Martin's

attention was no ordinary woman.

'It's obvious that Nicole already has someone she likes, and that Martin doesn't stand a chance,' Cindy

observed.

Martin seemed to have caught on to Cindy's assumption." That's Mr. Johnston, also known as Jared

Johnston. They're a married couple and have a pair of five-year-old twins." All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Martin was in a daze, smiling as he was talking about Jared and Nicole.

Cindy, on the other hand, was surprised. "They're married and have children!?"

Cindy then looked over her shoulder and stared at Nicole.' Wow, I can't imagine someone like her

would have two children already! She looks to be about my age though.'

"Yeah, when I first met her, I was attracted to her too. She's a real beauty. However, it's a pity that I'm

not as good as Jared there. But, you know, we're still friends so that's cool with me," Martin continued.

It was the first time Martin had spoken at length about himself in such a long time. He was content with

the relationship he had with Nicole, both in the past and at present.
