My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2760

Nicole was dead serious. "Yeah, I can't back out now."

Zane pondered for a moment, whereupon he agreed, "Since we can't avoid this, we might as well work

together once more. However, you don't need to come over to HQ to do any field work. You can stay

where you are now and provide us with intel. Don't hesitate to let us know what you need help with."

'As long as she doesn't put herself in danger, there shouldn't be a problem,' he thought.

Nicole nodded. "Sure, no problem. I'll handle the side of things here at San Joto and leave the rest to

you."

To that, Zane sternly replied, "Okay."

'If the Eastern Falcon is thinking of making a return, we won't hold ourselves back this time around,'

Zane thought, determined to bring his adversaries down.

Nicole sighed as she hung up and she reminisced about the days when she was still an active member

of the organization. Near-death encounters were commonplace back in those days.

Then, Jared came up to Nicole and whispered in her ear," Have you called?"

Nicole tilted her head and looked at Jared with a smile on her face, "Yeah, I just called."

Jared gently ran his fingers through Nicole's hair. "He must've pulled all of his hair out worrying about

you."

Nicole nodded in response, "Yeah, I know."

She could not imagine how terrible Zane must have felt upon learning that she had crashed.

After that, Nicole bit her lip and mumbled, "He said that I can officially resign from my post after we

have dealt with the Eastern Falcon."

Jared saw a flash of reluctance in Nicole's face, and so, he offered, "You know, if you don't want to

resign, you don't have to. You don't need to abandon what you love just because of us. You can keep

doing what you enjoy."

However, Nicole shook her head. "I know I'm reluctant to resign, but sometimes, tough decisions must

be made."

Nicole resonated to herself mentally, 'I've been missing for the past five years, and now, I have a family

of my own. I can't be running around with the organization battling criminals and mercenaries all the

time. I guess my exit is the best solution for both parties.'

Jared immediately caught onto what Nicole was trying to tell him, and gave her a back rub. "I want you

to know that I'll be here supporting you every step of the way."

"Thank you," she said, her heart skipping a beat.

Jared then looked at Nicole with a soft smile on his face." Go take a shower and join me in bed."

Agreeing with Jared's suggestion, she got up and made her way to the bathroom.

Shortly after, Nicole climbed into bed, wrapped herself in Jared's arm, and fell asleep with a smile of

contentment on her face.

The next day, the sun shone warm and bright as Nicole entered the headquarters of Riddle

Corporation.

The instant she placed her belongings down, Lulu came walking into Nicole's office with a serious look

on her face." Take a look at this."

Nicole frowned as she grabbed the documents. Lulu's face, on the other hand, was scrunched up into a

sour grimace. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

She was completely bewildered by Harvey's shameless behavior, "Like, what on earth is he doing? Is

he dumb or something?"

Nicole furrowed her eyebrows and shook her head. "I think it's because Thomas has rejected his

proposal, and it's driving him nuts."

"And so?" Lulu snorted.

'If Thomas has refused to help him, it wouldn't be a stretch to say that he'll go that far to screw with

Nicole,' Lulu thought.

With a sneer on her face, Nicole said, "He really believes that strengthening our ties together will

benefit both companies. However, he has not taken into account that it'll be much harder for us to

separate what's ours and what isn't.

Lulu blinked and gave Nicole a blank stare before the truth dawned upon her. "So what you mean is

that he's doing this on purpose to bind both companies together so that you'll never be separable!"

This made Lulu fuming mad. 'I do have to give it to him. Such a brilliant idea riddled with so much

wishful thinking. He really should know that we aren't mindless puppets which he could manipulate

however he likes.'

"Yeah, I guess you can put it that way." Nicole sighed. 'This dude is becoming more juvenile with each

passing day.'

Lulu looked at Nicole with a look of impatience written all over her face and asked, "What's the plan?

Are we going to take the upper hand in this situation or?"
