My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2786

Nicole, in a frosty tone of voice, snapped back at Harvey." We're indeed not as meddlesome as you."

'Why does he have to butt in on how people raise their kids?' she thought.

Harvey, who was feeling the sting from her words, replied, "I was just showing my concern."

"We don't need your concern. You should rather pay attention to your own affairs," she said. 'He really

should stop poking his nose where he doesn't belong.'

Trying to suppress his anger, Harvey changed the subject and mellowed histone. "Are you done

eating?"

'Nicole is getting ruder by the day. Am I really that bothersome to her?' he wondered.

Instantly, Nicole got up with Jared. "Yes, we've finished.

We'll leave you to eat your meal."

Although Nicole's words were polite, her message to Harvey was clear; she was telling him to stay out

of her and Jared's way.

Harvey was seething as he watched them disappear from view, and so, he silently made a promise to

himself, 'Just wait until my plan works out, Nicole. Everything's going to change soon. Let's see how

you treat me then.'

Then, a waiter approached him. "Sir, would you like this

table? I can clear it for you right away."

Harvey looked at the scraps of the meal on the table, and in unbridled annoyance, he said, "No, that's

not necessary."

He was not really there to eat; he had deliberately entered the establishment upon spotting Nicole and

Jared. His initial intent was just to see Nicole, but the encounter had left him seething with anger.

Nicole hasn't changed a bit over the years. Her words are even sharper now. Just wait, Nicole. Just you

wait! In three days, you'll understand what it means to regret your actions,' he fumed.

After Nicole and Jared had left, they got into their car to head home.

Leaning back against her seat, Nicole let out a sigh. "Harvey is still the jerk he was years ago, just that Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

he's even more obstinate and radical now."

Nicole thought about Harvey's behavior as she recalled her days in school. He always had an air of

arrogance about him, ignoring the feelings and opinions of others as if everything should just cater to

his whims. She had never been able to figure out whether Harvey's affection for her was genuine love

or just a sense of entitlement and possession, as well as an inability to accept loss; resentment for not

getting what he desired.

"It's simply childishness." Jared coldly spat, showing his complete disregard for Harvey.

Harvey might have a plethora of schemes up his sleeves, but they were all rather childish and posed

no serious threat. At most, they were just minor nuisances. To Nicole, Harvey's actions were nothing for

her to worry about, for they were more annoying than anything else, which was why she was

determined to put an end to them once and for all.

Nicole glanced up at Jared and smiled, after which she shifted the conversation to something more

pleasant." Nolan and Lana are craving ice cream. I've promised to get them some."

"Sure, let's go buy some," Jared said cheerfully.

Then, the couple headed off to get some of the sweet, cold treats for their children without giving a

second thought to Harvey's recent attempt to rile them up. For Nicole and Jared, there was no reason

to allow pesky trivialities to ruin their day.

Back at the Italian restaurant, Lulu came up with an idea as everyone was finishing the last of their

meals and preparing to go home. "Why don't we change things up and go out for some drinks?"

Instantly, a colleague of hers said, "I'll have to pass, Lulu. I need to organize some documents when I

get back."

"I won't be going either. There's a curfew in my place."

Several of her co-workers went on to inform her of their inability to join, to which Lulu responded in

understanding. ” Alright. It's optional. No pressure there."

Once those who had opted out had departed, Lulu looked around and saw that the only ones left were

June, Samuel,

Spencer, Ellar, Patricia, and herself.
