My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1045

"How come you are the only one here? Where is Jared?" Harvey came in and asked when he did not see Jared.

"He is out of town on business." Nicole sat back in her chair and said.

"A business trip? After what happened to his grandfather, he had to go on a business trip?" Harvey could not understand Jared's behavior. In his opinion, Jared was a workaholic, and he was still in the mood to travel at this time. If it were him, he could not do that.

"He can't help it." Nicole explained to Jared but said nothing more, because it would involve the internal affairs of the company.

"Hmph, you believe him when he says there is nothing he can do? He is a CEO. Why couldn't he leave things to his subordinates, and why did he need to travel at this time? Could he be…" Harvey had an exaggerated expression on his face.

"Are you here to gossip or to visit Mr. Johnston Sr.?" Nicole could not stand any longer and reminded him.

"Sorry, off-topic." Harvey saw Nicole's expression all change before he realized he had said something he should not have.

"How is his condition?" Harvey returned to the topic, concerned about Mr. Johnston Sr.'s injury.

"He is fine, out of life-threatening condition now."

"Glad to hear. Are you the only one here without Jared?" Harvey looked at her and felt sorry for her.

"Yeah."

"I'm driving." Nicole refused.

"I'm not driving. So why don't you drive me?" Harvey took the opportunity to latch onto her.

Nicole looked at his shameless face and did not know what to do. "Let's go, then." Nicole glanced at Mr. Johnston Sr. one last time before she could leave with relief. "I'm not taking you home. If you get into my car, you will have to go wherever I go." Nicole threatened him.

"It is okay. A car is better than no car." Harvey got in the passenger side and put on his seat belt, and waited for Nicole to get in.

Nicole looked at Harvey in the passenger seat and had a headache. She wanted to go home to rest, and he was following her.
