My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1137

"No, no, you've misheard," Harvey quickly denied, knowing the if he were to piss Nicole off trying to be playful, he would be digging his own grave.

"Miss Riddle, we should board the flight now." Kelly, who was keeping watch of the time, reminded Nicole.

"Let's go." The trio then made their way to the entrance.

Jared sent a text message to Nicole but got no reply, so he figured that Nicole was already on the plane. 'I would've sent her off if grandpa isn't in the hospital.'

Now, all Jared could do was think about how much he missed her in his office.

On the plane, Nicole proceeded to put on her headphones to watch a movie, as she had nothing better to do. She had chosen to spend her time on a comedy film.

Harvey, who was sitting next to Nicole, took a glance at the movie that she was watching. "I've watched this before. Something funny is going to happen. Wait for it."

Nicole rolled her eyes at him and continued watching.

"Something is going to appear... Right here! Hahaha...!" Harvey burst out laughing, but Nicole did not find anything funny at all.

"Why aren't you laughing?" Harvey asked Nicole.

"I hate spoilers." Nicole looked at Harvey, evidently annoyed.

Harvey's smile instantly vanished from his face as he shifted in his seat, and turned his own screen on.

Displeased, Nicole switched her screen off. Seeing this, Harvey began sneaking glances at her, not wanting to speak to her as he was afraid that he would add fuel to the fire.

Throughout the journey, Harvey did not really pay attention to the movie he was watching as he was busy thinking about Nicole. However, Nicole kept her eyes closed until they landed.

"It's time to get off the plane, Nicole." Harvey patted her gently.

She gradually opened her eyes. "Wow, that's fast, wasn't it? Let's go then."

Nicole then stretched and got ready to get off the plane.

"Nice to meet you too," Kelly responded in kind.

"Let's go." Ike extended his arm and gestured to them, taking them to their vehicle.

Ike thought that Nicole was coming alone, so he personally drove over to pick her up, as he wanted to have a chat with her. He did not expect her to bring along two other guests, who had ruined his plan. However, there were enough seats for all of them, and so, none of them had to get a cab. Once they were in, Harvey and Ike took the front seats, while the ladies, Nicole and Kelly, sat at the back.

Ike could only look at Nicole from the rear-view mirror. "Nicole, we've been stuck on the same problem for a few days now. Thank God you're here. I believe you'll be able to help us out."

"What could have been difficult enough to cause an expert like you to be at his wit's end, I wonder?" Nicole asked, as she was a little surprised at what he had said.

"The issue is, we can't seem to find common ground and arrive to some understanding," Ike said. "Some of them wanted to implement solution A while some wanted solution B. That's why there have been some conflicts going on between the teams during the discussion.

"Anyway, I don't even want to go there these days." Ike finished, looking defeated.

"You're overreacting. If there's a problem, go ahead and solve it. Just use whichever solution is better. It's understandable that conflicts would arise from time to time," Nicole comforted him.
