My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1215

Jared stood outside and waited anxiously. Whenever someone came out from the factory, he would look over and check them out.

"Miss, there's a fire at your destination! I'd advise you not to go there," the cab driver kindly reminded.

"Sir, please just hurry up," Nicole ordered, as she was already panicking in the car and was not in the mood to deal with any of it.

Soon after, the cab stopped at the entrance gate of the factory, with Nicole getting out of the car and running inside at once.

"Miss, you haven't paid for your fare!" the driver shouted.

However, Nicole did not hear him at all, and before he knew it, she was out of his sight already.

"Jared, what is the current condition inside?" Nicole ran up behind him and asked.

"Nicole? What are you doing here?" Jared looked at Nicole in shock.

He did not expect her to receive the news so soon. In fact, he was planning to hide this news from her.

"I rushed here immediately after I saw the news article," Nicole replied.

"Where's Martin?" she questioned.

"He's in there," he answered.

"What is he doing in there? Don't tell me..." Nicole looked at Jared, her eyes widened and her face as pale as sheet.

Her reaction was quickly followed by a sigh of relief. Fortunately, things did not turn out the way she had imagined. "I'll head inside and check things out."

Jared quickly grabbed onto her arm and looked at her sternly. "You can't go in."

"Why? Haven't they extinguished the fire already?" Nicole asked Jared in confusion.

"Although they've extinguished it completely, there are still a lot of risks that we aren't aware of in there. I've checked it out moments ago, and the whole place is still filled with smoke. It's very dangerous for you to enter without a mask," Jared explained to Nicole in haste.

Hearing Jared's explanation, Nicole could only stare at the burned factory helplessly as she panicked.

Martin looked at her and was caught off guard by her kindness. He never thought that Nicole would rush all the way back here for him.

"I-I'm fine...it's just...the products." Martin gave her a look of guilt as he had a tough time putting his misery in words.

Nicole looked back at him. 'We're in the midst of a disaster, and yet the only thing he's worried about is the products? It really pisses me off, seeing him risking his own life to protect the place the way he did!'

Nicole could not help it anymore, and so, she lifted her hands and gave him a smack.

"Ah!" Martin squealed out of pain, after which he looked up in shock as he did not understand why Nicole had struck him.

The only response he got from Nicole was a glare. "You're such a damn fool! The products can be remade again. But if something were to happen to you, we would be in deep s*it!"

It was only then that Martin came back to his senses. 'That's right. I am the core of this entire project.'

A sudden sense of shame and guilt flooded him as he did not realize how important he was, and how much Nicole cared about him.

"I-I was just acting rashly according to the situation...I'm sorry." Martin lowered his head and was at a loss for words.
