My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1548

But the instant Nicole thought of Scott, she let out a sigh.

Prior to this, she had left him just like that. Scott might not be aware of it yet, but the collaboration between them would have to end soon. There was little to be gained in forcing the both of them to work together any longer.

Without thinking too much into it, Nicole left the Golden Coast Building.

But just as she reached the lower floor and stepped out of the elevator, she bumped into Harvey, who was on his way in.

Harvey did not seem to be in a good condition. He looked like he had not slept for the entire night as he walked forward with the large, heavy bags under his eyes. However, a fleeting glimpse of light flashed in his tired eyes as soon as he saw her.

Nicole proceeded to ignore the look on his face, even if she had noticed it.

Harvey then went up to her, and in a faint voice, he asked, "You're here this early?"

During the night before, Harvey had not been able to sleep because of her. But when they met again that morning, he did not have the heart to ignore her.

"Yes." Nicole nodded.

Instantly, a sharp pain radiated across his eyes.

Nicole noticed the look in his eyes and began to feel a little uncomfortable.

In response to that, she simply said, "Thank you for the help you've given Kelly and the rest. Our research has ended today, so we'll be moving out in three days."

'She was serious about what she said yesterday,' Harvey thought, his expression turning stiff.

His heart was heavy and aching, as if a rock was pressing against it. However, his pride prevented him from pleading to her.

All he replied was, "Okay."

"That's all. I'm leaving."

Judging from the servant's straight posture and meticulous bodily movements, Nicole could tell that he was a soldier too. Even the guards on the road were of military background.

With that said, regular people would never be able to enter the Guzman family manor with ease. Even if Nicole and Carl were to sneak into that place, they might not be able to escape.

Soon after, the servant brought her past the open-air corridor to a three-story building which was well hidden within the backyard.

Nicole glanced over, instantly knowing that the exterior of the building was patrolled by countless security details and guards. 'So, the manor in the middle is actually the Guzman family's real house.

After she had entered the hall, the servant led her into an elevator, which brought them up to the hall at the highest level.

In contrast to the exterior where soldiers and guards were on high alert, the interior was not as intense. The place was no longer lined with watchful eyes like how it was out there. Instead, the atmosphere within seemed a lot more home-like.

"Nicole!"
