My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 2801

Upon hearing this, Nolan suddenly looked up at Nicole, his eyes wide and his face pale.

"Mommy..."

And after a moment of hesitation, Nolan whispered, "Mommy, I'm tired. I want to go to sleep."

"Okay," Nicole nodded and patted him on the back. "Go take a shower first."

After Nolan had walked into the bathroom and closed the door behind him, Nicole turned to Jared and said, "You should take Lana to her room and get her ready for bed too."

"Mommy, why does Nolan look upset?" Lana asked with concern after sensing Nolan's sudden change in mood.

"It's nothing. He is just tired. A good night's sleep will help," Nicole explained.

Jared then picked Lana up and said, "It's late. We should go to sleep too."

After Jared had brought Lana out of the room, Nicole sighed softly.

She had anticipated that Nolan would eventually figure it out, but she did not expect it to happen so soon.

"Mommy..."

Nolan came out after taking a quick shower, his tone carrying a hint of disappointment as he asked, "Mommy, are we being targeted by someone again?"

The information released about the five crests were still fresh in his mind. 'Are our enemies so persistent that they are tracking us again?'

In response, Nicole patted Nolan in the head. "There's something suspicious about this game, but we haven't figured anything out yet."

"Why didn't you tell me, Mommy? I could have stopped playing this game." Nolan asked.

The last thing he wanted was to cause more problems for Nicole to deal with.

With a gentle smile on her face, Nicole softly said, "It's okay. Besides, I have every reason to believe that the answer is in this game since they're the ones who've designed it."

"Yeah, I know." Nolan nodded. "If I suddenly stop playing right now, they might suspect that we've discovered their intentions."

Nolan had already gone into the deep end, so he had to continue misleading them. Moreover, as Nicole had said, perhaps the answer was in the game itself. Those reasons were more than adequate to keep him playing.

After a while, Nolan laid down on his bed and smiled at Nicole. "Good night, Mommy."

"Good night. Sleep well, my boy."

After pulling the blanket over Nolan, Nicole left the room silently.

When she got back in her room, she saw that Jared was already there waiting for her.

She took a deep breath and remarked, "Nolan is more astute than I thought."

She had expected Nolan to notice it after some time, just not this quickly.
