My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 787

His face seemed a little red.

Jared cocked an eyebrow in disbelief. "What's wrong with my face?"

Nicole hesitated for a moment. "It's a little red. Don't tell me you feel shy now. Isn't it a little too late?" Earlier, he suddenly proposed to her without giving her a heads-up. It was embarrassing for her.

"Hmm, I'm not feeling shy. It was you who was bashful when I proposed to you just now. I saw your smitten face." He had never seen Nicole blushing, and this made him feel she was cute.

After getting teased, she pinched his arm in retaliation. "Nonsense. You have grown a glib tongue recently, eh?"

Strangely, Jared did not feel any pain when Nicole pinched his arm. 'What the hell is wrong with me?' He ripped off his tie and opened the window.

Nicole looked at him again in bafflement, feeling that his face was even redder than before. Seeing him open the car window, she could not help but frown. "Are you feeling hot?"

Jared nodded helplessly. "Yeah, maybe it is the red wine."

A light flashed in Nicole's eyes, and she recalled the glass of red wine that Chloe had given Jared.

"Red wine..." she murmured, suddenly looking up at Jared again, then reaching over and pulling one of Jared's hands to examine his pulse rate.

"What are you doing?" Jared stared at her. He could drive with one hand, but it was a little dangerous. Luckily, they were now still waiting for the traffic light.

Nicole felt his pulse for a moment, and then her face sank. "You have been drugged."

Seeing his condition, Nicole got out of the car and swapped places with him. He would sit in the back seat while she would drive.

Jared got into the back seat obediently. Nicole saw the traffic jam ahead, nosed the car into an alley, then took out the old mobile phone she carried with her and pressed the button on the side. The mobile phone transformed into a map display with a screen.

It surprised Jared to see Nicole have such a high-tech gadget with her.

Nicole issued an instruction to the screen. "Find me the fastest route to the hospital."

"You got it, master." The phone's AI quickly replied. After a second, a roadmap was shown on the screen. Nicole immediately followed the map and stepped on the gas pedal. Inertia threw Jared straight back into the seat.

Nicole showed off her driving skill, complete with a few drifting stunts. They reached the hospital in just ten minutes.
