My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1347

Soon after, Nicole began to notice something about the man. Hugh's grandfather was suddenly diagnosed with a serious illness. He had attempted to borrow money from all of the banks he could find, but to no avail. Days later, however, a huge amount of money were deposited into his bank account, and the sum was what he had used to pay for his grandfather's operation.

"Why would an average person suddenly receive so much money? I'm sure there is more to it…" Nicole could not help but frown as she read the documents.

She immediately did what she could and located where Hugh was. She found out that he was in the hospital.

She looked at the time and thought that it would already be too late for her to make her way there, so she continued perusing the information that Zeke had sent her.

On the other side, Jared had just returned to his mansion. It was all dark and he knew that Nicole had gone to Mrs. Wallace Sr.'s place again. Because of this, he figured that he would have to spend the night alone.

He marched straight to his bedroom. Then, he took his phone out and gave Nicole a video call.

Nicole was still reading through the information when that happened. She picked her phone up and looked at it after hearing the notification sound.

Seeing that it was Jared who was video-calling her, she hesitated and sighed. 'I'm just going to leave it.'

However, she did not realize that her fingers had accidentally tapped the green icon when she placed her phone away.

Nicole went on to read the documents, not knowing that the call was already connected. Jared could not see Nicole anywhere on his screen. All there was, was a sheet of white. He looked at it closely and realized that it was the ceiling.

'Why did she put the phone aside after accepting my call?' he thought. 'Is she giving me the cold shoulder on purpose?'

After waiting for some time, Jared could only hear the clacking from the keys on the keyboard and the mouse.

Not able to wait anymore, he took the initiative to speak first, "Why aren't you talking after you've picked up?"

Nicole, who was totally concentrated on reading the information was startled when she heard Jared's voice coming out of nowhere. She immediately darted her eyes to the door as she thought that he had come to her place.

However, the door was shut, and she could not see Jared anywhere.

She furrowed her brows as she attempted to figure out what was happening. "What's going on?! Am I hallucinating?"
