My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1357

"I was also shocked when I saw that it was Joyce. She had always struck me as the soft, vulnerable sort, so who would have known that she would be so despicable!" Harvey bellowed, as he hated anyone who would dare to hurt Nicole.

"Nicole, now that we know all of this is Joyce's doing, should we send someone to get rid of her?" Harvey asked.

All he had to do was to make a call. Nicole did not even have to make a move on her own and Harvey could instantly get rid of Joyce on her behalf.

"It seems to me that she has hated me for a long time..."

"I'm more than grateful to you for helping me to this extent. For the next step however, I've decided that it'd be a personal matter between me and her. Because of this, I'll have to take care of it on my own." An icy glint flashed in Nicole's eyes, making Harvey, who was sitting directly across, shudder.

"Nicole, based on what we've learned from these few incidents, I can tell that Joyce is the ruthless sort. Even if you don't want me to get involved, I should at least tell Jared about this, don't you think?" Harvey said, giving her an anxious look.

He was worried that Joyce might hurt Nicole again.

"Thank you for risking your life for me and helping me out today. You must be tired. I think you should go home early and get some rest," Nicole replied, thanking him without answering his question.

"You're acting like we're strangers by saying that," Harvey said. "I can't really say that it was risky, and perhaps I am a little tired, but I'm feeling a lot better now after having that cup of coffee you've made."

Harvey did not expect Nicole to thank him for all that he had done for her, but he was satisfied as long as Nicole was happy.

"Anyway, I won't bother you anymore for today," he continued. "If you don't want Jared to find out about this, I'm willing to back you up whenever you need it. Call me if you need anything."

As soon as he had uttered the last word, Harvey chugged down the last bit of coffee he had left. Then, he put on that set of casual clothes, shot Nicole a glance, waved at her, and left.

Nicole burst into laughter as she saw how ridiculous he looked in those clothes, and after Harvey had left, she began to think again.

On the other hand, Jared was just done with his meeting. He then returned to his office and checked the messages on his phone.

The first message was a report from his men, which informed him that the owner had brought a man to the McCarthy family ceremony.

As soon as Jared had read the second message however, his eyes widened. Based on what was stated in the report, while his men were tailing and protecting Nicole, she had gone to the place where the McCarthy family had performed their ceremony.
