My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1565

"We couldn't get through your phone so we could only come back and tell Mom and Dad. We only just found out which hospital you were at and were just about to visit you," Samuel continued.

It was only then that Nicole remember that her smart phone was submerged in the water when she fell off the bridge, and she did not have the time to buy a new one.

"I'm fine. I've already done a full body checkup," she said without going into details.

Jared glanced at her with a look of pain in his eyes. 'This silly girl refuses to mention the fact she almost drowned earlier and here she is, understating the matter of life and death so nonchalantly.'

He could not help but to wonder if her previous missions were all so perilous.

For some reason, Nicole's physique made him feel as though she was inexplicably fragile, driving his desire to protect her with all his might.

At that moment, Gloria stepped forward and held Nicole in a tight embrace, checking if the latter was alright. "Nicole, are you really alright? Mom was worried sick."

Fortunately, she had used the Beacon and the minor wounds from the collision had healed quickly, leaving only some a few abrasions.

"I'm fine, Mom. Just some minor injuries," Nicole comforted Gloria.

It was only then that Daniel heaved a sigh of relief. "It's good that you're unharmed. Your mother almost passed out earlier from shock."

Stanley too nodded his head. "As long as you're fine, Nicole. Moments ago, we were really worried."

Both Sean and Steve looked at each other. They did not speak but there was a loving and doting look in their eyes.

Getting into a car accident and falling off a bridge was no trivial matter. Any other person might not be able to even withstand that sort of horrid experience. Yet, Nicole was so adept at making it look as if it was not an issue at all, that they could not even begin to comprehend this at all. They could not help but be impressed and anxious for her at the same time.

"Stop worrying. Jared had rushed to the scene immediately and sent me to the hospital. I've already done a full body checkup," Nicole said, quickly bringing Jared into the picture.

Only then did everyone see Jared coming out from the driver's seat.

Sean took a deep breath before proffering his hand to Jared. "Mr. Johnston, thank you for looking after my little sister."

Jared returned the handshake and said, "You're welcome. Nicole is my fiancée after all. It is my duty."
