My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1984

There was a hint of skepticism when Lawrence deliberately refused Nicole returning to the country. The excuse of him not having enough power and influence in San Joto was suspicious enough.

'Lawrence was a very cautious person to begin with. He never does things he's unsure of.' Nicole took a deep breath, as if to organize her thoughts. She stretched out her hand to Lawrence.

"Thank you so much for always being considerate of me. But don't you worry. Now that I'm home, you're still my friend and it won't ever change. I must congratulate you for getting into Hustuaburg though if there's anything you need help with. Don't be afraid to ask me for help." Nicole smiled brightly. Her face was filled with sincerity.

Lawrence's mood somewhat eased a little after listening to Nicole's words.

'It seems like she believes me, which is enough for me.' Lawrence reached out his hand to shake Nicole's, smiling. "Alright, I should congratulate you too, CEO of the Riddle Corporation."

Nicole was taken aback. She blinked before replying, "How did you find out about this?"

Lawrence smiled calmly. "It's no secret actually. Your grandfather gave you all his shares. Everyone knows that the moment you're back, you are to fulfill his wishes."

Nicole sighed. 'Everyone seems to have accepted this as reality. I guess it's only me who feels like the responsibility is a huge burden.'

"I've never managed a company before, so I'm not sure if I'm the right fit. This is such a huge responsibility for me."

Nicole just wants to take care of her children without having to deal with such complicated affairs.

"Don't worry about it. If you have any questions, you can ask me anytime." Lawrence's gentle look and reassurance made Nicole feel more at ease.

"Okay."

The two of them chatted for a little while more before Nicole saw Lawrence out. Sean and Steve had been watching both Lawrence and Nicole from the balcony since earlier.
