My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 20

Nicole glanced at Raine and said unhurriedly, "No, I just taught an unruly classmate a lesson.”

If she had really wanted to fight, Austin would have been in the hospital now.

"Unruly?" Daniel's face turned a little graver. "Were they bullying you? If true, they should be taught a lesson."

Norah did not expect her parents to spoil Nicole so much. She was jealous and acted as if she was worried. "Dad, that being said, fighting is wrong.

Besides, the kid she taught a lesson to today is from the Woods family."

Raine also agreed. "Yeah, she has offended the Woods family. I am afraid that it will not be just her but the entire Riddle family that has to bear the consequences."

"The Woods family?" Daniel and Gloria’s faces turned a little pale upon hearing the name. The Woods family was San Joto's most prominent new rich, very wealthy, and they were all rogues.

No one in San Joto wanted to mess with them, yet Nicole had offended one of them on her first day of school.

"Nicole, is what they say true?" Daniel sensed the

tricky situation. Intending to protect her daughter, he had to figure out the actual situation and think of a way to protect Nicole.

Nicole looked at Norah and Raine; they were all annoying squawkers. But she did not want to lie when she saw her parents' concerned look. "It is true."

Those three words caused Daniel's and Gloria's expressions to change.

"What should we do about this, Daniel? Should we tell Dad?" The Woods family had always been nasty. The Riddle family had better be prepared in case the Woods came after them.

"Well, I am not sure." Daniel felt it was better not to alarm his father, but the Woods family was difficult to deal with.

Norah saw the situation and took the opportunity to speak. "Dad, Mom, it will not alarm Grandpa."

Turning their eyes to Norah, Daniel and Gloria seemed to have found their key to the problem. "Why do you say that?"

Norah hurriedly said, "It was Nicole's first day in school today, and Austin does not seem to know that Nicole is from the Riddle family. That is why the school forum post only says that Nicole will be expelled and does not mention the Riddle family at all."

Her expression seemed anxious, but deep down inside, she was gloating over it. This brat was about to

be expelled on the first day at school. How she wished Austin would kick her out of school now.

"Expel?" Gloria's expression looked even paler upon hearing the word "expel." They had beaten their brain out to get Nicole into Royal Creek Institute High School, and today she is about to be expelled.

Nicole could not sit still at seeing Norah and Snow use the issue to smash her down. She said, "Dad, Mom, don’t worry. I will not be expelled."

Seeing that Nicole was still so conceited, Raine said sarcastically, "It is not up to you. Everyone knows that Mr. Woods is the trustee of the Royal Creek Institute. Expulsion is the best thing you could hope for when you offend the grandson of the Woods family."

"Raine, don’t say that." Snow reproached Raine and took a step closer to Nicole. "Raine has always been straight-talking. Please don't mind. But she is telling the truth. It is best not to get the Riddle family involved. You shouldn’t get upset if you are expelled."

Raine sounded like she was comforting her, but Nicole could sense Raine’s pretentious concern.

"Don't worry; I will not get upset because I will not be expelled." Nicole still had a determined look on her face, which upset Snow and Raine.

It got to Norah, too. Yet, she continued pretending to be concerned. "I know you and Mr. Ellison have met once. But the Woods family is powerful; Mr. Ellison probably will not want to get himself involved. Your chances of staying are slim."
