My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 219

It was like spring water brought a warm current to melt the ice at the river that had been frozen through the years.

His smile melted Nicole's helplessness, and she came to sit down on the soft chair beside him, and so he did.

The plane had taken off. The flight was smooth, with no turbulence. There was a faint scent of wood inside the plane, the freshness of dry amber and the spice of vetiver, with a hazy sense of comfort. Nicole looked through the window at the sky outside the plane and sighed softly.

Jared heard her sigh and turned his head to look at her silently as if asking her what was wrong.

Nicole's gaze was shallow. She stared at Jared but said nothing. Nicole did not know how to tell him that she just suddenly realized one thing: she felt really comfortable by his side.

Jared seemed to have figured out something. There was a tender smile in his eyes. Instead of asking questions, he stood up, went to the wine cabinet, and took a bottle of red wine out. After aerating the wine, he poured each of them a glass.

Nicole looked at the bottle in his hand and raised an eyebrow at the nineteenth-century Petrus. She felt Jared was generous.

Jared seemed to have read her expression and said nonchalantly, "It's only proper to treat our gold guests with the highest level of courtesy. Isn’t it, Miss Doggie Anderson?"

Nicole glanced at him and saw the teasing look in his eyes. She said nothing but just picked up the wineglass and took a gentle sip.

She then looked at Jared again with a faint smile in her eyes, raising her glass to make a toast to him. "I like the taste of this wine," she said softly, but her interest was apparent. After all, it was twenty-thousand-Esperian-dollar red wine. It tasted slightly astringent at first but quickly turned sweet in the mouth. The extremely full-bodied taste made Nicole squint slightly.

Jared looked at her, feeling a powerful attraction toward her. ’She is so adorable,’ he said in his mind. He also raised his glass and made a toast to Nicole with an apparently amorous look in his eyes. His eyes upturned carried a hint of languid charm. "Glad that you like it."

The bottle was quickly emptied, and a flight attendant came in to clean the table. Both Jared and Nicole were still sober. So Jared looked at Nicole and challenged her for another round. "How about another bottle of whiskey?"

No way Nicole would concede. She looked up at Jared in front of her as if returning to the time when the two first met and nodded unequivocally.

The co-pilot was standing outside the door, just about to knock on the door. When he heard what seemed to be a drinking challenge inside, his mouth twitched, and he had no words. He was exasperated because this woman was a bad influence on his employer, who had been leading a clean and healthy life all this while. With this in mind, he walked in with a sour face but said respectfully to Jared, "Mr. Johnston, Dino would like to talk to you."

Jared looked at him with a smile still in his eyes." Bring the things in. I'll deal with it here," he said in a gentle voice.

The co-pilot looked at Jared's expression, feeling surprised to see the other side of his boss.

Hearing Jared's gentle voice, the co-pilot was flattered and quickly went out. He then came back with a communication instrument and an extremely thin tablet and handed them to Jared with both hands.
