My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 220

Nicole understood Jared had to work, so she did not want to bother him. She turned her head to look out of the window at the twilight outside. The person sitting next to her gave her a sense of security.

The half-bottle of red wine gradually fermented and precipitated in her body, making her feel warm.

Nicole unconsciously closed her eyes.

Jared was making a video call. He seemed to have felt something and took off his headset, then looked over at Nicole. The ray of sunset fell on her face, making a beautiful picture of her in his eyes.

On the other end of the video call, Dino saw the side profile of his boss's face and was wide-eyed. His boss looked so gentle as if a boat drifting at sea had finally found a harbor to dock. It was also as if a drowning man had seen a lighthouse in the vast sea. His boss had landed on an island that belonged to him alone.

Jared took a thin blanket from beside him and gently covered it over Nicole's body. He then turned his face around expressionlessly and cut off the video call with Dino.

Dino stared at the black screen, still wide-eyed.

Suddenly, a window popped up along with a concise line of text.

[She has fallen asleep. Send the message now.]

Dino looked incredulously at the message, realizing that the relationship between Nicole and his boss was indeed unusual.

Still, he told Jared about the unfinished business.

Mecrounia had held an election recently, and the new president seemed to have a lot of opinions about the Hustuaburgian; business in the Mecrounian market was tough, with many projects facing problems. He asked Jared what he should do and whether he needed to adjust their strategy.
