My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 2804

Stanley looked at Nicole, stunned, unsure of how to respond to her. The situation between him and Tia had become so confusing and convoluted that he could not understand it either. Since the night when they accidentally kissed, Tia had been avoiding him. He could also feel that Tia had been keeping her distance from him.

"If Tia genuinely doesn't like you, she wouldn't have felt uncomfortable just now. She's probably just uncertain about her feelings. You should try being more direct with her. It's the best course of action for the both of you," Nicole said meaningfully, and gave Stanley a pat on the back.

"I should be more direct?" Stanley asked, and gave Nicole a frown. "But it would be too sudden for Tia."

"If you don't take the initiative in relationships, someone else will," Nicole pointed out. 'If Stanley does not make the first move, what else can he expect? Is he waiting for Tia to take the first step?'

Tia had always felt that she was inferior to Stanley. This much was obvious, judging from how Tia would formally address Stanley whenever she saw him. While there might be a possibility that Tia had fallen for Stanley, she had also been left to constantly worry about the difference in status between them.

As of now Stanley was caught in a daze. There was even a frown on his face when Nicole mentioned that someone else might pursue Tia if he did not.

"Tonight's dinner with Cherry can be a good chance for you to come clean. You should think about it," Nicole suggested.

She then linked her arm to Jared's and left.

Stanley stood there, watching as Jared and Nicole got into their car and left for work. Nicole's words were still fresh in his mind. There was that, and there was the thought of Tia becoming someone else's. Above all, there was also Nicole's reminder that tonight was his chance to seize.

Nicole got out of the car when they had reached the headquarters of Riddle Corporation, and that was when Jared reminded her, "I'll be here when you get off work."

This prompted Nicole to ask in shock, "Are you joining us for dinner?"

"Yes, I'll be there to accompany you," Jared said gently, before ordering Max to drive off.

As the car disappeared into the distance, Nicole could not help but smile at the thought of Jared joining them for a dinner of such sort, something which she thought Jared would be reluctant to attend. However, she would gladly accept that he would be there to accompany her since he was okay with doing it.

"The car is gone, so what are you still looking at? Are you reluctant to part ways with him for a few hours?" Lulu's voice blared out near her ear.
