The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 2281

Julie pursed her lips, thought about it for a moment, and said, “Nicole, calm down first. Let me analyze it for you. We can’t be sure of his relationship with that woman. But right now, you two are still married. No matter who is around him, you’re still his wife. Since Clayton is back, he must’ve come back to look for you. Otherwise, why would he stay in Mediania where he has far less influence?”

Nicole’s eyelashes trembled slightly. She looked up at Julie.

“Really?”

Julie patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile, “There’s also another possibility. What if he lost his memory due to the earthquake or some other reason? Maybe that’s why he didn’t come back to look for you. After all, you also lost your memory back then when you gave birth to Chatty. Remember?”

Nicole’s face froze slightly and turned a little pale.

Did he forget her?

If he lost his memory, why did he come back to Mediania?

However, if he did not lose his memory, why did he not look for her?

Nicole gritted her teeth and said with difficulty, “What if he didn’t forget and fell in love with someone else instead?”

This was her greatest fear.

Nicole did not imagine that she would be in this position one day.

Julie silently glanced at her and said in a wavering tone, “Then you can kneel and beg him to like you. Tell him that you can do anything for him if he doesn’t see other women. You can compromise!”

Nicole’s face changed instantly.

“No way in hell!”

How could she do something that would hurt her dignity?

How could she beg someone to like her?

Nicole almost cursed out loud.

Julie laughed lightly and looked at her.

“So, what are you struggling with? What you said is the worst-case scenario, and it’s not necessarily the truth. Are you so insecure about your marriage? Does the presence of a woman beside him make you restless? Not to mention, this is just your guess. Even if it’s a fact, so what? You know that it’s normal for people to have a change of heart. Just look at how ruthless Eric was to you back then. Now he wants to cling to you, but you didn’t even give him a chance. If you two still like each other, then you should stay together. But if he has a change of heart, why should you give up your dignity to keep him around?”

Julie’s words struck a chord with Nicole.

It was a painful wake-up call.

She stared blankly at Julie. All the complicated things in front of her were suddenly sorted out.

Her burning heart instantly cooled.

Right, she should not jump to a conclusion so soon.

If he wanted to come back, she would welcome him with open arms.

If he did not want to, she would not force him. She would just have to slowly heal the pain caused by his departure.

However, Nicole was already content knowing that he was still alive.

She clenched her fists and loosened them again.

Nicole pursed her lips. The expression on her face was no longer so stiff and dazed. Her eyes were glimmering.

“You’re right! I was too caught up in my head.”

“You just didn’t think of it yet. Are you going to look for him now?”

Julie looked at her.

Nicole hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.

Her smile was much more natural.

“No. I know where he is, and there will be more opportunities in the future, so I won’t go to him now.”

“Well, I support you no matter what. Just let me know if you need my help.”

They were not just best friends. They were also family.

Nicole nodded and hugged Julie.

“Thanks, Jules. I’m really enlightened now!”

Julie laughed along with Nicole.

When Kai came out of the ward and saw them hugging each other, he was frustrated and a little jealous.

“Why are you two hugging each other?”

Nicole finally raised her head to tease Kai.

“You’re even jealous of this now? Third Brother, are you going through a midlife crisis? Are you jealous because Julie doesn’t hug you?”

Kai’s eyes widened all of a sudden.
