My Wife Act Differently Behind Me -
Chapter 117
Chapter 117
She saw that Jared was good-looking and wanted to chat him up, so she deliberately skipped class to try to get close to him in the morning.
Yet this man was really indifferent, as if no one was above his notice.
She had wanted to approach him a few times but was frightened by his coldness.
It was not until Nicole came into the cafe that he revealed his first smile today, and she was stunned by it.
That made her fall for him, and jealous of Nicole!
Thinking of the discussions in the school forum about Nicole, with nary anything positive, how could the girl watch on as he gets deceived by Nicole.
So that was why she stood up out of a sense of justice.
She had thought that Jared would listen to her, or at the very least should be curious as to why she said that.
Yet, Jared did not even bother to look at her as he focused on Nicole and said plainly, "Want me to throw her out?"
Nicole had been surrounded with nothing but gossip today, and Jared's words was a refreshing breeze,
She looked and him with an eyebrow raised as she casually said, "No need, she'll leave by herself."
Sure enough, how could the girl endure such a girl attitude from Jared as her temper flared, "What the web said is true, Nicole is really a vixen!" Nicole did not even react, but Jared's eyes immediately turned chilly.
He looked at the girl, and said coldly, "Apologize."
Jared's aura was not something any ordinary person could withstand, much less a normal schoolgirl.
When he looked
over, the girl was so scared she burst into tears as she cried
loudly, "I'm sorry, Nicole!"
And then she immediately ran out of the cafe as if she had suffered a great humiliation.
Jared frowned but Nicole stretched her hand out to stop him." Don't mind it."
A good four-fifth of a girl could never stand being forced to apologize to a girl by a man they liked.
Jared looked at her impassive face as a layer of frost slowly appeared in his eyes.
"Is the general quality of the students in the Royal Creek Institute like that?"
Nicole gave him a strange look.
How could she not catch that he was asking whether she was bullied or not in a roundabout way, so when she heard that, she smiled and said, "No, it's just that some have poor upbringing to begin with and has nothing to do with the Royal Creek Institute."
It was only then did Jared's eyes soften.
He looked at Nicole, who was looking at the sky outside, and wanted to say something but could not replace the words.
She has yet to withdraw her hand on his, and as he looked over, he was slightly taken aback.
There were no accessories on her fair left hand, but there was a black medium sized Esperian character tattooed on her index finger, exuding a strange beauty
Nicole seemingly noticed his gaze and simply just pulled her hand back.
It was only then did Jared look away as he turned towards her and smiled.
"The tattoo fits you well."
Nicole waved him off.
"It's something I've gotten while I was still a naive girl, and I'm just too lazy to get rid of it now.
So, I just kept it there."
Jared's lips twitched a little but did not ask further as he wanted to enjoy his time with her.
"Want to order something?"
Hearing that, Nicole looked over at him, and after some thought, she slowly said, "I feel like having mocha today." Jared perked up and looked at her as soon as he heard that.
Her taste had always been more towards plain and bitter, but she actually ordered mocha this time around.
But he did not ask too much and only nodded as he asked the waiter to serve it up.
Soon, the coffee was served.
He placed the coffee before Nicole and pretended to ask, "Nicole, why are there callouses on your left hand?"
Most people are right-handed, but Nicole's right hand was very smooth, almost perfectly smooth, yet when she turned her left hand around there was some almost indiscernible callouses on it. And the location was very special, the outer side of the purlicue.
Jared's gaze slowly deepened.
This position, it can only be
"It was a mark left after my shooting practice."
Firearm callouses.
The voice in his heart and Nicole's voice said the same thing at the same time.
Jared then looked up, his gaze towards Nicole deepened somewhat.
He did not expect that his fiancé here to know how to shoot.
Nicole was holding her coffee cup and taking small sips, and seemed like she was extremely calm, as if what she had just said was nothing big.
Could it be just simple practice target in the range? Is that why she is so skilled?
That made him extremely curious.
When she looked at Jared taking a measure of her, she felt a tinge of caution within her.
'This guy, he isn't suspecting me, right?' She wondered.
Taking a glance at her watch, and seeing the time, it was almost time for Austin and the others to come over for their revision.
She needed to make a move.
And speaking of the devil, just when Nicole thought of Austin, a bright voice came from the door of the cafe.
"Boss."
Nicole's eyes were impassive as she took her bag and got ready to go upstairs.
Before she left; she said to Jared, "Give them an Americano
each.
Studying is hard, so they could use the perk up."
"Put them on my tab as usual." And for some reason, coffee was not served last time, so Nicole purposefully reminded him, "No forgetting them this time." Jared looked at her silhouette, the jealousy lit up in his eyes was almost unconcealable.
He did not respond to her, but instead walked slowly to the counter and said, "Six Americanos."
