My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2906

Jared then walked out of the kitchen with a tray in hand, after which he placed all of Nicole's favorite

dishes in front of her.

After staring at the food which Jared had prepared, Nicole looked up at him, gave him a beaming smile,

and muttered," Thank you."

The food, which Jared had prepared, were all of Nicole's favorite dishes from the past. Clearly, Jared

had remembered every single detail about her, down to what her favorite dishes should look like and

the way they were plated.

"Let's eat." Nicole smiled.

While they were munching on a juicy cut of lamb Wellington, Nicole began talking about her memories

of the distant past. More than half a decade had passed since their honeymoon in Panama, and yet, all

of it felt like yesterday. A great deal of things had changed too, but there were some that remained the

same. Such was life.

Upon seeing the wide grin on Nicole's face, Jared was touched. Everything that he had done today was

all for her.

"I haven't had any of your cooking in years, but the taste is still the same. It's as lovely as ever." Nicole

commented, enjoying the food.

"Although I have not made any of these since you disappeared, I have never forgotten their recipe."

Jared smiled.

Nicole nodded. "Yeah, I can taste it."

"I'm glad that you like it." Jared smiled, pleased to hearthat his cooking was still up to par.

"Close your eyes." Nicole said, and flashed him a cheeky smile.

At that moment, Jared did not understand what was going on, but he did as he was told anyway.

Then, he felt a gentle peck on his cheek. As he opened his eyes, he smirked, raised a brow, and

lowered his head.

"I'm sorry, I did not prepare anything for the occasion. Take this as a token of my gratitude." Nicole

shook her head before giving him a coquettish side eye.

"If you really want to thank me..."Jared inched closer with a suggestive look on his face.

"Well, I suppose..." she began, but was quickly silenced.

Before she knew it, Jared had planted a kiss on her lips; a kiss so passionate and strong that it was

hard for her to resist. For the next two minutes, they were locked in that smooch, and it would have

gone on forever had a clang not sounded, causing the both of them to flinch. As it turned out, one of

their forks had dropped onto the floor, bringing them back to their senses.

Nicole's cheeks were blushing as she pushed away. Then, she grabbed a new fork from a table nearby

and passed it to

Jared. "Let's finish our dinner."

Jared took the fork from her, his eyes brimming with affection. Then, he cut Nicole's steak into bite

sizes and placed them in front of her, before turning to his own piece.

After the both of them were done with their little romantic dinner, they left the cafe and returned home.

Now in the courtyard, they decided to take a stroll to the garden center under the silvery gleam of the

moon, which was at its most brilliant tonight. After a few steps forward with their fingers interlocked,

they turned to face each other, their hearts quivering with all the love they had for one another.

The next morning, the sun rose, its rays lancing through the slits in the blinds.

After Jared and Nicole were done with their breakfast, they got into the car and headed to their

respective offices.

Max started the car engine and in a low voice, he reported," Sir? Ma'am? Scorpio has made a move." Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"What did he do this time?" Jared asked, his voice deep and cold.

"It seems like they're trying to contact Damien." Max replied, his eyes stern and serious.

Nicole frowned. "Damien? But why him?"

Damien had already been locked up, so it made no sense why they would even attempt to contact him.

He would be a liability, unless he possessed information of great

importance to the Eastern Falcon.

"Last night, Pisces sent us a message," Max added, "For him to risk his own safety and send us a

message during such a sensitive period means that he has made a serious discovery."

Nicole looked up and turned to look at Jared. "They were determined to save Damien the other day. Do

you think there's a connection between these two events?"

It was clear to Nicole now that Damien was an important asset to their enemies, and that the situation

was not as clear cut as they had previously imagined. Damien's escape was just another one of

Everett's ideas.

"Yeah, it's possible." Jared's eyes darkened.

Then, in an icy tone of voice, he said, "Do whatever you must, but you need to find out what the exact

situation is."

"Understood," Max nodded in acknowledgment.
