My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 1391

Chapter 1391

"You can wait outside. Having Martin here alone will do," Nicole said softly.

Once Jared had heard her words, he became concerned for a bit, but he left the room nonetheless. He then took a seat on the couch and gave Max a call.

Inside the medical room, Martin looked at Nicole and softly said, "Take your hands off the wound, Nicole. Let me look at it."

Upon hearing that, she slowly lifted her hands.

The moment he saw that Nicole’s face was perfectly fine, Martin was stunned. "Your face. Why did he said you're injured?"

"Hush! Lower your voice. I'm putting up an act with Harvey, and Jared doesn’t know about it." Nicole sat up, took a napkin, and wiped the liquid off her face.

Martin glanced outside before walking up to her side and asked, "What the hell is going on?"

"You'll find out soon enough. For now, you just need to help with getting this ruse going." Nicole shot Martin a glance before lying back down on the bed.

Looking at Nicole, Martin said in defeat, "How do you want me to help?"

"Make it as if I’ve been seriously injured, and do it in such a way that we can fool even Jared."

Indeed, if the ruse could deceive Jared, it would also be clever enough to deceive Joyce, as well as others.

"This is quite a tough ask, I must say." Martin looked at Nicole in the eye and shot her a frown.

"Don't worry. I believe that you'll be able to do it." Nicole gave Martin a look of confidence.

She believed that Martin could definitely pull it off as she could not find anyone who would be able to do this better than he could.

"Alright. I'll give it a try, I suppose," Martin said as he began planning his moves.

After sitting in the living room for a period of time, Jared grew anxious.

He walked into the medical room to peek in from outside, but unfortunately, he could see nothing, so he muttered to himself, "What's taking them so long?"

Twenty minutes later, the door opened from the inside as Martin helped Nicole out.

The second Jared heard the sound of the door swinging open, he got up and made a beeline for the medical room, but as soon as he saw her, he halted, unable to proceed further; her appearance had made his heart drop

His eyes widened in shock. "How did it become so serious?!"

"I'm so sorry. I did my best," Martin said, giving Jared a look of defeat and helplessness.

Nicole was about to laugh when she saw Jared's expression, but to keep the ruse up, she could only stifle the urge to do so.

Solemnly and slowly, he walked upto Nicole with a look of unmistakable pain on his face. "Does it hurt?"

Nicole shook her head and remained silent. As she was already putting up an act, she had decided not to speak at all.

Seeing that Nicole had not given Jared a reply, Martin responded in her stead, right after shooting her a glance. "It does hurt a little, but it's nothing too serious. I gave her the best medicines I've got, so the pain will be somewhat bearable.
