My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 167

Chapter 167

As she was a movie star, Chloe’s situation was understandable. Nicole, on the other hand, had not

even secured her place within the family, and she did not even deign to come back. Even if the old man

were to stand up for her all this while, he would still be unhappy about it.

The two looked at each other, and sweat started to come down from their foreheads. Both Samuel and

Spencer too anxiously gave Nicole a call. They had not seen their little sister much this week and

thought that they could have a nice chat with her today, but it turned out that she did not return home at

all.

Even the usually steady Sean had a worried look in his eyes. ‘Nicole’s behavior, be it intentional or not,

it’s tantamount to an affront to grandpa. We hear nothing about her during our family dinner, which is

held once a week, and she is absent without notice. This must be an affront to his authority in

grandpa’s eyes.’

At this moment, Mr. Riddle Sr.’s face was so grim one could wring the bitterness out of it.

Seeing this scene, Norah was gleeful. Although she did not know why Nicole did not come back, when

she saw the old man being dissatisfied with Nicole, she was happy.

At this moment, Raine took the opportunity and said, “Grandpa, Nicole straight up refused to speak to

Snow and me at school, as if she can’t be bothered with the Riddle family. She even got along with the

bully from the neighboring school and did not focus on her studies. She isn’t studying hard like what

Uncle Daniel said.”

Snow waited until Raine was done before she spoke, “Raine, don’t say that. Perhaps Nicole was held

back by something…”

Before Snow was done speaking , Karen sneered, “Snow, you don’t have to speak for Nicole. The fact

she did not come back today proved everything. It does seem like we are nothing to

her.”

Dillon, too frowned. “Did Nicole really think herself a big shot or something? She isn’t even assured a

place in the family, so what’s with the posturing?”

Preston had his headphones on and could not be bothered to participate in this crusade against Nicole.

However, his character on the phone had already died five times in a row, and he tossed his phone

aside somewhat irritably. Just as he was about to say something, Damien suddenly spoke. “Enough,

stop it.”

Miley looked at her husband, too, not understanding why he suddenly spoke up for Nicole.

Even Dexter looked at hie aldau huatl

Dillon was just angry about that.” ..

Emma looked at Dexter too. She had always kept her tongue and only said a sentence. “Listen to

Damien and stop it.”

Dillon looked at his elder brother with some dissatisfaction, not understanding why the latter suddenly

became neutral.

Everett, on the other hand, gave his father a thoughtful look.

Daniel gave Damien a grateful look and wanted to give Nicole another call. “Father, Nicole might be on

her way. Let’s wait a–”

Mr. Riddle Sr. said with a gloomy face. “No need. Since she isn’t willing to come back here to eat,

there’s no need to wait for her.”

It seemed like he had spoiled Nicole a little too much, so much so that she became so defiant.

He angrily knocked his walking stick onto the ground as he hissed coldly. “Ignore here. Tell the cook to

serve the food!”

As soon as the words left his mouth, some were elated; some were worried. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

Aside from Preston, everyone from Dillon’s household wore a look of surprise on their face. They had

long disliked Nicole, especially Snow and Raine. They thought, ‘Now that Nicole has totally fallen out of

favor with the old man, without the backing of our family, she won’t amount to much now.’
