My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2721

Nicole sat there in silence as she pondered to herself, 'If Everett is coming back and Lawrence is

already here...!

wonder...were the both of them hiding abroad together and are now coming back one by one here to

crack the code for the Water Crest? This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

'But if cracking the code for the Water Crest is a piece of cake, why did it take Lawrence this much

time?' she wondered. 'But if the Water Crest isn't the reason, what could have gotten Everett to come

back so hastily?'

Three days later, time passed in a blink of an eye, and Damien was still keeping his whereabouts under

wraps. He had only kept his chef around, and had made no movements that could rouse the suspicion

of those who were watching him.

Patricia furrowed her brows, as worry glinted in her eyes." He isn't plotting some kind of grand revenge

plan at home, is he?"

Nicole nodded. "It's a possibility we can't rule out so easily."

'Something must be terribly wrong. How can he be so silent and subdued?' Nicole wondered.

"We couldn't find anything suspicious, no matter how hard we searched. What on earth could he

possibly be scheming? This feels very sinister,” Patricia said.

Benjamin Riddle had suspected that Damien could be waiting for Everett. However, not a single sign

showed that Everett had returned to San Joto or contacted Damien.

Nicole narrowed her eyes. 'If my guess is right, Everett will not be coming back here anytime soon, but

then again, I might be wrong. Perhaps Damien didn't tell Everett about what happened to Chloe. But

then again, Chloe's case hasn't been cleared off entirely by the police, so there's no way that Everett

could've contacted Chloe.'

'I find it very suspicious that Everett is being so quiet about this. Were they already prepared in the

event that something like this happened to Chloe? Nah, these things don't add up,' she thought.

Nicole bit her lip as she looked over at Patricia. "Since nothing is happening, let's just continue to keep

an eye on them."

Nicole waved it off, as she had more pressing matters; tasks which she could not afford to delay over

the petty issue at hand.

"Yes, Ms. Riddle," Patricia agreed, and left the office.

Nicole picked the files on her desk up after Patricia was gone and quickly got to work.

However, it was not long before a knock on her door disrupted her flow. "Come in."

Then, Nicole's secretary walked in. "There's a letter for you. Its sender is anonymous."

Nicole looked up with her brows raised in confusion."

Anonymous?"

'Who on earth would send me a package anonymously?' Nicole asked herself.

"Yeah, the staff at the front desk was unsure if it should be delivered to you, so I came to ask," Nicole's

secretary replied as she was holding the letter.

"Bring it over," Nicole said as she beckoned her forward.

Nicole quickly snatched the mysterious letter and tore it open. Within the envelope was a piece of

paper with pasted letter fonts derived from newspaper cutouts.

Nicole narrowed her eyes as she read the contents of the letter. 'Who sent this?'

"Do you have any idea who might've sent this to you?" Nicole's secretary asked when she noted the

solemn look on her employer's face.

"It's nothing. You may leave. Please get Patricia over here," Nicole ordered as she dismissed her

secretary and stashed the letter away.

Upon hearing the orders, Nicole's secretary quickly scrambled on her feet and rushed out of the office.

Patricia entered Nicole's office not long after. "Were you asking for me?"

Patricia was unsure of what had led Nicole to summon her into the office out of the blue. However, she

was aware of the fact that an anonymous letter had been delivered to the office.

Nicole stretched her hand, holding the envelope. "Take a look at this."

Patricia grabbed it and began to read its contents. "What, why are they threatening you?"

No shit." Nicole sneered as her expression darkened.
