My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2723

Nicole looked up at Jared, confused. "What do you mean when you say leave it to them?"

"Yeah, it could be a trap, so it'll be much safer to let them handle it," Jared clarified. 'If this is just a

conspiracy

targeted at Nicole, Charlie and Patricia can deal with it. But if Ellar really is in danger, I won't sit idly by

and let it happen.'

Nicole nodded at Jared's explanation. "Okay, but Why don't you let Patricia handle it alone and get

Charlie to cover for you?"

'Charlie should be stationed near Jared, and in the event that someone tries to go after Jared, he would

be there in the nick of time to ensure Jared's safety. I think this is the easiest way to ensure that

everyone is protected and secured,' Nicole thought.

"That's fine by me too," Jared replied before summoning Max over to pass the orders down to Charlie.

Then, he darted a glance at his wristwatch. "Let's have lunch before you head back to the office.’

After happily agreeing to it, Nicole stayed for lunch with Jared.

Meanwhile, Max had just briefed Charlie and Patricia on their new tasks, to which they responded in

unison, "Yes, sir." Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

"You have to keep an eye on this fella. We don't know what they will do. You must be on the alert at all

times," Patricia warned Charlie.

Charlie then nodded and looked at Patricia. "You too."

"Okay, let's talk about how we can strategize this. It's way too obvious that they're trying to lure Nicole

into their trap by using our concern for Ellar against us all. I wonder if he'll bite..." said Max as he

thought, 'If Ellar is wise enough to realize that it's a trap, things will be much easier for us.'

"I'll inform Ellar about this," Patricia decided after a few seconds of silence. 'Ellar should be prepared

for this either way. He needs to protect himself and everyone else around him from imminent danger,'

"Can we trust this guy, Ellar?" asked Charlie with a hint of hesitation in his voice.

This prompted Patricia to ask, "Why did you ask? You know him?"

The three of them had only heard about Ellar, but none of them had personally dealt with him.

"No," Charlie whispered.

He was a little worried as he had a bad feeling about Ellar.

Patricia was dumbfounded after she had seen Charlie's reaction. 'Why is he acting like this if he doesn't

know Ellar personally?'

"Forget about it. I'm not going to elaborate on this,' Charlie added. "Remember to explain everything to

him clearly." 'They better not blame me if things go awry,' Charlie muttered to himself.

"Yeah, I know what to do. I'll go now," Patricia replied, before getting up and leaving.

With a look of confusion on his face, Max asked Charlie," What's the matter with you?" he thought,

'Jesus, this guy is like a brick wall. I can't tell what he is thinking at all, but what he just did was weird.'

"Nothing's the matter. The one using Ms. Riddle's soft spot for her family against her is very despicable.

I won't let them get away with it so easily," Charlie grumbled.

'I will capture them and put them behind bars once and for all. Gosh, they have been buzzing around

like the pesky flies they are,' Charlie fumed.

With a solemn look on his face, Max agreed, "Yeah, we better not let them get away with it this time

around."

'I will not let this guy slip away again,' Charlie promised.

When lunch time came around, Jared and Nicole were already at the restaurant ordering their food.

"I haven't been here in such a long time." Nicole sighed as she looked around the restaurant.

'Everything seems to be the same as it used to be, but looking at it now brings about a sense of

nostalgia,' she thought as her eyes scanned the interior of the place.

"Nicole! Mr. Johnston!" someone suddenly called out to them.
