My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2834

"The entire ordeal with Harvey has finally come to an end. We should be able to live in peace for now," Nicole sighed.

At the very least, Harvey would no longer be among the list of people trying to make life difficult for her.

Jared looked at her and gave her a reassuring smile. "Let's eat. There's no need to worry about people who don't matter. It "You should go ahead too," Nicole smiled and reached over to feed Jared some of what was on her plate.

With a shared glance, the couple proceeded to enjoy their lunch joyfully and affectionately.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere was much darker in Harvey's office back at the headquarters of Ellison Group.

"Mr. Ellison, it's lunchtime. Are you really not eating?" his assistant whispered, attempting to persuade Harvey to have a bite.

"I'm not eating. Get out!" Harvey roared angrily, leaving the assistant with no choice but to leave.

The office fell silent again, and that was when Harvey leaned back against his chair, his grimace sour and terrifying.

He had never expected to end up like this. Right now, everything seemed to belong to him, yet not exactly so.

Thomas had ultimately refused to help him and top of that, had left him between a rock and a hard place.

He hated the idea of Nicole overseeing Ellison Group in the not so distant future. She was the woman he had always wanted to win over. But now, she was someone he could never attain. This was an outcome he could never think to bear.

The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became. Suddenly, Harvey felt his vision blur, and he fainted.

The assistant rushed in when he heard a loud thud emanating from Harvey's office. When he saw Harvey lying unconscious on the floor, he blanched and ran off to call for someone to take him to the hospital. In the afternoon, the sun was high and glaring.

After having lunch together, Jared brought Nicole back to Riddle Corporation.

The moment she stepped into her office, she noticed that Lulu had a look of frustration and confusion on her face.

"What do we do now? Sending someone over to take charge of Ellison Group doesn't seem appropriate," Lulu remarked.

Even if they did not assign someone to take the company over, someone would still need to step in and solve the issues at Ellison Group. The fact remained that there was work left to be done, and there was no escaping that.

Nicole frowned, understanding Lulu's concerns. After all, the issues plaguing Ellison Group had not been completely resolved yet, and the process of taking over all of its responsibilities after Nicole had signed the document would not occur without its fair share of misunderstandings and complications.

If they did not intervene, however, the crisis in the company would just snowball into something far less manageable.

After careful consideration, Nicole looked at Lulu and said," Lulu, you should go there in person."

"Me?!" Lulu asked, her voice of surprise going up by a few octaves.

"After thinking it through, I've decided that you're the only one who can make me feel most at ease," Nicole said, solemn and unsmiling. "If we leave someone else to do it, it's likely that overseeing the entire situation will be difficult."

Nicole could not go there herself, so she thought that assigning Lulu this momentous task was the most reasonable course of action she could take.

After all, Lulu had been handling all affairs concerning Ellison Group for as long as she could remember; she was more than capable of dealing with the situation. As such, Nicole felt most at ease with her taking on that task.

After biting her lip, Lulu nodded and said, "Alright."

Ultimately, she concluded that she was needed there. Regardless of what happened, they needed to take care of the financial crisis in Ellison Group first before making any further decisions.

"If you need help, you can bring a few of our staff members with you to help you out," Nicole instructed.

"Got it." Lulu sighed. "I now understand what you meant when you said you were worried about Harvey going insane."

If Harvey ended up crashing and burning, there would be nothing but more trouble for them.
