My Wife Act Differently Behind Me
Chapter 3002

Chapter 3002

Martin and Ellar were startled by Nicole's suddent appearance. Cindy, holding a tray, was so surprised that she dropped it, the noise echoing in the room.

Collecting himself, Ellar quickly covered his arm with a sleeve and attempted to sound composed, "Nicole, what's up?"

Nicole looked straight at Ellar's arm. "What happened to your arm?" she asked.

"I got a little hurt. Martin's helping me out," Ellar said, trying to play down the pain, though his teeth were clenched.

Nicole raised an eyebrow skeptically, glancing at Ellar. "Why does Martin need to personally handle a minor injury of yours?"

Trying to change the subject, Ellar said, "Oh, it's just a small thing... I was also checking on Patricia's condition. Are you here to talk about treatment options with Martin? I won't bother you then; I'll go." Without saying anything, Nicole observed Ellar as he walked away. When Ellar approached, Nicole suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist, pulling up his sleeve to reveal the injury.

"Anything else you want to share?" Nicole's voice now carried an unsettling calmness.

She had been angry, but seeing the wound on Ellar's arm, she understood his intention and felt a pang of sympathy.

Realizing he couldn't hide it any longer, Ellar hung his head and said softly, "Nicole, I just wanted to help Patricia recover faster."

"We all want her to get better, but this method... What if something happens to you? How would we cope, and what about Patricia?" Nicole expressed her frustration and concern.

"It won't come to that. You've saved Martin from poisoning before, and we've been using your methods for detoxification. Look, I'm fine, apart from some pain," Ellar said, attempting to reassure her, but deep down, he knew Patricia's well-being was the top priority, and he was willing to overlook everything else for her sake.

Martin joined the conversation, his voice tinged with guilt." This isn't solely his fault; I agreed to it as well."

Ellar quickly intervened, "No, it was me who pushed him to help. Don't blame him. He's been taking care of me. I'm really okay." He didn't want Martin to be scolded because of his actions. Nicole sighed, a hint of frustration in her voice, "Why keep it a secret from me?"

She thought to herself that they could have consulted her, maybe finding a better solution.

Ellar shook his head, "You would have never let me do this if

I told you. I had to keep it a secret."

Nicole, clearly upset, wanted to lash out. Both Patricia and Ellar meant a lot to her.

Ellar closed his eyes and said, 'Hit me if you want, just don't be angry.'

Nicole glared at him, "Sit down now."

Once Ellar sat, Nicole turned to Martin. "Explain the situation to me in detail."

"Sure," Martin said. "At first, his symptoms matched mine, but they got better with some tweaks. The poison hasn't entirely gone away, though..."

Nicole's face turned serious as she listened to Martin. "Did you write down everything?"

Cindy gave Nicole a notebook. "Got it right here."

"I'll go through this later," Nicole said, taking the notebook. She turned to Ellar, "Need a lift home?"

Ellar declined, shaking his head, "No need, I'll rest here a bit longer."

Recognizing Ellar's worry about his parents noticing his condition, Nicole assented, "Alright then."

"I'll swing by tomorrow," Nicole informed Martin, heading out with Jared. Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Ellar sighed in relief," That was scary." Martin, equally relieved, shook his head, "Not just you, I was scared too."
