We Are Not Getting Remarried: Show Yourself Out

Chapter 775

wordlessly, not knowing what to say. After all, she knew better than anyone else how resilient her daughter was.Nicole’s ability to overcome obstacles calmly was why the entire family was relieved to hand over the family business to her. However, Gareth was the only exception to her. He was the only person who could break through her defenses and make her emotional.No one else in the world could make her sob. Sharon held her hand and took the phone away from her. “Stop reading. You know the situation better than anyone else.”The toxic comment section might agitate her even more.Nicole sat stonily on the couch, not responding to her mother.Though she controlled her tears, she still felt a dull ache in her heart. No matter how much she was in denial, she saw Gareth taking the initiative to wrap his arms around Elisa as they left.

Everyone was watching them at that moment. He should publicly display his affection for her to fulfill a woman’s pride. However, he didn’t do that at all. It’s obvious that he’s just putting on a show.”Nicole blinked, but she remained silent.Then, Sharon’s phone received a notification. She shot a glance at it before passing it to Nicole.“Here, look at this.”Nicole took
