Ch. 1026..1030: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 1026-1030

Chapter 1026

The following day, at the dining table

"You really don't want me to go with you guys?" Jared asked again.

"No.Really.It is just a medical check-up."

"Well, then I will eat up and go back to the office first."

Jared kissed Nicole in front of everyone, then said goodbye to Mrs.Wallace Sr.and went back to the office.

"Nicole, Mr.Johnston, and you are so sweet.I feel like a third wheel here." Tia looked at Nicole enviously.

"Not at all.Come on, eat."

Nicole sheepishly fetched an enormous chunk of food to Tia's dish, and Tia giggled at her shyness.

After the meal, Nicole drove Mrs.Wallace Sr.and Tia to the hospital.

Martin was returning to pick up his things when he bumped into Nicole at the hospital entrance.

"Are you here to accompany your grandma for her medical check- up?"

Martin saw the old lady beside Nicole and knew without guessing that it must be her grandmother.

"Yes, what are you doing here?" Nicole asked, looking at Martin, who was in a hurry.

"I'm going to pick up something from the lab.Hi Grandma." Martin said hello to Mrs.Wallace Sr.

"Grandma, this is my friend." Nicole introduced Martin to Mrs.Wallace Sr.

"Nicole, it is inconvenient for you to stand in line with your grandma.How about this: I will arrange it for you?" Martin looked at Nicole.

"It is alright.There is Tia to help."

Nicole glanced over at Tia.

"Well, I will go upstairs first, then.Feel free to call me if you need help."

Martin smiled warmly and then headed upstairs.

Tia looked at Martin as he left, almost infatuated.

"Nicole, your friend is so handsome."

"Is he your type?" Nicole teased her.

"Don't make fun of me."

Tia stood on the other side of Mrs.Wallace Sr.and stole a glance at Martin, who was about to walk into the elevator.

Nicole snickered and looked over at Mrs.Wallace Sr.

"Grandma, let's go sit in the lounge area."

"Tia, go get in line and register," Nicole instructed.

"Okay."

Nicole accompanied Mrs.Wallace Sr.as she sat in a chair and waited.

Martin walked toward the lab, his mind still thinking about Nicole and Mrs.Wallace Sr.in the lobby.He took out his cell phone and made a call.

"There is a lady named Nicole Riddle in the lobby on the first floor, wearing a set of blue clothes.She is my VIP guest, bringing an old lady to the medical check-up today.Help arrange it so that she doesn't have to wait too long."

"Okay, Dr.Wyance."

In the lobby, Nicole was chatting with Mrs.Wallace Sr.when a head nurse approached and greeted Nicole politely.

"Hello, are you Ms.Riddle?"

"Tam.What can I do for you?"

Nicole's eyes sized her up cautiously.

"Dr.Wyance has told us about it.Please follow me."

The head nurse made a gesture of invitation.

"What is the full name of the Dr.Wyance you speak of?" Nicole asked out of professional habits.

"Martin Wyance."

"Okay."

Nicole helped Mrs.Wallace Sr.off with the head nurse.

"Tia, there's no need to stand in line anymore,"Nicole called Tia.

The three of them followed the head nurse to a quiet examination room, and the head nurse looked at Nicole.

"Miss Riddle, please just wait here while I take your grandma in for her check-up."

"Can I go in with her?"

Nicole was afraid that Mrs.Wallace Sr.would not cooperate.

Chapter 1027

"Sure."

"Thank you.Grandma, I will go in with you.Tia, you wait here."

Nicole looked back at Tia.

"Okay, call me if you need anything,"Tia said.

"I will."

Nicole helped Mrs.Wallace Sr.and followed the head nurse into the examination room.Mrs.Wallace Sr.was clearly uncomfortable when faced with the doctor and the instrument, but she was more at ease with Nicole's presence.

"Relax, Grandma.It will make it easier for the doctor to examine you,"Nicole said.

Mrs.Wallace Sr.looked at Nicole and nodded.Soon after some tests were done, the head nurse came over to Nicole.

"Miss Riddle, could you please take Grandma to the bed of the instrument and come out?"

"Okay."

About two hours later, after all the tests were done, Nicole accompanied Mrs.Wallace Sr.to the doctor's office.

"What is the state of my grandma's health, doctor?"

"She is in very good health, much better than people of his age.Nowadays, there are few old people in such a healthy physical state.Keep it up, Mrs.Wallace"the doctor said.

"I exercise every day."иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σм Mrs.Wallace Sr.smiled as she spoke to the doctor.

"Fantastic."

"Thank you, doctor.We will leave then.Grandma, we can go back now."

Nicole took Mrs.Wallace Sr.and Tia with her and left the hospital.

On the way home, Mrs.Wallace Sr.asked Nicole, "I heard from the nurse that it was Dr.Wyance who arranged the check-up for us.

When you have time, invite Dr.Wyance to come to the house."

"Grandma, it is alright.We are good friends.We know each other very well."

"Since you two know each other well, that is all the more reason to invite him to our house."

"Okay, I will invite him some day."Nicole could only go along with her.

After several days of not receiving funds from Jared, Henry was restless.He picked up the phone to call Mr.Johnston Sr.

"Dad, has Jared been to your place lately?"

Henry tried to get information out of Mr.Johnston Sr.

"Yeah.What's up?"

"Did Jared say when he was going to inject capital into the branch? "

That was the thing Henry cared most about.

"I mentioned it to Jared.He hasn't transferred you the money yet?"

"Not yet.If he doesn't transfer funds, I won't be able to hold this up."

Henry sounded anxious.

"Maybe he has his plans.You'd better carry out what he said.The market is unstable now.You be careful."

"I know."

Henry heard and understood what Mr.Johnston Sr.meant and hung up the phone in frustration.

"It seems your grandpa is still favoring Jared.We can't count on him.We have to figure it out ourselves."

Henry looked at Castor and Murphy.

"Dad, what do we do?" Castor asked Henry, squinting.

"You two go outside and try to get some investment, see if anyone is willing to invest in us.As long as people are willing to invest, we will get through this difficult time."

Henry looked at them seriously, his eyes full of determination.

"Okay, we will get on it right away."

Martin was setting up the production line in the factory when Claus walked up to him.

"Mr.Wyance, are you installing the production line?"

"Yes, you are?"

 

Chapter 1028

"My name is Claus, Mr.Johnston's assistant."

"Hello."

"This is a list of the locations Mr.Johnston has asked me to identify.Please choose one of them as the new company's address."

Claus handed the list to Martin.Martin looked at it for a long while and finally chose the one near Jared's office.

"Let's go with this one."

"Okay.I will contact you when it is ready.One more thing; the launch event is ready.You are to attend and speak at the launch event tomorrow morning."

"Just myself? What about Mr.Johnston?" Martin asked.

"The launch event is mainly about introducing a product, so Mr.Johnston won't be there.If there is nothing else, I will excuse myself," Claus said and left.

"Mr.Wyance, come here and take a look."

An engineer called out.Martin immediately went over.

"This spot must be level.I will tell you again; all assembly lines must be level, do you understand?"

"Got it."

"Martin, you do things pretty quick here."

Nicole's voice rang out.Martin turned around and looked at Nicole with surprise.

"How did you find this place?"

"It is easy to find.Are you putting the assembly line together?" Nicole looked inside.

"Yes, what do you want to see me about?"

Martin asked.

"Do you have time at noon? My grandma wants to invite you to lunch,"Nicole said.

"Your grandma wants to invite me to lunch? Why?" Martin looked even more surprised.

"We knew it was you who helped arrange the medical check-up that day.So grandma wants to thank you in person."

"No trouble at all."

Martin thought it was about something special at first.

"Well, it is up to you whether you go or not, but I have brought the message, anyway.Can I come inside for a tour?"

Nicole was curious about how The Beacon was produced.

"Yes, I will take you inside.They are installing it now, and when all this equipment is installed, it will be ready for a trial run." иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σм Martin introduced those production lines to Nicole.

"It looks like I'm going to have to call you Mr.Wyance, as you will be the CEO of the company."

Nicole teased him.

"Don't call me that.I'm not used to it."

Martin still could not get used to being called Mr.Wyance.

After all, he had been called Dr.Wyance for years.

"It is okay.You will get used to it after a while."

Nicole patted him on the shoulder.

"Claus came over just now, informing me of the launch event of The Beacon tomorrow morning.Do you know about it?"

Martin looked at Nicole happily.

"The launch of The Beacon? No one told me about it." Nicole frowned.

"It is okay.I will tell you now.Are you going to be there tomorrow? " Martin wished Nicole could be there.

"I can be there, but I won't be speaking on stage."

"I'd be happy if you were there."

Martin looked at Nicole happily.

Being able to witness the launch of The Beacon with Nicole in front of the press was something he was looking forward to.

"So, how long will you be busy here?"

Nicole glanced at the workers, who were busy setting things up.

"Your grandma is waiting for me to go over, isn't she?"

Martin looked at her.

"Then I will go over and explain a few things to them, and then I will go with you."

"Okay, I will wait for you here."

Chapter 1029

Martin walked up to the installation engineer and talked with him as he gestured.

After a few moments, the engineer nodded, and Martin left them and went to Nicole.

"Let's go," he said.

Nicole drove Martin toward the sea-view villa.

After about forty minutes, the car pulled up in the villa's courtyard.

"It is so beautiful here."

Martin exclaimed, looking at the beach.

"How long has it been since you have been to the beach? What is with the big reaction?"

Nicole looked at him with surprise.

"It has been so long that I don't even remember."

Martin laughed at himself.

"If you still have time after dinner, we will walk with you to the beach."

Nicole led Martin into the house.

"We? There are others?"

Martin looked at Nicole with puzzlement.

"Tia, who went to the hospital with me that day.Does that ring a bell?"

Nicole gave him a look.

"Oh, I remember her, but I didn't look at her closely that day," Martin recalled.

"It is okay.You can take a good look later." Nicole teased him.

"Okay, but what do you mean?"

Martin almost got tricked by Nicole.

Nicole smiled and walked over to Mrs.Wallace Sr.

"Grandma, look who I brought back for you."

Mrs.Wallace Sr.turned to Martin.

"Is this Dr.Wyance from the other day?"

"It is me.I heard you had good health." иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σм Martin stepped forward and spoke in a friendly voice.

"Please have a seat."

Mrs.Wallace Sr.said with courtesy.

"Dr.Wyance, thank you for the other day."

"Don't mention it, Mrs.Wallace Sr.Nicole and I are good friends, and that was what I should do."

Martin was gentle, and Mrs.Wallace Sr.liked him.

"Dr.Wyance, have some water."

Tia brought a glass of water to Martin.

"Thank you."

"Dr.Wyance, how is your work?"

Mrs.Wallace Sr.did not know what to talk about, so she asked about his work.

"I have been busy installing equipment lately, spending most of my time at the factory,"

Martin told the story of what he had been doing as if he were reporting to his grandmother.

"Be safe when you are running back and forth." Mrs.Wallace Sr.said with concern.

"It is safe, Mrs.Wallace Sr.Don't worry," Martin explained.

"Martin, please don't mind.My grandma has always been down- home and hospitable." Nicole explained for fear that Martin would be offended.

"It is okay.I like her down-home and hospitable." Martin did not feel offended but kind.

"Lunch is ready."

Tia came over.

"Dr.Wyance, let's go over there."

Mrs.Wallace Sr.walked toward the dining room.

At the table, she was very cordial.

"Dr.Wyance, please make yourself at home and eat all you can.These are all prepared for you."

"Martin, you are so lucky.I have never had some of these dishes before."

Nicole shot him a jealous look.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Mrs.Wallace Sr.This is the most scrumptious meal I have had in a long time."

Martin looked at the table full of food and felt like it was New Year's Eve.

"Help yourself."

Nicole did not treat him as an outsider and ate by herself.

After the meal, Nicole and Martin spent some time chatting with Mrs.Wallace Sr.in the living room.

Tia came over from the dining room with fruit.

"Grandma, why don't we take you for a walk on the beach?" Nicole looked at Mrs.Wallace Sr.

"I'm not going.You guys can go by yourselves if you like."

"Then you stay here and watch TV while we go for a walk on the beach."

Nicole glanced at Martin and then brought Tia to the beach.

"Martin, what does it feel like to step on the beach?" Nicole looked at him.

Chapter 1030

"It is along-lost feeling, hot and comfortable."

Martin looked out to the sea, feeling the sea breeze.It had been a really long time since he had taken a walk on the beach, as the busyness of work was swallowing him up.

"Nicole, thank you for bringing me here."

Martin stepped onto the beach, completely at ease.Blue sky and white clouds made him forget all his worries, with only the sound of the sea in his ears at this moment.

"The sea is a natural therapist.No matter if you are happy or not, you can talk to it."

Nicole raised her hands to the sea.

"Dr.Wyance, what do you usually like to do?" Tia looked at Martin with a smile on her face.

"I like to experiment." Martin could not think of any other hobbies he had.

"Experiment?"

Tia did not understand what he meant and looked at him in bafflement.

"Yes, I made the device that Nicole is using now.I have been working on that for a while.Things get a bit easier now."

Martin looked at her and told her what he had done.

"Dr.Wyance, you are amazing! J thought you were just a regular doctor."

Tia did not expect that Martin could develop devices, and her feelings for him increased dramatically.

"I'm not as amazing as you say.It is my hobby."

Martin and Tia had a pleasant conversation.

Nicole just quietly admired the scenery and did not interrupt to give them enough space.

The two talked for a long while before they thought of Nicole.Tia asked, "Why are you so quiet, Nicole?"

"I'm thinking about something."

Nicole could only find a random excuse.

"Thinking about what?"

Martin looked at Nicole curiously.

"Nothing.Just some trivial things abroad.You guys keep talking."

Nicole smiled as she looked at them both.

Just then, Martin's phone rang.He picked it up, talked to the caller for just a few words, and hung up.

"Nicole, Tia, there is something at the factory that I need to attend to."' Martin looked at them.

"I will give you a lift, then.It is difficult to get a taxi here."

Nicole looked at him.

"Thank you."

Meanwhile, Henry was listening to Castor's report in his office.

"Dad, I have visited many companies.None of them are willing to invest in us."

Castor stood in front of Henry's desk to report his work in the past few days.

SNAP!

Henry forced his hand on his desk angrily.

"Didn't these people want to invest in Johnston Group before this? How come all of a sudden they change their minds?"

"I don't know.The fund we siphoned will not be back for a while, and the loan is coming due soon.What should we do?"

Castor was pacing back and forth.

"Alas!"

Henry sighed helplessly, angry with Jared.

"It must be Jared behind this.Since he and Dad treat me like this, I'm not going to play nice anymore." иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмHenry's eyes looked scarlet, and his gaze was ruthless.

"Dad, did you think of a way?"

"Come over here," Henry whispered something in Castor's ear, and his pupils kept dilating.

"Dad, isn't this too much?" Castor frowned.

"What do you know? A real man will do whatever it takes to get what he wants."

In the evening, inside the villa, Jared was having dinner with Nicole when he suddenly received a call from Alfred, the butler.

"Mr.Johnston Sr.has met with a car accident," Alfred said.

"What?"

Jared was in shock.

"In which hospital? I will be right over."

Jared put down his cutlery and got up, ready to go.

"Jared, what's wrong?"

Nicole had never seen him so nervous before.
