Ch. 1251..1255: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 1251-1255

Chapter 1251

When Fiorella walked out of Johnston Group, she did not leave the place immediately. Instead, she went to the coffee place opposite and ordered a cup of coffee to chill.

She was waiting for Jared to come out and walk into her trap.

In the afternoon, Jared continued working after lunch. He did not rest at all.

Fiorella was comfortably having her tea time at the coffee place. She did not expect Jared to stay in there even during lunch break.

The customers in the coffee place had shifted from group to group.

Fiorella was the only one who continued sitting with her dessert and coffee.

Fiorella looked at the time, and it was already two in the afternoon. She was starting to be impatient. ‘Did I overthink it? Is Jared really out of town?’

Fiorella held her bag, walked out of the coffee place, and walked to her car.

At the same time, Jared had just finished working on the last document. He covered the pen, wore his coat, and walked out of the office.

He was worried that if he delayed for even a minute, he would bump into Fiorella at the office and be stalled by her again. So, he hurried to the parking lot.

Fiorella got into her car and took out her phone to search for Jared’s contact. She hesitated for a moment. Then she pressed the dial button.

Jared had just reached the parking lot when his phone suddenly rang. He took out his phone to check. ‘It’s Fiorella. Why is she calling again?’

He slipped his phone back into his pocket as he had no intention of answering the call. Then, he quickly walked to his car.

Fiorella was holding her phone while waiting for Jared’s voice to come through. All of a sudden, a familiar figure flashed across her eyes. She immediately looked over, ‘Isn’t that Jared?’

She decisively got down from the car and walked toward that person. She heard the ringtone too. So, she quickened her steps and watched that person get into the car. It so happened that it was Jared’s car too. ‘I knew it. He was around this whole time.’

After Jared entered the car, the phone stopped ringing. He started his car engine and was ready to leave. When he reversed his car and was about to drive forward, a figure suddenly appeared right in front of his car standing. Jared immediately stepped on the brake. ‘Why did this person suddenly appear?’

After taking a closer look, Jared gasped. ‘Isn’t that Fiorella? Didn’t she leave already? What is she doing here?’

At that moment, Jared’s mind was filled with questions. Fiorella slowly walked toward the passenger seat. ‘It really is Jared.’ Then, she pulled the car door open and sat in the car.

“Mr. Jared, what are you doing here? Aren’t you out of town?” Fiorella smirked and looked at Jared.

‘Gotcha! Thanks to that uncovered pen and me for not driving off earlier. Otherwise, I would’ve missed you.’

Jared looked at Fiorella politely, but deep down inside, he was wondering how he should answer her question.

“How did you know that I was out of town?’ Jared did not reply to her but threw another question.

“Didn’t your assistant tell you that I went to the office and looked for you?” Fiorella did not answer his question too and replied with another question.

Jared furrowed his eyebrows a little. Then, he turned to Fiorella, looking like he had a sudden realization, “I think she did mention roughly, but I was busy at that time, so I did not think much about it. After that, I forgot about it.”

“Such a big company, and yet you have to take care of everything on your own. You seem to have a hard time, Jared. Your employees are really useless.”

Fiorella did not expose him. The only thing that mattered to her was finding him. As for him lying, she felt that there was no need for him to admit it. It was not important.

Chapter 1252

“Ms. Fiorella, is there anything you want to tell me?” Jared made a smart move by using his assistant as an excuse. It was only then that he managed to escape Fiorella’s question.

“Mr. Jared, I don’t think this is a suitable place to discuss things. Let’s go to my clubhouse.”

“Your clubhouse is too far from here. Let’s go to a nearby cafe. I know of a good cafe.” The nightmare Jared experienced at Fiorella’s clubhouse the previous time was still fresh in his mind. He did not want to step foot in that place again. Furthermore, Castor would not be there with him. It would be a challenge for Jared to handle Fiorella.

“I’ve been sitting at the cafe the whole day. Why not let’s go to a restaurant nearby?” Fiorella had just come out from the cafe. Even her breath was filled with the smell of coffee. She could not drink any more coffee.

“That’s fine.” As long as they were not going to her clubhouse and it was a place with more people, Jared was fine with going anywhere.

“How about the Blue Whale Restaurant?” Fiorella raised her eyebrows and asked Jared.

Hearing the name “Blue Whale Restaurant,” Jared glanced at Fiorella. ‘She knows about this restaurant too. But that’s nothing extraordinary since it’s just a restaurant. It’s normal for her to know about such a place as someone who likes to hang out. There isn’t a place of which she doesn’t know.’

“Ms. Fiorella, do you frequent that restaurant?” Jared asked the question casually.

“No. I recently heard that the food there is pretty good. Since I have the chance to eat with you, I thought we could try it out.”

Fiorella smiled widely at Jared.

After she bumped into Nicole in the elevator lobby the last time, Fiorella did a background check on Nicole’s recent movement. She found out that Nicole frequented the Blue Whale Restaurant with Jared. She took advantage of Nicole’s absence and tried to replace her to dine at the restaurant with Jared.

“Alright.” Jared thought, ‘So, she has no clue about the Blue Whale Restaurant. What is she actually planning to do this time around?’

Jared started the car engine and drove out of the parking lot toward the Blue Whale Restaurant.

In the car, Fiorella would look at Jared from time to time. She did not know what to chat with him about. So, she decided to ask about the things he had done the past few days when he had been away.

“Mr. Jared, I haven’t seen you for days. What have you been up to?” Fiorella stared at his handsome face and asked.

“I’ve been busy with the problematic projects which Henry left behind.” Jared did not try to hide. Instead, he simply replied in a sentence. After all, it was not something embarrassing for people to know of.

At the mention of Henry, Fiorella could not help but rant, “Damn it, this Henry Johnston. He actually dared to run away after doing terrible things. Such a person deserves to die.

“Mr. Jared, it has been quite a while. Is there any news about Henry yet?” Fiorella looked at Jared and asked. She had no purpose behind the question. It was just purely her curiosity.

“I heard that he’s abroad. I’m not sure about the specific place.” Jared did not tell her the truth. To avoid anyone leaking the news, it would be best if people did not know about Henry’s whereabouts. Otherwise, it would be detrimental to Jared’s plan.

“Henry really knows how to hide. I cant believe there isn’t any news about him. Could something bad have happened to him?” Fiorella suddenly covered her mouth and made a wild guess.

“I don’t think so. Maybe he’s just hiding in a hidden zone. So, it wouldn’t be easy to find him, but that doesn’t mean that he won’t be found forever.” Jared looked in front firmly.

“Yeah, after some time has passed, he won’t be able to hide anymore. I’m sure he’ll be exposed one day.” Fiorella spoke in an angry tone.

While the two were chatting in the car, Jared had already driven them to the entrance of the Blue Whale Restaurant. He parked his car and walked up while Fiorella followed him.

The manager noticed Jared and hurried over to welcome him. “Mr. Jared, do you want the usual spot?”

“It’s fine. Just give me a quiet spot.” Jared simply requested.

Fiorella observed the manager’s look. She could tell that Jared frequented the place and had a designated spot. However, Jared was not willing to bring her to that table, and she could not force him. Therefore, she could only follow Jared’s arrangement.

Chapter 1253

“This way, please.” The manager got what Jared meant and guided him and Fiorella to a relatively good spot at the restaurant.

The manager was unsure why Jared did not sit at his usual spot, thus helping him to another seat instead. The scenery at the new seat was not as good as the place Jared and Nicole often frequent at.

“Mr. Johnston, please take a look at our menu.” The manager handed the menu to him.

“Ladies first. Ms. Fisher, you can order first.” Jared signaled the manager to hand the menu to Fiorella. The manager immediately handed the menu to Fiorella and said respectfully, “Ms. Fisher, please take a look at our menu.”

“Okay.’ Fiorella looked up at the manager, then took the menu and glanced at Jared. “Since you insisted, I’ll order first.”

Jared looked at her and nodded. Fiorella opened the menu and scanned it while the manager waited for her to order. She flipped the menu to the last page but did not order. The manager watched Fiorella fidgeting around, assuming she was conflicted about what to order, so he asked, “Ms.

Fisher, do you need me to have some recommendations for you?”

“Yeah. You can recommend to me what Mr. Johnston would usually order.” Fiorella placed the menu down and looked at the manager. The manager’s smiling expression froze for a moment, and he glanced at Jared.

Jared instantly knew what Fiorella meant. He looked at the manager and said, “It’s normal for Ms. Fisher not to know what to order for the first time. Ordering the same dish as I am, is not wrong either. We’ll take two, and also my wine.”

The manager let out a huge sigh of relief when Jared understood the situation he was in and said, ‘Yes. I will prepare it right away.”

The manager was scolded by Jared before for not serving his meal in time. He now felt the need to perfect his service in catering Jared. He scurried to the back kitchen and gave out instructions to the chef.

“Mr. Johnston ordered two of the same dishes today. Prioritize their dish.”

“Yes.”

This is Mr. Johnston’s wine. Go and serve it.“ The manager did not want things to be made difficult by Fiorella, so he sent a server over.

The waiter cautiously walked over to their table with the red wine in hand. Fiorella noticed the manager was not attending to them. Instead, it was a waiter. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. ‘It seems that the manager was intimidated by me. I probably must be the first person ever to want the same meal as Jared,’ she thought.

The manager had been keeping a close eye at Fiorella’s direction from the front desk. He was puzzled when he noticed that the waiter had returned without doing anything.

The manager thought, ‘She didn’t make things difficult for him. Did I do something wrong, or have I analyzed the situation wrongly?’

“Ms. Fisher, what do you think of the ambiance here?” Jared chatted with her casually.

“The ambiance here is quite nice, but it doesn’t seem like a great seat.” Fiorella looked at Jared pointedly. Jared knew what she meant. However, he looked into her eyes and did not answer.

Chapter 1254

Fiorella noticed that Jared did not speak. She felt uncomfortable trying to keep the conversation going.

‘I don’t like going to places where other people have been; she wondered if Jared had brought other people to the seats they were sitting at.

“Mr. Johnston, have you ever been to the office after returning from your business trip?” Fiorella looked into his eyes and asked. Jared also looked into her eyes and said, “No.”

The corners of Fiorella’s lips curled slightly, and she continued, “There are some things you may not have been aware of yet.” She looked at him pretending to be mysterious, which aroused his curiosity.

“What’s wrong?” Jared was curious when he heard what she had said. Tve dedicated most of my time being at the company. What else possible could I not be aware of?’

Just as Fiorella was about to speak, the server came over to serve them their meal.

“Mr. Johnston, your meal is served. Please enjoy.” The server then left respectfully. Jared raised his wine glass and looked at Fiorella, “Ms. Fisher, this is fine wine. Take a sip and try it.” She picked up her wine glass and slowly twirled it, then took a sip and praised, “Mr. Johnston’s favorite wine is really good. Can you give me a few bottles?”

“As long as you like it, I’ll get someone to send you a box later,” Jared said generously.

“Don’t bother. It will be better if I go and retrieve the wine you have gifted me from you personally. Thank you, Mr. Johnston,” Fiorella toasted to him with a smile in her eyes.

“What did you mention just earlier about the thing I didn’t know about?” Jared continued to ask. Fiorella placed down her wine glass and smiled slightly. Instead of telling him directly, she slowly picked up a

knife and fork to cut her steak. “Do you know that Ms. Riddle has left?”

‘How did she know that Nicole had left? Was she following Nicole?’ Jared looked at Fiorella calmly while thinking.

“I know,” Jared said. Fiorella was not surprised, knowing that Nicole could have said her goodbyes to him the same day.

“But there was someone who got onto the same flight as her. Did you know that?” Fiorella looked into Jared’s eyes carefully. His eyes flashed with seriousness when he heard her words and asked, “You mean someone is following her?”

“That’s right,” Fiorella said calmly.

“Why are you telling me this?” Jared could not understand Fiorella’s intentions. ‘She hated Nicole so much. If Nicole was murdered, she would be over the moon, so why is she telling me all this?’

“Although I don’t like Nicole, and I don’t want anything to happen to her since you like her so much. I don’t want to see you being sad.” Fiorella stabbed a piece of steak and chewed it in her mouth.

Jared looked like he could not believe her words, so she added, “You can completely believe me on this matter. I could never lie to you.”

Jared was still staring into her eyes, seeking confirmation for a long time while he cut a piece of steak. “Of course, I believe Ms. Fisher’s words.

However, there are so many people in the same fight. Why do you think that the person is trailing Nicole?”

“My people are also trailing Nicole. They saw with their own eyes that the person followed from Martin’s factory all the way to the airport and

boarded the plane Nicole went on. Mr. Johnston, do you think this is all just a coincidence?’ Fiorella raised her eyebrow and looked at him.

“Forget it. You can be the judge of it yourself. I’m just here to remind you that.” Fiorella picked up her wine glass and took a sip. Jared stared at Fiorella the entire time; he had already lost the appetite to eat his steak. He wrecked his brain, thinking about who it could be that was trying to get Nicole’s attention.

Chapter 1255

“Mr. Johnston, what are you thinking about? Are you thinking of who it might be that is trailing Nicole?” Fiorella asked while looking at Jared’s dazed expression.

’How did you know, Ms. Fisher?” Jared asked after being brought into reality by Fiorella’s question.

’I don’t but what I know is that Nicole had gone to Martin’s factory recently. Do you think this might be related to one another, Mr. Johnston?” Fiorella did not know why but she felt like it was related to one another.

Jared heard Fiorella’s words and was brought into realization and said, ’ Thank you Ms. Fisher for telling me this. Today’s meal is on me. I have other things to do now, so I’ll be off.”

“Mr. Johnston, I’ll consider this as you owing me a favor?” Fiorella did not stop him from leaving, instead looking at the direction Jared was in.

Jared stopped in his tracks, and squinted at her and said, “Okay.” He strode out of the Blue Whale Restaurant, into his car and drove away. Meanwhile, Fiorella savored her food and wine which she did not get to finish the last time. She could not care less about whether Nicole was being followed or not. She only knew that Jared would be concerned about Nicole, and she would have the upper hand in this situation.

‘I must be very smart, letting him know about Nicole being followed. Now, he owes me a favor. He would ask me for things and won’t easily reject me anymore in the future,’ she thought.

Jared dialed Martin’s number while driving, “Are you at the factory?”

“Yeah.”

’Okay, I’ll be there.” After a simple exchange of words, Jared hung up the phone, stepped on the accelerator, and drove toward the factory.

When Jared arrived at Martin’s factory, he did not bother to check the status of the rebuilding. He made a beeline to Martin.

“Mr. Johnston, why are you in such a hurry? We can talk in my office,’

Martin said when he saw Jared’s expression.

’Okay.”

“What did you say? Someone from the factory had followed Nicole and boarded the same flight?’ Martin’s eyes widened in shock after hearing the news. “Is this news accurate?”

‘It should be accurate. I came here to ask you, have any of those you have fired met others?” Jared looked at Martin and asked.

“I haven’t heard any news about them contacting the others yet,” Martin replied. Jared fell silent when he heard him.

“Have there been any suspicious situations here in the factory recently?” Jared suddenly asked again.

’No. Nothing has happened here in the factory since that person was fired.” Martin shook his head.

‘Could it be that the person’s target has shifted to Nicole? It shouldn’t be… No matter from what perspective it is being analyzed, it is targeting Martin and the factory. It’s impossible to have a reason to target Nicole,’ Jared could not stop guessing in his mind mentally.

‘Mr. Johnston, what’s the situation there like now? Is Nicole safe?” Martin looked at Jared with concern for Nicole in his eyes. Jared had already called Nicole several times on his way to the factory but to no

avail. He wanted to know what was going on with Nicole.

“I can’t get in touch with her, and I don’t know what’s going on with her,” Jared said with a hint of disappointment in his voice.

‘Can’t get in touch with her? How can this be?” Martin immediately became anxious when he heard it and thought, ‘How can Jared not be able to get in touch with Nicole? Could it be something that had happened to her?’
