Ch. 131..135: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 131-135

Chapter 131

ms. Thompson wanted to stop mr. Kennedy, but it was too late, so she could only try to smoothen things out as she said, “It’s okay.

Nicole, you continue your chat with ms. Emerson, We’ll leave first!” As she said that, she dragged mr. Kennedy away. mr. Kennedy did not understand what was going on and wanted to speak.

He was immediately told to shut up by ms. Thompson. He was stunned.

When he noticed ms. Thompson’s expression, he recalled the matter with Jessy that he had sought ms. Thompson’s aid.

He quickly said, “ms. Thompson, Jessy was injured by Nicole, and now Nicole is acting like this.

Is it because she is nursing a grudge over the penalty you gave her?” mr. Kennedy played a scene out in his head, and the more he thought about it, the more possible it sounded. Although ms. Thompson did not tell him what had happened this morning, her non-response was the best response.

‘ms. Thompson must’ve settled the matter already.

Since it was just a small matter, maybe she thinks there’s no need to update me,’ he thought.

‘Otherwise, why would she suddenly call me this afternoon to stop ms. Emerson?’ ms. Thompson looked at his greasy, stupid face as she took a deep breath.

‘If it weren’t for you being mr. Anderson’s relative, why would I even bother with you!’ When she recalled what she went through because of Nicole, a glint of cold light appeared in her eyes.

“Mike, can you contact your uncle and ask what relationship Nicole has with mr. Ellison?” If mr. Ellison were to keep helping Nicole, and if Nicole were to stand by ms. Emerson like today, then it would be difficult for them to do anything. After all, the teaching funds approved by the school every year were controlled by her.

She was always stingy toward her subordinates.

It was only because mr. Kennedy was her right-hand man and had helped her a lot, plus he was also a relative of the school director, that she recommended him every year for the outstanding teacher award.

When he got the award, she would get a substantial amount in kickbacks too. But now, seeing that Nicole was only cheering ms. Emerson on, ms. Thompson felt a tinge of uneasiness in her heart, mr. Kennedy did not understand why ms. Thompson was so fearful of mr. Ellison’s relationship with Nicole.

However, when he recalled mr. Ellison deliberately allowed Nicole to pick between him and ms. Emerson when she started school here, it did shock him! “I’ll ask my uncle in a bit.

But he’s a busy man, and I have no idea if I can get him on the line,” said mr. Kennedy with an astonished tone as he wiped the sweat from his forehead. ms. Thompson nodded.

She knew that it was not easy for mr. Kennedy to get in touch with mr. Anderson, but this was something she needed to make sure for her to be able to rest assured. She secretly prayed that Nicole had nothing to do with mr. Ellison, or else her life in this school would not be as rosy as it was now. As she thought of that, ms. Thompson gave mr. Kennedy a glance.

“You better pray that Nicole is not related to mr. Ellison, or our lives in this school will be hell!” After saying her piece, ms. Thompson left, leaving only mr. Kennedy alone.

He immediately took his phone out and quickly called a number, It rang a dozen times before an impatient voice came from the other side.

“Didn’t I tell you not to call for no reason? mr. Anderson is busy!” mr. Kennedy smiled as he said, “Yes, yes, mr. Wyatt, I understand.

I just want to ask my uncle something.

It won’t take too long.” A rather dissatisfied response came from the other side.

“I’ll help you pass on the call, but whether mr. Anderson answers or not is not my call.” mr. Kennedy thanked mr. Wyatt, and a moment later, the phone was passed onto someone else, and a much more cordial voice came from the other side of the line.

“Ah, Mike, what’s the matter?” When mr. Kennedy heard the voice, he was excited beyond words.

“Uncle, you answered!” But he dared not waste too much time and immediately queried the matter ms. Thompson had asked. When he heard that Mike Kennedy called him for some inane questions, the cordialness in mr. Anderson’s voice disappeared as he said somewhat coldly, “Who is this Nicole Riddle? I’ve never heard of her.

Why would mr. Ellison get involved with such a nobody?” , mr. Kennedy immediately said, “Don’t be angry, uncle.

It was just that Nicole claimed that she had quite a relationship with mr. Ellison.

Since that is the case, I won’t bother you any longer.

Thank you, Uncle!” When mr. Anderson heard that, he directly hung up the call. mr. Kennedy did not dare to voice any complaints.

On the contrary, he could finally be at ease. “This Nicole is nothing but a country bumpkin with no background.

She must have used some underhanded means to get mr. Ellison’s contact details then.’ When he thought of this, he happily told ms. Thompson about it. ms. Thompson was in the office of the junior high school and was handing over the personal details of Austin and the others to mr. Louis.

When she heard the news, she was overjoyed.

‘It seems like Nicole has nothing but bluster and hot air, and she only has a normal relationship with mr. Ellison.

I have no need to worry about her at all.’ ms. Thompson then whispered a few words to mr. Kennedy again and then hung up the phone.

Her gaze at mr. Louis was full of disdain.

“mr. Louis, I’ll leave these ‘good students’ to you.

I hope you can use that set of questions of yours and get them into the top twenty, from the bottom

 

Chapter 132

Chapter 132 After ms. Thompson said that, without waiting for mr. Louis to even respond, she left with her heels clacking against the floor.

The sound was rather annoying. mr. Louis popped his head out from the sea of questions.

He smiled as he looked at her back.

Even after she had walked away, his expression remained the same; he smiled as he lowered his head. Meanwhile, mr. Anderson was attending a banquet.

The Anderson family could only be regarded as a bottom-ranking family in San Joto.

They could only get into a banquet of such level using the name of the director of the Royal Creek Institute.

Even so, after coming in, no one would pay them much attention. So, mr. Anderson was in a very embarrassing situation and took the call to prop himself up. He pretended to put down the phone solemnly and then immediately regretted it.

He had nothing to do anyway, and chatting with mr. Kennedy would have made him look a little busier. To his surprise, as soon as he put his phone done, a thick, attractive voice rang from behind him.

“Did you mention ‘Nicole Riddle’ in the call just now?” 1 mr. Anderson turned around and saw an elegant, handsome middle-aged man standing behind him.

There was a reserved demeanor about that man.

He curled his lips slightly at mr. Anderson, somehow giving out an imposing außa. mr. Anderson knew that all guests in this banquet were no ordinary people and were not someone that a minor family like his could afford to offend.

Even if he did not know who they were, he still needed to treat them carefully. “Did you say ‘Nicole Riddle,’ sir?” The middle-aged man nodded at him.

His voice was extremely crisp, his volume moderate.

It was enough to be audible yet not too loud.

“Yes, Nicole Riddle.

You seemed to have mentioned her?” mr. Anderson nodded, “Yes, it seems like she’s a student at the Royal Creek Institute.

However, I don’t know her.

It was my distant relative who asked some private matter about her.” A student at the Royal Creek Institute? The middle-aged man’s eyes lit up. ‘She has come to San Joto?’ As the middle-aged man thought of it, he was no longer in the mood to stay in the banquet anymore.

He gave mr. Anderson a respectful nod and then walked away quickly mr. Anderson looked at the man’s back in a daze.

Soon, four to five people appeared around him to clear the way.

Those people must have been hidden in the crowd.

Seeing this, mr. Anderson was surprised, and then someone gently patted him on the shoulder. When mr. Anderson turned around, he realized they were those dignitaries who had disdainfully ignored him

earlier.

All of them brought their wine glasses before him with smiles on their faces. mr. Anderson was somewhat flattered.

He had never experienced such treatment before.

Earlier on, he had been literally sidelined, and these people had not even deigned to spare him a glance. After exchanging some platitudes, one of the dignitaries pretended to be casually interested as he asked, “mr. Anderson, how did you get to know mr. Wyance?” ‘mr. Wyance?’ mr. Anderson looked at the person before him and was stunned.

When the few saw his reaction, they reminded him.

“mr. Wyance was the person who spoke to you earlier and then left in a hurry.” mr. Anderson recalled the middle-aged man earlier.

No wonder he felt that the man looked a little familiar.

The man turned out to be the relative of Sebastian Wyance, who was the province governor! Although San Joto was now promoted to direct governance, there was no mayor.

Instead, everything fell under the jurisdiction of the governor, and that meant that that man had a relationship with the chief executive of San Joto! When mr. Anderson thought of that person suddenly speaking to him, he was a little confused. And when he recalled that the man asked him about Nicole, mr. Anderson gulped.

‘Could it be that mr. Wyance holds this Nicole Riddle in high esteem that he came over to ask him about her?’ 1 mr. Anderson then felt that it was impossible, thinking that someone with high status like mr. Wyance would not be interested in a student. Looking at the great figures who could squash him with a flick of a finger now being so respectful toward him, mr. Anderson felt a little smug.

He then simply replied, “By some chance.” He did not make things clear, so those people dared not look down on him.

As a result, mr. Anderson participated in one of the happiest and most comfortable banquets of his life. At this moment, Nicole was still speaking to ms. Emerson.

She did not ask ms. Emerson why ms. Thompson and mr. Kennedy were looking for ms. Emerson.

Instead, she asked, “ms. Emerson, do you still have another copy of the workbook you gave me for the final push? I accidentally dirtied it.” ms. Emerson herself had expended much effort to get that book and shook her head as she heard that.

“I don’t have any more with me, but I think mr. Louis might still have one.

You can ask him for it.” Seeing Nicole was about to leave, ms. Emerson smiled.

“What are you doing? It’s almost class already.

Just go after class!” Nicole did not stop.

Instead, she walked in a different direction, heading to her class. After class, Nicole ran straight toward mr. Louis’s office.

When she arrived, mr. Louis, who had also just finished his class, was stunned when he saw her.

He quickly recovered as he smiled at her.

“Ah, Nicole, is there anything I can help with?” Nicole told him her purpose in meeting him.

Without any hesitation, he pulled out a set of exercises from a drawer.

“Take it.

But be careful not to dirty it.

I don’t have another new set with me.” Nicole nodded.

She would be more careful this time. As she took the set of exercises and was about to leave, Nicole suddenly recalled something as she asked mr. Louis.

“mr. Louis, are Austin and the others under you?”

Chapter 133

mr. Louis nodded and waved his hand.

“Don’t worry about it too much.

My class is not after grades.

As long as the students are happy, that’s fine by me.

I’ve interacted with Austin and the boys before.

They are not bad boys, just slightly led astray because of lack of supervision.

I have no issues with them under me.” When Nicole heard this, a thoughtful look flashed across her eyes.

She had been a little worried that mr. Louis would discriminate against Austin and the others and did not expect mr. Louis to say that at all. “Then let me thank you on behalf of Austin.” mr. Louis smiled as he looked at Nicole.

This proud and cold girl was well-behaved and polite.

Coupled with that paper he had studied for several days now, mr. Louis looked at Nicole with a sense of admiration that was difficult to put into words. “Work hard, Nicole.

I will always look after you.” Nicole did not say anything else as she closed the office door on her way out.

She looked at the set of exercises in her hand, the glint in her eyes indiscernible. Glancing over at her watch, Nicole realized it was already past four in the afternoon.

She carried her light schoolbag, planning to go to the café to brush up. Inside the café, Jared and Max were seated in the guest room on the second floor.

It was at the end of all the private rooms, on the second floor, which was very secretive and had excellent sound insulation. Max served the two sitting opposite Jared tea.

mr. Bond wiped the sweat off his head and did not dare to take the drink.

He instead stood up and spoke to Jared, “mr. Johnston, the billion dollars from this transaction have been transferred and received, and not a penny short.

Please have a look.” Max took the phone and confirmed the account details before nodding toward Jared. Jared leaned against the rattan chair as he slothfully said, “What, you didn’t take a cut?” mr. Bond had always been cunning in his cooperation with the Johnston Group.

However, this time around, after Jared had returned to Hustuaburg, he did something that made mr. Bond behave, Hearing that, mr. Bond said with a serious look, “How would I dare? From now on, mr. Johnston, I will personally check through every transaction between us.

Since there’s no problem, we’ll take our leave then,”

Jared did not stop him while Max looked on as mr. Bond scampered away like a mouse seeing a cat. After contirming that those people had left the cafe, Max returned to Jared as he asked, “mr. Johnston,

we’ve subdued the Bonds who should we target next?” Although larut had returned home as the heir to the Johnston Group, the various companies under the group were all over the place now.

Part of it was still with his second uncle.

Some others had been gobbled up by other family members.

If he wanted to take them back, he needed to take them down one by one. Janxi’s head ched a little as he thonght of it.

As he massaged his temple, he said, “Set this matter aside first.

Have you managed to investigate the matter with Lucifer?” Max’s expression became serious.

“No… but last time, you got Claus to follow Miss Nicole, and a few days later, it seemed like someone from Squadron was investigating us.” “The Squadron” Jared’s gaze dimmed a little The world’s most powerful mercenary organization, the Squadron.

They were both righteous and evil, delving into both sides of the scale.

Anything that a normal organization could not complete, they would be the ones sought after.

Plus, this group did not even have a base and was hidden among the populace.

They were just simply too mysterious. ‘But I never have any involvement with Squadron before.

Why are they investigating me? Could it be.’ Atlash of light appeared in Jared’s eyes, yet he was not totally convinced. Jared looked at the Royal Creek Institute outside the window as a thin mist gradually appeared in his eves.

It was extremely cold vet also extremely elusive. A moment later, lis gaze seemingly caught something, and the chill in his eyes immediately faded away as an almost imperceptible warm smile appeared in its place. Max did not miss the change in his expression and looked on quizzically as he saw nothing at Jared gave him a cold glare.

“Tidy up the place.”

He then went downstairs. The moment Nicole stepped into the café, she saw Jared walking down.

His posture was refined and elegant, his hands tucked casually into his pockets.

Even just by walking down the stairs, he looked like he was walking down the catwalk.

So much so that Nicole stopped and admired the sight for a while, When Jared saw her holding her arms. As she looked intently at him, he felt like he was wrapped inside that scorching gaze and became a little heated, Seeing that he wanted to walk over, Nicole deftly walked to her seat, and Jared followed suit behind her There were many who were discussing Jared in secret.

Words about the handsome face of the cafe had already spread across the school forum, and many had come to catch a glimpse of his face.

Yet, Jared rarely appeared before them. Even when they ran into him occasionally, he would be seated by the entrance waiting for someone.

If they chose to get close to him at this time, his face would turn ice cold and scare away whoever wanted to strike up a conversation with him.

It seemed like he only treated Nicole special “We have a new product today.

Want to give it a try?” He asked like usual. Nicole nodded without any hesitation.

She really liked the coffee in his café, so she did not hold back Soon, Claus brought the coffee over.

When Nicole saw that the insides of the cup were white, she frowned.

“Is this new product … not coffee?” She raised her eyes and glanced at him.

Her cold, pretty face wore no expression on it, yet he could see her disappointment. He found more and more, that Nicole had cute moments at times.

Her mind was so simple that food could affect her mood. When he thought of this, the smile at the corner of his lips deepened. He motioned to Claus for him to place the dessert before Nicole.

“Bon Appetit.” Nicole rarely had desserts.

However, it was rare to see a dessert made so exquisite, so she did not refuse.

Instead, she slowly cut it, selected a corner of the square, and then put it into her mouth to carefully taste it. The moment the dessert entered her mouth, Nicole’s eyes lit up. This is the most traditional and classic Opera cake! “This Opera cake has layers as thin as paper, and the coffee taste is much more neutral.

It is the best combination.” It had to be said, the things made by Jared’s café were delicious. She did not say anything else as she took a few more bites. When Jared saw her revealing an elation that matched her age, the smile in his eyes was as gentle as starlight.

“You like it?”. Nicole looked at him without hesitation.

“Of course.” She would not hide her preference when it comes to food and drinks. Jared looked at her shining eyes, and the elation in his heart surged.

He then smiled as he said, “As long as you like it.”

 

Chapter 134

Chapter 134 Looking at the watch, he got up and spoke to Nicole, “I have something to attend to, so I’ll leave first.

If you need anything, just call Claus.’ He pointed to the little brother at the counter, and only then did Nicole know that he was called Claus. She nodded.

“Okay.” She then took out the exercise mr. Louis gave her and started to twirl her pen as she worked on it. Seeing that she was already into her groove, Jared did not linger and immediately left with Max. VU

Max drove the car and took a glance at Jared, who was resting in the backseat with his eyes closed. The man’s face was half-hidden under the dim light, faintly revealing a cold and sharp outline. 0 The expression on his face became colder and colder, and the whole person looked like a lifeless ice sculpture. Every time when he was about to meet those familiar high houses, Jared would always be like this. As Max thought about it, he could only sigh softly. He only hoped that those people stop provoking Jared, or else they would pay a horrible price for it. As the black car sped across the wide roads of San Joto, the body line of the car became extremely smooth, as if it was a charging angry lion. This location was already close to the city center, and many noticed the car as an incredulous look appeared in their eyes. ‘Isn’t this the car of that person? He’s already back in San Joto?’ they wondered. Thinking of what he had done before, all of them shuddered.

It seemed like an upheaval was about to take place in San Joto. The Rogers family mansion. “Have the invitations been sent out on time!” A sixty-odd-year-old old man was standing in the middle of the manor as he asked a middle aged man coldly “Yes, all of them have been sent out.

Even mr. Johnston, who had just only returned to San Joto, is not left out.

Don’t worry, Father.” When he mentioned Jared, a look of disdain appeared in the middle-aged man’s eyes.

That did not escape mr. Rogers Sr.’s notice as his somewhat muddled eyes lit up as he took up his walking stick and slammed it against the middle-aged man’s leg. With that hit, Jallen grunted as his legs felt weak, and knelt on the ground. He dared not fight back against the punishment his father had meted out but instead only looked at the latter in confusion as he secretly clenched his fist. “Father, why are you punishing me? He had done everything the old man had asked him to.

“This old coot is damn difficult to please,’ he thought. A gloom then swept across Jallen’s eyes.

 

Chapter 135

mr. Rogers Sr. looked at his seemingly well-behaved son and said coldly, “How many times have I told you, never underestimate anyone! If you dare to show that sort of look at mr. Johnston again before me, you can forget about those legs of yours!” Jallen bowed his head and said respectfully, “Yes, Father.” It was only then that mr. Rogers

Sr. nodded with satisfaction.

He still needed his son of his to preside over the banquet later, and that was why he held back.

“Get up.

By the way, have you managed to contact the famous doctor that I asked you to? Have you sent him an invitation yet?” When Jallen heard that, he frowned.

“Father, I’ye asked our technicians to investigate that famous doctor you mentioned.

There’s no such person across Hustuaburg.

Were there any mistakes with the information you had?” When mr. Rogers Sr.

heard that, he exploded into anger.

“You’re useless! How dare you question me? Do you think that now I’ve delegated some authority to you, you can afford to not listen to

me? You probably didn’t even conduct a proper search! I don’t believe the hackers you hired are all that useless! Let me tell you this: since I gave you the authority, I can also take it back at any time.

Don’t you dare rest on your laurels!” When Jallen heard that, he was so terrified that his soul temporarily fled his body.

He immediately fell to his knees.

“Father, I’ve really tried my best to search for him! But that person’s information seemingly just vanished into thin air, as if he had never appeared in Hustuaburg before.

None of my men could find any tracks at all, and all those top-level hackers say that there’s no such person!” When mr. Rogers Sr.

heard that, his expression not only did not improve, but he became even more gloomy.

He touched his ring finger as his voice trembled a little.

“No more delays.

No matter where he is, you must find him for me! Or else I’ll get Christopher’s help instead.

You hear me?” Jallen immediately responded, “Yes, Father! I’ll get them to search day and night.

I’ll give you an answer within a week’s time!” mr. Rogers Sr.

waved his hand.

“Go then.

Go and check how our guests are doing.” Jallen nodded quickly as he got up and went to the front hall to entertain the guests. Seeing Jallen leaving, mr. Rogers Sr.

stood there as his frail and pale body trembled uncontrollably as if he was a piece of withered leaf in the wind. All the servants looked at one another, not knowing if they should step forward or not.

Suddenly, a person came out from the crowd and steadied mr. Rogers Sr.

as he patted the latter on the back.

“Father, what’s wrong?” mr. Rogers Sr.

grabbed his hand.

After some difficulties, he managed to steady his breathing.” Shawn, I’m fine” The anxious expression on Shawn’s face did not seem to be fake as he held onto mr. Rogers Sr.

His tone became a little heavier.

“Father, you’re this sick, and you’re telling me you’re fine? What did our doctor say? I know a very famous doctor; I’ll get him to check up on you tomorrow…” Before Shawn could even complete his words, mr. Rogers Sr.

interrupted him.

“Shawn, the banquet is about to start.

Help me over.” Shawn looked somewhat disapprovingly at him, “Father, your body is already like that.

There’s no need for you to personally appear in this banquet!” mr. Roger Sr.

looked at his youngest son, whom he doted on the most, and then said slowly.” All of the leading families are here.

This is the best opportunity for me to introduce you to them.

Shawn, let’s not delay.” It only then did Shawn reluctantly help mr. Rogers Sr.

to the front hall.

In a corner that the latter could not see, a hidden smile appeared on the corner of Shawn’s lips. Shawn was mr. Rogers Sr.’s illegitimate son, who was only eighteen years old this year.

He was only recently recognized and returned to the family.

Yet he had two elder brothers and one sister above him, and they were not shy about making their opinions known to him. Fortunately for him, mr. Rogers Sr.

placed great importance on him.

The latter knew his time was running out, so he was doing his best to pave the way for Shawn.

Although he could never be the master of the Rogers family, what mr. Rogers Sr.

prepared for him was enough for him to live without any worries for the rest of his life. But he had been suffering from his mother for ten odd years now, and when he finally came to the Rogers household , he could only get a small portion of their massive wealth.

How could Shawn take that standing? He had secretly instigated his father against his two elder brothers.

His sister was already married and so was already separated from her father long ago.

Now in the Rogers family, mr. Rogers Sr.

only trusted him alone. As he held mr. Rogers Sr.

by his side, he took the latter’s hand as mr. Rogers Sr.

delivered the speech, thanking everyone for attending the banquet.

He then heard the latter introduce him to the guests, and as the dignitaries raised a glass for him with a respectful look, Shawn felt good ‘He should be the center of everyone’s attention, being looked at in envy and awe!’ ‘These were what the Rogers family owed him!’
