Ch. 1381..1385: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 1381-1385

Chapter 1381

Sadly, Nicole did not pick up any of the calls.

Jared hung up with a frown and a sigh.

"Max."

Hearing Jared called him, Max instantly pushed the door and entered, "You were looking for me, sir?"

"Try and locate Nicole."

"Noted." Max nodded.

Then, he whipped out his tablet.

After a brief moment, he reported, "Ms.Riddles has returned to the sea view villa."

"villa?"

Jared frowned again.

‘This petty girl.She left home just because she's angry?"

The thought of Nicole sleeping over at Mrs.Wallace Sr"s house made Jared blue.

There was no way he could bring her home when she had just gone there not long ago.

Jared held his head in his hands as his hatred toward Fiorella grew bigger.

'If it weren't for her, Nicole wouldn't have acted this way"

While he was cracking his head on this matter, Max's phone rang.He glanced at the caller [ID and immediately picked up the phone without hesitation.

Then, his face turned gloomy as he replied, "Alright, I'll report it to Mr.Jared."

After the call had ended, Max turned to Jared and said, "Sir, Henry has been brought back, but Mr.Maximillian's men brought him to the family manor."

"Grandpa?"

Jared's eyes turned dark as he did not expect Maximillian to bring Henry home.

"Bring the car.We'll go to the family manor."

Jared was worried that Maximillian would be soft-hearted.He could not let Maximillian decide on this matter alone.

Max followed Jared down and quickly drove him to the Johnston family manor.

After two minutes or so, Jared exited the car.He saw that the vehicle that captured Henry was still there.

‘They must have reached here not long ago"

Jared strode into the manor and found Henry kneeling on the floor.

Maximillian was sitting on the sofa and fiercely stared at Henry, "You're really an incredible son of mine.How dare you lay your hands on your own family member? How did I raise a monster like you?"

Henry was trembling all over when he received the scolding from Maximillian.

He wanted to escape home and also from being punished by the law.

However, he did not expect to be caught back home again.

Seeing that everything had been exposed, Henry knew he had no way out of it.

All he could do was crawl to Maximillian's foot and cry, "Dad, I was wrong! I was too obsessed at that time.Please don't blame me or ignore me! Now that he was caught and brought back, if Maximillian hadn't taken care of him, Henry would probably end up in jail and died there.

After all, he was now responsible for a few people's lives.

"Don't blame you?"

Jared suddenly chuckled.He entered the living room in a depressing mood.

Henry instantly got scared and shivered like the autumn leaves falling from the tree, "Wh-When did you return?"

Initially, Henry wanted to beg Maximillian for a second chance before Jared returned.

However, it was unexpected that he would return this quickly! "Why? Are you that scared of me? Or are you simply scared that you can't coax grandpa with me around?"

Jared exposed Henry mercilessly.

Henry trembled, "I-I'm not! Dad, don't listen to his nonsense! How would I dare? I've really repented on all of my wrongdoings..."

Jared chuckled, "If you really did repent, you wouldn't be caught back here.You would've surrendered yourself earlier!"

Those words instantly slapped Henry in the face.It also made Maximillian come to a realization.

This son of his would do anything just to escape from his sins.

He must not be soft -hearted toward him!

Chapter 1382

"Quit all that nonsense! You better explain from A to Z what happened.What else are you hiding from me?"

Maximillian had been deceived for many years; he wanted the truth now.

"I..."

Henry was at a loss for words.He had done so many bad things that he did not know where to start.

But Jared might expose him, so he chose not to tell the truth.

Maximillian would hate him even more if that were to happen! So, Henry gritted his teeth and began crying, "I-I was wrong...I asked people to knock you and did the trick at the hospital.I-I'm worse than a beast.Dad, please forgive me!"

Of course, Maximillian had known about these already.

But when he heard Henry admitting to it on his own, his heart began to stir.

‘How did I raise such a useless and disrespectful son? And after years of upbringing, he actually tried to kill me! What a rebel!'

"What you did was attempted murder.How do you expect grandpa to forgive you? Even if he does, the law would not easily let go of you."

Jared looked at Henry coldly.

Everything that had fallen on Henry was brought upon him on his own.

"'Y-you want to send me to jail?"

Henry's face turned pale.If he did go to jail, his life would be ruined forever.

"Are there any other options? Who should I ask to compensate for my parents’ lives?"

Speaking of his parents darkened Jared's eyes.

It was so dark that it seemed like he was about to kill people.

When Maximillian heard Jared's words, he was immediately stunned, "What do you mean your parents' lives?"

It was apparent that Henry was also frightened by Jared's words, for his whole body was shaking.y-you know about it?"

Jared's eyes were as cold as ice and sharp as a knife.

He stared at Henry coldly, "Why do you think I came back?"

A thunder roared.

As if his world came crashing down, Henry could not continue kneeling and dropped to the ground.

"Jared, what are you talking about?"

Maximillian immediately turned pale.He trembled and looked at Jared as his heart began to stir.

Jared knew it was time, so he decided to tell Maximillian what he had kept in his heart for along time.

"Grandpa, Henry murdered mum and dad."

Instantly, Maximillian became dizzy as if his entire world had collapsed.

"Sir!"

The house butler was quick to react, and he supported Maximillian.

Only then did he not fall to the ground; he sank into the sofa instead.

But he only managed to return to his senses after a long while.

Looking at Jared, Maximillian's heart ached, "Have you been keeping this to yourself all these years?"

‘When Jared's parents passed away, he was only a teenager.And yet he had to endure the secret for so many years.On top of that, Henry's children chased him out of the country"

At that moment, Maximillian was utterly heartbroken.

‘The only competent grandson of mine had to go through so many hardships! I have failed as a grandfather!’ At that thought, Maximillian turned to Henry, who froze and sat on the ground dumbfoundedly.

His eyes were filled with hatred.

"Alfred! Call the police officers.I want to make sure that he goes to prison!"

'To murder his own brothers and kill his own father? Henry is simply inhumane! Even if he were to be shot today, he would not even blink!' "Dad! Please! You can't do this to me!' Henry immediately returned to his senses and tried to beg for forgiveness.

"Don't call me that! I don't have a son like this! From today onwards, Henry Johnston is not a part of the Johnston family!"

Once Maximillian said those words, Henry was utterly astonished.He began to scream at the top of his lungs.

"Dad! I am your only son! Do you really want to abandon me? My big brother is gone-- do you want to lose me as well?

Chapter 1383

Watching Henry keep hurting Maximillian with his words, Jared could not take it anymore.He lifted his legs and sent a kick toward Henry's chin.He fainted instantly and stopped crying.

"Drag him away."

Jared's eyes were filled with disgust.He did not want to see Henry anymore.

Max quickly brought some men and carried Henry away.

After a moment, the police arrived and immediately detained Henry.

Max also handed over all the evidence they obtained to the police.

The living room had finally regained its peace.

However, if one listened closely, one could catch Maximillian sobbing softly.

Maximillian turned his back to him, worried that Jared would notice him being weak.

He choked with sobs after a long while, "My whole life is a failure.My sons are killing each other, and my grandson has to carry these burdens alone.I am a huge failure!"

Jared felt the sadness coming from Maximillian.He went forward to carry him and said, "Grandpa, I do not blame you."

That sentence alone made Maximillian teared up out of guilt again.He quickly stretched out his hand and hugged Jared.

The pain of losing his own son and the guilt of not being a good grandfather to his grandson stirred Maximillian's heart.He hugged Jared and cried for a long time.

It was nighttime.

Jared comforted Maximillian to sleep.

Then, he went downstairs and was immediately approached by Max.

"All the evidence of Henry scheming to hurt your parents has been sent to the police station.Adding up to his attempted murder at the hospital, tax evasion, corruption, and other charges, I believe Henry would get a death sentence."

Jared's eyes were dark as he listened to a useless person's fate.

Then, he walked out of the manor, turned around, and glanced at it.He took a deep breath, ''Mum, dad...The both of you may rest in peace now."

Then, he turned away charmingly and left the manor.

In the night, his figure looked particularly desolate.

When Nicole woke up, it was already dark outside.She never thought she could sleep for so long by drinking only a little alcohol.

Perhaps, she was too tired as well.

Recently, she had been tense.

But, on the other hand, it could be a good thing since it was rare for her to relax.

Just as she was getting down from her bed, she sensed someone sitting on a chair by the balcony.

She immediately turned around and got down, "Who is it?"

As she was speaking, she switched on the lights too.

A familiar slender figure appeared before her.

Nicole did not expect to see Jared there.

"What are you doing here?"

Nicole got up angrily and asked.

"I missed you."

Jared's voice was deep.

The sensitive Nicole could tell that Jared was not in a good mood.So, she took a few steps forward to check on him.

At that moment, Jared suddenly stretched out his hand, pulled her over, and made her sit on his lap.

Then, he immediately hugged her without letting her see his face.

She sat still as she felt Jared's chin resting on her shoulder.

‘What happened to this guy? He doesn't seem to be in a good mood.' However, Nicole never asked anything.

She just let Jared hug her for a long time.

It was not until Jared's mood lightened that he asked, "Why did you come here without saying anything?"

"Does she know I need her by my side now?' Nicole avoided his gaze guiltily, 'I missed grandma.Why can't I come?"

To be frank, she did not want to see Jared and be reminded of the lipstick stain.

Instead, she wanted to go home and calm down.

Chapter 1384

Jared frowned and looked at her.Then, he replied shamelessly, "But what am I supposed to do? I missed you."

Nicole acted as if she did not care, "That is not my business.Many others miss you.You don't need me."

Her jealous words made Jared burst out in laughter, Are you still jealous?"

Nicole did not admit to it, "I wouldn't dare to.Who am I to be jealous?"

She got up to escape as soon as she finished speaking.

However, Jared held her tightly, "You're my girlfriend, my future wife, mother to my future kids."

Those confident terms and warm hugs made Nicole's heart skip a beat.

‘This guy sure has a way with his words!' "Don't bluff! Go and find the one who kissed you to have your baby!"

As soon as those words came out of her mouth, a light flashed across Jared's eyes, "That's what you said."

After saying that, Jared grabbed the back of Nicole's head and forcefully kissed her.It caught her totally off guard.

Not until she began to be breathless did her brain stop thinking.

When he let go of her, it felt like an eternity.She stared at him with her face flushed— she was speechless after being kissed.

Jared smiled delightedly, "Now, can you listen to my explanation?"

Nicole rolled her eyes at him and objected silently.She did not want to listen to it at all.

But Jared took her into his arms and began to speak slowly.

"That night, I was drugged."

Jared's eyes began to turn dark.He was too careless with Fiorella.

"Drugged?"

Nicole had no idea that that had happened, but she finally understood everything.

‘That w*nch Fiorella is too much!'

"But don't worry.Nothing happened between Fiorella and me."

While reassuring Nicole, he stared into her eyes affectionately.

"There's only one person in my heart, and it's you."

Nicole's face flushed instantly.She could not resist the urge to hit him, "You're fooling around now."

Jared smiled and added regretfully, "That day, Fiorella set me up.And while I was unconscious, she left a stain.And whatever happened after, you've already found out."

All of a sudden, Nicole felt a sense of guilt.

When everything happened, she did not ask any questions.Her jealousy got the best of her when she saw the lipstick stain, causing her to misunderstand Jared.

Nicole remained silent for a long while.

Then, Jared added, "But all of these are still my fault.I will never allow Fiorella to get close to me anymore in the future."

Nicole sighed and covered his mouth, "I trust you.You don't have to promise me anything."

Fiorella was a challenging person to handle.

Nicole did not want Jared to have any massive conflicts.

They would have to take things step by step to get rid of her.

Seeing that Nicole had gotten calmer, Jared heaved a sigh of relief.He held her hand and kissed the back of her hand.

"Then, shall we go home tonight?"

Jared winked at her with a smirk.

Nicole suddenly felt shy, "I've already come here.It wouldn't be nice for me to leave in the middle of the night."

At that hour, Mrs.Wallace Sr.

must have fallen asleep already.

Jared glanced at the bed and said, "In that case, I guess I'll just have to stay here."

Chapter 1385

As Jared spoke, he carried Nicole in his arms arrogantly.

The following day, Nicole woke up before he did.She continued staring at him blankly.

'How could I have misunderstood someone who cares and loves me wholeheartedly?"

"Are you looking at me?" Jared asked as he opened his eyes and looked at her.She sat up shyly and denied, "When did I? I just woke up right before you did."

"Really?"

Jared also sat up and moved closer to her.

"Of course.Get up; breakfast should be ready downstairs."

Nicole was about to get up from bed when Jared grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.

"What are you doing?"

Nicole stared into his eyes nervously.

"What do you think?"

Jared looked into her bright eyes with a smile on his face.

The next second, Jared immediately pressed his lips against Nicole's.

That made her gasp for air.

Then, after a while, he got up and said to her, "Get up."

Nicole immediately came back to her senses.She got out of bed and washed up.

Jared watched her running away and smiled.

After they had washed up, Nicole and Jared headed downstairs for breakfast.

Mrs.Wallace Sr.and Tia were shocked when they saw him appear.

"Sir? Why are you coming down from upstairs?"

Tia looked at him puzzledly and popped the question first.

"I arrived here late last night, so I did not want to wake the both of you up."

Jared made up a lie without any hesitation.

Nicole glanced at him, ‘This guy is getting better at telling lies.He did not even blink"

Hearing his explanation, Tia scratched her head doubtfully.

'I did not go to bed early last night.."

"Come, sit down and eat."

Mrs.Wallace Sr.said to him, understanding what he meant.

Then, everyone ate breakfast in silence.

None of them mentioned that matter anymore.

After breakfast, Nicole helped Mrs.Wallace Sr.to the sofa.

She turned to her and said, "Grandma, my friend sent some supplements from abroad and specifically said it was for you.I'll arrange for someone to send it over to you later."

"It's fine.You can have it.I still have many supplements here, and I can't finish them."

Mrs.Wallace Sr.told Nicole.Some of those supplements were given by Jared, and some were from Harvey and Martin.

"Don't worry.Just take some every day.Day by day, you'll finish it all."

Nicole smiled and told Mrs.Wallace Sr.After chatting for a while, Nicole looked at the time and said, "Grandma, you can just relax here.Jared and I are going to work now."

"Alright, go ahead."

Mrs.Wallace Sr.waved at them.

"We'll get going now."

Jared bid goodbye to her.

Then, he drove Nicole out of the sea view villa.

In the car, Jared asked Nicole, "Are you going to the lab?"

"Yeah.And you?"she asked him.

"I'm going to the office."

"Later during noon..."

The both of them spoke in unison.

Jared and Nicole looked at each other and laughed.

"You go first."he said politely.

"If you're free at noon, we can have lunch together."she gave a suggestion.

"Sure."

"Your turn."she stared at him, anticipating what he had to say to her.
