Ch. 141..145: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 141-145

Chapter 141

Harvey paused as he looked at the leaving duo with a half-smile as he simply said, “Yes, she’s a junior in school.”

Mr. Rogers Sr. continued to ask, “Ah, I forgot to task, Mr. Harvey, that young lady that came with you earlier…”

When Harvey attended banquets like this, he would bring Snow with him from time to time, but now he had no mood for banal exchanges, so he said softly, “Mr. Rogers Sr., that’s my own private matter.”

Guessing that Jared and Nicole were already long gone by this time and sensing the impatience

in Harvey, Mr. Rogers Sr. smiled. “You are right, Master Harvey.” At this moment, Mr. Wyance seemed to have keenly noticed something. As he looked at the grinning Mr. Rogers Sr., he asked, “Mr. Rogers Sr., did you say the girl was named Riddle?”

Ever since Nicole arrived, Mr. Rogers Sr. felt that his chest was much relieved. He was no longer that temperamental as he said slowly, “Yes. She’s a Riddle, a very beautiful young lady, and I could not believe that she actually is…”

As he said that, Mr. Rogers Sr. seemed to realize something as he stopped talking. Yet, Mr. Wyance had already managed to guess Nicole’s identity! ‘She is the one I was looking for!’ He said to himself. ‘She was right here, right there before him, and he did not know!’ Realizing that he had missed the chance to speak with Nicole, he lost all his appetite. He respectfully got up and wanted to see if he could catch up to Nicole.

Mr. Rogers Sr. was startled for a second, and a deep thought appeared in his eyes.

‘Who was Nicole? She had only just stayed for a minute, and how did she take all these people away with her?’ he wondered.

Mr. Rogers Sr. called out to Shawn. “Shawn, go and call your brothers here!”

Shawn acknowledged as he ran over to call Jallen and Christopher over. Jallen was entertaining guests at that time and walked over with a confused look “Father, what’s the matter?”

Mr. Rogers Sr. was pissed off when he saw the latter’s foolish look. “What’s the matter? Hold this fort!”

Seeing the Rogerses in a mess, Damien and Miley originally wanted to chase after Nicole to question her, but after struggling for a few seconds, the two of them decided to stay in the banquet.

After all, all the dignitaries of the imperial capital are gathered here. If they can get on with one or two, they will already be worth the trip. As for Nicole, they will have plenty of time to question her once she goes back to the Riddle family home

Nicole and Jared walked out of the manor, and Max had already driven the car out. Jared then looked at her expressionless eye as he gently raised his eyebrow.”Getting in?”

Nicole recalled the last time he used such a tone to ask her to get into the car, and a strange look appeared in her eyes, seemingly wondering where he was going to take her. Seeing her expression, Jared could immediately tell what she was thinking as he sniggered,” I’ll take you back to school, don’t worry.”

Nicole gave him a glance before getting into the car.

The car was very fast, and its bodyline was beautiful. Even Nicole, a motorcycle enthusiast, had to admit that it was a good car.

Jared noticed that she was looking outside, leaving only half of her beautiful face for him to look at. He then said plainly, “Don’t you think you owe me an explanation?”

Nicole turned to look at him and said seriously, “Someone asked me to go to Mr. Rogers Sr.’s banquet. I didn’t know you’d be there.”

He looked at her bright eyes for a few seconds as if trying to gauge the credibility of her words.

 

Chapter 142

Nicole did not look away as her pair of eyes looking at him was not that frigid. Instead, it was like a calm lake, beautiful and enchanting. Jared looked away and said, “If there’s something like this in the future, I’ll take you along.”

When he heard that, Max, who was driving, gave Jared a surprised glance.

‘His boss had never attended a banquet with a female companion before!’

However, when he recalled his boss’ not-so-closeness toward the ladies seemed useless against Nicole, he was relieved.

Jared then casually continued, “The girl sitting beside me today is Mr. Rogers Sr.’s granddaughter. Today is, after all, his birthday banquet. I was giving him face, so I did not chase her away.”

Nicole nodded when she heard that as she looked at him.

Max could see from the rear mirror the confusion in Nicole’s eyes, seemingly not understanding why Jared was telling her that.

Seeing this, Jared swept a cold glance over, and Max immediately looked away.

Jared looked at Nicole’s emotionless eyes. The warmth in his heart slowly cooled as a chill appeared in his eyes as he looked on at this seemingly heartless woman as he hissed, “Fine, Nicole, you win.”

After dropping Nicole off at her school, the black car drove away directly.

Nicole looked at the car and fell into a rare deep thought.

In fact, when she entered the banquet hall and saw a beautiful girl by Jared’s side, she actually felt a little uncomfortable. Yet she could not grasp what this feeling was. Looking at her watch, it was almost nine o’clock in the evening. She did not dwell on it as she turned toward her school and walked off.

It was already dark, and there were not many people in school right now. So, she just casually strolled as she took out her phone and sent a message. “Mission complete.”

The other side quickly replied with an “OK” and nothing else. When Nicole saw Mr. Rogers Sr. today, he was very pale, and his cardiopulmonary functions were poor too. Going by the older generations, it was as if something was sapping his vitality.

She had casually pressed against his shoulder and was actually looking for a nerve point. Aside from helping with his circulation, she could also tell what the problem roughly was.

Recalling Shawn’s strange expression back then, her eyes narrowed slightly as he seemed to know something about the old man’s condition.

However, this was the Rogers family’s affair. She had no right to interfere.

11 was now up to whether Christo Rogers could unravel her present and listen to himself.

Thinking of this, Nicole arrived at the entrance of the dormitory. She was just about to go in when a hand grabbed her shoulder. She frowned a little as she turned around and grabbed it, wanting to pull off a back toss.

Yet the person behind her was very familiar with this move, and when Nicole used her strength, he stood still as if he was ready for it and used the momentum to pull Nicole into his

arm.

Nicole’s eyes turned chilly as she applied force to her feet and tried to spin away to pull a distance as she lashed a kick out. Her attack was fast and powerful as she did not hold back.

Judging from the person’s skill, he was very likely not a student but someone trained in martial arts.

A pro!

Chapter 143

Her opponent seemed to know Nicole’s strength well, and to avoid the kick, he immediately let her hands go as he darted backward, causing the kick to miss. In that brief exchange, Nicole had achieved what she wanted. As she looked over coldly, a look of shock flashed across her eyes.

The person was looking downwards, seemingly entranced at her hand. He finally caught her, even though it was only for a few seconds. A deep look gradually appeared in his eyes. Even though it was just a few seconds, it could be a few minutes, a few hours in the future. ‘Does that not mean that he could hold on to her forever and ever?’

He then looked up, his expression was wholly creepy. Nicole started at him and frowned. She did not expect this at all.

It was actually Harvey! Thinking of his earlier behavior, a cold glint Mashed past Nicole’s face. “Harvey Ellison, did you do that on purpose?” Harvey saw her looking at him. Her eyes were bright, like a snow plain under a bright sun. It was everything most immaculate, and all that was reflected alongside him in her eyes

He could not help but snigger. “Yes, I did this on purpose.” He looked up at her, a scorching light raging in his eyes. “Nicole, can you tell me, what do I need to do for you to willingly allow yourself to fall into my grasp?” Nicole looked at him now and saw that he had seemingly shed his warm outer skin as he was radiating a danger that was beyond words, Thinking of his question, she looked impassively at Harvey. “The thought of me falling into your grasp is itself delusional!” ‘I ain’t belong to anyone, and it is impossible for me to fall into anyone’s grasp!’

When Harvey heard this, it was as if he had heard the greatest joke ever. How many people had wanted his favor only for him to refuse them, yet Nicole seemed to be born to spurn him. That made him unable to control the gaze he placed on her, yet he had no way to obtain her.

The light in his eyes flickered as he finally let out a smile before saying softly. “Understood.”

ole looked at his departing silhouette, her eyes somewhat impassive.

She suddenly thought of what Jared said earlier,

After slowly chewing through the words, she seemed to taste something different.

Early next morning, Nicole went for her morning training as usual and noticed that Harvey did not hinder her. She instead ran into him on the track.

He was wearing a white tracksuit with a hairband tying his hair up. He looked unlike his usual style, but it was particularly handsome. Many girls were taking photos as they whispered among themselves with admiration in their eyes.

Seeing Nicole coming over, he smiled as he waved at her. “Nicole, over here.” Nicole looked at him with an impassive face as she turned around and left. Harvey seemed to have expected this and continued running without much reaction as the smile on his face remained.

A few girls were cursing Nicole for not knowing her place, and Harvey stopped as he looked at her coldly. “Don’t let me hear that ever again.” Those girls had never seen him being so cold before and were so scared they burst into tears, nodding as they promised to never repeat that again. Only then did Harvey look away as he turned toward the direction Nicole had left, a thoughtful look appearing in his eyes.

A benevolent hunter would capture his prey using the method the prey liked. And so, he would. After coming back from her training, Nicole felt particularly irritated. ‘Do I need to train like this every morning if Harvey shows up?’

The reason she refused to make contact with Harvey was that she felt that it was troublesome, but now, it seemed like not making contact was equally troublesome.

She looked at the sun as she inexplicably recalled what Jared said yesterday. ‘What did he mean by you win?’ When Nicole was on the way to the classroom, she was still thinking about it.

When she arrived, Bradley was already there and was reading intently. Lulu was not around, probably being called by the teacher to get the study materials. June was seated there memorizing Esperian vocabulary, and when she saw Nicole, she smiled at her.

When Nicole saw her, a smile too appeared in her eyes.

She then went to her seat, and just as she was about to pull out her exercise questions, a voice came from behind her. “Nicole, what’s your relationship with Christo Rogers?” ‘Christo Rogers?’

Nicole thought for a bit and only remembered that he was the same Mr. Rogers Sr. who was the host of yesterday’s birthday banquet.

The person asking her that was Gary. Nicole did not turn around and said, “Nothing.”

Gary looked firmly at her back. His brother told him yesterday that he saw Nicole at the banquet. He did not believe it at first, but he then heard Mr. Rogers Sr. himself lead her into the banquet.

When Gary thought of it, he frowned.

Mr. Rogers Sr.’s attitude toward Nicole yesterday did not look like there was “nothing” between them. Yet, when he used all sorts of hacking techniques, he could not get anything about Nicole at all, and Gary felt a little miffed.

He dared not say how good his computer skills were, but he was definitely at the level of a pro hacker. Finding out someone’s identity was a simple matter, and it was impossible for Nicole to hide her identity under his tracking!

 

Chapter 144

But since Nicole refused to say anything, Gary could do nothing.

However, his gaze toward Nicole now bore a little more meaning to it.

Vivian saw the interaction between Gary and Nicole, and she bit her lips. Gary was asking Nicole about her relationship with Mr. Rogers Sr. Her parents had gone to the banquet yesterday and said that Mr. Rogers Sr. personally received a very beautiful girl. But due to the distance, they could not hear who it was. Since Gary was asking Nicole, it was very likely that the girl they spoke of yesterday was Nicole! ‘So, the reason she could run rampant in school was because of her relationship with the Rogers family?’ Vivian looked at Nicole with a touch of disdain in her eyes.

‘Who knows what kind of relationship Nicole has with those old coots!’

She glanced at Nicole again one last time. Her brother, Sammey, had also warned her not to provoke Nicole. Not only did her brother not side with her, but instead, he defended Nicole in every single way. How could she live that down?

Vivian noticed that Gary’s eyes were affixed to Nicole, and he did not even notice Ms. Emerson had walked into class. That made her even angrier. After class, Nicole headed to the cafeteria to eat with Lulu.

There were many people still in the cafeteria, and after getting their order and finally finding an empty spot, they were pushed away by a group of girls as they sat on the seats,

Nicole frowned a little, and seeing the group with their gangster girl look, Lulu tugged at her, motioning for her to walk away and not confront them.

That caused Nicole and Lulu to wait for a good while for an empty table. Nicole frowned, and she did not want to give up.

Just as she was about to step forward, a lane opened in the crowd. Harvey nodded in acknowledgment to the people around him as he walked over. Seeing the situation at Nicole’s table, he frowned a little as he walked over and asked, “What’s going on?” He did not look at Nicole but instead asked Lulu, who was standing beside her. Being looked at by Harvey like that, Lulu could not hold it in and told him everything that had happened earlier.

Hearing this, the light in Harvey’s eyes dimmed as he walked to the few gangster girls and knocked on the table as he said, “Girls, seating in the cafeteria is first come, first serve. If you did not come first, then please don’t take the seats.” When the girls saw him, they blushed as they fidgeted while looking at Harvey, saying,” Harvey, we did this because we saw Nicole not respecting you!” When he heard that, the cold glint in his eyes disappeared, but he said even more gently,” Nicole did not disrespect me. You’ve misunderstood. I don’t need you girls to speak out for me but thank you regardless.”

“So, can you girls get up and give the seats to them?” The few girls nodded, but one of them reluctantly said, “Harvey, why are you so nice to Nicole? She’s a bad person, and she isn’t worth your attention!”

Harvey turned and looked at Nicole as he smiled and said, “Don’t you all know the reason already?”

‘Don’t they all know?’ ‘What do you mean?’

The girls looked at each other and recalled the video of Harvey confessing to Nicole.

‘Was that real?’

The few of them turned pale. They had never expected Harvey to say something like that.

Nicole, too did not see that coming as she bit her lips and looked dimly at Harvey. “Lulu, let’s

go.”

Lulu was a little confused. Harvey had already helped her and Nicole get the table, so why should they go? However, seeing Nicole’s expression, Lulu did not say much.

Harvey saw Nicole was really leaving, and his expression froze a little. He had only wanted to test her, but he did not expect her reaction to be so big. 3

Chapter 145

Harvey once again regretted his rashness as he looked at Nicole and said, “Sorry, Nicole… I couldn’t help it…”

Everyone in the cafeteria looked at this scene in shock. ‘Harvey has always been so perfect, so high and mighty, and now he is apologizing to Nicole, a total nobody!’

Everyone gawked as they looked at the scene, and those few gangster girls turned their eyes on Nicole, brimming with jealousy and resentment.

‘What right does Nicole have to be treated like this by Harvey?’

Everyone thought that Nicole would forgive him. After all, no one could reject an apology so sincere from Harvey.

Yet however, Nicole’s face became even colder as she gave Harvey a cold glance. His apology was simply just to push her into the cusp of his grasp again.

She did not even look back as she turned and left the cafeteria.

Harvey’s face was as pale as a ghost as he looked at Nicole’s departing figure, a cold glint flashing past his eyes.

So close, it was so close for him to be able to naturally sit down with Nicole and have a meal with her. 1

However, it did not matter.

Harvey smiled at everyone in the cafeteria and casually left the place.

Lulu followed behind Nicole as she whispered, “Nicole, what’s the deal with you and Harvey?”

It seemed like Harvey really cared about Nicole.

Nicole frowned. Even Lulu felt that away. There were probably plenty in school who were blinded by what Harvey did.

Others may not know, but she knew Harvey’s freakish desire for control very well.

To him, she was probably an extremely unstable factor that was beyond his control. That was why he was trying so hard to get her to listen to him.

Just like Snow

When she thought of this, Nicole sneered.

being that Lulu also missed her lunch because of her, Nicole patted the latter’s fluffy face as Che said, “I’ll treat you to a meal outside, okay?” I

Tulus oyes lit up “I’ve long wanted to eat out Today’s a blessing in disguise, I GUDI There’s no need for you to treat me, Nicole I’ll pay today!

Nirale looked at her with a smile as the two walked out of the school.

Unexpectedly, just as Nicole and Lulu walked out of the school, they were stopped by a tall guy with many people behind him

They were Cain and his goons!

Lulu was so terrified her face turned pale After all, Cain was well-known in this area, and no one dared to mess with him. It was just that he got beaten up by someone in the past few day3 and was hospitalized Now that he was out of the hospital, he probably came straight to ber to find trouble with Nicole

It was noon, and there were quite a few people near the cafeteria All of them saw Cain stopping Nicole, and they immediately started whispering to one another as they stood there to watch the show

The daughter of the Rowe family had been absent for a few days now, and it must’ve been Nicole’s work Look, isn’t her boyfriend here to seek revenge?”

“Cain is a beast you do not want to poke He is afraid of no one other than Gary, and even Austin is nothing to him Nicole’s gonna pay today!
