Ch. 1491..1495: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 1491-1495

Chapter 1491

Following this, Nicole heard a flurry of gunshots being fired from outside the car and the sound of explosions banging on her ears. The man in the face mask's gun could not be found. Watching the aircraft in the skies being shot down one by one and seeing Nicole's watch still blinking, he could only roar in anger, "Retreat!"

The dark-clothed men got their orders and clustered around the man in the face mask while retreating, confused. Nicole saw this and quickly pressed stop on the detonating feature of the watch.

‘So close. With only less than twenty seconds left. If the rescue were late even by a bit, I would've been a goner...' She thought to herself.

‘However, who was the one who came so swiftly to rescue me? Even if Jason and the others were still on the way, they could not have arrived now,' Nicole continued her train of thought.

Just as she was thinking about it, the sound of a helicopter landing was heard. Nicole glanced sidelong, but her whole body was stuck in the overturned car. She was lying on the ground and could only see a silhouette walking toward her from afar.

The silhouette was tall, slender, and familiar.

Could it be...

Her thoughts were still running when the person had already seen her. He ran directly in the direction of the jeep. Nicole could clearly see the man running over.

It was him. It really was him! Whenever and wherever she was in danger, that person would definitely appear...

However, should he not be in a coma now? Why was he here? Then she saw that under his black trench coat, he was still wearing his hospital gown. Her eyes turned watery.

‘This guy definitely didn't listen to the doctor's orders. The first thing he did after waking up was to find me,’ Nicole thought.

"Nicole!" Jared said and rushed to the side of the vehicle. Seeing Nicole drenched in blood, his heart felt like it was pierced by something. It ached unbearably.

He did not care about his body strength. He pried open the car door and dragged her frail body out. He didn't care about blood stains on her body and held her tightly, “I'm sorry..."

He hated himself so much for sleeping so long. For letting her suffer and almost getting her killed. Once he remembered that

Nicole was surrounded by so many people from above just now, his heart almost seemed to suffocate with excruciating pain.

"You came..." Nicole used all her strength to hold onto Jared's neck. His chest felt safe and sound. Only in his embrace could she be able to feel so at ease.

"I've arrived..."Jared softly whispered into her ears and directly held her up, “Go to the nearest hospital!"

Nicole did not speak and allowed him to carry her onto the aircraft. The exhaustion slowly settled in. Nicole enjoyed the feeling of his embrace. She slowly shut her eyes and fell asleep.

Seeing Nicole behave like a kitten in his arms and slowly drift asleep, Jared felt immense distress. He could not help but close his face onto her forehead and kiss her...

His gaze landed on the new device on Nicole's arm. He pressed the red button. The still-slumbering Nicole's brows unfurrowed as she fell into a deeper sleep. She had not rested well these few days. Nicole felt herself sleeping for a long time and had a very long and beautiful dream.

 

Chapter 1492

Jared woke up and came to her rescue. He kept her company every day and brought her out to play. No missions, no family restrictions. She could go anywhere she wanted to go.

In her dreams, she was like a normal girl. She could go shopping with him, go to the fairgrounds, eat ice cream, and do the stuff she used to think was childish. As long as she was with Jared, she felt everything had meaning.

After a long time, she gradually woke up. The sunlight pierced through the curtains and gently shone into the room. The whole interior became particularly warm. Nicole tried to move but felt her hand being grasped. She lowered her head and discovered that Jared was lying on her bed, seemingly asleep without changing his clothes.

She looked at him with a hurt expression. Nicole was most familiar with his body conditions. He had just woken up and should be very weak. Nicole pulled out her hand and tried to wake him up. Yet, he woke up simultaneously when she pulled her hand out.

Seeing Nicole woke up, Jared's gaze brightened. He immediately asked, "How are you? You thirsty?"

Nicole nodded her head. Sleeping for so long did make her slightly thirsty. Jared wanted to get up to pour water for Nicole.

Suddenly, a figure from the sofa was one step ahead to pour water and quickly put it at Nicole's side.

Nicole raised her head and saw Carl's worried and complicated expression. It was fortunate that she was okay. Yet, he was a bit helpless. He did not know how to face

Nicole. He assumed the words she said when she was close to death were true...

Carl glanced at Jared's cold gaze and said with slight guilt," Your body seemed quite frail. You can call for me to do these things for you."

Although before this, Carl was not satisfied with Jared.

However, this time, Jared saved Nicole. He also noticed that the only person able to protect Nicole was Jared. He was ultimately not compatible with Nicole...

Hence, he was willing to bless them from the deepest part of his heart and ready to help Jared willingly. Jared saw Carl's genuine expression and felt his heart feel more comfortable. He had stood guard for Nicole for two days, making his body relatively weak. He did not heed Carl any longer. He watched Nicole finish drinking her water and said in a low voice, “Feeling better?"

"Mmm," Nicole nodded, "No need to be so worried over me. I feel fine." She said while touching her head. The final injury was her head in the overturned car, but she is not in pain currently.

“Thankfully, you brought the Beacon product with you. You had some light injuries, and the doctor only needed to bandage them.

However, the new light performed its function. Your injuries healed very swiftly. With merely two days, you were almost fully healed,” Carl said while taking the cup and putting it down. His whole body felt a wave of relief wash through.

Then only did Nicole remember that she had brought this product from Beacon before. It was just that she did not get injured so mheavily last time. Hence, she did not want to waste it but did not expect it to be used by them.

"What a pity. It was just a slight injury; there is no need to waste it," Having these things are costly. The production of this product on Martin's side is also little.

"It's fine. I have already increased the investments on Martin's side. The first batch of devices will be sent here very quickly,”

Jared said. He had understood the situation at the base these two days. He also knew that there was many injured personnel, so he contacted Martin and let him send the stuff over.

Nicole saw Jared's expression and could not help but be filled with reassurance. Indeed she did not need to bother as long as Jared was present.

"You think so considerately,” Nicole smiled at Jared. The smile on her face was like a flower blossoming.

Carl saw her smile and was stunned. However, following this, his heart was slightly envious. He was destined never to behold her smile in his current life.

"You guys can talk first. I'll inform Mr. Douglas that you've awakened,” Carl said. He merely wanted fresh air and did not want to interrupt their romantic moment.

"Mr. Douglas came?” Nicole was shocked and did not expect Zane to have rushed over from their headquarters.

Chapter 1493

"Of course.He heard you were injured, so Mr.Douglas rushed over as soon as possible.But, you were in a coma for two days, so I arranged for him to stay at the base," Carl replied.

"Oh..."

Nicole's expression was slightly awkward as she had not expected that she would have slept for two days.

It was honestly too much; most likely, Douglas was already furious.

Yet, she only had eyes for Jared at the moment.

"When did you wake up? I didn't even know..." Nicole asked.

When Mr.Johnston Sr. came over, he had clearly not yet awoken.

However, when she was in danger, he rushed around from the mainland.

Jared stared at the surprise and worry that glinted in Nicole's eyes, then looked at her and reproached, "I haven't woken up yet, and you dumped me and then went adventuring all alone? What did you plan to do if I had not rushed over in time?"

Once he remembered Nicole's blood-soaked state, his heart felt like it was painfully stabbed.

It was not like he had not seen Nicole go on missions.

He also guessed that a strong person like Nicole would definitely be met with dangerous missions in the organization.

However, before this, she would always save the day.

But this time, he noticed how dangerous Nicole's jobs were.

Being stared by his searing gaze, Nicole was feeling slightly guilty.

She did not know how to answer and merely mumbled, "It was an emergency, and I was worried I would drag you down. So I left..."

"Then you used this thing to observe me constantly?"

Jared narrowed his gaze and pulled out a pinhole camera from his pocket.

Nicole did not expect him to know and could only squeeze an ugly smile while saying, "I was just worried for you..."

"Was it also you who agreed to let Martin send Fiorella to my sick ward?"

Jared continued asking.

'Is this woman not jealous?" He thought.

When mentioning Fiorella, Nicole's expression turned worse.

She pouted, saying, "Of course not.It's just that it would be impossible for Martin to always stay with you at the sick ward.On Max's side, if he kept running to the hospital, grandfather would know.Since Fiorella would not have any ill intentions toward you..."

"No ill intentions.Are you sure?"Jared said with a face filled with glumness.

‘Does this woman care about me after all?' Jared thought.

Seeing that Jared was not speaking and was seemingly angry, Nicole could only sigh, "Of course, I was not reassured.I wanted so badly to fly back immediately.If there had been no accident the day before, I would have already left and returned to your side..."

Jared's emotions felt much better when he heard those words coming from the bottom of her heart.

His gaze also softened slightly, but his tone was still scolding, "If you really wanted to go back, why did you not consider more for yourself?"

He had already heard the incident from Carl's mouth and knew that Nicole chose to sacrifice herself to protect Carl.His heart was filled with rage and distress for her.

Nicole was stunned and answered awkwardly, 'Was it Carl who told you?"

Jared's gaze turned stormy, and he said, "Do you know how it feels to hear from another man's mouth that my woman sacrificed herself to save him at all costs?"

Heartache and inexplicable jealousy were what he felt.

The more he looked at Carl, the more Carl looked like an eyesore.

Nicole understood Jared so well and knew he was slightly jealous.

She could only tell him the truth, "On a mission before we met, Carl got heavily injured and disappeared into the sea for a long time when he tried to protect me.I still remember the feeling of guilt now...So, I really didn't want to lose him again."

Nicole's words were spoken with deep emotions.

But when Jared's ears heard them, it only made him feel more unbearable.

"Then you would have the heart to let me lose you?"

His voice was still cold but also hinted at a sliver of fear.

Jared was not afraid of anything.

No one would make him scared, and he did not fear death.

Yet this time, he was terrified.

If he were late by just a bit, he would not get to see her again.

Seeing Jared's blue gaze, Nicole's heart sank.

She could only droop her head and say, "I'm sorry...Jared..."

Chapter 1494

She had almost never uttered these two words to anyone, but this time, she could not help but to do so, as she had truly disregarded his feelings.

Seeing her bow her head as she admitted to her wrongdoings, Jared felt heavy in his heart.

With considerable effort, he held her in his arms and said, "I don't want your apology.I want you to take good care of yourself.If you were in my position, would you allow yourself to lose me?"

Nicole immediately thought of the critical injuries that he had sustained for her.

Indeed, all she could feel when he was in a coma was a deep, crippling heartache.

"If I have to lose you, you might as well just stab me and let me die, "

Jared said, his words brimming with a measure of sincerity and gentleness that made Nicole's heart quiver.It was only then that Nicole knew how important she was to Jared, and how painful it would be for him to lose her.

"Remember this.The day you die, I will not be able to live on alone.I will never let go of you, even if it means following you to hell and back," Jared said.

Looking out the window, he did not allow her to look into his eyes and see how serious he truly was.

His words were akin to that of an oath.

It reverberated across the room, with each word etching itself into Nicole's heart.

Hearing this, she could not help but raise her arms to hug Jared as her heart quivered.

"The same goes to me.In that case, let us promise that if you die first, I will definitely not let you go alone," Nicole answered.

It was then that questions began to arise.

Why would she not be the same when she had lost him? Why would she also love him to the point of not being able to let go, even in death? Jared never thought that she would actually make this pact with him, that he was actually so important to her.

"Why would I die, silly girl?" Jared said as he let go of her head.

Then, he gazed into her eyes and said, "You haven't married me yet.How could I allow myself to die?"

Unable to help herself, she remarked, "So imprudent."

To her, he had ruined such a beautiful moment.

Meanwhile, Jared bit his lips, feeling that she was incredibly adorable.

In response, he planted a kiss on her forehead.

However, it was also then that the door to the ward swung open.

Carl and Zane walked in, and as soon as they saw the scene before them, they were taken aback.

There, things took an awkward turn, with the duo pondering if they should stay or go.

Thankfully, Nicole had heard the sound and raised her arms up to push Jared away lightly.

Seeing that Carl and Zane had entered, her face turned bright red.

"Mr.Douglas...you came."

‘That fella, Carl.Didn't he tell me that he would inform Mr.Spears? Why did he bring him here?"

Nicole thought to herself.

Zane coughed and pretended as if nothing had happened.

And after clearing his throat, he asked, "Are you feeling better?"

Nicole nodded and replied, Thanks to the Beacon, I have made a swift recovery."

‘The things that Martin had invented are truly handy, indeed" she thought.

At the mention of the Beacon, Zane shot Jared a glance before saying, "It's pretty useful.Your fiancé had a large shipment of Beacons sent over to us.We are ready to distribute them to everyone at the base and headquarters."

Nicole was pleasantly surprised, as she did not expect Jared to actually be so considerate.

Concurrently, Zane walked up to Jared and asked, ''How is your body? You have been taking care of Nicole for a while now.Are you okay?"

Zane's tone of concern took her aback.

Chapter 1495

Nicole suddenly thought that Jared and Zane might actually know each other.

Otherwise, there would be little explanation as to why Zane had given her the coffee beans that were procured from Jared's farm.

As expected, Jared maintained a very polite tone with Zane.

"I'm fine.It's only right for me to take care of her."

Zane smiled.

"I never expected that you and Nicole were together.I'd have introduced you guys to each other earlier if I knew that this would happen.

In response, Jared said, "Yeah.It's a shame I didn't get to see her when I met you back then."

As the conversation occurred, Nicole began to feel a little awkward.

She figured that she might probably not have any feelings for Jared if they had met each other earlier.

"Mir.Spears, how did you get to know Jared?"

Nicole asked, as she was a little curious about it.

It was then that Zane realized that Nicole was still there.

In awkward fashion, he replied, "We've known each other for a long time.I first met him when I visited his grandpa, but he was still a teenager back then."

Nicole lifted her brows and looked at Jared.

'I see.Mr.Spears is a friend of Jared's father.Now I know why he'd always send him coffee"

After having engaged in all of the small talk, Zane cut straight back to the chase again.

"I'm afraid that your grandpa has heard about it now that you're here."

Jared knew what Zane was talking about, as his face took on a solemn expression.

"Yes.He has heard about it."

As soon as Jared had woken up, his grandfather had informed him about the Reby Family Crest.

His instincts had clued him in, and that Nicole was his fiancée.

Thus, he had rushed to her aid without bothering to keep himself well rested at all.

He was worried that his fiancée would be in danger.

After listening to their conversation, Nicole could almost guess what they were talking about.

Her gaze darkened as she said in a low voice, "I guess the Johnston family is also one of the families affiliated to the Reby Family Crest, am I right?"

Both Zane and Jared looked at Nicole at the same time, as if they were admitting that what she had said was right.

"Not only the Johnstons, but every other family who were involved in the Holy War back then, and that includes me.I've heard about it," Zane said.

Zane sat on the sofa and with a solemn look on his face, he said, "Rumor has it that the descendants of the Reby family retrieved crest and hid it more than a century ago.None of us have expected it to

reappear again.However, every family in the Holy Alliance are bound to the will of our ancestors, and will obey whoever possesses the Reby Family Crest, no matter what."

"Holy Alliance? Holy War?" Nicole asked, as she could vaguely remember the system mentioning these keywords when she was searching for the owner of the crest back then.

Zane noticed how confused she was, so he took a deep breath and continued, "It's a long story and it's only briefly mentioned in our family's records. More than a thousand years ago, rumor has it that a deadly tribe went on a rampage on our land, and nobody could stop them.

"Because of this, every powerful family in the world had no choice but to form the Holy Alliance to stand against them.Still, we failed anyway.

After that, the Reby family invented a drug, which managed to obliterate our enemies for good.

However, they also lost five of their bravest and most formidable sons in the battle.

"That was why the Holy Alliance had gifted five crests to the descendants of the fallen warriors of the Reby Family as a token of gratitude."

Carl and Nicole looked at each other after they had heard this myth -like story.

"Do people really believe in things like this in this day and age?"

"Even though some of the allies from a thousand years ago had disappeared, the families that are still around all have a very long history.

All of us value the will and traditions of our ancestors very much.

All the families have documented this incident at the very beginning of their family's history, so the descendants take it very seriously.

That being said, every descendant of the families that are a part of the Holy Alliance will do everything they can to assist and protect the person who holds the crest,"

Zane finished.

"But isn't this crest supposed to be given to the Reby family? Why would somebody else own it now?" Nicole said, curious.

Zane then sighed and said, "According to what my ancestors have documented, somebody coveted the power of the crest about two hundred years ago, so they stole it away from the Reby family.

However, the descendants of the Holy Alliance followed the orders of their forefathers and obeyed the person who had stolen it nonetheless.

Then, chaos broke out a hundred years later, so the Reby family retrieved the crests and destroyed them.

Nobody would've thought that one of the crests...would be with you now."

Zane stared at Nicole with a look that indicated mixed feelings.
