Ch. 1591..1595: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 1591-1595

Chapter 1591

She clenched her hands tightly. ‘That's two lives gone... and they are both her own biological parents."

‘lf Norah was really that ruthless, I will not let this slide!" she seethed.

With that in mind, she instantly proceeded to give a few familiar folks a call, getting the local police force to launch an investigation. Even though Sean would most definitely be investigating on his end, information would definitely arrive in a timelier fashion and in greater accuracy from those under the pressure of Interpol. After hanging up, Nicole looked at Norah's class with a grim look in her eyes.

"Norah... if all this is true, then you've truly brought this upon yourself."

And as Nicole made her way back to her classroom seething with murderous intent, the sun was suddenly obscured by dark, gray clouds looming above them.

The day soon passed, and once school was over, Samuel and Spencer stood at the school gate, waiting for Nicole.

She saw the rather anxious expressions of their faces and quizzically, they asked, "What's the matter? Why the long face?"

Samuel looked at Nicole with worry written all over his face. "Someone had called the police in the morning, and I don't know what Norah told the police, but it seems that the officers had gone to our house. Mom and Dad gave us a call moments ago, and they asked us to go home as soon as possible. Mom's worried about you."

Nicole's eyes darkened a little, for she had not even gone after Norah, and yet, the latter had already brought the police to her house.

Fortunately, it just so happened she had already gotten the information she wanted. ‘So let's send Norah to where she truly belongs today then!’

"If that's the case, let's go then." Nicole calmly looked at the twins.

Samuel pulled Nicole over. "Wait, Nicole... I heard that Norah even brought a lawyer to sue you for causing deliberate harm to her."

"Yeah... Although she had attempted to hurt you, what you did to her wrist was..."

The two brothers began discussing about the issue.

However, they were no law students and did not know which one of the problems was more serious. They could only fear that they would drag Nicole down with them.

Nicole let out a wry smile in response. "Responsibilities aside. Who do you think dares to detain me now?"

Everyone in San Joto knew about her current status, except for blue-collared folks like Norah, who did not even know who she was and yet had dared to stir the pot. Every notable person would need to consider the Riddle family's prestige, as well as the influence of the Fire Crest. Therefore, she was not afraid at all. Moreover, none of them knew the law, while she did. Thus, even

if Norah attempted to distort the facts, it would be an exercise in futility.

"Come, let's go home. The truth will reveal itself there." Nicole said as she got into the car first.

Seeing Nicole's attitude, both Samuel and Spencer inexplicably found a sliver of confidence within.

‘If Nicole's not afraid, we have no reason to be either!' they thought.

The three then got into the car, and their chauffeur quickly drove them back to the Riddle family's residence.

Upon entering the house, the first thing Nicole heard was Norah's cry. "She's not back even at this hour, she must be afraid! You cannot just sit by after what she did to my arm!"

This was the first time she heard Norah throwing such a tantrum at the Riddle's residence, and it looked like she was going all out.

Nicole sneered as she walked in. “What's the talk about me not daring to come back home?"

The instant she heard Nicole's voice, Norah's body instinctively trembled.

She subconsciously turned her head around, thinking she would catch sight of Nicole's look of fear due to her calling the police.

However, what Norah saw was an expression of nonchalance with an added sneer on it.

"Norah, I totally did not expect this. Was the lesson in the morning not enough? And now you're here causing a ruckus at my home?" Nicole said.

The words 'my home' stabbed deep into Norah's heart.

‘This was originally my home! If Nicole hadn't returned, I would've been the daughter of the Riddle family, living worry- free for the rest of my life! It's all because of Nicole! She's the one who took everything away from me! She took the life that was originally mine!’ Norah raged.

Chapter 1592

With that in mind, Norah's fear quickly dissipated, replaced by nothing but roiling hatred.

The Riddle family had left her in a hotel, having no longer cared about her. She was left with no one now. However, even if she could not return to the Riddle residence as a family member anymore, she was determined to extract a king's bounty from them before she left.

Mustering her courage, Norah stood up as she tried to find the ferocity that she had displayed earlier. "Why wouldn't I dare? You broke my wrist at the school entrance, and many had caught that on tape! I've called a lawyer over and if this is not settled to my satisfaction by today, prepare for it to go viral tomorrow!"

She had concluded that the Riddles would not want to cause a massive scene, due to how much they cared about their reputation, regardless of who was the more culpable party in that fracas back at the school.

Having seen through Norah's intentions, Nicole smirked.

Glancing at the lawyer whom Norah had brought with her, Nicole's lips lifted smugly. “Is that so? I see you've brought a lawyer here too, haven't you? Did your lawyer know that you were the one who struck first, and that there's a wound on my brother's hand as proof of that!?

The moment Nicole had uttered those words, Gloria, who was worried about Nicole, became even more anxious." What happened? Did Samuel and Spencer get hurt as well?"

Norah's wrist had already been tended to, but the plaster cast over her hand was shocking enough for her. When she thought of the wound on her son's arm, her heart bled.

Hearing that, Samuel immediately stepped aside. “I'm fine. Mom. Just a small cut. Nicole has already stitched the wound up."

"Stitched the wound up? How big of a cut was that to need sutures?” Gloria's eyes reddened.

She had never thought that the daughter she had raised for so many years, the obedient girl in the Riddle's residence many years back, would do something like that to the men whom she used to call brothers.

‘She had broken her own wrist and Samuel got wounded as well?’ Gloria wondered.

Although Nicole pitied Gloria, she could no longer bother to hold back due to the sorry state of affairs; she had to make Gloria witness Norah's true colors. "Norah wanted to stab me with a knife, and Samuel got hurt trying to protect me. The wound took four whole stitches to have it sewn shut."

"How... could that be..." Gloria buried her mouth in her hands.

Daniel looked at Norah once again, and his eyes, which initially had traces of guilt in it, darkened. “I knew it. Nicole would not break your wrist for no reason. How could you do that to Samuel? He was your brother!"

As he had already had it up to here with Norah, Daniel flew off the handle, for he was utterly disappointed in Norah.

Noticing that the parents who had once doted on her now glaring at her with looks of disappointment and hatred, Norah finally lost it.

"You're now telling me that we were once family? What of it when my parents died? You people left me in a hotel and had no plans to take me back in! If it weren't for that cold shoulder you've given me, I wouldn't have been forced to stop them at the entrance of the school!

Norah's eyes reddened as she howled with her fists clenched, angrily chastising Daniel and Gloria's attitude of indifference toward her.

Unable to just stand and watch anymore, Steve stepped forward and bellowed, "Is it our fault that your parents died? Not too long ago, we've done all we could to help you find your parents, and here you are, being an ungrateful twat!"

Norah then turned to Steve as she sneered, her expression becoming menacing as she wailed, "What? Am I supposed to thank you for finding my biological parents? It looks more to me like you people couldn't wait to get rid of me. It's a sham that you helped me look for my parents! Don't you go around pretending to be some saint!"

Gloria had never thought that a daughter she had raised would turn out to be the way she was today; to think that she was that ungrateful, to think that she harbored such hatred toward them.

Unable to stomach the abuse any longer, Gloria raised her hand and slapped Norah. “Norah, you disappoint me!"

Norah was stunned. The last thing she had expected was for a meek character like Gloria to actually hit her. There, the hatred in her heart churned and swelled even more violently.

However, everyone who saw the slap knew that, although Gloria had slapped Norah, she had not used any force at all.

Chapter 1593

That slap however caused Norah to shoot Gloria a maniacal glare. "Since I'm no longer a member of the Riddle family, what right you have to hit me? Tell me, what right do you have?"

As she said that, Norah raised her hand to shove Gloria in retaliation.

Nicole reacted quickly, and just as Norah was about to strike, she twisted her other arm and pressed it against the latter's back, causing Norah to double over before everyone around her.

“Let me go, damn you!” Norah thrashed around in a frenzy, but as her other arm was broken, she was totally helpless.

Watching as Nicole subdued Norah, both Samuel and Spencer felt that her movements were too well tactical and precise, like a police officer restraining a criminal.

"You think I'll still allow you to hurt my family?" Nicole questioned, whereupon a crack was heard.

Nicole exerted more force, causing Norah to feel a sharp pain on her shoulder.

"You... Let me go!" The pain of having her wrist broken by Nicole was still fresh in her mind as Norah struggled in terror.

Yet, as Nicole held her down in place, she could only looked at her lawyer who was left perplexed. “Damn you! What are you standing there for? Help me out!"

"Ah? Oh...” The lawyer sprang to his feet in shock.

Then, Norah suddenly thought of an idea. "Record this! Record this entire thing as evidence! I want to sue the Riddle family to bankruptcy for doing this to me!"

As soon as everyone heard Norah's maddening ramble, a sense of iciness descended upon the room.

At this same moment however, Nicole sneered. "No need for that. Just call the police. We're also about to call the cops to arrest a murderer!"

The instant the word, 'murderer', came out of Nicole's mouth, Norah was startled.

Sensing the fear and astonishment in Norah, Nicole's eyes dimmed as she pushed forward with force, causing Norah to crash onto the ground. She fell over beside where the lawyer stood, causing the latter to take a reflexive step backward.

Norah sat up with her hair totally frizzled and wild as she turned and looked at Nicole. "Nonsense! There's no murderer here. If there's anyone who should be calling the calling the police, it's ME!"

Nicole gave Norah a condescending look as she took her phone out and flashed her call log to Norah.

In a single glance, Norah became stunned as the call log was lined full of her own phone calls. From the time stamp, it could be seen that those calls were made before her parents set off for the island.

At that moment, her face turned pale.

Noticing Norah's reaction, Sean glanced at Nicole's phone as he quizzically asked, "Whose call recording is that?"

Nicole looked at her parents and back at Norah before saying, "These are the call records of Norah's father. As you can see, they were talking to her before tragedy struck.”

As they heard what Nicole was saying, Daniel and Gloria looked at each other, feeling that something was not right. Samuel and Spencer, on the other hand, immediately understood what Nicole had

meant. She had told them that there was something strange with the circumstances surrounding the death of Norah's parents’.

Now that a recording had been procured, Norah must have been played a role in their demise.

 

Chapter 1594

In spite of the fact that there was already proof, Norah still tried to talk her way out of her predicament. "It's just a call log. It doesn't prove anything! Don't you try to change the topic, I'm not here to listen to your hogwash!"

Even as Norah attempted to regain the upper hand, the Riddles were no fools.

Sean coldly whipped his phone out and called the police.” Hello, 911..."

Achill radiated across Norah's heart at that instant as she glared at Nicole. "Even if you do not wish to compensate me, you don't need to besmirch me like this!"

“Compensation? You still have the nerve to ask for compensation?” Nicole sneered as she mocked Norah. "Do you think the Riddle family is some pushover? Fine! Since gratitude is a foreign concept to you, don't blame me for what I'm about to do today, Norah. I'll make you spit out every single penny that you've taken from Mom back then."

Norah instantly panicked, struggling to maintain her composure as she hissed, "Fine... You don't want to pay up, huh?! In that case, we'll meet in court! Let's go, Mr. Mack!"

Ignoring the pain on her knees, Norah forced herself up and turned around to leave.

Before she could, however, Nicole stood in her path, blocking her. “Oh, thinking of leaving, are you? Too late. You won't be going back to the hotel we've arranged for you. A person like you are only fit to be...in prison!"

"Nicole!!" Norah released a hysterical scream, having lost it." Don't you spout another word of nonsense! I’m not a fool! What can a call log even prove?!"

Seeing that Norah still refused to give up, Nicole sneered." Of course, a call log can't prove anything, but your father had accidentally pressed on the record button before he died. Want to hear the recording?"

The smile on Nicole’s face was cold, confident, and malicious, shattering everything that Norah had in her world of make-believe, and before Norah could even protest, Nicole had already clicked on the recording and played it in front of everyone.

Then, Norah's voice immediately emanated from the phone's speakers. "Mom, Dad... when are you coming to the island? I'm in trouble! I need you to save me!"

"Norah, there's a storm coming and there are no boats! Quick, find yourself a shelter first!" her parents yelled.

"Buy one then! You won't be able to see me again otherwise..." Norah cried, as if she had run into danger.

As soon as Norah's parents had heard that, they panicked, and after comforting her for a bit, they gritted their teeth and agreed.

"Wait for us Norah. We'll come and save you right now! Dad will definitely be by your side today!"

After that, the call ended.

Upon hearing that, a realization dawned upon everyone present in the house.

Sean's eyes became downcast as he said, “It was not an accident at all. lt was Norah who insisted on them going out to sea during a storm..."

Those words instantly cleared all the doubts they had in mind.

In addition, they had left Gloria utterly stunned. “Impossible. They are Norah's birth parents.”

She then looked at Norah in shock and disbelief. ‘What kind of daughter would she need to be to force her parents to go out to sea during a storm onto the island to look for her?’

However, even under such scrutiny, Norah still attempted to lie her way out. "I did not! I... really ran into trouble! I was robbed! That's why I begged them to save me!"

"You're still trying to lie your way out at this juncture?” Nicole looked at Norah, feeling that the latter was an utter dunce for the first time.

If she could find Norah's call records, as well as the call records in the waterlogged phone of her deceased father, what made Norah think that she would not be able to find out if she was really being robbed?

Norah glared at Nicole, and upon witnessing the glint of confidence in the latter's eyes, a sense of foreboding began to swell within her.

Chapter 1595

And surely enough, Nicole pulled another recording out.

"Norah was acting strange that day and was hiding in the hotel all day long. She was calling someone, asking them to look for her. Then, I heard news of her parent's death at sea. It’s so scary.”

That sentence caused Norah to despair at once.

That sentence caused Norah to despair at once.

‘Shit!’ Norah panicked, as she had never thought that Nicole could get the testimony of her classmates. 'She was prepared! That was why she could come home so confidently, and even asked her family to call the police!’

It was then that the Riddle family became aware of Norah's true colors.

Gloria turned to Norah and felt that she was looking at a terrifying monster. She was just a young woman, and yet, she had done something so despicable toward her own biological parents.

On the other hand, Sean, Steve, and the others looked at her with a look of hatred and disgust.

‘Is she that little sister we had back then?’

‘Was her cute and kind nature all an act?’

‘It's terrifying to have a little sister like this!’

At this moment, the butler walked in. "Sir, Madam? The district police is here.”

The second she heard that the police were here, Norah trembled in terror. With the evidence presented before her, she knew that this was a one-way ticket into prison, so she bit her lips and started begging for mercy.

‘No! I don't want to meet the cops! Mom... Dad... You won't see me go to jail, won't you?” she wailed.

"We are not your mom and dad!” Daniel yelled.

‘She had just severed the very last vestiges of ties with the Riddle family, and now, she is calling them Mom and Dad again! Disgusting, truly disgusting!’

When she saw that Daniel was giving her the cold shoulder, Norah turned to grovel before her brothers. "Sean, Steve, Stanley, Spencer, Samuel, anyone of you! Please, don't let me go to jail. I'm your little sister. We've been together for so long now...”

Sean and Steve responded with looks of disgust in their eyes, while Stanley, Soencer and Samuel bore looks of disappointment.

They had never thought that Norah was a figure of pure wickedness who would still have the cheek to call herself their little sister. At this point, they could only wish that everything that happened in the past was nothing but a nightmare.

"Norah, you brought all this upon yourself. Now, bear the consequences of your own action,” Sean said icily, with nary a hint of pity.

Once those were uttered, Norah became deflated, bereft of any hope and life left within her. All she did was watch as the police who were brought in approached her.

Then, she burst out into a sudden and maniacal laughing fit." Fine, fine. You Riddles are sure in the business of being fond of the new and tire of the old, huh. Now you have a new daughter, you cast me

aside like I'm a torn sock!"

Stanley frowned. "Since when have we ever done that? We've done our part for you. We've sent you back to your parents, given you enough money for you to live in comfort for the rest of your life, and yet, all of our love and effort had gone toward a wretched ingrate!"

As Stanley said that, Sean's eyes darkened. “And don't think I don't know what you were secretly doing toward Nicole back then at home and at school. It was just that Nicole had kept everything under wraps."

The moment those words were uttered, everyone was stunned.

Then, Nicole looked at Sean with her eyes slightly narrowed.’ Could it be that Sean knew everything that Norah had done?’

Sean darted Nicole a glance, a fleeting glint of distress flashing in his eyes for a moment. "I've been protecting Nicole in secret, but she had always managed to deal with all of the problems, so much so that it boggles me.

However, Norah had always been targeting Nicole, and had done a lot of things to cause misunderstandings between Mom and her."
