Ch. 1736..1740: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 1736-1740

Chapter 1736

"Who knows..."

Sean took a deep breath.

"But it's an honor to have a sister such as herself."

"Yeah, that's true"

Steve smiled and said with a sigh of relief.

"I wish to head home and get some rest too.I believe things will go smoothly from here on out."

"Yeah, it will be."

Sean smiled as he walked out alongside Steve.

In the meantime, Samuel and Spencer had heard Nicole's voice echoing from upstairs, only to find Sean and Steve walking out.

"How was it? Sean? Steve?" they asked.

"Nicole should never be underestimated!"

The looks on the faces of the brothers were to be expected, as they had hoped to get the scoop on everything that had happened.

Steve could not help himself from shooting a glance at Sean as he put on a show of deliberate vagueness in front of both Samuel and Spencer.

"She's really brilliant! The problem was a piece of cake.You two don't have to worry about anything."

"How did you solve it? Tell me everything about it!"

Samuel bombarded, as he really wanted to hear about the details.

"It was nothing, you won't even understand what we did even if we tell you about it.Let's go."

Steve said while hooking his arm around Samuel's shoulders, leading them toward their rooms.

"No! I want to hear it!"

Samuel yelled, struggling under Steve's grasp.

Meanwhile, Spencer looked at Sean.

"Sean...are you also planning not to tell me?"

Sean smiled, "There's really nothing much to tell, honestly."

Nicole herself had not talked much about her own identity, and thus, she had not truly given Sean the right to tell others about it, especially to Samuel and Spencer, who were known to gossip around, and who might leak valuable information to others.

"Alright then, I won't waste my time.I'll ask her myself."

As soon as the words had left his mouth, Spencer walked away with a look of disappointment.

Sean then returned back to his room with a smile on his face.

Nicole, on the other hand, was already back in her room, ready to take a shower.

Soon after, Nicole stepped out of the shower, whereupon her phone beeped.

It was a text message from Anna.

(The crew has found out some hints, they are due to return tomorrow.)

(OK.] Nicole replied, but before she was able to put her phone down, her phone suddenly rang.

It was a call from Lloyd.

"Nicole, how...um, have you been resting well?"

Lloyd was surprised for a moment there when Nicole answered his call.He did not expect Nicole to answer his call so instantaneously.

"I'm great, have you found out much about the matter?" Nicole raised her eyebrows.

Lloyd nodded his head.

"Yeah, we've discovered the truth.I'll bring that perpetrator over when you come back tomorrow, so that they can apologize to you in person."

"Okay."

Nicole nodded.

'It was good that things played out the way I wanted them to be.I don't want Jared to get all worried about me"

The phone call dropped into a dead silence with Lloyd not uttering a word.

This prompted Nicole to speak up.

"Is there anything else you need?"

"No...I'm just worried about you.Don't worry about the follow up scenes.I will definitely conduct an on- site inspection," Lloyd said in an attempt to reassure Nicole.

"No worries. I'm not some princess who can't handle some hiccups here and there.There are things that we can and cannot control," she replied.

Nicole was clear about her motives when she asserted that she did not require anyone's protection or owe anyone favors.

"Okay then...get it.Good night." Lloyd said.

He was reluctant to hang up, but he could not think of any other topic about which he could converse anymore.

"Yeah, you too."

Nicole nodded and hung up.She then laid down on her bed and sent Jared a message.

'He seems to be very busy today.He hasn't gotten back to me even after I've sent him two texts in a row.."

Nicole thought, after which she turned her phone off and went to sleep.

Meanwhile, the party had come to an end as Jared walked out of it to see that Nicole had sent him texts that left him grinning from ear to ear.

‘Wow, now this is progress.Her taking the initiative to speak to me.Without thinking twice, he then called Nicole.

 

Chapter 1737

"The number you dialed is unreachable..."

Jared's smile froze and his heart plummeted.

'This woman knows that I've missed her, and yet she does this to me by turning off her phone"

Jared hung up, feeling depressed, and whispered, "I'll deal with you tomorrow..."

The next day, Raine and Snow's dismissal from the school caused a ruckus.

The two 'IT' girls, as it seemed, had gotten expelled with such relative ease at the start of the semester that Dillon's family had become the laughingstock.

With Snow's dismissal from Royal Creek completed, he did not even have the guts to show up in person.

Nicole knew that both of their knees had not healed due to all the kneeling they had to do to beg for forgiveness, and that they would not be appearing in public anymore.

Otherwise, judging from Karen's brash and ruthless personality, she would make a beeline for Nicole in an attempt to start a fight with her.

Royal Creed without both Raine and Snow was eerily silent, and this made Nicole extremely content.

However, the only thing that was making her a little unhappy was Jared.

‘Today's another regular meeting at the student union to discuss the school's celebration"

Nicole checked the details of the school celebration carefully, noticing that their celebration was different from their centennial celebration that had previously been held at their school's founding celebration last semester.

'This celebration seems to be more akin to a campus funfair in that it's open to the public.Each class would have to contribute to the activities to rake some profits in"

Nicole had her fair share of school festivals and funfairs in Janlizeka before, and thus, she had no such desire for an open school celebration.She really wanted nothing to do with the event and above that, she wanted nothing to do with Harvey.

However, as soon as she noted that Harvey was overseeing the student council meeting and was talking freely from his seat, Nicole was instantly displeased.She suppressed her impatience and listened on; not expecting Harvey to suddenly call her name.

"I don't know, perhaps the president of the student council would like to give her input for the ideas I've suggested to the classes?" he asked.

Nicole glanced at Harvey.

'All his ideas are worthless and plagiarizing.He's blatantly copying ideas from the Japanese schools"

"It's completely up to you.I'll leave this matter for the vice president to handle"

In response, Harvey smirked.

"The president here seems to have agreed with the things I have said earlier, right?" Nicole raised her eyebrows.

In truth, she had not paid any attention to what he had said earlier.

Because of this, he absentmindedly replied, "Yeah."

Noticing that Nicole had given him a response, he immediately smiled.

"Alright then.The Royal Creed department will be handed over to Preston and Edwin whereas the student union committee members will take charge of implementing these projects. n.ovelebook The president, Nicole, who just started her role.She and I will be working together as we overlook the projects for each class," he announced.

As soon as the words were said, Nicole was stunned.

'Damn it! When did Harvey even mention that he would be in the same group as me?! Harvey grinned as he noticed Nicole's pale complexion.

"Since the president has personally agreed, everything's settled.Let's end the meeting here."

Before Nicole could react, the meeting had ended.

Everyone in the meeting room stood up in pairs and trios, whereupon they left the room together.

Seeing that, Nicole could not resist herself from cursing out mentally.

'These b*stards! Don't they know who the president is!? I've not even dismissed this meeting and they've all left! All of this is the fault of that damned Harvey! If it's not for his grandfather, and his status as vice president, nobody would even listen to what he has to say!' Nicole was helpless.She did not want to interact with Harvey, and so, she walked out with her notebook in her hands.

Harvey followed behind with a smile.

"Wow, I really did not expect you to agree to be in the same group as me."

Chapter 1738

Unwilling to bother with Harvey, Nicole said, "I've never intended to be in the same group as you.I didn't catch what you said earlier."

'This vile person knew that I had not heard him at all" she thought.

"It doesn't matter anyway since we're both the president and vice president.It's expected that we are both to handle the school affairs together.You ought to start getting used to it."

Harvey said with a smile, and emphasized the last few words.

Nicole glared at him, "It seems to me that you do not remember anything that had happened last time."

‘I was a little too easy on him" she thought.

Harvey smirked before giving her an arrogant smile.

"Enough.I've suffered enough, so much so that I've been left limping for two days.I couldn't even give him a proper answer when my grandpa asked me what had happened!"

Harvey's eyes were brimming with diabolical intentions when Nicole noticed that he was using his grandfather as a shield.

"Don't think that you'll be able to weasel your way out, even if you pull your grandfather's card."It was Mr.Ellison who had admitted Nicole into Royal Creed as a favor to her for having saved his life before this.Nicole was never indebted to anyone.

"Well then, spare me no mercy.In the worst-case scenario, you can just beat me to death, but as long as I am still alive and well, I'll not stop pestering you until the day I die!"

As Harvey was speaking, he inched closer to Nicole and caressed her hand.

Nicole immediately withdrew her hand in disgust, "Harvey! Are you crazy?"

Harvey looked at Nicole and smiled with his eyes, during which the atmosphere became a tad bit chilly.

"Yeah.Like I said before, I will make you mine at all costs..."

Nicole looked at him coldly.

"Do you think you'll ever succeed?"

Harvey flashed her a slight smile in response.

"It seems to me that you don't know me well enough.As for Jared? He'll soon become nothing."

Nicole's heart sank.

"What do you mean? What did you do to him?"

Harvey saw the tense expression on Nicole's face, and his heart felt like it had been stabbed a thousand times over, leaving it in a state of inexplicable pain.

"As expected, it is only Jared that could get you to react like this."

Harvey was still smiling but the curve on the corner of his mouth suddenly made his smile wicked.

Noticing his anger, Nicole bluntly said, "He's my fiancée.Of course I would care about him."

Though Harvey's heart was aching from those words, his eyes became determined.

"Okay, the more you care about him, the more determined I'll be to bring him down!" Nicole snorted coldly.

''I would like to see you try and we'll see who ends up losing!"

‘Jared is my man and not just some random dude who is easily replaceable.Harvey is too deluded if he thinks that I would sway" she fumed.

Harvey laughed at Nicole's reaction of disbelief.

"It's okay.You will know soon enough.However, the work here still needs to be done, n.ovelebookor are you afraid that you'll catch feelings after working long hours with me?"

All Harvey could ever envision day and night was the two of them getting along nicely.

He refused to believe that there was not one moment where Nicole was attracted to him.

Nicole on the other hand, was particularly determined.

"Sometimes I really admire your determination.Where did you get such a powerful imagination from? Even if you stand here buck naked in front of me, I would not even be tempted."

After uttering those words, Nicole spun around and left, leaving Harvey in a daze.

‘What did she just say? Even if I strip down naked, she won't be tempted? I can't believe it.Those words actually came out of her mouth!"

Unable to contain himself, he started laughing out of anger.

"It seems that Nicole really hates me, to the point she is able to say such things so casually.She must be really pissed" he surmised.

Chapter 1739

‘However, I still loved the way she had responded to me.Yes, I still love it, in spite of the fact that she's furious at me"

While he was thinking about this, he instinctively trailed behind Nicole once more.

He followed her around the campus, and even with her cold temperament, he still followed her around while giving her explanations about the school festivals.

When school was finally over, Nicole turned her phone on and gave Jared a call.

On the other end, Jared, who had waited for her call, answered it with displeasure in his voice.

"What why? I guess it's only now that you bother to return my call.Someone left me two messages last night and fell asleep without awaiting my reply," he said.

Nicole issued a sigh of relief as she heard his voice, and her heart calmed down almost immediately as she smiled.

"Why? Are you not happy?"

'This dude is getting more and more clingy, and he's getting better at teasing too" she thought.

"Of course.Back then, whenever I found myself unable to contact you, your phone would not even be switched off.I've waited the entire night for your reply," he responded.

‘Not bad" Nicole thought as she assessed her fiancé.

She then took a deep breath and said, "Alright, I won't turn off my phone at night from now on.I just didn't want others to interrupt my rest at night."

Nicole had hoped that she would be able to get a well-rested night without disruptions from others.

As for Jared, he became quiet as soon as he had heard Nicole's thoughts out loud.

He understood her perspective and where she was coming from.

"I understand now.Listen, I will get separate phones for us both, and we'll be the only ones to know about them."

Nicole felt butterflies in her stomach as she replied, "Okay!' It was only after Nicole had agreed that Jared felt better.

"How's your company these days? Have you encountered any problems?" Nicole asked, as she could not get Harvey's words out of her mind.

After all, Harvey was not the sort of person who would just bark, and not bite.

Jared was silent for a while as he realized that Nicole might have discovered something.He pondered for a while before responding with a smile.

"Yeah, everything's going well.There are some unscrupulous characters trying to pull some dirty tricks on me, but don't worry about them.Don't stress it though.I've come prepared."

Nicole immediately understood who Jared was mentioning about.

"That b*stard actually pulled some tricks on you! ?" she exclaimed.

"I should've beat him to pulp when I had the chance to.That scum really is asking for it," she seethed.

Jared smiled.

"Back at the Riddle banquet, what he said were not complete lies.I've been long prepared for things like these, so don't worry too much about it.n.ovelebookHe won't be able to lay a finger on me and on top of it all, he might help me make more money from it, inadvertently of course."

Jared's tone was filled with confidence, and this made Nicole feel relieved.

"Really?"

"Yeah, don't worry much about it, okay? Just worry about yourself.I'm concerned that he will stir some crap for you in school," he replied.

Nicole shook her head.

"He won't dare to.Mr.Ellison is still the principal of Royal Creed.He won't have the guts to cross me."

At this point, it was a certainty that Mr.Ellison would try his best not to offend her as she now had the Fire Crest in her possession.

"Though Harvey is not aware of who you really are and the many identities you hold, you ought to be careful about them."Jared was concerned that Harvey would be cornered by him, which would not bring any good for Nicole.

"It's okay, don't worry about it."

Nicole smiled and said in an attempt to reassure him.

"Do you want to have a date night?"

Jared looked at his watch, reckoning that he would be getting off work by seven.

In response, Nicole shook her head.

"Lloyd called me last night to tell me that we are going to start filming again tonight.He had already found the guy."

"Oh?"

Jared raised his eyebrows.

"He has really found the person who had done this? Legit?"

Jared had gotten Max to investigate.

However, there were no findings on his end.

It was truly sketchy to him that Lloyd had found the person before they even could.

"It doesn't matter.I should do the stuff I've promised sooner or later, don't you think? It's impossible to keep pushing this back," she said.

Indeed, Nicole had already foreseen it coming.

"But what's more is that, whether Lloyd is being truthful or not, only he himself would know about it.He wouldn't keep things like this from me."

 

Chapter 1740

"Okay, I'll go ahead and let Max know about this.He might've pushed this issue aside due to some individual pulling tricks on us for the past few days."

"Sure, I'll wait for your updates." Nicole nodded.

'Even if Lloyd had lied to me, I know that Jared will not ever lie.He would get to the bottom of the issue just to see if it's the same person"

"Well, that's good to hear.Since you're busy and can't have a date night today, we can arrange it for another night."

Jared took a deep breath; his tone filled with disappointment, and his heart filled with yearning for her.

"Okay." Nicole nodded again.

It was at this time that Nicole noticed the crew's car driving over.

Fortunately, Nicole had already informed Samuel and Spencer beforehand that they would not be going home together.

With that in mind, Nicole immediately hopped onto the van where Anna was sat.

"Shouldn't you be with Lloyd?" Nicole asked, feeling slightly surprised.

It was kind of rare for Anna to pick Nicole up, as she had only done so once before.

"Mr.Holder had asked me to come and pick you up personally today, as a token of his apology,"Anna said with a gentle smile on her face.

"He's really sorry for everything that had happened before."

Nicole withdrew her gaze and responded flatly, "It's actually nothing to be sorry about.I didn't get hurt or anything."

Nicole had not paid much attention to this matter before but for once, Jared was right.n.ovelebookShe ought to find out for herself who this person was, or else, they might continue to give Nicole hell in the foreseeable future.

"This is the crew's mistake, so it is only right that I must give you a proper explanation regarding this matter."

Anna nodded, before telling the chauffeur to drive.

Soon after, both Anna and Nicole arrived at the set.

Anna personally guided Nicole to the set before sending her to the dressing room to get ready.

"You should go ahead and get yourself ready.The person we've caught has yet to arrive.I'll bring him over later."

Anna whispered in Nicole's ear.

"Okay."

Nicole nodded, as she was not expecting Lloyd to personally arrest someone in front of her.

'This ought to be fun to witness" Nicole thought.

After 20 minutes, Nicole completed her makeup routine and walked out of the dressing room where most of the crew had already arrived.

Nicole then took a seat while going through the script.

Both Lloyd and Anna noticed that the time was getting nearer, and that was when the latter walked up to the middle of the set.

"About the prop car accident from before, we've discovered that someone had deliberately tampered with the brakes! Though the on-site surveillance cameras have been deactivated, we've examined the car and found the real culprit!" she announced.

As soon as the words left Anna's mouth, everyone on the set fell silent.

The manager who was standing next to Chloe was so frightened that he spilled Chloe's coffee.

"What are you doing!?"

Chloe yelled once she noticed the spilled coffee on the small table.Her manager hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Then, he hurriedly got paper towels and began to wipe the table down in fear that the coffee would drip onto Chloe's clothes.

Lloyd and Anna's eyes immediately dimmed as they watched the manager's flustered action.

Anna then stepped up and said, "You don't need to clean this up anymore.Follow me."

The manager, who was completely terrified, quickly looked up.

"No...It wasn't me!"
