Ch. 2346..2350: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 2346-2350

Chapter 2346

“You’ve been pretty busy with work. Did something happen at the company?” Nicole asked out of concern.

Seeing that Jared had been working extra hours over the past few days, Nicole could not help but worry.

“We’re preparing for a bidding and the timeline is pretty tight. So I had to work extra hours these days,” Jared explained in a gentle tone. He engulfed Nicole in his embrace.

Nicole relaxed. “I see. Luckily, there isn’t any problem with the company.”

“If I could gain some care and attention from you, it wouldn’t be a bad thing for the company to have some problems too. ” Jared smirked.

Annoyed, Nicole rolled her eyes. “Hey, don’t ask for it.”

Who on Earth would think that a problem is a good thing?’ she thought.

Jared gently stroked Nicole’s hair and said, “Alright, I’ll listen. Nothing will happen.”

After that, Jared lowered his head and kissed Nicole on the lips.

Meanwhile, after he left the Riddle’s, Lawrence headed back to his villa.

There, Ian gave him a report in a low voice. “Sir, Ms. Nicole brought Ms. Lulu along when she met with Mr. Ellison. I’ve looked into it, and it seems that Ms. Nicole hasn’t regained her memory. The reason for her sudden visit was most probably Harvey.”

“Alright,” Lawrence replied. After meeting with Nicole, he felt that he might have been overthinking things.

“As for Harvey, he has gotten the news but has yet to make a move. I’m guessing he’s waiting for the results from DillCorp,” Ian continued.

“Ignore that. They’re just fighting each other,” Lawrence said coldly.

Because of Nicole, Lawrence paid attention to the happenings in DillCorp. However, it did not pique his interest at all. So, he did not want to get involved in their feud. After all, they were no match for Nicole.

Nicole had definitely surprised Lawrence once she returned to San Joto. She had the guts to take over the Riddle Corporation’s headquarters even without regaining her memory. On top of that, she also helped the company grow. As for the rest of the Riddle family, they were lackluster in terms of managing a business. The only thing they were good at was stabbing people in the back.

“Noted.” Then, Ian carefully questioned again, “Sir, about the Crest…”

“I didn’t get a chance to find out about it today. I’ll find another chance next time.” When he went over to the Riddle family’s house, he was stuck in the living room. After Jared returned, he did not have a chance to dig any information out.

The only way for him was to find another chance to visit again. It would be ideal if he could get into Nolan’s room.

Lawrence knew that there was a computer in Nolan’s room. Although Nolan was the only one using it, Lawrence had found some internet records tracing back to that computer. So, that computer might contain the information he had been looking for.

“It’s quite challenging.” Ian was not enthusiastic about it. This was already a dangerous thing, and an opportunity to visit the house would not come by easily.

“Even if it’s challenging, we have to do it.” Lawrence’s eyes turned dark. He was determined to get whatever he wanted.

“Yes, sir,” Ian replied respectfully.

They had planned this for a long time. So, there was no way they would accept defeat. The consequences were clear as day if they lost.

Lawrence leaned on the car seat with an evil look in his eyes. It seemed as if he was planning something in his head.

The sun was now shining brightly, and the breeze was blowing gently.

In the chairman’s office in Riddle Corporation Headquarters, Lulu was carrying a stack of documents in her hands as she entered the office. After she placed it on Nicole’s desk, she whispered, “Have you heard the news? DillCorp is in trouble.”

“I haven’t heard.” Nicole raised an eyebrow calmly and made a guess, “Has Raine made a move?”

Chapter 2347

“Yeah. Who would’ve thought the biological sisters would go against each other over greed. And a merciless fight, at that.” Lulu’s lips twitched, her face showing a disdainful look.

“Fill me in.” Nicole leaned on her seat and smiled as she waited for Lulu to explain.

“It’s unbelievable. Did you know? Snow betrayed DillCorpjustto get married into the Ellison family. Snow secretly signed an agreement with Harvey, and she basically sold off the whole company to him. Thank God you arranged someone to secretly hint Raine about the matter. That was how Raine managed to save DillCorp at the very last minute. I’m telling you…”

Nicole narrowed her eyes and spoke in a cold tone, “It’s been so many years, and yet she’s still this naive.” ‘Did Snow really think that as long as she agrees to all of Harvey’s requests, he would marry her?’ Nicole thought.

Lulu nodded in agreement. “I know, right? At least Raine has shown some improvement. Why is Snow acting so stupid?” “Raine also did the same for James.’ Nicole’s gaze darkened. If it were not for James, Raine would not have this level of IQ.

Lulu nodded aggressively again. “You’re right! As for James, Raine also brought it upon herself.”

At the thought of all the bad things James had done, Lulu gritted her teeth.1 We really can’t judge a book by its cover. We always thought that Raine had married a good-for-nothing outcast from a lower- class family. But now, it seems like James was never actually stupid.’ “Now, Raine has to rely on James. Naturally, she won’t notice any odd behavior from him.” From the looks of it, Raine would be more and more dependent on James. After all, Raine was not a calculative person.

Tm afraid she won’t realize it as a weird thing even when someone points it out to her. With a few words from James, Raine might even turn around and blame anyone who tries to warn her. In the end, everyone else will be the bad guy.” “You seem to know her very well.” Nicole’s gaze was cold.

If anyone were to tell Raine that James had an affair, Raine would get angry at that person or even think that they were trying to stir things up between the couple.

Lulu shrugged her shoulders. “Well, I’ve known her for many years now.”

A crossed look appeared in Nicole’s eyes. “These are their private matters.

What I’m worried about is that James’ targets aren’t these things.” “That’s impossible! What else would he be targeting?” Lulu blinked her eyes in shock. James had helped Raine own DillCorp. Not only that, Raine was very dependent on him as well. In other words, the power is in his hands.

Nicole narrowed her eyes again and spoke solemnly, “Not all humans can resist the temptation of power.”

No matter how much faith Raine had on James, it would never compare to having the power in one’s own hands. Not to mention, James was not loving toward Raine anymore. Or perhaps, one should say that he had never loved Raine from the start.

“What you said makes sense.” A burdened look appeared on Lulu’s face.

Everyone knew very well the kind of person James was. Just like before, how would he easily let go of his goal? No one knew what the end result would be.

The atmosphere in the office became heavy instantly. The air felt dense.

KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK.

After a few knocks came from the door, a slight opening formed in between. Steve peeked in and said, “Have you heard?”

Chapter 2348

Nicole looked over at the new visitor and asked in a soft voice, “About what happened in DillCorp?” “Yeah.” Steve opened the door and entered.

Nicole nodded lightly. “I’ve gotten an idea of what happened. I’m just worried about Harvey and Everett.” “Don’t worry.” Steve smiled and continued, “Uncle Dillon isnt that slow.

Now that this matter has been exposed, he’ll know what to do.” “Is he capable?” Nicole frowned. She had always thought that Uncle Dillon’s management skills were mediocre. However, he was good at cheating people. Would he be good enough to face someone as powerful as Harvey?

“If he can’t, then there’s nothing much we can do. After all, there’s no way out of this.” From Steve’s tone, he did not seem to be worried at all. In fact, he seemed to be enjoying the drama.

Nicole bit her lip and thought, ‘That’s true. Uncle Dillon doesn’t have a way out of this anymore. The only thing left is for him to fight with all his might.’

To add on, James was still involved. He would never let the company fall after building the company to where it was. From the looks of it, there was still a chance of winning.

Nicole heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. “Well, we’ll leave it to them then.

As long as they did not lose DillCorp, Nicole would just be a bystander. After all, she still saw those things as the Riddle family’s belongings.

If Dillon could handle it, Nicole would not spend her time and effort on them. If they could not handle it, she vowed to take it back on behalf of her grandpa. He would never let any of the Riddle Corporation’s business fall into anyone outside of the Riddle family.

As for Everett, even though he was greedy, Nicole would never give him a chance to gain anything.

“I guess we shall sit and wait,” said Lulu. The situation at the moment was unclear, the only thing they could do was watch from afar.

Nicole nodded. “Send some people to monitor closely.” “Don’t worry.” Lulu assured Nicole with a serious look.

After she finished speaking, Lulu turned around and left. Steve glanced at Nicole and was hesitant to speak.

“Steve, is there anything else?” Nicole was confused.

“Ever since the incident, Snow had been missing. No one knows where she went. She wouldn’t do anything to harm herself, right?” Steve was a little worried.

“She wouldn’t dare.” Nicole felt that Snow would only put the blame on others. She would never realize her stupidity and idiotic side.

“If that’s the case, where would she be now?” Steve’s eyes darkened.

Nicole narrowed her eyes and said, “What are you worried about?” “Initially, I was worried she might not be able to handle the truth. After all, this is the second time she would be getting rejected by Harvey. One could imagine how sad she would feel. But since you said she isn’t that daring, I’m now worried she might try to take her revenge on Harvey,” Steve said, as his analysis.

Since she was not daring enough to hurt herself, she might hurt others instead. There was no way she would keep quiet and act as if nothing happened.

“That’s possible.’ Nicole sighed. If Snow were to tolerate this incident again, Snow’s love for Harvey was truly blind.

Chapter 2349

Steve noticed Nicole had no interest in Snow’s affairs. “I’ll leave now if there’s nothing else.” “Okay.”

Once after Steve had left, Nicole leaned into her seat, deep in thought.

‘The situation now in DillCorp is much more progressive than I anticipated.

Things are still within my control. I’ll ignore this for the time being.’

Meanwhile at DillCorp, the atmosphere in Dillon’s room was immensely tense.

“Dad. We still have to find a way to save this,” Raine persuaded in a low voice.

“Do you think I’m not trying to?” Dillon gritted his teeth.

‘Our plan to takeover had really backfired. The initial plan to marry into the Ellison family went down the drain. Who knew that darn Harvey had tricks up his sleeve. We almost lost our entire company!

‘Snow, this damn moron! She really thought someone like her could marry someone like him! If she had realized his ulterior motives sooner, we wouldn’t be in this situation!’ “Dad, can we put this matter aside and solve what’s important? Harvey won’t leave our company alone. We can chit chat about those later when we settle our company’s affairs.” James butted in, showing his dedication toward DillCorp.

Dillon raised his eyebrow at James. “Tell me. What plans do you have in mind?”

Previously, James had partook in influencing Raine’s decisions. Otherwise the company before. Up until now, Dillon had not paid much attention to James.

James took a glance at Raine before speaking. “I think Ellison’s plan is to take over our company. I don’t think he’ll be the one who will take US down in one shot. We might still get a chance to fight

back.” “Go on.” Dillon frowned slightly as he ushered James to continue. His expression became serious.

“What I meant to say was, if Harvey really wants US to be broke, we need Raine to transfer away some of the company’s assets, otherwise when he takes over, we’d be left with nothing. We just need to make sure that it seems like we have transferred our assets back, to make them have the impression that we have let our guard down…”

When Harvey takes over the company, he would realize that nothing was left, and the entire company would be useless.

Dillon was silent, a serious look on his face as he carefully analyzed what James had said.

“Dad, I think we can trust James’s idea. If it weren’t for him, we’d be left with nothing.”

Raine spoke up trying to persuade after realizing her father was not speaking.

James nudged Raine. “Don’t be hasty. Let your father think things through.

We’ll execute it with careful considerations.”

Raine immediately shut up and looked at her father. She was very anxious as she waited patiently for Dillon to speak up.

Dillon finally managed to speak up after a while. “Okay, let’s do it like this.

However…” “However?” Raine anxiously pressed.

“However, it’s not an easy task for US to accomplish, let alone secretly,” Dillon said with a hint of uncertainty in his voice.

“If Harvey doesn’t give up, he’ll certainly pay more attention to our company. Our plan seems to be pretty solid, yet if we were ever to be found out is another story.’ “What do you think?” James asked softly.

Dillon looked at James, before hesitating, gritting his teeth. “I’ll leave this matter to you.”

Chapter 2350

“Me?!” James’ eyes bulged out. He had not seen this coming.

“Yes. Since you’re not at the center of attention, leaving this job to you should be better. It’d be difficult for anyone to find out.”

It was there and then that Dillon realized the use of James in the family after Preston refused to join Dill Corp and with Snow being a complete idiot being head over heels with someone out of her league. Raine was Dillon’s last and only hope to continue the company.

‘If James could help, it would be better than doing this alone.’

Raine did not give James any time to consider. She quickly agreed on his behalf. Ì think it’s doable.”

Raine knew that if this matter were to be left in James’ hands, it would be much better. After all, the future of the company would be in their hands.

James gave a look of satisfaction to Raine. He could only nod along with Raine’s decision, to move on without arousing suspicion.

“In that case, I’ll leave this to you. DillCorp’s future will be in your hands. When I retire, I can safely entrust this to you two.” Dillon nodded as if he trusted them both.

“Don’t worry about it. We’ll make sure everything works out just fine.’ Raine and James nodded simultaneously.

“If you have anything, just tell US. We’ll do our best to get it done.”

Dillon nodded his head in agreement. “Let’s do this one by one. Let’s save the company first before we expand for the future.”

Raine and James synchronized with one another, replying, “Okay.”

Both left the room shortly after. Raine turned to look at James with a smile I “We’re so lucky to have you. Now that we have his trust, the future of DillCorp will be in our hands.” “I believe we can do it. It’s all thanks to your hard work!” James looked at Raine dotingly.

Raine smiled shyly, ‘It’s all your hard work too.’ “You can do well even with or without me,’ said James modestly.

Flirtatiously, Raine said, “No. We’re a team and we’ll be together, always.”

Raine did not like James before. However now that she had seen how useful James was, it had become an asset to her. Her ultimate secret weapon.

James nodded happily.

Raine smiled as she walked toward her office. On the side she did not realize James’ expression had changed. A look of disgust appeared on his face.

‘When I get my hands on everything, I can do whatever I like. I can ditch this bitch once and for all,’ thought James to himself.

As the sun was setting, the slanting rays of the sun gave a warm orange tinge to the sky. The streets were bustling with people rushing to get home after work.

Nicole had just walked out of the office building when she saw Lulu standing on the curb of the road, anxiety was written all over her face.

“Lulu, why haven’t you left?’ Nicole called out to Lulu.

“Spencer hasn’t arrived yet. I tried calling his phone but there was no answer.” Lulu sighed. She kept glancing at the busy road to catch a glimpse of Spencer, her eyes were full of worry.

Spencer had promised to pick her up from work. However, Lulu had been waiting for him for a while now. He had not arrived and was unreachable.

‘Did something happen to him?’ thought Lulu.

Nicole frowned. ‘I don’t think him being held back by something would cause him to be unreachable.’
