Ch. 2401..2405: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 2401-2405

Chapter 2401

Nicole let out a sigh as she watched the twins walk into the kindergarten.

"When we were still on Crescent Island, they always envied other kids who were dropped off and picked up by their parents.Who knew that when we returned home, they'd get to experience it too!"

"Of course, it's different.They have a mommy and a daddy now.They have no need to envy other children."

Jared gently held Nicole in his arms as he comforted her.

Nicole glanced at the kindergarten once more.

The twins were holding their friends’ hands and playing happily.

Nicole unconsciously smiled.

‘Yeah, it does feel a little different from Crescent Island"

The car's engine revved up and they made their way to Riddle Corporation.

When they arrived, Nicole got out of the car and noticed Lulu running towards her.

Nicole smiled as she walked closer to Lulu.

Lulu bombarded her friend with questions.

"How was it? Did you find out what Everett did?"

Nicole smiled and shook her head.

"Let's go inside and talk."

‘This girl must've not slept at all" she thought.

The two women chatted as they got onto the elevator.

Lulu exclaimed loudly, "No fucking way! He's too cruel!"

Nicole shrugged.

"Anyhow, there's some evidence."

Nicole was unsure of what extent the credibility of the evidence was.She felt that it was not a matter of how cruel Dillon was, but more of how he could think of such things.

"I see Everett isn't backing down without a fight," Lulu said, pursing her lips.

She was impressed by how Everett had whipped out a piece of evidence from thin air just to disqualify Dillon from getting any of the family inheritance.

"I mean, they suffered quite a huge loss.But, from how they're at each other's necks, they probably won't even know if all of that was instigated by us," said Lulu.

‘These people were cunning and scheming, but they're still clueless of people calculating their every move.It would be exciting to see their faces when they find out" Nicole thought to herself.

Nicole and Lulu continued to chat as they made their way into the office.

Suddenly, Nicole turned around and looked at Lulu.

"There's something I need you to do."

"Sure.What is it?"

Lulu looked at Nicole cautiously.

Nicole handed the documents she had brought from the family manor.

"Find someone who can look into this.Make sure that no one gets suspicious."

Lulu nodded, her eyes serious.

"Okay."

‘If it weren't for the suspicion that arose when Dillon was thought to be a culprit, this investigation wouldn't have happened.No one would try to find out if there were more culprits behind this, thought Nicole.

Lulu stashed the document away.

"There's also DillCorp.It seems to me that they've gone fully independent from Riddle Corporation.From the looks of it, things aren't looking good for them."

Nicole's eyes darkened.

'I don't know what's in it for them to think they're able to handle this independently.DillCorp has been working closely with Riddle Corporation for so many years.I have no idea why out of the blue they switched to work with the Ellison Group.On top of that, they suffered a huge blow.I doubt they'll last"

"The next person we have to keep a close eye on is James Harlow," said Nicole.

Lulu's eyes widened.

"James? Is he good?"

A cold look flashed across Nicole's eyes.

"I believe that he's the only one in DillCorp that's more than capable of this."

Nicole knew that with the ongoing situation with DillCorp and the Riddle family, there was no way that James would be able to sit still and not show his true colors.

Lulu was worried.

"What about Everett and Harvey?"

Chapter 2402

"Don't worry about them for now," said Nicole.

"They'll most probably be in a mess for the next few days."

It was obvious that Harvey was not helping Everett this time around.

Nicole was a little curious as to whether the two of them would still collaborate in the future.

From the looks of it, Everett seemed to be obeying Harvey's orders.

However, Everett was not someone that easily manipulated.He had a mind of his own.

Perhaps Harvey could tell that Everett was just flattering him.

In fact, Everett was using Harvey's power.

Therefore, Harvey purposely agreed to Everett's request but did not bother about the matter.

Harvey wanted to use this incident as a warning to Everett. Nicole thought it would be weird if these two could succeed in collaborating.

Nonetheless, this was good news to her.Her mind at ease, Lulu then responded, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my desk."

"Alright, go ahead."

Nicole nodded, and Lulu turned around to leave the office.

Leaning on the chair, Nicole let out a sigh.She did not expect Everett to cause such a huge scene.

It was impossible for Dillon and his family to take full responsibility.

Meanwhile at DillCorp, Dillon seemed crossed as he gritted his teeth.

"Everett has really done it this time.I won't let him off easily this time!"

"Dad, what are you thinking of doing next?" James mumbled.

Although they managed to save the company, James clearly knew that Everett would not stop there.

So naturally, they would not sit back and innocently suffer.

If they did not work harder, they would lose everything on top of being disowned by the Riddle family.

"Hmph! I suspect that they're responsible for the title of the family manor.Get someone to investigate this,"

Dillon commanded angrily.

‘lf you want to be this cruel, don't blame me for being selfish"

"But Grandpa had asked Uncle Daniel and his family to investigate.They found nothing."

James felt that he was ina hard position.

Even if he were to investigate, he might not be able to find anything.

"Didn't you notice that Everett is the only one putting effort into it? The rest are taking it lightly."It was obvious that Everett was in control of everything.

"That's impossible.Isn't Preston..."

James did not finish his sentence.

The rest might be taking it lightly, but it was impossible that Preston would do so.

"Do you know how lazy he is? Even with the recent incident, Steve didn't look into it seriously."

There was no way that Preston and Ellar would investigate further.

James frowned and replied reluctantly, "Alright, I'll get someone to look into it."

Although it would be challenging, Dillon and his family would be able to defend themselves if they could get evidence of Everett's doings.

On top of that, they would have a stronger voice and position in the family.

Dillon turned to Raine.

"You should be smart too.Don't rely on James for everything.I'll be assigning more things for him to do, so he'll be busy.You better not disturb him."

"I—"

Raine felt a little wronged and wanted to defend herself, but James interrupted her.

"Dad, Raine has been really hardworking," he said.

"Actually, I haven't really been helping her much."

Seeing the way James was defending her, Raine felt a lot better and replied, "I understand."

Dillon assigned a few more tasks to them.

Then, Raine and James left his office.

"We didn't do anything wrong and got scolded yet again.Why doesn't he look for his secretary if there are any issues? Why must he look for you?"

Raine grumbled.

Although James stepped up and defended her, Raine knew that she needed James to help her when it came to certain things.

"This is good news.In the future, we'd be more involved in the company operations.Don't worry.You can look for me whenever you come across any problem.You'll always be my priority," James said, comforting Raine.

Chapter 2403

It was only then that Raine was satisfied.She looked up at James and said in a gentle voice, "Thank you.You're the best!"

James lightly patted Raine's shoulder.

"Everything's fine, as long as you're okay.Go ahead."

"Okay."

Raine nodded and left.

James followed after her.

What Raine had not realized was that the gentle side of James had disappeared a long time ago.

That afternoon, the sun shone brightly.

KNOCK, KNOCK.

Hearing a knock on her door, Nicole frowned.

"Come in."

It was lunch break.

Who could it be? The door opened and Ellar entered merrily.

"Nicole, it's me!"

Seeing him, Nicole smiled.

"Oh, it's you! Have a seat."

"Sure!"

Ellar sat down on the sofa beside her.

"What were you trying to say when you were acting mysterious?"

Ellar did not want to mention it the day before, so he purposely visited her at the company.

"Of course, I have good news!"

Ellar smiled and said proudly, "I've secured an international project!"

Nicole nodded.

"That's great news! Congratulations!"

"Hey, I didn't come here so that you can congratulate me.I'm here to thank you."

With that said, Ellar felt embarrassed.

If it were not for Nicole, he would not have been able to secure that project.

Nicole's eyes widened.

"You mean the project you secured is the one with Sanne International?"

If Ellar was thanking her, then it would only be about the project with Sanne International since she only helped Ellar with that one.

"Yes, that's the one."

Ellar was in high spirits as he told the story about what happened.

"When we were bidding for it, it was extremely competitive.The other companies also gave excellent proposals.On top of that, BayCorp was the best contestant out of all.I actually thought that we would fail..."

Luckily, they got the opportunity.

Ellar knew that the achievement was because of Nicole's help.

Otherwise, they would not be able to compete with BayCorp's status.

But because of Nicole's help in creating a perfect proposal, the organizer went with them.

While listening to Ellar narrate the whole story, Nicole smiled.

Deep down, she thought about how fast Ellar grew.

Although she helped him with the proposal and gave advice, the entire process and final bid was all done by Ellar along with his team.

Not to mention, they succeeded.

No one could have imagined that.

"Nicole, why aren't you saying anything?"

After Ellar had finished speaking, Nicole still remained silent.

Ellar could not tell what she was thinking.

"Ellar, you're actually capable of doing things on your own now.The only thing you're lacking is confidence," Nicole said, giving him some constructive criticism.

"Really?"

Ellar’s eyes glimmered as Nicole praised him.

"Of course.I wouldn't lie to you."

Nicole rolled her eyes at Ellar.

Ellar scratched his head and smiled innocently.

After discussing work, Ellar said, "Samuel and Spencer are getting married soon.My mom and Aunt Gloria have been very excited about it."

"Yeah, it's time that the family brought in some happy celebration."

Nicole's eyes darkened slightly.

None of the family members knew about Nolan and Lana yet.

But they would be the page boy and flower girl.

So when the time comes, she would not be able to keep it a secret anymore.

"Nicole, what's the matter?" Ellar asked in concern, noticing Nicole's expression.

"Is there something that hasn't been settled? You can pass the job to me if you're busy.I'll help you with it."

"It's not that." Nicole shook her head.

"I just thought of something."

Chapter 2404

Nicole had not figured things out, so she could not reveal it to Ellar yet.

Ellar did not give it much thought and continued to ask, "Oh yeah, I heard Spencer had a junior who caused a lot of trouble.Is everything settled now?"

"As long as Spencer and Lulu are fine, that girl wouldn't be able to stir anything up."

Nicole's eyes narrowed.

As long as their relationship was stable, Icyln would not be able to do much even if she was still in love with Spencer.

"That girl doesn't seem to be as meek as she appears to be."

Ellar smirked, pitying Spencer.

"How did Spencer come across such a junior? Haa..."

Nicole rolled her eyes at Ellar.

"You should stop worrying about other people's love life.Put more effort into your own."

"I'm not in a rush.After all, I still have my brother before me."

Ellar shrugged his shoulders as if he did not care.

Emery was still single, so why should he be worried? After all, his current focus was on the company.He wanted to build BayCorp on his own and stop it from turning into a burden to the head

office.His ultimate wish was for BayCorp to develop alongside the head office.He would not allow BayCorp to drag them down.

KNOCK, KNOCK.

As the two were chatting, an impatient knock came from the door.

Nicole's eyes turned serious.

"Come in."

Lulu opened the door and entered.

"Nicole, Spencer and Icyln are injured! I have to go to the hospital."

Nicole instantly grew worried.

"What happened?"

"I'm not sure either, but I'll go over and check on the situation."

Lulu was in a hurry too.She wanted to request for leave.

"I'll go with you," said Nicole, rising to her feet.

"I should go instead.I can drive faster."

Ellar turned to Lulu.

"Is that fine?"

"Thank you."

Lulu looked at Nicole.

"I'll head over now.I'll call you once I get any updates."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lulu and Ellar quickly left.

Nicole furrowed her eyebrows.

‘Why would Spencer and Icyln get hurt at the same time? I wonder how they are.."

On the other hand, soon, Ellar and Lulu reached the hospital.

Both of the emergency rooms were lit with red signs outside.

The corridor was in pin-drop silence.

The whole atmosphere felt heavy.

"How did Spencer get hurt with that lady at the same time?"

Ellar mumbled in doubt.

Previously, he had just said that this lady was sly.

And then, such a thing happened.

No one could blame Ellar for overthinking it.

"As long as Spencer's fine, the rest isn't important."

Lulu's gaze was fixed on the emergency room.

Her tone was firm.

Although it may seem suspicious to the rest, Lulu had faith in Spencer.

Therefore, she only wished for Spencer to be safe.

"That's true.I just hope Spencer only has you in his heart."

Ellar shrugged his shoulders.He would not fault Lulu for being this calm since Spencer gave her a lot of reassurance.

Lulu glanced at Ellar.

"If there's nothing else, you should go ahead and finish your work.I'll stay here."

"No, I'll leave after we're sure Spencer is fine."

If Ellar were to leave at that moment, he would be attacked by a crowd.

Moreover, he was quite worried about Spencer as well.

"Then, keep quiet," Lulu said coldly.

Her gaze turned to the emergency room again.

Ellar was stunned for a moment.

Then, he shrugged his shoulders, understanding that Lulu was in a bad mood.He was taken aback by what he witnessed.

Lulu cared for Spencer more than anyone thought.

Chapter 2405

"Spencer is lucky to have you."

Ellar took a few steps away and waited at the side.

Lulu was not in the mood to care about what Ellar was talking about either.

She was only worried about Spencer and wished for him to be safe.

And just like that, they were standing outside of the emergency room.

10 minutes, half an hour, one hour later...

Finally, the doors to the emergency room opened.

The doctor stepped out, and Lulu quickly ran over.

"How is he, doctor?"

"The patient suffered minor injuries.His condition is better now, but he'll need to rest a bit more," the doctor explained.

"Thank God."

Lulu heaved a huge sigh of relief.

At this moment, she suddenly felt the exhaustion of her body.

Seeing Lulu about to collapse, Ellar reached out his arms to support her.

"Spencer's fine now, but you're not."

"I'm fine.I was just too excited for a moment."

Lulu regained her composure.

Then, she peeked inside the emergency room and waited for Spencer to be brought out.

After a while, the nurses wheeled Spencer out ina wheelchair.

Lulu immediately walked up to them.

"I'll take over."

Taking the wheelchair, Lulu asked in a gentle voice, "How are you feeling now?"

"I'm feeling okay."

Spencer lightly patted Lulu's hands to comfort her.

"Although the doctor said you're fine, shouldn't you stay here for a few nights for observation?" Ellar asked out of concern.

"It's okay.Let's go home."

Spencer shook his head.He knew his body well, and the doctor had told him that his injuries were not serious while they were inside.

Lulu replied, "Alright, I'll send you home."

"I'll get the car."

Ellar left as soon as he said that.

After Lulu settled the bills and documents, she wheeled Spencer out of the hospital.

Ellar and Lulu helped Spencer into the car, and they left.

When the car was on the road, Ellar suddenly remembered something.

"Oh yeah! Didn't they say that your junior was also sent to the hospital at the same time? Is it fine for us to leave like that?"

"Her personal assistant is there.They'll take care of her," Spencer replied briefly.

He shut his eyes to rest.

Ellar frowned in doubt.

He had a feeling that Spencer was avoiding the conversation.

Did something really happen? Seeing that Spencer did not want to talk about it, Lulu glared at Ellar as a warning.

Then, Ellar chose to remain silent.

If he was curious, he could find out the whole situation later.

There was no way he would be able to get anything out of Spencer and Lulu.

He decided to change the topic.

"Are we going back to the Riddle family's house or the apartment?"

Lulu glared at him unhappily.

"The Riddle’s."

Why would they go to Lulu's apartment? It wasn't that Lulu was not willing to take care of Spencer, but Spencer's situation is different from Samuel.

A minor injury would not require special care.

Moreover, Lulu felt that Ellar's question carried an implicit meaning.

However, she did not dwell on the matter.

Spencer glanced at Ellar and said, "You should focus on driving."

"Okay,"

Ellar responded and continued driving.

‘I did this for you, Spencer.And yet, you chose your lady over your cousin.No wonder it took you so long to get a wife"

Ellar sent Spencer and Lulu back to the Riddle family's house.

Seeing Spencer return home with wounds and being carried by Lulu, Gloria's eyes widened hugely.

"What happened?"

"It's nothing.I got injured while working," Spencer answered.He tried his best to sound as relaxed as possible.
