Ch. 2406..2410: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 2406-2410

Chapter 2406

"How could you get injured at work?"

Gloria was confused, especially since Spencer was not at a high-risk job.Accidents can happen,"Spencer justified.

Lulu could tell that Spencer was not willing to talk more about it, so she tried to save the situation.

"Aunt Gloria, why don't we let him rest in the room first?"

Hearing this, Gloria stopped questioning and said, "Yes, we should let him rest first."

Lulu helped Spencer upstairs, while Gloria followed behind.

When they reached the first floor, Samuel, who had heard the commotion, came out from his room.

As he saw Spencer, Samuel teased and said, "Are you trying to be like me?"

"My condition isn't as serious as yours."

Spencer rolled his eyes at Samuel and entered his room.

Gloria warned Samuel angrily, "You better stay away.He's already injured, and you still have the mood to joke around!"

"Mom, don't worry.His injuries don't look serious at all."

Samuel shrugged his shoulders.

What injury could Spencer suffer from playing the violin? He was unlike Samuel who was involved in sports.

"Go back and rest."

Gloria glared at Samuel.

Then, Samuel could only return to his room obediently.

Still, he thought that there was nothing serious about Spencer's condition.

It was his mother who was acting up.

After Lulu had helped Spencer settle down, she looked at the time.

"I should head back now."

Seeing that Lulu was about to leave, Gloria tried to make her stay.

"Even if you return to the office now, everyone would've left already.Why don't you stay for dinner?"

"Stay here.Even if you're not going back to the office, you'll be eating alone at the apartment," Spencer added.

Lulu looked at them for a moment and bit her lip.

"Okay then.

"In that case, you can stay here for now.I'll check and get the butler to prepare dinner."

Gloria left the room with a smile.

With Lulu taking care of Spencer, it was best for Gloria to give the couple some space.

As for Spencer's injuries, Gloria thought she could ask about it another time.

As Gloria left, Lulu blushed.

Spencer had a gentle look on his face as he said, "I'm fine.You don't have to watch me.Have a seat and get some rest."

He knew that while he was in the emergency room, Lulu waited outside the whole time.

So, she must be exhausted by now.However, Lulu was reluctant to rest.

"Let me get you a glass of water."

Although the doctor said Spencer's condition was not serious, and that rest was all he needed, Lulu still worried.

"Really, it's fine."

Spencer grabbed Lulu's hand.He tugged Lulu down to sit beside him.

Lulu glanced at Spencer and spoke in a soft voice, "Alright then, you should get some rest."

"Whatever happened today was really an accident," Spencer explained.

Lulu, who had been trying to escape Spencer's hold, instantly froze.

Then, she bit her lip and responded, "I know."

Actually, Lulu felt a little uncomfortable when she got the news that Spencer and Icyln were injured and sent to the hospital together.

However, the discomfort she felt seemed less important when compared to Spencer's injuries.

Spencer gently held Lulu's hands and continued to explain in a gentle tone, "While we were rehearsing today, the hanging shelf suddenly fell.At that moment, I saw it was going to fall on Icyin.So, I stepped forward and pulled her away.That was how I got injured."

He decided explaining the whole incident would be best.

After all, his line of work was not a high-risk one.

And yet, he suddenly got injured with Icyln.

Spencer did not want Lulu to worry too much.

"Okay."

Lulu nodded lightly.

She understood that he did it to save someone else.

Even if it were not Icyln, Spencer would not have sat still and watched either.

While they were chatting, Spencer's phone rang.

Seeing that it was Icyln's number, Spencer frowned and answered the call.

"Icyln?"

"IcyIn hasn't woken up yet.Could you come and visit her?"

The voice on the other side of the phone belonged to IcyIn's personal assistant.

Spencer felt troubled.

"She hasn't woken up? Then, you should get the doctor to check on her."

MY WIFE IS A HACKER CHAPTER 2407-At the time of the accident, Spencer had already managed to pull Icyln away. He was sure that neither of them suffered severe injuries. So why would Icyln’s condition be this serious?

Icyln’s personal assistant choked for a second, paused for a moment and continued speaking. “Mr. Spencer, could you come over and visit Icyln now? I’m worried that if something happens, I won’t be able to make any decisions.”

“Uh…” Spencer was hesitant, but what if Icyln was really in a serious situation?

However, Lulu had already taken over his phone and spoke calmly. “First of all, you’re going to find the doctor now.

Then, follow whatever arrangement and decisions the doctor makes. Secondly, Spencer is also injured and requires rest. Even if he were to be there, there’s not much he can do. Lastly, if you really must have someone there, I’ll be there to represent Spencer.”

“In that case… it’s fine. I’ll get the doctor for now,” the personal assistant replied, voice quavering before she hung up the call.

Having heard the busy noises from the other side of the phone earlier, Lulu’s gaze darkened. She could tell that Icyln was fine.

Lulu returned Spencer’s phone and reassured him, “You

should get some rest. Don’t think about anything else. If Icyln really gets into any problems, I’ll visit her on your behalf. n

“Forget it. Her assistant’s there, and there are so many medical personnels around. She’ll be fine.” Spencer also understood the situation. He sighed quietly.

Lulu was a little surprised. “If you ignore her, aren’t you ignoring your teacher’s instructions?”

“My teacher only instructed me to help care about a few things. It wasn’t specified that I’ll have to care about every single detail. After all, Icyln isn’t a minor anymore. She should know how to take care of herself. Not to mention, she has her personal assistant by her side.”

Spencer thought that as long as Icyln did not get severely injured or was in any serious trouble, he would not be going against his teacher’s instructions.

“Alright then.” A warm feeling grew in Lulu’s heart. She knew that Spencer was thinking of her, trying his best not to make her feel sad.

After a while, all the members of the Riddle family had returned home.

Gloria gathered everyone in the dining room for dinner.

Lulu glanced at Nicole and gave Nicole a nod as she helped Spencer down the stairs.

Looking at Spencer’s wounds, Nicole guessed that the injury was not that serious. “Are you okay now?”

“Just a minor injury,” Spencer replied lightly as he did not want everyone to worry about him.

“Even so, you should rest for the next few days,” Gloria advised, still unsettled.

Spencer nodded. “Alright, I got it.”

Gloria then turned to Lulu and said, “Lulu, you should come over more often if you’re not too busy. Otherwise, he’d feel bored at home.”

Lulu blushed a little as she responded, “Will do, Aunt Gloria.”

“Hey, I’ve just recovered and now, it’s your turn to stay at home. We really are a tight pair of brothers,” Samuel teased, shrugging.

Spencer rolled his eyes at him. Don’t speak nonsense.”

“Anyways, I’m going back to the team tomorrow.” Samuel smiled widely as if he was saying, ‘You have no choice but to stay home.’

Gloria rolled her eyes at Samuel. “That’s enough. Let’s eat. We’re here to eat and yet, you’re busy quarreling.”

Chuckling, Samuel smiled innocently. He had been lying in bed for two months and it was finally his time to head outside. Of course, he had to brag about it.

Spencer seemed to have read Samuel’s mind. So, he said sarcastically, “Quit bragging. I won’t be lying in bed as long as you did.”

“Yeah, right! You better not affect my wedding day,” Samuel responded. He wanted to show that he would not back down from his brother’s attack.

“Hmph! That’s my wedding day too!” Of course, Spencer would not want to delay it. In fact, he would never.

After everyone ended the dinner with chatter and laughter, Lulu brought Spencer up to his room again to rest. Then, she bid farewell to everyone. “It’s getting late, so I’ll head back now.”

 

MY WIFE IS A HACKER CHAPTER 2408-“Sure. Then we won’t keep you any longer.” Gloria then called the butler and instructed him, “Get the driver to take Lulu home, please.”

“Of course,”‘ he responded and left to make the arrangements.

Lulu initially wanted to decline, but the butler had already left, so she expressed her gratitude, “Thank you, Mrs. Riddle.”

“No need for formalities. We’re going to be family!” Gloria smiled affectionately.

With the car prepared, Lulu left the Riddle residence.

The remaining people also went back to their rooms.

After coaxing Nolan and Lana to sleep, Nicole and Jared returned to their own room.

“You look tired. Why don’t you take a relaxing hot bath?” Jared suggested as he prepared the bathwater, inviting her to unwind.

Nicole smiled tenderly when she saw everything was set up, including the bubble bath and scented candles. “Thank you.”

Jared ruffled her hair lovingly. “Take your time and relax.”

As Jared left, Nicole undressed and lowered herself into the bathtub.

Lying comfortably in the warm water, Nicole slowly closed her eyes and enjoyed the tranquility.

After Jared had gone out, he sat by the bed and began working on his laptop while waiting for his wife to finish her bath.

After dealing with all of his emails, he realized Nicole had not come out yet. Frowning, he wondered why she was taking so long.

Jared furrowed his eyebrows as he approached the bathroom door. “Nicole, are you alright?”

No response came from inside.

He called again, “Nicole?”

Still met with silence, Jared grew concerned. He forcefully pushed the door open and saw Nicole still soaking in the bathtub, her cheeks rosy. Despite the commotion he caused barging in, she remained asleep.

Realizing that she might have soaked for too long and fainted, Jared swiftly moved to the tub and lifted Nicole out of the water.

Once Nicole was out of the water, she trembled as cold air hit her skin. She blinked her eyes open and saw Jared.

“What’s going on?” Nicole murmured softly, still drowsy.

She knew Jared was holding her, but she could not comprehend why. She struggled to process what had happened earlier. ‘What’s going on? Why don’t I remember anything?’

The more she tried to recall, the heavier her head felt. So she closed her eyes again.

Jared figured Nicole was fine when he saw she was still conscious, so he took her to the bed and covered her with a blanket.

“Nicole?” Jared called softly.

She mumbled in response, “I’m tired. Goodnight.”

Jared was relieved as Nicole seemed to be alright. She was just extremely fatigued. He did not disturb her further and remained seated by the bedside, monitoring her condition.

As midnight approached, Nicole showed no signs of distress, and Jared finally lay down to sleep as well.

The morning sunlight awakened a new day.

Nicole slowly opened her eyes, frowning slightly as she sensed something amiss. ‘Why does it feel chilly?’

She pulled up the covers, and her eyes immediately widened. ‘Why am I naked?!’

Nicole failed to recall anything. ‘Why am I not wearing anything?! I remember soaking in the hot water last night, and I think I fell asleep.’

MY WIFE IS A HACKER CHAPTER 2409-Nicole racked her brain, but she still felt puzzled. ‘What’s going on? Did I lose my memories again?’

“Awake?” Jared’s eyes opened as he sensed Nicole’s movement.

“Um…” Nicole felt embarrassed, so she pulled the covers and shifted away from Jared.

However, Jared noticed this, and he immediately reached out, wrapping his arm around her waist and pulling her into his embrace.

“Hey!” Nicole’s cheeks flushed when she realized that she was pressed against Jared, naked.

Jared gazed at her with a mischievous glint in his eyes.” You’ve tortured me all night, so how do you plan to make it up to me?”

“Me? Torture?” Nicole felt unexpectedly guilty. She genuinely had no recollection of last night, but she was absolutely not going to admit that.

“Really?” Jared’s eyes traced down the curve of Nicole’s neck, though he could not see anything due to the covers. But Nicole understood his implication.

Her cheeks grew even hotter. She attempted to push Jared away and escape, deciding to simply deny everything.

But Jared would not let her succeed. He tightened his hold

on her as soon as she moved, planting a strong kiss on her lips.

A spark ignited, and the room instantly grew warmer…

By the time Jared and Nicole came downstairs, breakfast time had already passed. Tia had taken Nolan and Lana to school, and those with work had left. Even Daniel and Gloria were not at home.

“Where is everyone?” Nicole felt confused. Why are they all gone?’

“Ms. Nicole, Mr. Riddle went to the ancestral residence to keep Mr. Riddle Sr. company. Mrs. Riddle and Ms. Emma made plans together too,” the butler explained.

“Ah.” Nicole knew that her father was concerned about her grandfather, as he had been visiting the Riddle family manor for the past two days.

Gloria and Aunt Emma were probably occupied with wedding preparations, so she refrained from asking further.

Nicole belatedly realized that something was off when she arrived in the dining room. ‘Why didn’t anyone call us when we didn’t come down for dinner? Not even Nolan and Lana!’

Furrowing her eyebrows, Nicole looked at Jared and asked,” What did you do?”

It was the only explanation. Otherwise, how could no one call them for breakfast?

“I simply informed Mrs. Riddle that you weren’t feeling well and shouldn’t be disturbed,” Jared replied calmly.

“But I’m not! And why did you tell my mom this?” Nicole could not help but roll her eyes at Jared. ‘Doesn’t he feel embarrassed?’

“Last night,” Jared paused and shrugged before continuing,” you fainted in the bath.”

He genuinely wanted her to have enough rest.

Nicole blinked in confusion as she gradually pieced things together. ‘So that’s what happened. No wonder I don’t remember anything from last night.’

That was why she woke up this morning completely naked. He had carried her out of the bathtub without her clothes on.

Furrowing her brows in annoyance, Nicole looked at Jared out of the corner of her eye. ‘He did it on purpose, didn’t he?’

“Breakfast time.” Jared, seemingly unfazed by her expression, calmly handed her a glass of milk.

Nicole bit her lip and ultimately decided to let it go.

She was not sure why, but she felt that if she pressed further, Jared’s answer might be more than she could handle. Jared was a shameless man after all.

Jared smiled dotinolv as he watched Nicole’s everv move

MY WIFE IS A HACKER CHAPTER 2410-After having breakfast, the pair left the Riddle residence.

Jared took Nicole to her office. He watched her go in before instructing Max to drive away.

“Any updates on Preston?” Jared asked in a serious tone, reclining in his seat.

“Not yet. He just sent a message saying he’s already contacted Ryder and Gary. Both of the brothers agreed to help,” Max replied.

“Okay.” Jared was satisfied. After a brief thought, he added,” The Finley’s are working on a network intelligence company. Arrange for someone to negotiate investment.”

Max paused for a moment before nodding in agreement.” Sure.”

In actuality, the Finley family’s project did not quite fit with the investment criteria of the Johnston Group. Jared’s decision was made more for the sake of his wife. He did not want to owe people too many favors. This way, it was a mutual exchange of help.

With the arrangements settled, Jared picked up the documents next to him and began reading them with a solemn expression.

Meanwhile in the Finley family.

“Preston, this task you got yourself into is quite challenging.

Where did you find this masochistic job?” Gary furrowed his eyebrows with a sour expression. He regretted agreeing so easily when Preston had approached him.

Even the former Lucifer would find it difficult to complete this task, let alone now when Nicole had lost her memory. They could not even seek her help even if they wanted to.

Preston glanced at Gary indifferently and said, “Don’t even think about it. The truth is, this involves Nicole.”

He could not reveal the specifics to them. After all, he did not know much himself.

“Even Nicole can’t handle it?” Ryder’s expression turned serious. ‘If Nicole could not do it, could we?’

“Oh come on, pull yourselves together. I’m not asking you to compete with Nicole in hacking skills. What we need now is to search for clues about the Five Crests, especially the Fire Crest. I trust you both, that’s why I came to you,” Preston encouraged them.

Gary gave Preston a disdainful look and asked, “You’re saying this because you can’t do it yourself, isn’t it?”

“I might be able to. It’s just that time is running short, and besides, three heads are better than one,” Preston replied with a hint of pride.

“Are you even here to ask for our help? What’s with your attitude?” Gary protested irritably. ‘Didn’t asking for help require a certain attitude?*

“Well, someone requested my help too, so why don’t you go

tell Nicole that you won’t help her?” Preston shrugged with a look of amusement on his face. He knew Gary would not actually do that.

Gary glared at Preston indignantly. “You’re ruthless.”

“Stop quarreling, you two. Every time you meet, you argue. Let’s think about how we’re going to handle this instead,” Ryder intervened, maintaining a much calmer demeanor.

“Do you have any ideas?” Preston and Gary both looked at Ryder with anticipation.

“Well, I was thinking-‘ Ryder’s words were cut off by a knock on the door.

Annoyed, Gary furrowed his eyebrows and said, “Come in.”

‘Didn’t we say that this is an urgent matter? Why are we being disturbed?’

The assistant walked in, visibly excited. “Mr. Ryder and Mr. Gary, the Johnston Group – the Johnston Group wants to invest in us!”

“Look at you, barging in like this. I told you I have an urgent matter…” Gary was about to get angry, but he stopped abruptly when he processed what he just heard. “What did you just say?”

“The Johnston Group contacted us. They want to invest in our artificial intelligence company,” the assistant repeated.

“What’s going on?” Gary looked at Ryder with disbelief in his eyes.
