Ch. 2446..2450: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 2446-2450

Chapter 2446 "Beneficial or not, I'll still do what needs to be done." Nicole had always relied on herself, and any assistance would be a bonus.

But even without it, she would not give up.

"Let's go back now.

Just carry on with your plan.

If you encounter any problems, you can come to us," Jared said firmly.

He was determined to succeed in this matter.

"Got it," Preston agreed solemnly.

Jared glanced at Preston.

Then, he held Nicole's hand, about to get in the car.

"Nicole, thank you," said Preston.

"You should go home now," Nicole replied, smiling faintly.

She then got into the car with Jared.

After watching them leave, Preston got into his own car and left the manor.

The Riddle family manor fell silent once again, but tonight, it seemed different from before.

In the car, Nicole leaned back in her seat.

She slowly moved her neck, appearing somewhat tired.

"Feeling better now?" Jared asked softly, gently massaging her neck.

"Yes, much better," Nicole replied with a smile.

Jared looked at her and asked, "Did you remember something in the family manor?" Knowing that he was asking about what she had told Preston, Nicole furrowed her brows.

"I'm not sure.

I didn't personally feel anything, but at that moment, I just felt like that was the right thing to say, that it should be like that." She did not know if her memories were gradually returning, but she just had a feeling that she knew Preston had always wanted to start a tech company, so she just spontaneously mentioned it.

Jared's eyes narrowed slightly.

'So, she couldn't definitively sense whether her memories were returning, but she'd show it if something was familiar to her." "Maybe your memories are slowly coming back.

That's a good sign," Jared said.

"I think so too," Nicole replied.

Even if she could not regain her memories, it did not seem to affect her now.

Nicole let out a sigh of relief as she rested her head on Jared's shoulder.

She looked content as she closed her eyes, smiling.

"If you're tired, just sleep for a while," Jared suggested softly, holding the woman gently.

"Sure," Nicole murmured before falling silent.

Jared waited for a while and she was still silent, so he glanced at her and found that she had really fallen asleep.

There was tenderness in his gaze.

"Max, crank up the air conditioning a bit," Jared instructed.

"Of course." Max adjusted the temperature before asking quietly, "Mr. Johnston, now that Dillon's case is resolved, will they find trouble with Mrs. Johnston if they find out that the DillCorp is now under her control?" "They don't have the ability to do so," Jared said with a cold glint in his eyes.

He would not give them the opportunity either.

Just then, Jared's phone suddenly rang.

He immediately muted his phone and saw 'Grandpa’ flashing on the screen.

His brows furrowed slightly as if he could guess what this was about.

He glanced at Nicole and ultimately decided not to answer the call.

He put the phone away after the screen went blank.

After a while, the car arrived at the Riddle residence.

Seeing that Nicole was still asleep, Jared did not want to disturb her.

So he gently carried her out of the car and returned to their room.

Chapter 2447 After settling Nicole down, Jared's phone rang again.

He sighed helplessly and went to the balcony to answer the call.

"You punk.

You're even avoiding my calls now." Mr. Johnston Sr. sounded annoyed.

"I was occupied just now," Jared explained calmly.

Mr. Johnston Sr. was vexed.

"If Mr. Riddle Sr. didn't tell me, how long were you planning to keep this from me?" Jared knew exactly what was going on after hearing this accusatory tone.

Mr. Riddle Sr. had called Jared's grandfather and informed him about the children, so his grandfather came to question him.

"I didn't intend to keep it from you.

It's just not convenient to disclose it openly right now," Jared justified patiently.

“Hmph! Mr. Riddle Sr. knows, so why can't I?" Mr. Johnston Sr. questioned angrily.

As grandfathers, they both had the right to know.

"Give us some time.

I'll explain everything to you," Jared said, feeling helpless.

"It's late.

Get some rest." With that, Jared hung up the phone.

Otherwise, his grandfather would keep questioning him.

But Jared could not promise him anything right now.

After all, he had not even told Nicole about his grandfather.

In fact, he did not tell her anything related to his family.

He did not want to burden her when her memory still had not fully returned.

However, things had come to this point, and Jared believed that it was finally time for him to head back and explain things to his grandfather.

He looked back at the room, his gaze softening.

'She should know some things by now,’ he thought.

The next day, the sun shone brightly, and the sky was clear.

As usual, Jared accompanied Nicole to Riddle Corporation.

However, as soon as their car stopped, another car pulled up in front of them.

Jared could not help but feel a bit exhausted at this strange occurrence.

Although he found it strange that the car had stopped in front of them, Nicole got out of the car without much thought, so Jared followed suit.

“Do you need something?" Nicole asked, confused when she saw him getting out of the car.

"I planned to tell you some of this in the future, but I'm afraid you have to know about it now," Jared said.

There was no avoiding it now.

His grandfather was here, and even if he did not say anything, it was something that could be swept under the carpet.

Before Nicole could ask what he meant, a loud voice was heard as a figure approached them.

“You brat! You found your wife, and now you're neglecting everything else, huh?" Nicole turned to look.

Even though that person was elderly, he appeared quite spirited, almost appearing younger than their actual age.

However, there was one thing that did not make sense to her.

‘This person just called someone a brat.

Who's he referring to?' In her confusion, the elderly person had already arrived in front of them.

He was raising his walking stick and was about to lash out at Jared.

Nicole's expression changed, and she instinctively blocked the cane, frowning slightly.

"Sir, how can you injure someone in public?" ‘Who is this person? How dare he call Jared a brat! He even tried to hit him! Does someone like this actually exist in San Jato? Or did he mistake Jared for someone else?’ Mr. Johnston Sr. was stunned as he looked at the unfamiliarity in Nicole's eyes.

She even sounded hostile.

“Grandpa, let's head inside and talk," Jared suggested.

Nicole blinked in surprise.

"Grandpa?" “Well, that's about right.

Young lady, you've disappeared for five years, and now that you're back, you don't even acknowledge me anymore.

You didn't even let me see your kids even though you've taken them to see Mr. Riddle Sr.,'' Mr. Johnston Sr. grumbled discontentedly, already walking toward the Riddle Corporation building.

Nicole's mouth twitched.

'Did he just respond to me? I wasn't even addressing him.' She turned to look at Jared, her eyes filled with questions.

‘What's going on?’

Chapter 2448 Jared held Nicole's hand.

"Let's go, we can talk inside." "Sure." Nicole followed Jared into her office.

Once they entered Nicole's office, the three of them took seats on the couch.

A secretary brought them some tea and left the room.

It was just the three of them left.

Both Nicole and Mr. Johnston Sr. looked at Jared, waiting for him to say something.

"Grandpa, we didn't mean to keep this from you, but it's because Nicole has amnesia," Jared explained, choosing to clarify things with his grandfather first.

As long as his grandfather understood the situation, everything else could be sorted out.

Indeed, Mr. Johnston Sr. was shocked at the statement.

He looked at Nicole in astonishment.

"You don't remember anything at all?" ‘No wonder she didn't recognize me earlier.

She had lost her memory.' "Yes, but this is something we've kept confidential.

Even Mr. Riddle Sr. doesn't know about it," Jared explained with a raised eyebrow, lowering his voice.

Mr. Johnston Sr. was initially surprised, but then he smiled.

"Well, now I know something he doesn't.

That's good.” Jared shook his head mentally as he knew his grandfather would react this way.

Once he put it this way, his grandfather would not be bothered by the details.

“Have you consulted a doctor? Is there a chance for her to recover? " "We're working on it, but the results of my treatment are still uncertain,” Nicole answered truthfully.

Seeing Mr. Johnston Sr.'s reaction, even though she had no memory of him, Nicole felt a strange sense of familiarity with him.

"Don't worry too much about it.

Even if you can't remember, it doesn't matter.

What matters most is the future of both of you.

You should live happily together from now on," said Mr. Johnston Sr., to comfort them.

He felt sorry for Nicole.

She had gone through a lot before returning to San Joto, and now, she had lost her memory.

However, to everyone else, Nicole's memory loss was not important.

What was most important was that she was back safely, and that was more than enough.

"Yeah." Nicole smiled as she realized that she had been worried for nothing.

Gradually, she had become more accepting, and the outcome did not seem so important anymore.

“What about the children?" Mr. Johnston Sr. continued.

Last night, Mr. Riddle Sr. had called him, praising how cute the children were, so he could not wait to see them.

"Grandpa, we'll take the children to visit you in a few days," Jared said.

Since his grandfather already knew about his kids, there was no need to hide it any longer.

"Can't I see them now?" He had been looking forward to it.

"They are at preschool right now," Jared explained.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Johnston Sr. proposed, "How about after school then?" ‘If I can't meet them now, I must be able to see them after their class.’ "You have to give us some time so I can tell the kids beforehand." It was not that Jared did not want them to meet his grandfather, he just had not told Nolan and Lana about this yet.

Since Nicole had lost her memories and many things had happened after her return, Jared did not tell them about Mr. Johnston Sr. for now.

"What's there to tell them? Just bring me to them, and I'll tell them myself.

Mr. Riddle Sr. had met them, so I want to see them too,'' Mr. Johnston Sr. said stubbornly.

Jared frowned, feeling defeated.

Seeing that both men were standing their ground, Nicole decided to grant Mr. Johnston's wishes.

"Alright, please wait at home then, Grandpa.

I'll take them to meet you after they're done with their classes."

Chapter 2449 Suddenly, Mr. Johnston Sr. became delighted.

"Alright, it's settled then! I'll await your visit tonight." Jared could only give in.

Alright.” “Hmph! My own useless grandson is less capable than Nicole," Mr. Johnston grumbled discontentedly.

Then he smiled at Nicole and said, "I'll be waiting for you all tonight." "Bye, Grandpa," Nicole responded with a smile, nodding.

Finally satisfied, Mr. Johnston Sr. left.

Nicole raised her gaze to look at Jared.

"Why didn't you tell me about your grandfather all this time?" "There were too many things on your plate, so I didn't want you to be distracted," Jared explained softly.

He initially believed that Nicole would remember when her memories returned.

However, things had not unfolded as he expected.

Since everyone knew about this now, and Nolan and Lana's identities were going to be announced to the public, Jared figured that there was no need for him to keep it from Nicole anymore.

Understanding his intentions, Nicole stopped condemning him.

But now that they knew, it was time to visit his family's elders.

Jared patted her head affectionately and said softly, "I'm glad you understand.” Nicole could not help but roll her eyes playfully.

''No need to be so serious.

It's not that big of a deal." Besides, Jared was considering her well-being.

He was not being selfish.

"Nicole!" Lulu burst into the room in a hurry.

She froze when she saw Jared there.

"Hello, Mr. Johnston." After seeing the urgency on Lulu's face, Jared said, "I'll be leaving now since you're busy." "Sure." Nicole smiled.

After Jared left, Lulu walked up to Nicole and teased, "Did I interrupt something?" She did not expect Jared to be there, which was why she barged in like that.

Nicole rolled her eyes at Lulu.

"It's late.

Do you have something urgent to discuss?" Lulu's expression instantly turned serious.

"Yes, well...

Raine has gone missing." Lulu's face turned pale with concern.

"How did she disappear?" Nicole asked in surprise.

'Given Raine's current condition, where could she have gone?' “We don't know.

She went to DillCorp the other day, went back home, and never stepped out again.

We thought she was just resting due to her injuries, but today we realized she's been missing for who knows how long," Lulu said, her face turning paler.

As of now, they only knew that Raine was missing, with no other details.

"So be it then," Nicole replied indifferently.

“But what if she holds a grudge and tries to harm you?" The person Raine should resent the most was James, but he was arrested now.

If Raine wanted to take revenge on someone, her primary target was most probably Nicole.

Nicole said calmly, "She's not capable enough." Lulu furrowed her eyebrows.

"If it's not that, then where could she have gone?" With DillCorp gone, James arrested, and her family cutting ties with the Riddle family, there was nowhere else for Raine to turn.

Where could she be? Nicole's eyes narrowed as she asked, 'What about the others?" "Well..." Lulu pondered before replying, "Dillon and Karen are at home every day, looking extremely upset.

They seem to be on the verge of a breakdown." Now, in Dillon's family, Preston was the only one who was behaving normally.

The others appeared eerie and emotionally unstable.

"Does Raine get yelled at home all the time?" Nicole wondered.

Chapter 2450

"Yeah, that's true." Lulu nodded.

Dillon was furious every day, so how could he not scold her? Then, Lulu seemed to grasp Nicole's meaning.

Her eyes widened.

" Oh, you mean to say that she couldn't stand being at home anymore?" While that was a possibility, why would she go so far as to disappear just to run away from home? Could it be that she did not want Dillon to find out where she was and continue to berate her? "It's not worth wasting energy on Raine's issues.

She can't do much now anyway." Nicole shrugged, not wanting to dwell on it.

If Raine could not bear staying at home, she would hide until she could not anymore, and then she would come out.

“Alright, I understand," Lulu replied.

She then asked Nicole, "You went back to the family manor yesterday.

How did you resolve the matter with Preston?" “He doesn't want to manage DillCorp, so I promised to help him establish a tech company, and he agreed," Nicole explained briefly.

"That's actually not a bad outcome," Lulu remarked.

“He's helping me now, but he's never been involved in managing the company.

Can you help prepare the necessary documents for the early stage?" "Sure.

I'll get the documents ready and hand them over to Preston, " If she could help, Lulu was more than willing.

"Thank you," Nicole said, smiling.

Lulu pretended to be displeased.

"Don't thank me! Are you treating me like a stranger?" “Alright, no thanks, then.

I'll just thank my sister-in-law," Nicole teased.

Lulu's cheeks reddened, and she retorted, "Mrs. Johnston, you really don't need to be so polite." Nicole burst into laughter and Lulu joined her, filling the office with laughter.

After a while, Lulu checked the time and said, "I have to go back to work." "Okay." Nicole nodded in agreement.

Lulu turned and left the office.

Taking a deep breath, Nicole got up and returned to her desk to busy herself.

Unfortunately, just when she finished dealing with the final document and placed it down, the phone rang.

Nicole glanced at the number and saw that it was Lawrence calling.

She squinted and the screen but answered the call.

Nicole took another deep breath and said calmly, "Leo." “Nicole, the doctor I arranged for earlier is available today.

I'll come pick you up now.

Let's go for the examination,” Lawrence's gentle voice sounded through the phone.

After a brief hesitation, Nicole agreed, "Alright." Since she had already agreed earlier, she could not back out now.

Besides, given her current situation, she also wanted to know how much progress she had made in her recovery.

"Okay, go get ready.

I'll be downstairs at your office in five minutes," Lawrence added.

"Where are we going?" "Roma General Hospital."" Lawrence recited the address to her.

"Okay," Nicole said and hung up the phone.

Nicole contemplated for a moment and then called Martin.
