Ch. 2541..2545: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 2541-2545
Chapter 2541 If Harvey could seize NandoCorp, it would be easier to take down DillCorp in the future.
Soon, the entire Riddle Corporation would belong to him.
And when everything Nicole cared about was in his hands, she would naturally get close to him.
Gritting his teeth in anger, Harvey got into the car and said witha dark tone, "Go to the Royal Creek Institute." Part of the reason he lost this time around was because of Mr. Ellison.
If it were not for Mr. Ellison who helped Nicole with the cover up, how would Harvey not realize that Jared had made a move? Especially since Harvey put all of his energy in Mr. Ellison.
Harvey would not have suffered such a huge loss.
When Harvey arrived at the Royal Creek Institute, he said coldly, " After all these, you're still choosing to side with an outsider?" Initially, Mr. Ellison was taken aback by Harvey's sudden visit.
He thought that Harvey was there with good intentions.
Unexpectedly, Harvey began to scrutinize Mr. Ellison as soon as he entered.
"I don't know what you are talking about," Mr. Ellison replied, confused.
"Quit acting.
Nicole had been visiting you a lot.
Don't you know what she's been up to?" Harvey said angrily.
Mr. Ellison was stunned.
"She just came to visit me because I was sick." “Hmph, did you think I'd believe you?" Harvey said through gritted teeth.
Mr. Ellison finally understood what was going on.
He finally got the answer to the questions that had been lingering in his mind for the past two days.
"If you don't trust me, ask the nurse.
The previous nurse left.
You're the one who hired the current nurse, right?" Previously, Mr. Ellison found it odd that the nurse seemed to be eavesdropping often.
Especially when Nicole was there to visit, the nurse would never leave the room.
Even if she had to leave, she would stay right outside of the room and observe everything that was going on inside.
Seeing Harvey's behavior, Mr. Ellison finally understood that they were not on the same side.
And Harvey had assumed that Nicole's frequent visits were so that Mr. Ellison could help her out.
Mr. Ellison took a deep breath in silence.
A glimpse of sorrow flashed in his eyes.
"What happened in the past was my fault.
I've done everything I could to compensate for it.
If you want to ask for more, I'm afraid I can't provide that.
But know that I'd never do anything to hurt you." After all, Harvey was his biological grandchild.
Mr. Ellison was not doing anything wrong, to atone for his sins.
In fact, he admitted his fault.
His only hope was for Harvey to be well.
It would not only ease Mr. Ellison's mind, but also Harvey's parents.
Harvey froze for a moment, grinding his teeth.
Then, he came back to his senses, turned around and walked away.
He came to the realization that Nicole staged all this.
She purposely caused a misunderstanding, so that he would put all his focus on Mr. Ellison and ignore the other side.
Harvey suddenly broke out into laughter.
It had been five years, and Nicole had not changed a single bit.
She was still that quick witted Nicole, that same one who angered and annoyed people.
Harvey's assistant felt chills running down his spine as he watched Harvey laugh maniacally.
He subconsciously took two steps back, in fear of being scolded.
Meanwhile, Nicole and Jared had returned to DillCorp.
"Thank you." Nicole did not expect him to turn up and help her.
Jared held Nicole's hands gently.
"I know you could do it yourself, but I wanted to end things quickly." “You're worried about Everett?" Nicole raised an eyebrow.
She roughly understood what Jared was trying to say.
"At least we'd have one less thing to worry about," Jared replied calmly.
It was not that he was worried about Everett, but it was necessary for them to be prepared for the worst.
It would be great if they could land a headshot.
“Harvey lost this round but his reaction seemed weird." Nicole frowned.
She felt that Harvey's attitude was not a display of what he was thinking.
"What has happened, happened.
He's just a sore loser." Something flashed Jared's eyes.
He would never let Harvey win.
Chapter 2542
“Do you think Mr. Ellison would be in trouble if Harvey comes to his senses?” After all, Nicole did cause Harvey to be suspicious of her recent visits.
“There won’t be any trouble. Mr. Ellison doesn’t have anything left that’s worth it to Harvey.” No matter how insane Harvey was, he would not kill his biological grandfather.
“Actually, I just feel like Mr. Ellison doesn’t deserve all this.”
Mr. Ellison was extremely kind to Harvey. Who would expect Harvey to hide such resentment towards him?
Jared comforted Nicole. “Mr. Ellison leaves Harvey alone because of the guilt he feels for what happened last time.”
“And it was because of this that Mr. Ellison pent up a lot of things and fell sick,” Nicole said sadly. “If Mr. Ellison refuses to recover on his own, he’d only get weaker.”
“This is up to Mr. Ellison himself.” Jared’s eyes darkened. ‘If Mr. Ellison never forgives himself, no one can help him.’
“We should visit him more often.” Perhaps, it would be helpful if they could lighten up Mr. Ellison’s mood.
Jared looked at Nicole and held her hands gently. “Just follow your heart.”
KNOCK, KNOCK.
“Come in.” Nicole looked up and turned towards the door.
As the door opened, Lester entered. Seeing that Jared was there, he seemed hesitant.
Nicole seemed to notice his reaction, so she questioned him straightforwardly, “Are there any updates about Lulu’s case?”
“Yes,” Lester replied.
He understood that Nicole was signaling him to speak directly. Then, he walked to the sofa and said, “Icyln’s personal assistant contacted those two siblings again. This time around, we gathered some evidence.”
“What does she want now?” Nicole raised her eyebrows.1 When Icyln looks for that pair, it’d definitely be something more than just a checkup.’
“She wants to frame Lulu. They’re going to stage a show in which the sister is sick and in danger. That way, Lulu would be in a difficult situation. In fact, they’d cancel her bail,” Lester said in a serious manner.
If they were not taking any precautions this time around and found some evidence, Lulu would be in huge trouble.
Nicole’s face darkened. If Lulu’s bail were to be canceled, it would not only affect her career and reputation, but also her wedding. After all, her wedding date was approaching.
“Ma’am, do you think we should report this immediately or put it on hold for now?” Lester asked.
Nicole narrowed her eyes and said coldly, “Let’s put it on hold.”
“Yes, ma’am,” Lester replied and left.
Nicole gritted her teeth. Although they gathered some evidence, exposing it would only interfere with their plan. She would have to wait a little longer.
Once her plan was complete, she would make sure they experienced the consequences of slander.
Knowing that Nicole was worried for Lulu, Jared comforted her. “Since we have the evidence now, everything will be fine.
“Yeah.” Nicole lightly nodded her head and said solemnly,” The wedding will go on as planned.”
For her to do this at such a time, Icyln must have been desperate and anxious to destroy the wedding. As long as Spencer and Lulu could not get married, she would stand a chance.
She really was a detailed person. Unfortunately, she used her skills in the wrong place. From the looks of it, San Joto could no longer accommodate her.
Chapter 2543
As the sun set, Nicole and Lulu stepped out of DillCorp together.
Lulu looked around and muttered, “Why hasn’t June come yet?”
“You’re just excited to try on your wedding dress, right?” Nicole teased.
Lulu began to blush and replied shyly, “I’m not the only one who’s trying out the dresses.”
“Calm down. She’s here.” As soon as she finished speaking, Nicole smiled and waved at June, who was approaching them.
“Sorry, I’m late,” June explained, standing in front of the two girls. “The traffic was quite bad on the way here.”
“Don’t worry. We just came out as well.” Nicole smiled.” Let’s go! Don’t make them wait for you.”
June and Lulu replied, “Let’s go!”
The girls got into the car and headed to the styling room which they had chosen.
They had decided on that styling room a while back. Since their wedding dresses had arrived that day, the girls set a date to try it out together.
When they arrived, Spencer was already there, waiting for them. The only person missing was Samuel.
“You girls are here!” Spencer approached the girls and added, “Samuel’s stuck in traffic. He’ll arrive later.”
Lulu turned to June and teased her, “The both of you are truly made for each other.”
June rolled her eyes at Lulu. “Go put on your dress!”
“We should go together. When Samuel arrives, you’re going to make him blind with your glam,” said Lulu, pulling June and walking into the shop.
“I’ll be with them,” Nicole told Spencer and followed after the girls.
The stylist immediately came over to find their dressed and helped the girls put it on.
“Nicole, how’s Lulu’s case going? June questioned Nicole while she was putting on the dress.
“Don’t worry, nothing will happen,” Nicole reassured and then remained silent.
“But I heard that girl, Icyln, is quite arrogant. Are you sure nothing will happen?” June was still a little worried.
Nicole sighed. “I guess she assumed that she’s getting some support because her teacher will be there. Or perhaps, the wedding date is approaching, so she feels like she would lose everything if she doesn’t try hard.”
“In that case, I wish that the wedding is tomorrow.” June smiled. Once the wedding is over, everything will calm down “No matter what, Lulu and Spencer will still be together.” Nicole’s gaze darkened. It had always been Icyln who was delusional. Icyln thought that she would stand a chance as long as Spencer was not married yet. However, Nicole trusted that Lulu and Spencer would never leave each other, even if they did not get married.
June nodded in agreement. “You’re right.”
Spencer and Lulu’s relationship was built on a strong foundation. Their relationship was not bound by marriage.
“Alright, does this look good?” Lulu had finished changing, so she asked for the girls’ opinion.
June and Nicole turned to look at Lulu, seemingly somewhat annoyed. “We’re worried for you, but you’re acting as if nothing happened.”
Lulu bit her lip and said, “Things won’t change even if I worry about it. So why not cherish the present?”
“You mean present and future,” Nicole corrected. Then, she patted her friend’s shoulders and said, “Don’t worry. Lester found some evidence. You’ll be fine.”
“Really?” Lulu eyes glimmered.
“Of course! I’d never lie to you.” Nicole smiled. “I’ve told you earlier. All you have to do is sit back, relax and be a happy bride.”
Chapter 2544
Nicole could tell that Lulu was still bothered by the matter. That was why Lulu talked about cherishing the present moment. Perhaps, Lulu felt that if she really could defend herself from slander, she would not be able to complete the wedding with Spencer.
“How is it? Are you guys done?” Samuel’s voice sounded from outside.
June and Lulu looked at each other and said, “Let’s go outside.”
“June? Where-” Samuel called out to June again when he did not get a response. However, the moment he saw June walk out, he stopped talking.
Looking at June, who was holding up her dress and slowly walking towards him, Samuel’s eyes became focused, and he could not look away.
June started to grow shy from Samuel’s gaze. She could not help but blush. “Don’t just stare at me. Is this dress okay?”
Samuel came back to his senses and nodded vigorously.” Fine. Perfectly fine.”
It looked really good and was a good fit for June.
In turn, Spencer stared at Lulu. With a wide smile, he said,” It’s very pretty. What do you think? Does it fit?”
Lulu held the dress and spun around once. “I think it’s just
okay.”
“You should tell us if it’s not the perfect fit. We can still get it altered,” Spencer gently reminded.
“I think it still fits.” Lulu tried moving around again.
“That’s great.” Spencer looked at Lulu carefully, and the smile in his eyes deepened.
Looking at how sweet those two were, June could not help but tease Lulu. “Now you don’t have to worry about anything. It
Hearing this, Spencer frowned a little. “What should she worry about?”
“Nothing. I guess I was a little too anxious, but I’m fine now,” Lulu explained, not mentioning Icyln’s issue to Spencer. She did not want to put him in a difficult position.
“That’s right. She’s getting married soon, so it’s normal for her emotions to fluctuate.” Knowing what Lulu was trying to do, June played along with her.
Samuel saw that the both of them were done with their wedding dresses, so he reminded them, “You girls should try on some dinner dresses.”
June and Lulu went ahead to try on other dresses.
This time around, Nicole did not follow the girls. Instead, she stayed with Spencer and Samuel to wait for June and Lulu.
“You don’t have to be here actually.” Samuel knew that
Nicole specially came for June and Lulu. And because of this appointment, Nicole had asked Jared to fetch Nolan and Lana.
“I’m here to watch them.” After all, her best friends were about to get married. Nicole was cherishing that moment. When they hang out together in the future, Lulu and June would carry the status of Nicole’s sister-in-law.
Spencer had a different opinion. With Nicole around, June and Lulu would be in a better mood. “At least you can comfort them while you’re here. Didn’t they mention some pre-wedding anxiety?”
Nicole glanced at Spencer and smiled. She did not mention what happened to Lulu.
She knew that Spencer’s attitude towards Icyln was all just volunteer work. It was only because he had a promise with his teacher. Spencer did not really care much about Icyln, so it was only normal for him not to realize Icyln’s feelings for him.
While Nicole was lost in her thoughts, Spencer’s phone rang.
He looked at the caller ID and immediately declined the call.
“Why aren’t you picking up?” Nicole questioned. She could tell that Spencer’s mood had changed drastically.
“It’s unimportant.” Spencer’s voice was cold. He really did not want to take Icyln’s call.
Realizing that there was something fishy, Nicole could not help but ask, “What’s going on?”
“Nothing.” Spencer was still persistent on keeping his mouth shut.
However, Nicole found it even weirder so she questioned, “If something’s going on, you can talk to us. Maybe, we could help you solve it. Your wedding day is coming soon. I’m sure you won’t want things to go wrong.”
Chapter 2545
Spencer still insisted on keeping things to himself.
Just as he was about to say something, he held himself back.
He hesitated for a moment before speaking again.
"It's Icyln.
She said that she has feelings for me, but I've rejected her." Spencer did not expect Icyln to pretend as if nothing had happened even after his rejection.
She still called him on the phone as usual.
In fact, her calls were getting more and more frequent.
Nicole narrowed her gaze and questioned, "Spencer, do you really want Icyln to stay at San Joto?" "Uh...
Lactually don't want her here." However, it was not up to Spencer to decide whether she could stay or leave.
Initially, he was fine with taking care of Icyln upon his teacher's request.
Now that he understood Icyln's intentions, he would not want Icyln to stay.
Or else, she might create more trouble in the future.
"That's good." Nicole seemed satisfied.
“What?" Spencer asked in confusion.
He did not understand what Nicole meant.
After giving it some thought, Nicole smirked.
"Just wait.
It's a wedding gift from me to you and Lulu." “What's the gift? Do I havea share in it too?" June jokingly asked.
Just as June and Lulu walked out, they heard Nicole's words.
"I'm afraid you're not getting a share in this one.
But the rest of the gifts were the same.
The both of you are getting one each." Nicole smiled and changed the conversation topic smoothly.
June seemed to understand Nicole, so she did not question her further.
Instead, she pulled Samuel and asked, "What do you think of this dress?" "It's great! All of it suits you well." Samuel felt that his eyes were blurry from seeing all the dresses.
Every single one of them looked good on June.
June and Lulu continued trying on all of the custom-made dresses.
When they were done, their legs were trembling.
"Come on, I'm treating all of you today." Samuel raised his hands, sounding generous.
"I'm going to eat to my heart's content," June remarked, rubbing her stomach.
"As you wish." Samuel pulled June's hand and brought her out.
Spencer stood next to Lulu and said in a gentle voice, "Are you okay?" "I'm hungry too." Lulu sighed.
This was the first time she discovered how physically draining dress fitting could be.
"Samuel is treating us today.
You can eat all you want." Spencer patted Lulu's head.
He knew that Lulu loved to eat, so it must not be easy for her to feel hungry.
Nicole was cringing at their affectionate interactions.
So, she teased them, "Hey, you guys should go ahead.
I'm going home." "It's already late! There won't be any dinner left if you go home.
Come and join us," Spencer tried to persuade.
Lulu did not want Nicole to leave either, so she echoed, "That's right.
You've been here with us for so long, you must be hungry too." "Come on.
We'll eat somewhere nearby." June raised her voice and called out to them.
The three of them quickly caught up and June pointed toa restaurant.
"It's the one in front.
I'm too tired to walk now." “I'm okay with it," Lulu agreed.
Nicole smiled.
"It seems like the two of you are really hungry." "I'm starving." June came over and hugged Nicole's arms.
"Come on, let's eat.” Soon, the whole bunch arrived at a nearby restaurant.
It was past the dinner peak hours, so the restaurant was not crowded.
The atmosphere could be considered quiet.
After they found a seat, they ordered their meal.
"Oh yes! I can finally eat a proper meal!" June seemed to be excited as her eyes were fixed in the direction of the kitchen.
"Do you think they'd assume you're trying to break into the kitchen?" Lulu looked at how June was staring, she could not help but tease June.
