Ch. 276..280: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 276-280

Chapter 276

He felt that the change in Mr. Riddle Sr.’s attitude toward Nicole was just too great.

It was not only because of the Rogers family but there was something else that he did not know hidden within.

Who was the doctor that Nicole found? So much so that the doctor could save Mr. Riddle Sr., who had a literal death sentence on his head. It was really a miracle.

He had witnessed how Mr. Riddle Sr. treated Daniel and Dillon today. ‘If it were not for my quick thinking, I probably would have ended up the same as Dillon.’

Thinking of this, a grim look appeared on Damien’s face.

It seemed like he could no longer underestimate Daniel’s family. Johnston Group Office. As he had met Nicole at Nottingbrook, the irritability within him had slowly subsided over the past two days as he let out a gentle smile.

Max was reporting to him the quarterly summary report of the current quarter, and seeing Jared in a good mood, he heaved a sigh of relief.

He did not need to think to know that only Nicole could control his boss’ emotions like that.

When Nicole was not around his boss, even a smile was a luxury. Yet, ever since meeting her, he had been smiling so brightly it was weird.

‘It seems like I’ve underestimated Miss Nicole’s place in the boss’ heart.’

Jared did not care about him being distracted as his phone suddenly lit up as a message came in.

He did not say much as he picked up his coat and walked out. Max looked at him for a few seconds before finally reacting and chasing after Jared.

Jared walked straight to the car, and before Max could even open the door for him, Jared had left him behind as he started the car and sped in a familiar direction. Max’s hand paused in midair as he looked at the puff of smoke left behind by the speeding car. He shook his head helplessly.

“Really…”

‘Once he got a woman, he straightaway forgets about his assistant.’ Jared did not have the time to care about Max’s feelings. Everything in his mind was cast aside for one single purpose.

To see her.

He could not be bothered why Zeke was beside her, nor did he care about how she could cure Mr. Riddle Sr.

Now that she is back, then he will go see her.

Nothing more. A few stray strands of hair fell before his eyes, yet they were very quickly blown aside by the strong wind pouring in through the open window, revealing his deep and beautiful eyes. It was so beautiful it was unreal. Nicole had thought that the school gate should be deserted when she returned to school at this hour. Yet when she got off the car, she found out that a group of girls was standing at the entrance. Nicole did not know what they were doing. She simply just walked ahead and wanted to walk around them.

Just as she was about to step onto the school grounds, she saw an extremely cool pink sports car, and someone very familiar was standing in front of the car.

When the other party saw her, he immediately walked over. As shadows gave way to light, Nicole could see the person’s magnificent face clearly. When she saw him, her tiredness dissipated.

Ignoring the gaze of others, she walked toward him as a light smile appeared on her face. When Jared saw her smile, his expression softened. “Your grandpa’s matter is settled?” Nicole looked at his handsome face and nodded. “Why are you here?” Jared looked at her without replying. The pleading in his eyes seemed to be overflowing. Nicole looked at his attractive eyes, and the glow in his eyes was brighter than the starlight. She then understood something. Nicole then smiled. A smile as pure as snow, with a tinge of understanding. :

 

Chapter 277

Chapter 277 “It’s still early. Make me a cup of coffee.”

Jared did not speak as he blinked at Nicole as he walked toward the cafe.

Nicole’s voice rang out behind him. “What? Don’t want your car?” A gentle smile appeared at the corners of Jared’s lips. ‘She’s already here. What’s the need for the car?’

The two walked side by side. Under the street lamp, a beautiful silhouette was formed.

Inside the coffee shop, Klaus was back to being the counter staff. As he was wiping the cup out of boredom as he leaned against the bar, he was shocked when he saw Jared walk in. The moment he caught sight of the smile on the latter’s face, he instantly whispered ‘Good god’ inwardly. ‘Why is boss, who had been grumpy the whole day long, coming in now with a smile…’

‘Wait.’

Sure enough, when he saw Nicole behind Jared, he quietly put down the cup in his hand as he minimized his sense of existence.

Nicole walked to the place she and Jared usually sat and suddenly realized that he had indeed changed many of her habits. She actually did not feel any discomfort sitting before such a bright yet fragile window.

Jared leaned onto the table as he looked at her. Under the gentle light, one could feel the allure and warmth in his eyes.

“Order something?” Nicole looked at him as she leaned slightly backward. Her long, slightly curled hair flowed down, looking almost picturesque. She then looked at Jared’s handsome face as she opened her lips slightly

“Bourbon Santos.”

‘What?’

When Klaus, who had been playing dead by the side, heard the name of that coffee, his eyes widened as he looked at Nicole and then at Jared.

When Jared heard the coffee’s name, a glint appeared in his eyes. Yet his expression did not change as he said with some regret. “Brazilian coffee single blend quality is not too great. You’ll have to wait, is it okay?”

Nicole looked at him, yet there was no disappointment in her eyes. She looked at his face as a beautiful smile appeared on hers. Her eyes seemed to be filled with some kind of faint emotions.

‘A wait is indeed required.’

The two looked at each other with tacit understanding as if some sort of affection was flowing in the air.

Just at this moment, a low cry of pain rang out from behind them.

When Nicole heard the sound, she immediately turned over. It was a young student clutching his chest in pain as he fell from his chain and fainted as he lay on the ground.

Seeing him like this, his companions immediately leaped to the side in fear. The circle of students around him also hurriedly dodged to the side. Seeing the person like this, they were worried about getting into trouble and did not dare to go over.

When Jared saw this, he frowned a little.

Just as he was about to do something, he saw Nicole standing up and walking toward the student. She quickly came to his side and furrowed her brows as she looked at his pale face.

Nicole looked at his classmate to the side and raised her jaw a little. “Help me raise his neck.”

The boy hesitated and did not dare to get close. Just as Nicole was about to say something else, Jared’s clear voice rang out. “Let me.”

Seeing that he stretched his hand out without hesitation and held the boy’s neck in his hand, pushing him slightly higher than his heart, a look of appreciation appeared in Nicole’s eyes. He could always understand what she was thinking in an instant. She did not delay and instead pulled out a leather pouch from her bag and pulled out a thin silver needle.

The girls around her saw this and covered their mouths in fear.

‘Oh my god, what is this woman up to?’ ‘Does she want to kill someone?’

 

Chapter 278

Nicole ignored their whispers as her fingers grabbed onto the row of cold silver needles, her expression entirely focused.

Everyone could not help but train their eyes on her finger movements. Her fair white hand was slowly moving along a black leather. Under the silver glint, it had an alluring beauty to it.

The hand slowly stopped at the front of a one-millimeter – thick needle. With a slight force from her index and middle fingers, she pulled that needle out between her fingertips. The glint reflected on Nicole’s face as she carefully held the needle between her fingers and, with a flick of her hand, gently pierced onto the center of Jimmy’s brow.

Her movement was smooth, without any sign of rust or shaking.

Everyone watched with bated breath at this beautiful yet dangerous scene, and no one dared to exhale.

Even so, a rather shrill female voice suddenly came from the back. “Aren’t you that last placing Nicole? What are you doing here pretending that you know the needle technique? Do you want to kill him?”

There were already questioning voices within the crowd, but they were all fascinated by Nicole’s elegant movements and forgot about it.

Now that the female voice mentioned it, they started to look at Nicole with a trace of doubt in their eyes.

For her to stick such a thick needle into him, she isn’t saving him but killing him!

Plus, most of the people there were students, and some of them recognized Nicole.

And soon, confrontational voices started to appear among the crowd as they looked warily at Nicole with a faint look of fear in their eyes.

“Let’s call an ambulance and get professional medics to save him!”

“Yeah! This Nicole is a loser who doesn’t know anything. What should we do if he dies?”

“Let’s call an ambulance. We cannot trust Nicole!” The first girl who spoke gleefully watched the look in the eyes of the crowd, slowly turning from admiration to disgust as she continued to pour fuel into the fire. “Hurry up and pull him aside. If Nicole kills him, all of you here will be accomplices!”

Those people looked at each other as they gritted their teeth upon hearing that.

They had to do it. They cannot allow themselves to be tagged as an accomplice to murder.

They walked over and scrambled to try to move the fainted boy away. A cold glint appeared in Nicole’s eyes as she looked at the girl. The chill in her eyes was enough to freeze the latter’s blood.

She recognized her. This was the girl who was chased out after trying to strike up a conversation with Jared last time.

She still had the cheek to show up here.

The girl trembled as she caught Nicole’s gaze, yet she still held on to look back at Nicole. There was no trace of guilt in her eyes, only jealousy, and glee.

Nicole was outnumbered, and with the crowd now Nicole’s enemy, she wanted to see what she could do to her.

‘Who asked her to seduce the man I liked!’

Nicole looked at the foolish crowd rushing at her, and just as she was about to say something, a faint voice rang out.

“Don’t move, all of you.”

Jared, who was opposite Nicole, lazily raised his eyebrows as his presence was in full force.

His tone was extremely plain, yet it inexplicably caused everyone rushing forward to all subconsciously stop moving.

Chapter 279

They felt that if they were to rush over, something terrifying would have happened.

The surroundings finally became quiet as Jared looked at Nicole with a look of comfort and trust in his eyes. “Go on.”

A faint glimmer flashed in Nicole’s eyes as she wasted no time. Her moves were steady and accurate as she plunged the needles into the various nerve points.

She was quick, her strength measured but not heavy. She slowly twisted and turned the needle with no trace of blood flowing out of the place she pierced.

Seeing that she had already started, even though everyone there was both disdainful and disgusted, they were so terrified they closed their eyes, not wishing to witness this cruel scene. Nicole’s expression did not change as she pulled out another two needles. This time, the needles were half as stick like the one before and were extremely sharp.

She quickly pierced the needles into the boy’s shoulder, and this time, she did not let up on her strength and pierced it into his body. Soon, a faint color of blood could be seen.

The nerve led to the brain.

She then moved her finger to the back and pulled out the last silver needle. That silver needle was so thin it was almost invisible. Yet it was almost twenty centimeters long. She gently held it between her fingertips. This time, she slowly inserted the needle into the boy’s chest cavity.

Straight down and unblocking his heart.

With four needles in, ten seconds in, the boy took a deep breath as if his throat was stuck by the backflow of air. Nicole quickly pulled out the needles and gave the boy a powerful slap on his back.

He instantly spat out a mouthful of black blood. His complexion, however, visibly improved with only the black and blue beneath his eyes and the dark yellowish tint between his eyes, revealing his physical weakness. His chest quickly recovered to its normal tempo as he slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Nicole.

Jimmy looked at the beautiful snow-white face before him in a daze as he mumbled. “Is this heaven?”

‘Otherwise, how can I meet an angel?’

Nicole said faintly. “No.You are still in the Royal Creek Institute, and it’s almost time for the exam.”

She looked at his stunned face, her voice extremely flat. “Don’t overdo everything. The same goes for your revision. Get up early and exercise. You still have a long life to live, so take good care of your heart.”

After saying that, she placed the exercise book in her hand onto his face, covering his somewhat confused face.

She looked at Jared, and he immediately let go. Suddenly bereft of support, the boy’s head knocked against the ground with a ‘Thud.’

That knock seemed to have woke him up as he held his exercise book and seemingly realized something

Seeing that he was fine, everyone could not help but laugh. After that, all of them realized something like the look in their eyes toward Nicole changed. All of them had seen that Jimmy had a cardiac arrest, and the reason they did not dare to come forward was afraid that he would die. They knew very well that

even if they called the ambulance, it would be too late, even if it only took the ambulance ten minutes to arrive.

Fortunately, Nicole was around to save his life.

Recalling that they were almost instigated by someone to stop Nicole, the group clenched their fist as they wanted to catch that instigating girl.

However, she had already fled long ago. Nicole and Jared stood up and looked at each other.

Jared smiled slightly, and Nicole’s expression too softened somewhat.

How could she not be touched by Jared’s unconditional trust in her?

Chapter 280

Jimmy lay on the ground and finally figured out what had just happened. He sprung up and felt his heart that was beating once more. He looked glad to have survived. ‘I really thought I was as good as dead when I had a cardiac arrest just now. Thankfully, she saved me!’ he thought.

He watched Nicole’s slender and tall figure with a perplexed expression. Jimmy was a huge fan of Snow Riddle. When the news of Snow Riddle being bullied by Nicole surfaced on the forum, he was outraged and indignant. Not only did he continuously smear her reputation online, but he also flung a heavy stone at Nicole’s house one night. He was even a little displeased when Nicole flexibly dodged it. ‘I was so close; how did she get so lucky?’ he thought at the time. However, now that he was feeling his alive and beating heart, cold sweat poured down his forehead.

SSC

‘Nicole isn’t the lucky one. I am! I almost killed my savior!’he thought. Jimmy paled further at the thought of this. He felt his heart constricting once more and almost fainted again.

Nicole noticed his discomfort. With a solemn expression, she retrieved a small white tablet from her pocket. Then, she broke it in half, walked up to Jimmy, and stuffed half of it into his mouth.

After that, she shouted at the people who came with Jimmy.

“Water!”

They quickly turned around and handed Nicole the water in front of Jimmy. Nicole had a blank expression. After taking the bottle, she grabbed Jimmy by his jaw and poured water into his mouth.

After Jimmy had swallowed the drug, it took effect very quickly. He took a deep breath before turning to look at Nicole with a troubled look in his eyes. However, he realized that at the end of the day, what she

did for him was far greater than his ego. He lowered his head and bowed deeply at Nicole. “Thank you for saving me, Nicole.” Jimmy thanked her but did not get up. He gritted his teeth and continued speaking. “One more thing, I was the one who threw that stone previously.” “I’m so sorry!” ‘I must have been blind. How could Nicole, someone who saved a person she did not know, bully the gentle-looking Snow Riddle? Plus, there was only one photo. I didn’t even get to see what happened before and after. Why was I stupid enough to be manipulated by these people?’ Jimmy revealed a pained expression at the thought of this. After his near-death experience, he felt as though he had flipped on a switch. Everything that

confused him was as clear as day to him now.

Nicole looked at his genuinely regretful expression. She, on the other hand, was not bothered,

‘I was about to forget the incident from that day if he didn’t bring it up,’ she thought.

She merely patted his shoulder after hearing his words. Considering how he had a near-death experience, her tone actually sounded a little gentle.

“It’s alright. I forgive you.”

Jimmy initially thought that Nicole was a difficult person and that a storm would be awaiting him. He never expected to be forgiven this easily.

Her forgiveness made him want to cry.

‘This is what true gentleness looks like,’ he thought.

He started to choke up a little and sounded like he was traumatized.

“I almost killed you, I…”

‘I’m a sinner,’ he thought. Nicole sighed helplessly as she watched him. Her voice sounded far away but close at the same time, “I told you, it’s alright.”

She did not care about what happened. After all, he did not have what it took to actually harm her.

‘Since he has apologized, it’s fine.’ she thought.
