Ch. 2911..2915: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 2911-2915

Chapter 2911

Ellar was caught off guard, quickly composing himself as he rolled down his car window.

Spotting Samuel, he couldn't resist an eye roll and asked, 'Why does it have to be you?" Samuel, with a curious tone, responded, "Funny, I was about to ask you the same thing.

What brings you here? Why parked your car here?" "Just gearing up for work," Ellar responded, attempting to sound casual.

"I might as well join you then," Samuel declared, opening the car door and hopping in.

Ellar shot him a look.

"You're surprisingly free today, aren't you?" Samuel shrugged.

"Sort of.

Had an event, but it was a no-go.

Now I'm here, ran into you by chance." With no real alternative, Ellar started the car, muttering, "Lucky me." ‘Can't a guy even wallow in self-pity in peace?' he thought, a twinge of irritation surfacing.

'Is it too much to ask for a moment alone with my thoughts about a love that never started?! Samuel, picking up on the mood, tilted his head.

"Something up? You seem a bit out of sorts." Ellar grumbled quietly, "It's nothing," while secretly rolling his eyes.

‘Might as well face the music.

It's not like my heartache's going to vanish overnight.' “So, heard you were at the hospital a bit.

Everything okay?" Samuel inquired, concern evident in his voice.

Ellar's expression tightened.

'Why does he have to mention the last thing I want to talk about?" he thought.

"No, you're mistaken.

I've been at the office," Ellar answered tersely, clearly not interested in discussing it further.

Samuel glanced back toward the hospital's direction.

“Ah, so you've been visiting someone there after work?" Samuel guessed, thinking Ellar might be seeing Patricia.

He didn't pry any further.

‘No serious issues between them, it seems.

All good then,' Samuel concluded in his mind.

Ellar glanced at Samuel.

"Don't you have somewhere else to be, even with your plans canceled?" ‘Out of everyone, why did I bump into Samuel? So frustrating,’ Ellar brooded internally.

“Ah, don't even mention it, I've been abandoned," Samuel grumbled about his house being renovated, his room taken over, and not having anywhere to go.

June was at work, and Samuel, usually alone at his place, now couldn't even return to his own home.

“That does sound pretty rough," Ellar raised an eyebrow and suggested, "How about we go for a drink?" "Drinking?" Samuel sounded surprised.

"Don't you have to go to the office?" "Missing one day won't hurt," Ellar reassured him.

"So, are you coming or not?" Samuel shrugged, "Sure, let's go.

But you know I don't drink." "If you don't drink, what's the point of you coming?" Ellar asked, somewhat annoyed.

"I'm there to keep you company.

You look like you could use a drink.

I'll just have a soft drink or something," Samuel said, seeing it as a way to kill time.

Ellar frowned, puzzled.

"Why don't you drink?" "Getting ready to be a dad," Samuel replied matter-of-factly.

Ellar ground his teeth in frustration, regretting he even asked.

It was him who ended up feeling worse.

Soon, Ellar parked the car in front of aclub, and they both headed inside.

Meanwhile, at the Riddle Corporation, Nicole had just arrived at the executive floor and stepped out of the elevator.

"Nicole," someone called out, and she turned to look.

"Sean, Steve," Nicole recognized them and walked over.

"Let's talk inside," Sean suggested, pushing open the door to his office.

Once inside, Sean got straight to the point, "They've indeed arranged someone to pose as a lawyer to get in touch with Uncle Damien." "That's good to know," Nicole replied, a hint of coldness in her smile.

Meanwhile, at the Riddle Corporation, Nicole had just arrived at the executive floor and stepped out of the elevator.

“Nicole,” someone called out, and she turned to look.

“Sean, Steve,” Nicole recognized them and walked over.

“Let’s talk inside,” Sean suggested, pushing open the door to his office.

“Okay,” Nicole agreed, hanging up the phone.

Nicole had Lulu arranging for someone to pick up Samuel and Ellar. After Lulu did so, she returned to Nicole’s office.

“What’s going on with him?” Lulu asked, clearly puzzled.

Nicole shrugged helplessly, “Guess he was just feeling down. ” She briefly explained to Lulu what Samuel had told her.

Lulu nodded in understanding. “Ah, so he was just putting on a brave front. Warned Charlie to treat Patricia well, then turned around and ended up crying himself.”

“What else could it be?” Nicole sighed, seeing that Ellar genuinely liked Patricia.

“But I’m curious,” Lulu said, frowning slightly. “Patricia and Charlie don’t really seem like a couple, do they? I mean, they care about each other, but it doesn’t feel like a romantic thing.”

Nicole raised an eyebrow slightly. Lulu was quite perceptive.

She hesitated to discuss Patricia and Charlie’s relationship, considering their identities. Revealing too much could endanger their safety.

“Lulu, what if Ellar can’t move on?” Lulu was already worried about him.

Nicole frowned slightly. “He’ll get through it eventually.”

Nicole thought, ‘If Patricia really decides that way, then maybe Ellar never really had a chance.’ She then said,” Someday, Ellar will have to grow up and face it.”

“Hopefully,” Lulu sighed, shaking her head.

As they were talking, some noise from outside caught their attention. Lulu went to open the office door.

The guys who were sent to pick them up walked in with Samuel, carrying a completely out-of-it Ellar between them.

“Put him on the couch,” Nicole instructed, frowning slightly, then turned to Lulu. “Can you get him some water?”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

“Sure,” Lulu replied and quickly headed out, followed by the assistant who had helped bring Ellar.

Samuel shook his head in annoyance. “He said he was fine, but look at him now. Should’ve never gone out with him.”

He regretted just saying hi to Ellar; now, seeing the mess, he wished he hadn’t. ‘If only I hadn’t greeted him, he would’ve just gone to work like normal,’ Samuel thought.

Nicole glanced at Ellar and said with a concerned frown,” Who knows when he’ll wake up.”

“Hard to say,” Samuel replied, looking at Ellar. ‘He didn’t just drink; he practically drowned himself in booze.’

“He’s hurting inside. Maybe he’ll feel better when he wakes up,” Nicole mused. ‘Sometimes, you just need to let it all out.’

“Acting like he’s fine, and then he spills everything once he’s drunk,” Samuel muttered, remembering how pitiful Ellar had looked crying. He couldn’t help but feel a bit disgusted.

Nicole gave Samuel a disapproving look. “You’re laughing at him instead of comforting him?”

“No, it’s not like that,” Samuel defended himself. “If I didn’t care, I would’ve left him at the club. I stayed because, well, heartbreak happens. He has to face it.”

Nicole, somewhat exasperated, said, “If you’re done here, you can go. We’ll take care of him.”

“I’ve got nothing else to do. I might as well stay and help out, ” Samuel insisted. He knew he couldn’t manage Ellar on his own, and neither could Nicole and Lulu.

Just then, Lulu returned with the tea. “Here’s the water.”

Samuel took the cup from her. ‘Til handle this.”

Nicole looked over and, seeing Samuel’s insistence on staying, let him be.

Sean and Steve also arrived at Nicole’s office after hearing the news.

Glancing at Ellar, Sean suggested with a frown, “Maybe we should just take him home.”

“That won’t work, he refuses to go,” Samuel explained. “I tried convincing him earlier, but he’s adamant. He says he can’t go home like this, it would worry his family.”

“Are you sure he’s worried about his family, and not just embarrassed?” Steve asked skeptically.

“Even if that’s true,” Samuel shrugged, “sending him home in this state would definitely worry Uncle Dexter and Aunt Emma.”

Nicole agreed, “Sean, let’s just keep him here. It’s better not to worry them.”

“Alright, we’ll leave him here. But is it okay for you?” Sean asked, still hesitant.

“It’s fine. This way, I can keep an eye on him,” Nicole nodded. Seeing Ellar out-of-it, she felt more at ease monitoring him herself.

“I’m here too, don’t worry,” Samuel volunteered.

Steve glanced at Samuel with slight annoyance. “This mess is your doing, after all.”

“I didn’t mean for this to happen. It’s not like I could just leave him at the club,” Samuel said, feeling a bit wronged. At that moment, he couldn’t think of anyone but Nicole who would be willing to take care of Ellar.

“What about after work?” Sean asked, doubtful. It didn’t look like Ellar would wake up anytime soon.

“We’ll just let him stay here. Even if he wakes up, he’s familiar with the place and can take care of himself,” Nicole decided after a moment of thought.

Considering Ellar’s condition, it seemed best not to move him. “He can just sleep it off here,” Nicole concluded.

“Sounds good,” everyone agreed, and it was decided to let Ellar stay in Nicole’s office.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

“Don’t worry, guys, you can go ahead with your work,” Nicole reassured Sean and Steve.

After they left, she turned to Samuel, “You can head back too. If anything comes up, I’ll get someone to help.”

“I think I’ll stay till the end of the day,” Samuel decided, still a bit concerned.

“Nicole, you probably won’t get much work done this afternoon. How about I take care of the paperwork?” Lulu suggested.

“No need, it’s not urgent,” Nicole replied, shaking her head. She figured she could handle it tomorrow.

Hearing this, Lulu nodded, “Alright, I’ll leave you to it then,” and left to attend to her own work.

Soon, only Nicole, Samuel, and a still-sleeping Ellar were left in the office.

Samuel let out a sigh, resigning himself to the situation.’ Might as well stick around,’ he thought.

As the end of the day approached, Ellar still hadn’t woken up.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Nicole, thinking it was Lulu, called out, “Come in.”

But to her surprise, it was Patricia who entered.

“Ms. Riddle, I need to discuss something…” Patricia began, then paused abruptly as her eyes fell on Ellar, sleeping on the couch.

‘Why is he here?’ she wondered, her brow furrowing as the strong smell of alcohol reached her.

Instantly, she realized what happened. ‘He’s drunk?!’ Her expression turned to one of confusion. ‘Why did he drink so much?’

“What is it?” Nicole asked, her voice calm but her eyes narrowing slightly in concern.

Chapter 2915

Patricia quickly regained her composure and said, “There’s been movement from the Eastern Falcon at the hospital. Some of our guys got hurt, so I think we should discharge Charlie.”

“Recovering in the hospital is faster, but it’s too dangerous now,” she added with concern.

Nicole raised an eyebrow slightly and replied, “That’s up to you guys to decide.”

Patricia bit her lip, then spoke seriously, “I suggest we keep Charlie’s discharge secret and then arrange for…”

Understanding Patricia’s intention, Nicole pondered for a moment before responding, “That could work. Let’s try it.”

“Can I manage the personnel for this? I’ll take responsibility for the whole thing,” Patricia asked, eager to take the initiative, especially since Max was busy and Charlie, being injured, couldn’t be involved in the mission.

“Sure, I’ll leave it to you,” Nicole agreed, realizing it was probably the best course of action. Max was occupied with more critical tasks, and Patricia, who proposed the plan and knew the hospital well, seemed the right choice.

“I’ll go arrange it then,” Patricia said decisively.

Before leaving, Patricia glanced at Ellar, her brows furrowed in concern, then quickly left with determined steps.

Nicole’s eyes flickered with a meaningful look. She had noticed Patricia’s every move since she entered and could tell that Patricia wasn’t entirely indifferent to Ellar.

“Hey,” Samuel, who had also picked up on something, leaned in and asked Nicole, “Didn’t you sense it?”

He thought to himself, ‘Guess Patricia isn’t as indifferent to Ellar as she pretends.’

Nicole glanced at Samuel and advised, “Just act like you don’t know anything.”

“You and your secrets,” Samuel said, more curious now.” What’s really going on?”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

Nicole stood up, concluding the conversation, “It means don’t meddle in other people’s business. It’s time to leave.

Let’s go.”

“If you want, you can stay and look after him,” Nicole said with a smile before leaving.

Seeing this, Samuel glanced at Ellar, shook his head, and followed Nicole out.

‘It should be fine; he looks like he’ll be out till tomorrow morning,’ Samuel thought, not overly concerned.

“Nicole, you’re leaving?” Lulu came out of the office just in time to catch up with her.

“Yes,” Nicole replied, slowing down her pace to wait for Lulu. They walked together toward the elevator.

“Why didn’t you lock the door?” Lulu asked, a hint of worry in her voice.

“Ellar’s still in there,” Nicole answered calmly.

“But what if he doesn’t wake up? Is it really okay to leave your office unlocked?” Lulu asked, still concerned.

“It’s fine,” Nicole reassured her as they stepped into the elevator.

Samuel paused for a moment before entering the elevator, as if he thought of something, but then it seemed like it slipped his mind.

Meanwhile, Ellar, the only one left behind, was still asleep, feeling the effects of the alcohol.

As the night deepened, Ellar frowned, feeling extremely thirsty. He mumbled, “Water.”

After murmuring a few more times, a water cup was brought to his lips.

He gulped down the water, still not quenched, and kept asking for more. After drinking three cups, he felt a bit better and closed his eyes to sleep again.

Patricia, who had been watching over him, put down the water cup and sighed, “Why did you have to drink himself into this state?”

Suddenly, Ellar called out, “Patricia, don’t go.” Then he started crying miserably, “Patricia, I like you, I really do.”
