Ch. 296..300: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 296-300
Chapter 296
At this moment, Edwin was casually scrolling through his phone, and his originally bored look suddenly changed when he saw something.He looked at Harvey, who was working on some documents, and made a clicking sound for the latter to look at the thing in his hand.
Harvey originally gave Edwin an impatient look, yet when he saw the content on the mobile phone, his expression immediately changed.
"What is this?" Edwin shrugged.
Someone had posted an ambiguous photo of Nicole and Stanley together on the school forum.
And someone also put up the photo of Harvey confessing to Nicole back then as well.
This set off a tsunami as many left very unpleasant comments about Nicole, saying that she was not only seducing Harvey but also being intimate with the Riddle brothers and that she As Harvey looked at the unsightly comments, he felt his blood rushing into his head, his face looking so grim as if he was about to murder someone.
‘‘Nicole is my prey.Only I have the final say on whether she was good or bad.The others have no right to do so!’’
As he thought of that, he grabbed his car keys and headed out.His entire person radiating an icy chill.
Seeing his demeanor, Edwin raised his eyebrow.
"Where are you going?"
Harvey did not answer him but instead ran out of the company as he started his car and raced toward the Royal Creek Institute.He sped all the way there and parked the car directly beneath the student council building.He straight up ignored the staff on duty as he rushed toward the top floor.
Stanley was in a meeting with other cadres of the student council.
Seeing Harvey coming in angrily, he raised his hand to stop the meeting as Stanley got up and walked out.
Harvey was the grandson of the school principal and was also a member of the Royal Creek Institute student council.
However, he rarely showed up for meetings.
Harvey coming here aside, his expression was so sullen one had to wonder what was going on.
The two stood in the hallway, and Harvey suddenly grabbed Stanley’s collar, his voice almost a hiss.
"I thought you lot loved Nicole so much it was but an act, but I did not expect it to be fake!" Stanley was stunned.
Harvey had always been calm and measured, so why was he so agitated today?
"I don’t understand what you’re on about."
Even a gentleman would get angry having his collar grabbed like that as Stanley unceremoniously pushed Harvey’s hand aside, and his normally calm voice had a tinge of anger to it.
"Master Harvey, I’m afraid we are not that close.Also, my little sister has nothing to do with you, so please mind your own business."
‘‘Since when did Harvey have the right to interfere in the matters of the Riddle family?’’
When Harvey saw Stanley being so indifferent, he was even more furious.
After letting out a sneer, he struck a punch out toward Stanley without any restraint.
If the blow was to land, it would cause some serious injury.
Stanley took a backstep and intercepted his fist as his voice turned icy.
"Harvey Ellison, have you gone mad?"
Harvey was unaffected as he lashed a kick out of nowhere.
Stanley could not dodge in time and almost fell onto the ground.
Stanley was clearly infuriated by Harvey as a cold glint appeared in his eyes, and he struck at Harvey like a thunderclap.
Many people who were passing by were so shocked they gasped.
The usually warm and gentle Stanley was fighting.
And his opponent was the gentle Harvey! Harvey was angry within, feeling that these lots were just pretending to care, but in fact, they did not care about Nicole at all, allowing her to be bullied online.
Stanley, on the other hand, was assaulted out of the blue and had no reason not to fight back.
Chapter 297
The two kept exchanging blows, and soon, both were bruised all over.
With Stanley being attacked, someone soon called Spencer and Samuel over.
When the two arrived and saw Stanley fighting with Harvey, they were shocked, but Spencer reacted faster as he kicked Samuel in the butt and spat, "What are you staring there for? Pull them away!"
Only then did Samuel react as they rushed over and each pulling one back, taking several blows in the process.It was only when the four were completely separated that they were panting for air.
Spencer held on to Stanley, and he had taken two kicks from Harvey in the waist.
It hurt so bad that he could not maintain a dignified look.
As he seethed in pain, he asked, "Stanley, what the hell are you two doing? Why are you guys fighting?"
Stanley had never fought anymore after fourth grade in elementary school.
Although Stanley’s face had no bruises, he was punched several times in the ribs by Harvey.
It took him all his might to maintain his demeanor, and when he heard Spencer, even his usually temperate self was on the verge of exploding.
"Ask him then!"
‘If the latter had not acted like a maniac, how would he end up in such a sorry state?’ Samuel then panted as he asked, "Master Harvey, what’s wrong with the two of you? Why were you guys fighting all of a sudden?"
Harvey was originally sneering as he looked at the two.
When he heard that, he turned around and back.
Just as he was about to say something, he seemed to realize something as he looked toward Samuel and asked somewhat worriedly, "What’s wrong with YOU?"
Both Stanley and Spencer also looked over, and when they saw Samuel’s face, they were shocked.
Samuel was standing there with two bruises around the eyes of his handsome face, looking no different than a badger.
He was a little giddy yet did not seem to have realized what was going on as he looked at the three of them blankly.
The moment he was stunned, a stream of blood slowly flowed down from his nose.
Samuel wiped his nose by reflex, and his pupils shrank upon seeing blood.
"Blood, Spencer, Stanley! I’m bleeding!"
With him that agitated, his nose twitched out of control, and blood flowed down his nose like a breached dam, Both Stanley and Spencer could no longer be bothered with Harvey as they ran over and dragged Samuel straight to the school infirmary, After some chaos, Samuel’s bleeding finally stopped as he speechlessly pointed at the two bruises on his face and said, "Can the two of you now tell me why the heck were you fighting?"
Stanley, too cast a puzzled look at Harvey.
He was not in the same year as Harvey, so they rarely communicated.
He supposed Harvey could finally tell him now why he suddenly came to fight him.
Harvey was wiping his bruised face with alcohol-soaked cotton, and when he heard the voices, he sneered as he flicked his phone to reflect a page and tossed it to them.
"Just look at this yourself!"
Both Stanley and Spencer quickly grabbed the phone, and as they looked on, anger replaced their originally confused expression.
Samuel was leaning back so he could not see what it was, but as a twin, he could sense what Spencer felt as he subconsciously let out a curse.
"Those fucking sons of the b*tch!"
Chapter 298
Stanley oddly did not reprimand him for swearing this time as he stood up with a gloomy face as he looked at Harvey with a tinge of guilt and gratitude in his eyes.
"I shouldn’t have retaliated." He said sincerely.
Harvey looked at him and rubbed his face somewhat helplessly.He then touched a wound, causing him to hiss in pain.
"I was too impulsive too.However, don’t you guys ever visit the forums? Back then, when Samuel and Spencer ate with Nicole, she was being cursed for so long.Are you going to let them talk about her like that?" Stanley looked at him.
He usually paid his full attention to his studies and rarely went online.
Thus, he did not expect Nicole to be subjected to cyberbullying in school.He then turned toward Spencer and Samuel; both too wore an innocent look.
They were busy every day and very rarely visited the school forum.
After seeing the words insulting Nicole on the forums, Samuel was so pissed off he almost jumped, but Spencer firmly held him in place.
"You’ll bleed even more!" Samuel growled in reply.
"What’s me bleeding a little compared to how Nicole is being insulted?"
Spencer thought of it and agreed as he let Samuel go.
The latter immediately jumped to Stanley and Harvey as he shook his fist, his voice seething with anger.
"Master Harvey, you are well connected.Can you check who is the one behind this? I want to let them have a good taste of my fist."
For those people to make such a scandal out of them eating with their little sister, what are they even thinking? Spencer, too, nodded.
Although he was not agreeable to Samuel using violence to settle this, what happened was something that was really hard to end without direct action.
Stanley’s eyes were alight with fire.
He had only just sent a meal, and people spun the entire thing into a scandal like this! Harvey looked at the two brothers before him with a puzzled look.
"You guys don’t know about this at all?"
When the three heard this, they glared at him and roared in unison, "Bullshit!"
‘If we had known, we wouldn’t have our little sister to face these insults?’ Harvey shrugged.
He now believed that the few of them really did not know, so he dropped the saber-rattling with them as he said, "So, what do you guys want to do about this?"
Although he could find out who was the one responsible, he was still the principal’s grandson, and everything he did would be constrained by his identity.
Stanley looked at Spencer and Samuel.
A glint appeared in his eyes as his voice still had a tinge of iciness in it.
"All of you, come with me."
The few looked at one another.
Stanley was, after all, the president of the student council; his authority was far greater than the rest of them.
The four of them looked at each other and left.
Samuel took out the ball of cotton from his nose as Harvey, too, threw the gauze aside as all of them hurriedly left the school infirmary.
Under Stanley’s lead, they went straight to the office building and took the elevator to the level below the principal’s office.
Samuel was wondering why Stanley was bringing him here, but a look of understanding appeared in the eyes of Spencer and Harvey.
Stanley did not stop as he went directly to the room in the far corner and opened it.
Everyone inside the room looked at him in shock.
Stanley’s expression did not change as he took out his identification card.His voice was calm but authoritative.
"I need this room for something."
The few people looked at each other, and the leader walked over and had a good look at the ID.
His expression changed from rejection to faint respect.
"Ah, the student council president.Please go ahead."
Chapter 299
As he said that, he waved his hand and led the five to six people inside out.
Not forgetting to close the door on his way out.
Samuel’s eyes widened as he looked at the scene before him and muttered in amazement,"This is…"
Spencer did not react.
He was a music student, so he was familiar with the equipment in front of him.
He found a chair to sit down as he crossed his leg and quipped with some amusement,"Stanley, nice."
Stanley’s expression was impassive as he walked into the broadcasting room and calmly adjusted the equipment.
The few students from the broadcasting club were wondering why Stanley suddenly wanted to use the broadcasting room.
A girl then cautiously asked, "Say, why did the student council president come here? Is there something that he needed to use the broadcasting equipment?"
The boy by the side responded, "He probably has something important to announce."
As they said that, everyone started to gossip as a girl who was scrolling through her phone while chewing a piece of gum quipped, "Could it be something to do with Nicole?"
All of them had seen the posts about Stanley and Harvey and were extremely disdainful of Nicole.
As she said that, everyone fell silent, and soon a boy said, "How is that possible? Stanley is known to be very just.If someone tells you he’d take over the broadcasting room for a woman, will you believe it?"
Everyone felt that what the boy said made sense.
After all, Stanley had a good reputation, and all of the comments were calling Nicole shameless.
‘Why would Stanley use the broadcasting room just to help rehabilitate a woman?’
"Oh right, don’t you ever tie Stanley to that bitch, Nicole…"
Before they could even finish, Stanley’s gentle voice rang out across the loudspeakers in the school, with a slight electrical static.He then first briefly introduced himself.
"Hello everyone, this is Stanley Riddle."
Immediately after, two other voices came through the microphone.
"I am Samuel Riddle."
"I’m Spencer Riddle"
When everyone heard Stanley’s voice, all of them could not help but stop and listen.
They did not expect the Riddle twins to show up as well.
They were all famous figures in school! Everyone, be it the high school or the university departments, perked their ears up to listen to the broadcast.
Soon, Stanley’s voice came from the loudspeakers again.
His tone was calm, yet there was a tinge of iciness to it.
"The reason we are here today is to deliver a message to all students at the Royal Creek Institute."
He paused for a bit as if trying to suppress something.
Everyone was even more curious because of the pause.
‘What was it that required the student council president to broadcast in person?’ They wondered.
"We’ve noticed that you people have been mercilessly slandering Nicole on the school forums.She is, in fact, our dear little sister, so please stop the malicious slanders."
Stanley’s words were exceptionally clear, his every word carefully chosen.
Everyone heard that clearly as a look of shock appeared on everyone’s faces.
Many even thought they heard things.
‘Nicole was actually Stanley’s little sister! ‘Is this for real? Why haven’t they heard of it?’
‘If she is really a member of the Riddle family…’ …then Stanley, Samuel, and Spencer are all her elder brothers"
Chapter 300
‘‘Then why didn’t she see so?’’ The few that were trying to draw a line between Nicole and Stanley, too, had their mouths shut as their expression froze in shock.
They had heard Stanley proclaim that Nicole was his little sister.
One of the girls who had been keeping quiet looked mockingly at the few before her as a half smile appeared on her face..
‘’Say… do you guys even have brains? Isn’t Nicole’s family name Riddle too?"
Many in the group were Stanley’s fans and found it difficult to accept the truth.
Yet, they could only look at her in a daze and could not find the words to refute her.
‘‘If Nicole really is Stanley’s little sister, then the things they’ve said on the forums about her…’’
‘ ‘It was more than enough for Stanley to hate them to the core of his being!’ Inside the broadcasting room, Stanley did not stop.
His voice was slow and steady, yet what he said was inexplicably chill-inducing.
"Nicole may not mind it, but that doesn’t we, as her elder brothers don’t.To anyone who had insulted or verbally attacked my little sister, I’ll give you 24 hours to delete all those posts and personally apologize to Nicole.Otherwise, I’ll be filing a lawsuit against each and every one of you for libel, so do what you must."
As he said that, he gently raised his eyebrow, and Samuel, no longer able to hold back, rushed forward as he added a few words, "Stanley may be merciful to you lot, but I’m not.If anyone of you does not follow what he asked you to do, believe me when I say that I’ll personally drag you over to apologize to my little sister!"
Before he could finish, Stanley turned off the broadcasting equipment.
Samuel does not have a good grasp of what not to say when he speaks.
It would be bad if ill intentions were to use his words against him.
Samuel was scratching his head somewhat frustratedly as he said, "Stanley, what are you doing? I’m not done talking yet!"
Stanley did not say anything else as he just got up and walked out.
Spencer then dragged Samuel to follow on before Harvey finally followed them out.
The four walked past the students by the broadcasting room, ignoring their shocked expressions as they went.
It was Samuel who titled his head a little as he looked at Stanley’s fans as a cold yet playful light gleamed in his eyes.
The fans shuddered as he looked at them, and they thought he had heard what they were saying outside.
They were so scared that they almost cried.
After the four of them left, the president of the broadcasting club looked away with a complicated look as he waved his hand.
"Let’s go.Revise the draft, quickly… and those who need to apologize, do so."
None of them were in the mood after this fracas.
They only wanted to apologize to Nicole for fear of getting into trouble with the Riddle brothers.
As they thought of this, almost all of them were witless as fear filled their hearts.
The school’s broadcast system was shared by both the high school and the university department.
So, both Snow and Raine heard the broadcast, and their pretty faces gradually froze.
When Snow heard the sons of Uncle Daniel protecting Nicole like that, a look of deep jealousy appeared in her eyes.
She had never thought that Nicole, who had only returned not too long ago, would get the brothers to look after her so wholeheartedly.
Even Stanley, that bookworm who had good grades and character, also knew how to defend her.
Raine was so pissed off.
She, who had little control over her tongue, could not help but curse out loud, "Weren’t Uncle Daniel’s punks doting Norah all this while? Why are they speaking up for that bitch now?"
Snow immediately covered her mouth.
This was at school, not at home.
If Raine’s words were heard by someone else, this would be really bad for their image.
