Ch. 2961..2965: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 2961-2965

Chapter 2961

Nicole glanced at Ellar but didn't say anything.She turned to Lulu and asked, "Did you bring what I needed?"

"Here it is," Lulu replied, handing her a box.

Opening it, Nicole found a row of golden needles.

She took them out and carefully placed them into specific points on Martin's body.

After finishing, Nicole sighed with relief.

"He should wake up soon."

"Here."

Lulu handed her a handkerchief.

Nicole took it and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

"How could he just faint like that?"

Lulu asked, clearly worried.

Ignoring the question, Nicole turned to Patricia.

"Let me check on you too."

She had asked Patricia to come over for an examination.

If Martin's condition was serious, Nicole would take over Patricia's treatment.

With Ellar there, Patricia hesitated.

She glanced at him and sat down.

Nicole unwrapped Patricia's bandages checked her over, and said, "Keep using the medicine I gave you.I'll prepare another round for you."

"You're fine now, go rest," Nicole told Patricia.

Patricia nodded.

"Ms.Riddle, I'll go back.Call me if you need anything."

"You can go, don't worry,"

Nicole reassured her.

After Patricia left, Nicole frowned at Ellar.

"Aren't you leaving?"

"I'm not," Ellar said, shaking his head.

"I want to know what's happening."

"It's nothing," Nicole assured him calmly.

"But there must be something,"

Ellar insisted, refusing to leave. Lulu looked at Nicole, puzzled.

"Is everything really okay?"

She was surprised about Martin's illness and confused about why Nicole needed those needles.

Martin suddenly coughed and woke up.

Everyone turned their attention to him.

Cindy handed him a glass of water and helped him sip it.

"You're finally awake!"

Cindy's eyes were red, like she was trying not to cry.

Martin looked around, confused.

"Why are you all here? What happened?"

"You fainted," Lulu said, looking puzzled.

"What exactly happened?"

"Did I?" Martin frowned.

He didn’t remember fainting.

He just remembered feeling dizzy and then nothing.

Cindy, her voice shaky, said, "You were poisoned."

"Poisoned?!"

Not just Martin, but Lulu and Ellar too were shocked.

"Yes, don't you remember the medicine you were testing?"

Cindy asked, worried he might have forgotten because of the poisoning.

Lulu blinked twice.

"Wait, testing what medicine?"

"It's Patricia's medicine.There was a risky but effective method, so Martin decided to research the formula to make it less toxic.That way, it could help Patricia without hurting her."

"This is too risky, isn't there another way?" Lulu said, disapproving.

She thought Martin had tried the medicine and collapsed before Patricia could. She was worried about what might happen to Patricia if she took it.

Chapter 2962

Shivering at the thought, Lulu said, "We should think of another way."

She felt the risks were just too high.

After removing all the golden needles from Martin, Nicole suggested, "Let's put this formula aside for now.We'll find a safer method."

Martin hesitated but finally nodded in agreement.

Lulu realized the seriousness of the situation, understanding why Nicole had sent Patricia away earlier.

If Patricia knew about this, she would surely feel guilty, and it could worsen her mental stress, impacting her recovery.

Cindy, supporting Martin, advised, "You're still weak.You should rest."

"I'm fine, I just need a little rest.Besides, I can't leave now," Martin replied.

Cindy looked toward the lab room, then reassured him,"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on things."

Their experiment was at a critical point, and they needed someone to closely monitor the results.

This was why Cindy had found something wrong with Martin that morning.

She dreaded to think what might have happened if she hadn't been there and Martin hadn't received timely treatment after fainting.

Nicole said, "It's fine to stay here."

She left the golden needles with Cindy, teaching her how to use them if Martin's condition worsened.

Nicole then prepared antidote medicine for Martin and instructed him on how to take it.

After everything was done, she told Martin, "You must stop that experiment.We’ll find another way."

"Okay," Martin nodded.

"Thank you."

"No need to thank me.Just take good care of yourself,"

Nicole replied, preparing to leave with Lulu and Ellar.

Ellar then said, "Nicole, you and Lulu go ahead."

"What about you?" Nicole asked, slightly concerned.

"I want to ask about Patricia's condition, what to watch out for.I need to keep an eye on her," Ellar explained.

Realizing that Ellar had come with Patricia, Nicole didn't think much of it and agreed, leaving with Lulu.

Once Nicole and Lulu had left, Martin, feeling a bit better, asked Ellar, "What's up?"

He knew Ellar had something in mind, as all necessary precautions for Patricia's care had been thoroughly discussed.

It was unlikely Ellar needed to revisit those details.

Therefore, Martin figured there must be another reason for Ellar's decision to stay.

Ellar, not holding back, asked, "What's this dangerous formula you guys were talking about?"

He sensed the high risk involved, which was why Nicole had firmly urged Martin to stop.

But Ellar believed this formula might be their best shot at success.

Martin sighed and explained, "It's about using the principle of counteracting the toxicity of the drugs..."

After Martin's explanation, Ellar, after a moment of silence, volunteered, "Maybe you can test it on me."

Martin and Cindy were both taken aback.

"Yes, me,"

Ellar confirmed, resolute.

"You need a test subject, and I'm willing to be one. So, why not?"

"Are you out of your mind? Do you realize how dangerous this is?!"

Martin exclaimed, followed by a severe coughing fit.

Cindy brought him water to ease his cough, then cautioned,"Don't rush into this, Martin.It's your decision."

Ultimately, the decision rested with Martin.

If he wasn't comfortable, Ellar's offer meant nothing.

But Ellar pressed on, "I think I should have a say in this too."

Chapter 2963

Martin was speechless at Ellar’s calmness. Ellar understood the risks, but he was willing to take the same chance Martin did when he tested the medicine on himself.

Ellar reasoned, “You guys are here. Nicole told you about the antidote and what to do in an emergency, so you won’t let anything bad happen to me, right?” He hesitated a bit.

“What do you mean?” Martin asked, confused.

“If things get really bad, you’d call Nicole to save me,” Ellar said with a reluctant smile. “But I hope it won’t come to that. If Nicole has to step in, we’ll have to give up on this.”

Martin realized Ellar wanted to keep this from Nicole.

“If we tell Nicole, she’ll disagree,” Ellar shrugged.

“But if we hide this from Nicole and she finds out, she’ll be upset with us,” Cindy said, worried about the responsibility.

Ellar explained, “There are two outcomes: if it works, she won’t blame you, just me. She won’t stay mad forever. If it fails, she’ll scold me, but not forever. I don’t want to do this, but I want to help Patricia.”

He knew Nicole would be angry and hurt, but he saw no other way.

“This isn’t about being angry. Do you understand the risk?” Martin said, refusing.

He couldn’t explain it to Nicole or the Riddle family if something went wrong.

Seeing Martin and Cindy’s refusal, Ellar suddenly grabbed a shiny fruit knife from the coffee table and slashed a deep cut across his arm.

“What are you doing?!” Martin and Cindy exclaimed in horror.

Ellar, holding his wound, calmly asked, “Will you help me now?”

Martin and Cindy exchanged a look and finally agreed, “Fine.”

“Let’s start,” Ellar said, putting down the knife and sitting down for treatment.

After bandaging the wound, Martin instructed Ellar to come here after work every day.

“Thank you,” Ellar said, acknowledging Martin’s consent before leaving.

As Ellar was about to leave, he paused at the door and turned back to Martin, emphasizing, “Not just Nicole, don’t let Patricia know about this either.”

He was worried that if Patricia found out, she might give up on her treatment, which was not what he wanted.

After Ellar left, Martin let out a sigh. “He really cares about Patricia.”

Ellar’s actions showed how much he loved her.

Cindy glanced at Martin and said, “It’s always like this with unrequited love, right?”

Martin looked uncomfortable, avoiding Cindy’s eyes, and quickly left to make some medicine.

Cindy felt upset by his reaction. She knew Martin felt awkward around her. Her words were about both Martin and herself.

She whispered to herself, ‘Seems we can’t help but worry about the ones we love, even if they don’t feel the same.’ Alone in his office, Martin felt a pang of loneliness.

Meanwhile, Nicole and Lulu were heading to the Riddle Corporation.

Listening to Nicole’s story, Lulu said, “Poor Patricia, she’s really going through a lot.”

Chapter 2964

Nicole, deep in thought, wondered, “Is there really no better way to help Patricia?” She was determined, though. “I won’t give up. There has to be a way.”

She was set on finding a solution for Patricia’s recovery.

Lulu, tilting her head, suggested, “Why not ask your mentor for help?”

Nicole sighed, “I’ve tried reaching him, but he might be in seclusion again.” She had already informed her mentor about Patricia’s situation but got no response.

Lulu, feeling sorry, said, “Why is Patricia so unlucky? Who can help her?”

It seemed they had to stick to the slower approach Nicole and Martin were taking, hoping for the best solution eventually.

Arriving at Riddle Corporation, Nicole and Lulu got out of the car.

Nicole noticed a car that had been following them. It stopped by the roadside.

The driver and passengers didn’t seem suspicious, so Nicole guessed Jared had sent them. This thought brought a small smile to her face.

“What are you looking at?” Lulu asked, seeing Nicole pause.

“It’s nothing, let’s go,” Nicole replied, leading Lulu inside Riddle Corporation.

After a busy day, it was time to leave the office.

Lulu arrived at Nicole’s office, “They should be here by now, let’s go.”

“Okay,” Nicole said, and they left together.

“Nolan and Lana spent the day with Great-grandpa, and he was thrilled,” Lulu shared happily.

Nicole nodded, “Dad said Grandpa didn’t want them to leave. He invited us all for dinner.”

“Yes, June and Samuel are on their way too,” Lulu added.” We should hurry.”

Outside the company, Jared and Spencer were waiting for them.

They got into their cars and headed to the Riddle family manor.

When they arrived, Stanley and Tia had just gotten there too.

“Nicole,” Tia called out, waving to Nicole.

The group entered the Riddle family manor one after the other.

As expected, Samuel and June had already arrived, but Steve and Sean were yet to come.

“Where are Sean and Steve?” Samuel inquired, noticing their absence.

Nicole shook her head, and then Gloria explained, “Steve went to accompany Sally to the hospital, and Sean had an engagement, so neither of them could come.”

Everyone understood and didn’t press further.

They greeted Benjamin as they gathered around the couch.

“Please, take a seat,” Benjamin said, looking quite well.

Nolan and Lana sat in front of Benjamin. Benjamin looked happy and healthy.

“We haven’t arrived too late, have we?” Dexter and Emma entered with a smile.

“No, not at all,” Gloria responded warmly.

As it got late and everyone had sat down, they noticed Ellar hadn’t arrived yet.

“Where’s Ellar?” someone asked.

“Who knows,” Emma said, slightly annoyed. “He just said he was busy and might come if he had time, and if not, he wouldn’t. I don’t even know what he’s up to.”

Even Emma seemed unable to ascertain Ellar’s whereabouts.

Chapter 2965

Gloria raised her eyebrows, “Could it be that he’s got a girlfriend now?”

Everyone was curious about Ellar’s secretive behavior.

Emma shook her head, “I don’t think so. I haven’t seen any girls around him, and there’s no hint of one either.”

She would have been less worried if Eliar was just making new friends.

“Then it must be something work-related, which you all aren’t part of,” Daniel suggested quietly.

Dexter agreed, “Maybe.”

They weren’t involved in the company’s affairs and couldn’t really help.

“It’s time to eat,” Benjamin announced as everyone arrived.

“Okay,” the family replied together and headed to the dining room.

“Is BayCorp very busy lately?” Lulu whispered to Nicole, sitting next to her.

Nicole thought for a moment, then shook her head, “I’m not sure, but it doesn’t seem overly busy.”

Lulu, still puzzled, whispered, “It’s weird. If he’s so busy, how does he find time to follow Patricia every day? Maybe he’s gone to see Patricia.”

Considering Ellar’s recent time spent with Patricia, Nicole nodded, “That could be it.”

“Lulu, what are you talking about?” Spencer asked curiously while serving her food.

“It’s nothing,” Lulu replied, turning to Spencer, avoiding the topic of Ellar.

Nicole also turned her attention to Jared, who was serving her food, and gave a slight smile.

“Let’s eat,” Jared said softly.

Nicole nodded and quietly told Jared, “Things aren’t going well with Martin, Patricia’s situation might become difficult.”

Jared whispered back, “She can stop going on missions and take her time.”

Nicole realized this meant Patricia was now officially out of their organization.

Nicole bit her lip thoughtfully, wondering what Patricia would decide next, now that her previous concerns were no longer an issue.

In Martin’s research lab, Ellar was ready for the experiment.

“Are you sure about this?” Martin asked him one last time.

With a determined look, Ellar nodded, “Let’s start.”

He was beyond having second thoughts, hoping for a result that could help Patricia heal faster and reduce the scars on her face.

“Alright, let’s begin,” Martin agreed, seeing Ellar’s resolve, and got everything set up.

Cindy was there too, ready to help.

Martin applied the medicine to Ellar’s arm and waited to see his reaction.

“It stings a bit, but I can handle it,” Ellar said, then reminded Martin, “You might need to change the amount though. This is my arm, and Patricia’s treatment is for her face.”

Since the face was more sensitive, Patricia might feel more pain.

Martin gave Ellar a serious look, “You should be more worried about yourself right now.”

The risk of poisoning was a bigger concern than pain.

Ellar fell silent, realizing his suggestion had upset Martin.

Meanwhile, Martin kept a close eye on Ellar, watching for any changes in his condition.
