Ch. 3031..3035: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 3031-3035
Chapter 3031
Nicole had called several raw material suppliers from different areas, but none of them had a good
solution.
Finally, Nicole turned on her computer and logged into an international supply website. She worked on
this until nearly noon, eventually finding the right solution.
"It's done." Nicole closed her computer, stood up, and stretched her neck and arms.
Lulu let out a sigh of relief. "Great, it's finally sorted out." "Today, some of the materials will be sent, and
the rest will arrive over time. When they're here, we'll get them to work right away. It won't delay our
project," Nicole explained.
"Got it." Lulu nodded, then asked Nicole, "Did you figure out who was behind this?"
They were facing a serious threat, and whoever was behind it needed to be dealt with.
Nicole shook her head. "Not yet, but I suspect it's Everett."
Lulu muttered, "That sounds right. He's the only one who'd stoop so low." "Let's not focus on that now.
Make sure someone keeps an eye on this new batch of materials. We can't afford any more issues,"
Nicole directed Lulu.
"I'm on it." Lulu nodded firmly. She was ready to oversee the process herself to prevent any problems
with the materials.
Checking the time, Nicole suggested, "It's time for lunch. Let's go." "Sure." Lulu agreed, and they left
the office together.
At the restaurant, they ordered simple lunch sets.
As they ate, Lulu frowned. "Are we just going to let Everett get away with this?"
She was inclined to move on, but Everett's actions were getting worse. Left unchecked, he might
become bolder.
Nicole's eyes flickered with a hint of coldness. "No, we’re not."
She had overlooked Everett's previous actions because she had a better solution, but it didn't mean
she was scared or would always let him get his way.
"How do you think we should deal with this?" Lulu's voice was tinged with excitement. She seemed
certain that if Nicole took action, Everett would deeply regret his actions.
Nicole shrugged nonchalantly. "I'll figure it out. For now, let's just focus on lunch." "Right, let's enjoy our
lunch." Lulu's appetite grew. She eagerly anticipated seeing Everett face consequences. His misfortune
would be her satisfaction.
After lunch, as they left the restaurant, they unexpectedly ran into the last person they wanted to
encounter.
Meanwhile, Everett was in his office, reclining on the sofa with his legs crossed, his eyes reflecting a
dark mood.
Knock, knock.
Hearing the knock, Everett called out, "Come in."
His assistant stepped in, speaking softly, "Mr. Wright, there's no movement from Nicole Riddle's end."
"Really? Nothing at all?" Everett asked, a hint of confusion in his voice.
"Yes, she's just having lunch with her assistant. Everything seems normal," the assistant confirmed.
Everett's expression grew colder. "That can't be right. How could she not react to this?"
The assistant looked puzzled. "It is odd, but that's what's happening."
Chapter 3032
Everett's assistant, too, found it hard to believe that anyone could remain so calm in such a situation,
yet Nicole appeared entirely unaffected. Additionally, there was no sign of any countermeasures from
Riddle Corporation regarding the raw materials problem.
The assistant was more inclined to believe that Nicole's team hadn't found a solution. After all, Everett's
maneuvers had blocked all obvious paths.
After thinking for a moment, Everett instructed, "Have someone dig deeper into this. We must be
missing something." His tone was ice-cold. He was convinced, ’This isn't normal; Nicole isn’t one to
surrender easily.' "Yes, sir," the assistant responded and exited the room.
Everett got up and walked over to the window, his gaze dark and thoughtful as he stared outside.
'Nicole wouldn't just sit back and do nothing. There's something I'm not seeing...'
As the day turned to evening, Nicole exited the company building to find Jared waiting for her.
He greeted her with a smile. Nicole got into the car, and he handed her a stamp and a document.
"What are these for?" Nicole asked, looking at the items curiously.
"They're for the Westborough Distribution Warehouse, specifically Warehouse 3. Everything you need
is in there," Jared explained.
Nicole realized that with these items, she could easily gain access to the goods.
Surprised, Nicole questioned, ’How did you manage to secure so many?"
She recognized these were the essential raw materials. Warehouse 3 at Westborough Distribution
Warehouse was sizable enough to store half of what she needed. This meant the import of the foreign
materials should go smoothly.
Jared looked at Nicole with a gentle expression. "You can use Warehouse 3 for your additional imports
too. There won't be any trouble." "Okay, that's great." Nicole nodded, giving Jared a grateful smile.
"Thank you, honey."
Jared's cautious approach was wise. If Everett learned about the arrival of the raw materials, he might
try to interfere again. Keeping them in Warehouse 3 was a safer option, as it was secure.
Holding Nicole's hand gently, Jared looked at her with a soft gaze. He just wanted to spare her from
any unnecessary struggles.
Later, Nicole and Jared arrived home. As they entered, they were greeted by Dexter and Emma. Nicole
responded with a warm smile.
"You're back," Emma smiled at her.
Nicole settled on the sofa and casually asked, "What's happening?"
Emma hesitated, her voice tinged with unease, "It's a minor issue, but..."
Nicole gave a reassuring smile. "Just tell me what it is."
Gloria chimed in to encourage Emma, "Go ahead, Emma. Nicole might have some insight, and if
there's a problem, we can all work on it together."
Nicole's attention sharpened at Gloria's words. This sounded more serious than she initially thought.
Buoyed by Gloria's support, Emma gathered her courage, "I know you're busy, Nicole, and I didn't want
to bother you with something small. But I'm really at a loss here."
Nicole's voice was gentle as she said, "Tell me what's bothering you."
Emma took a deep breath and began, "It's about Ellar. He's been coming home at odd hours, looking
really worn out.
"He brushes off my concerns, saying he's just tired from work. But Dexter visited his office today and
learned that it's not as hectic as Eliar makes it out to be.
"We're worried he might be dealing with something he can't share with US."
Emma looked to Nicole, hoping she might shed some light on the situation or help them find a way to
support Ellar if he was indeed facing a challenge.
Chapter 3033
Nicole’s expression showed her surprise as she asked, "Is this happening every day?" This was indeed
unexpected to Nicole. Eliar assisting Patricia with her treatment shouldn't require such irregular hours.
She thought to herself, 'What could he possibly be involved in?'
Emma's worry deepened at Nicole's response, "You don't know about it either?"
She felt that If Nicole was in the dark, it seemed unlikely anyone else knew. Ellar and Nicole had been
close since childhood, and it was unusual for him to keep things from her..
"I'll have my people look into it." Nicole assured Dexter and Emma. She could see Dexter and Emma's
growing concern. "If Ellar is in trouble, I'll find a way to help." "Well... okay." Emma sighed, saying,
"Thank you for doing this." She understood the desire for privacy, recognizing that if the younger
generation chose not to share, they likely had their reasons.
"Try not to worry. I doubt it's anything serious. If there were a real issue, Ellar wouldn't be able to keep
it from me for long. He might just be going through a busy patch," Nicole reassured Emma, aiming to
ease her concerns.
Emma managed a smile, nodding in agreement. "I trust you'll handle it well.
Gloria also offered words of comfort, "Don't stress too much. The kids are adults now; they can
manage their affairs. And work issues are often out of our hands."
Dexter chimed in with a nod, "We understand we can't do much, but it's hard not to worry when you see
your child struggling."
Nicole offered a reassuring smile to Dexter. "Just give it a little more time.
Things might improve in a few days," she suggested optimistically.
In her mind, Nicole suspected that this situation had less to do with work and more with Patricia.
Perhaps Ellar found it difficult to stay away from
Patricia, choosing to distance himself while still keeping an eye on her from afar.
Stanley walked into the room, noticing the group. "Oh, you're all here," he greeted Dexter and Emma
warmly.
"Just stopped by for a visit," Dexter responded, keeping the conversation light and steering away from
the topic of Ellar.
Then Daniel entered the room, adding, "Looks like everyone's here. How about we sit down for
dinner?" "Sounds good," they all agreed, moving toward the dining room to settle in for the evening
meal.
After dinner, Dexter and Emma said their goodbyes and left. The family regrouped in the living room,
settling into a comfortable atmosphere.
Daniel told Nicole, "Please help with Ellar's situation." "Sure, I got it," Nicole replied.
Curious, Lana, with her childlike innocence, asked, "Mommy, does Uncle Ellar have a girlfriend?"
Gloria, overhearing the question, chimed in with a slightly furrowed brow," Having a girlfriend doesn't
explain his odd hours."
Both Gloria and Emma were clearly troubled, fearing that Ellar might be dealing with a problem he felt
unable to share with them. This concern had led Emma to approach Nicole, hoping that if anyone could
uncover the truth, it would be her. Nicole had always been someone Ellar trusted implicitly.
Nolan, looking concerned, asked, "Then what's going on with him?"
Nicole gently patted the heads of the kids, offering a comforting smile." Don't worry, we'll figure it out.
Everything will be alright."
Stanley, piecing together the earlier conversation, realized Dexter and Emma's visit was about E liar.
He reasoned that Ell ar, despite any current challenges, was resilient and things would eventually
improve.
The family continued to chat for a bit longer, enjoying each other's company. After some time, Daniel
glanced at the clock and suggested, "It's getting late. We should all head to bed." "Okay," came the
collective response, and they all made their way upstairs to retire for the night.
Meanwhile, Dexter and Emma had just gotten home and, by chance, ran into Ellar who was also
returning at that moment.
Chapter 3034
Ellar's tired and downcast appearance immediately caught Dexter and Emma's attention, deepening
their concern.
"Mom, Dad, why are you just getting back?" Ellar asked with a hint of confusion.
"We were visiting your Uncle Daniel," Dexter responded. He then turned the conversation towards
Ellar's late arrival, "Why are you out so late again? What's keeping you?"
Ellar gave a half-hearted response, "Just had to work some overtime."
Dexter frowned, not convinced. "That's not true. You weren't at the office when it closed, and there
wasn't any overtime scheduled."
Ellar looked taken aback. "How did you know?" He had left the office early, using overtime as an
excuse to avoid questions from his parents, not knowing how else to explain his actions.
Emma gently explained their concern to Ellar, "We've noticed you're not yourself these days, and it's
worrying US. That's why your dad went to check at your office. We just want to know if everything's
alright."
Ellar scrambled for an excuse, "It's just some business dinners."
Dexter let out a sigh, "Look, we understand if there are things you can't share with US. But if you're
struggling, maybe talking to Nicole would help. She might be able to assist you."
Emma chimed in with understanding, "We're not trying to pry, but we're genuinely concerned about
you."
Ellar felt a pang of guilt, "Mom, Dad, please don't worry about me. I'm really fine, and so is the
business. If something comes up that I can't handle, I'll speak to Nicole." "That's reassuring to hear,"
Emma said. "Maybe you should consider dropping by the headquarters tomorrow." She knew they
couldn't push Ellar for more, so she offered a gentle suggestion instead.
Ellar nodded. "Alright, I'll do that."
Dexter and Emma felt somewhat relieved. Knowing that Ellar was open to discussing his issues, even if
not with them directly, lifted a weight off their hearts. The idea of him not having to shoulder his troubles
alone was comforting.
Although Ellar assured his parents to ease their worries, he knew there wasn't much he could actually
discuss or disclose.
Nonetheless, he considered paying a visit to Riddle Corporation, thinking,' Patricia has returned to
work. I wonder how she's coping, especially given that her face hasn't completely healed yet.'
The next day, Ellar surprised everyone by not leaving early. After getting dressed, he joined Dexter and
Emma for breakfast before heading to work.
Dexter and Emma exchanged a glance.
"Does this mean everything's okay?" Emma asked.
"Don't stress, he's got Nicole. He trusts her the most. Everything will work out," Dexter reassured her.
"True, let's just wait for updates,” Emma replied, her eyes wandering to the window.
After Ellar left home and reached Riddle Corporation, he soon stood before the impressive building. As
he gazed at it, his eyes showed a touch of mixed feelings.
"Ellar! You're here! Why aren't you heading in?" Lulu's voice came from behind.
"Just got here, was about to head in," Ellar explained, trailing Lulu into the company.
Getting off the elevator, Lulu directed Ellar, "Go wait in Nicole's office.
She'll be here soon." "Alright." Ellar went into Nicole's office and settled on the sofa, anticipating her
arrival.
After some time, the door swung open.
"Nicole." Ellar stood upto welcome her, but to his surprise, Patricia walked in.
Patricia seemed a bit confused spotting Ellar. "What brings you here?" Thinking Nicole had arrived due
to the sounds, she came to drop off some documents, not expecting to find Ellar instead.
Chapter 3035
"I just wanted to check on Nicole," Ellar explained, trying to appear composed.
Internally, his world wasn't calm at all. Observing Patricia from a distance in the past few days brought
him comfort, and seeing her well added to that. Now, being so close and talking to her, he couldn't
contain his emotions.
"Ms. Riddle should be here soon," Patricia said, quickly regaining her composure.
After putting the papers on the desk, she turned and walked away. Ellar's sudden appearance had
surprised her, stirring up different feelings. Right now, all she wanted was to get away.
Coincidentally, Nicole arrived and encountered Patricia at the door.
"The documents are on the desk, Ms. Riddle. I'll handle other matters," Patricia reported.
"Sure." Nicole noticed Patricia leaving in a bit of a hurry but didn't pay it much mind and walked into the
room.
As soon as Nicole saw Ellar, a realization struck her. 'Oh, it's because he's here.' "What brings you
here?" Nicole asked Ellar.
"Good morning, Nicole." Ellar immediately stood up and approached her.
"Hey, spill it." Nicole calmly looked at him.
"Don't you know why they're worried?" Nicole asked with a meaningful tone.
Trying to downplay it, Ellar responded, "Not much, just been busy with work lately." "Busy?" Nicole
asked again, her tone carrying more weight.
Startled, Ellar hesitated. "Nicole, do you already know everything?"
He figured Nicole was already aware; otherwise, she wouldn't be asking in this way.
With a glance, Nicole remarked, "To keep something unknown, best not to do it at all."
Ellar understood what Nicole was implying. His voice softened. "I'm just concerned about Patricia." "If
you're worried about her, why hesitate to see her?" Nicole questioned, a bemused expression on her
face.
Ellar lowered his head. "I don't want to complicate things for her or bring trouble. I just want to be sure
she's happy."
After all, Ellar had presumed Charlie was Patricia's boyfriend, and he restrained himself from getting
too close, fearing it might cause her distress.
Nicole arched an eyebrow slightly. "If that's truly how you feel, shouldn't you concentrate on rebuilding
your own life? Rather than investing all your free time and energy in Patricia?"
Eliar’s face paled slightly, but he offered no response to Nicole's words.
He understood Nicole was right, yet the longing to know how Patricia was doing lingered. Even if he
could only watch her from a distance and make sure she was happy, it felt like enough.
Despite returning home with a bitter mood each time, a peculiar sense of happiness persisted within
him.
Ellar feared his future life would be grim if he stop watching Patricia.
"Ah." Nicole gently patted Ellar's shoulder, understanding his thoughts. She felt a twinge of sympathy
for this straightforward guy.
Nicole pondered, 'How did he assume that Charlie and Patricia were a couple? Just because they're a
bit closer doesn't necessarily mean they're a couple.' "For now, I can't stop watching her. But in the
future, when she gets married, I'll hold back," Ellar decided after considerable thought.
Nicole's eyes narrowed slightly, sensing movement outside the door.
"Come in," Nicole beckoned, but there was no immediate response. After a while, the secretary
entered, saying, "Ms. Riddle, I brought some water."
