Ch. 3071..3075: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 3071-3075

Chapter 3071

A loud bang echoed, followed by the screech of multiple vehicles coming to a stop.

"What's happening?" someone shouted from the halted vehicles, their voice tinged with frustration.

"Looks like a tire blew out, I'll take a look," another person responded, stepping out of the vehicle.

After examining the tire and the road, the person's face went pale, and they couldn't help but exclaim,

"We're in trouble!"

The other vehicles quickly reacted, with around a dozen men getting out and forming a protective circle

around the trucks.

"What's going on?" someone called out into the darkness.

The person checking the situation replied, "Can't say for sure, but there's a spike strip on the road. The

tire blowout was intentional."

Tension thickened in the air at this revelation.

The group remained on edge, keeping watch all around. They weren't sure when or where an attack

might come from, but they knew they were surrounded.

"The group seems pretty alert," Seth remarked, his voice dripping with disdain.

However, even if they had spotted it, it wouldn't make a difference to Charlie and his crew.

'These folks are as good as caught, and once we get back the cargo, we'll hand them over to the police

station.' Charlie's eyes narrowed slightly as he quietly commanded, "Move swiftly and decisively." "Got

it," the group replied, then charged toward their targets.

Despite being on alert, the sudden attack still took them by surprise, throwing them into chaos.

Charlie's team, all well-trained, swiftly subdued them.

"Boss, we've checked. The cargo's all good," Seth reported upon returning.

Charlie nodded in approval. "Tie them up, load them into the vehicles, and let's get out of here." "Got

it," the team replied, quickly carrying out the instructions. Once everything was sorted, they all climbed

into their vehicles and drove away from the scene.

Shortly after, Nicole and Jared received the update.

"Efficient," Nicole remarked with a shrug, suggesting that the opposition was less formidable than

anticipated.

"Everett will catch wind of this soon," Jared remarked, his expression turning grim.

Nicole nodded thoughtfully. "He might already know.”

Considering the timing, she believed that Everett should have been expecting the arrival of the cargo.

But now that it's lost, and those transporting it are out of reach.

"Having faced defeat at your hands multiple times, Everett's desperation will likely grow." Jared's eyes

gleamed with cold determination as he imagined Everett's rage.

Nicole seemed unperturbed. "He was already furious to begin with." 'It was better to act sooner rather

than later.' Nicole was eager to settle past scores with Everett. There were many unsettled accounts

between them that hadn't been addressed yet.

Jared gently smoothed Nicole's hair, softly reminding her, "Remember, you have me when you face

troubles."

Nicole smiled warmly, feeling comforted by his touch. She understood that he was advising her not to

tackle things alone or put herself in harm's way, but to seek his support and face challenges together.

Agreeing wholeheartedly, she didn't want to cause him any more worry. Facing things together felt

much safer.

Jared leaned in and tenderly kissed Nicole on the lips, a moment so gentle it enveloped them both.

Nicole instinctively wrapped her arms around Jared's waist, drawing him close.

In the quiet of the night, Jerry hurried to a mansion that glowed with light from within. He took a deep

breath before entering.

"Mr. Wright, I’ve checked. The men have been taken to the police station, and the cargo has been

secured in Warehouse 3," Jerry reported the situation to Everett.

 

Chapter 3072

"Mm," Everett responded indifferently.

Upon learning about the truck issue, he had expected this outcome.

"Nicole's quite the strategist. Quick to act, managing to thoroughly unravel our plans and even

orchestrating the hijacking of the cargo just as it was about to reach San Joto," he thought.

"How does Nicole seem to know our moves so well?" Jerry pondered, puzzled. It was as if she had

insight into their every step.

They had believed their plan was foolproof, yet they were consistently foiled. Reflecting on it, they felt

like mere clowns in Nicole's presence.

"Nicole's hacking skills rank first on Hunter. Even if she's not actively taking on tasks now, she still

possesses the capability," Everett sneered coldly.

"But we've been vigilant against her. Has her skill reached such a divine level?" Jerry wondered if her

expertise was so advanced that it eluded detection, akin to moving undetected.

"Perhaps we've overlooked something," Everett's eyes narrowed slightly, exuding a chilling intensity.

Though he acknowledged Nicole's formidable abilities, he didn't believe she was so skilled that they

couldn't detect any of her actions. 'The only explanation is that Nicole didn't personally carry out the

hacking. If someone's hacking our systems, it isn't Nicole!'

As the realization dawned on him, Everett's complexion turned ashen, his anger boiling inside. "Nicole,

oh Nicole, you're truly cunning." "What do you mean?" Jerry asked, furrowing his brow, his face paling.

"Cease all operations, and anything related to Nicole must be handled offline," Everett commanded, his

presence ominously cold.

"Understood," Jerry replied promptly, his feelings toward Nicole becoming more intricate. 'No wonder

he cautioned US about Nicole. She's not an ordinary woman.'

They had been wary of Nicole's hacking skills, unaware that she hadn't carried out the actions herself

but had someone else do it for her.

It appeared they could no longer rely on computers for these matters; everything would need to be

done on paper or committed to memory.

"So, are we simply letting this slide?" Jerry persisted.

"What other option do you suggest?" Everett countered, his gaze icy.

Jerry was taken aback, his face draining of color as he lowered his head.1 What can we even do now?

Storming Warehouse 3 to retrieve the goods is out of the question.' "If we've been defeated, we'll

accept it. But there's no guarantee she'll be so fortunate next time," Everett stated with a sinister look,

his words laden with implication.

"Please give your orders, sir," Jerry murmured quietly, sensing that Everett had a strategy in mind.

After a momentary pause, Everett snorted. "I want to test if Nicole truly is as unstoppable as she

appears to be."

He then instructed Jerry, "Here's what well do..." "Understood."

The following day dawned bright and sunny.

Nicole arrived at the company as usual for the routine morning meeting.

Once the meeting wrapped up, Nicole motioned for Sean and Steve. "Sean, Steve." "Do you need

something?" Both of them halted and turned toward Nicole.

"Let's have a seat and chat," Nicole proposed.

Once Sean and Steve settled down, they inquired, "What's up?" "Nothing serious," Nicole replied with a

smile. "It's about Steve and Sally." "Me and my wife?" Steve seemed puzzled. Their relationship was

going smoothly.

Nicole gave Steve a knowing look. "Mom checked in on Sally and learned everything’s going smoothly.

We are thinking, with Sally's due date nearing, maybe you should start organizing your work

responsibilities in advance."

Chapter 3073

"Wait a sec," Steve started.

Nicole cut in, "You're not gonna say it's not needed, right?"

After a pause, Steve chuckled. "Seems like it might work."

"That's better," Nicole grinned. "You'll have to be there for Sally's delivery and pitch in with baby duties

afterward. Once Sally's back on her feet, you can return to the company."

They could hire a nanny to help Sally with the baby, which should work out fine.

"Did you think of this plan?" Steve asked.

"Mom and Dad are on board too. Dad even offered to lend a hand with the company if things get

hectic," Nicole explained.

"We'll cope by ourselves," Sean jumped in, not completely agreeing.

Nicole nodded, "I've already talked it over with Dad."

"Then Sally and I appreciate everyone’s help," Steve said, relieved that everything was sorted.

"We're all like family here, no need to be so formal," Nicole teased gently.

Sean chimed in, "It's only fair. When my wife has a baby, you guys will have to share some of the

company's duties too."

"Jane's expecting too?" Nicole and Steve exclaimed simultaneously.

"Not yet, I was just making a comparison," Sean explained, a bit annoyed. It was inevitable; there was

no need for such surprise.

"Well, it's good to have plans," Steve shrugged. "I thought you were treating your careers like your

kids."

Sean rolled his eyes at Steve's remark, choosing to ignore it, and turned to Nicole. "Since that's settled,

let's discuss the company stuff."

"Sure thing," Nicole agreed, laying out her ideas for Sean.

Sean, after hearing Nicole's plan, nodded in agreement. "That sounds good, let's go with that."

"I'll get started on the work handover during this period. From now on, it's up to you guys," Steve said,

nodding.

"Great, it's best to have everything sorted out beforehand, so you can leave without worries," Nicole

said, turning to Sean. "Any other arrangements you need to make?"

"That should cover it. If any issues come up, we can discuss them later," Sean replied.

"Okay, then it's settled," Nicole concluded, standing up.

Sean and Steve also got up. "We'll head back to our offices now."

They all went their separate ways to their offices.

As Nicole settled into her desk, Patricia entered to report, "Ms. Riddle, here are the new documents."

"Thanks, just leave them here," Nicole said, then glanced up at Patricia. ’ We're going to Martin's

tomorrow to take off the bandage, right? To check out the final results."

"Yes," Patricia confirmed, absentmindedly touching her cheek, feeling a bit nervous. Despite their

optimism about the outcome, there was still a lingering uncertainty until the bandage was actually

removed.

"Don't worry. We've been positive about this, and it's going to be fine. Even if it's not perfect, Martin and

I will figure something out," Nicole reassured

Patricia.

'Thank you, Ms. Riddle," Patricia said appreciatively.

"No need to thank me. Just get back to your work," Nicole said with a smile.

"Sure thing," Patricia agreed, then left the office.

Nicole then picked up the documents beside her and started working through them.

Time passed quickly, and before she knew it, it was lunchtime.

"Nicole, let's grab some lunch?" Lulu called out to her.

"Sure thing," Nicole replied, ready for a break.

Chapter 3074

Putting aside the documents, Nicole stood up and left her office.

"Let's hit up that spot across the street," Lulu suggested.

"Sounds good to me," Nicole agreed.

As they waited for Patricia to join them, they all rode the elevator down together.

"Nicole, isn't Everett unusually quiet?" Lulu frowned, noticing his uncharacteristic silence.

"The quieter he is, the more it means he's plotting something," Nicole remarked with a touch of

coldness. Her expression turned serious as she silently mused, 'The calm before the storm often hides

looming threats.'

"Ms. Riddle, has Preston not received any updates?" Patricia inquired, looking worried.

Nicole sighed and shook her head. "We did follow some leads, but unfortunately, they didn't lead

anywhere."

"Did you get caught?" Lulu's face slightly paled.

"No," Nicole clarified. "They successfully infiltrated his assistant's computer without detection. However,

Everett suspected his side was being monitored due to past incidents, so he instructed his men to stop

using computers."

Everett was sharp enough to detect the problem based on these incidents and adapted accordingly. As

a result, Preston and his team couldn't find any useful information.

Patricia looked puzzled. "If they're not using computers, how are they getting things done?" She felt it

seemed extreme to completely abandon

computers.

"Now, whatever Preston's team manages to find has nothing to do with our company; anything related

to me is untraceable," Nicole stated. It

appeared that Everett's plans involving her were no longer discussed or stored electronically.

"Ugh," Lulu rolled her eyes, "Even without hacking, we're not intimidated by him." If they couldn't dig up

anything, then that was that. They were ready to confront whatever challenges came their way, without

backing down.

'He's overly cautious about your strategies," Patricia remarked disdainfully.

"He's just intimidated by Nicole," Lulu shrugged, her expression tinged with disdain. After all, Nicole's

capabilities were well-known, even to Everett.

"Despite this, we should remain cautious," Patricia interjected seriously. Everett's heightened vigilance

toward Nicole meant their movements would be harder to detect, concealing deeper dangers.

’It's maddening. We wont let him off the hook once we catch him red- handed," Lulu retorted angrily.

Exiting the elevator, Nicole calmly said, "Let's go, it's time to eat."

For now, there was no need to dwell on these matters. Enjoying their meal took precedence when

nothing untoward had happened yet.

As the sun set, Nicole left the company and saw Jared's car slowly approaching.

The car pulled up in front of her, and she opened the door, getting in.

"Have you been waiting long?" Jared asked softly.

"I just came out," Nicole smiled. "But you're a bit later than usual today. Did you have more work?"

"I had a video conference at the end of the day," Jared replied, taking her hand.

Though he was a bit late, Nicole was grateful he still managed to pick her up on time.

Resting her head on his shoulder, Nicole said, "If you're busy with work, you don't have to pick me up. I

can make my own way back."

Jared stroked her hair, smiling. "Whenever I can, I'll be here."

Even when he couldn't make it, he made sure someone reliable was there for her.

Understanding his concern about Everett possibly targeting her, Nicole felt a warm sense of gratitude.

"Don't worry too much. I actually hope he doesn't stay too quiet."

Chapter 3075

Resolving the issue with Everett sooner would bring peace to Nicole and her family more quickly.

If the problem was resolved, Jared and Nicole would need to think about their wedding. They had

initially planned it for a month later, and some days had already passed, meaning they needed to start

preparing.

Casting a gentle glance at Nicole, Jared hugged her a little tighter.

Back at home, Nolan and Lana had already returned.

"Daddy, Mommy!" the kids waved at Nicole and Jared.

Nicole went over to the couch and patted Nolan and Lana's heads before greeting Daniel and Gloria.

"Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner," Gloria advised.

"Isn't Stanley joining US for dinner?" Nicole asked, noticing his absence.

"He's over at Tia's place," Gloria replied with a smile.

Understanding the situation, Nicole smiled as well. "Then let's eat."

After dinner, Nicole took Nolan and Lana back to their room. "About what you mentioned earlier, your

dad and I have talked it over. If you're set on going to Royal Creek Elementary, then we'll support your

decision."

"Yay!" Nolan and Lana cheered.

"But Royal Creek Elementary is a bit farther, so you'll need to leave home earlier," Nicole reminded

them.

Nolan nodded seriously. "I understand." He was willing to accept this as long as he could go to Royal

Creek Elementary.

"Nolan, that means we might be in the same school as Nona. I wonder if we could be in the same

class?" Lana pondered, tilting her head.

"Nona?" Nicole's mind immediately went to a chubby, adorable child.

They had met Nona when they first took Nolan and Lana to kindergarten. Nona had taken good care of

them.

"Yes, Nona said she’d be going to Royal Creek Elementary, and now we can too. It's really exciting,"

Lana said with joy.

Nicole looked over at Nolan. "You want to go to Royal Creek Elementary because of her."

It wasn't a question, just a statement. Nicole could see right through Nolan's plan.

But Nolan played it cool. ”1 just like that school. Plus, I want to go to Royal Creek Institute later on.

Starting from its affiliated elementary school makes sense."

Nicole found Nolan's explanation kind of funny.

"You've got a point." Even though she said this, Nicole knew she was right about Nolan's real reason.

But since he wasn't owning up to it, she decided to drop it.

Nolan silently breathed a sigh of relief, glad Nicole didn't press further.

"Mom, can we be in the same class as Nona?" Lana asked, her eyes hopeful as she tilted her head.

"Sure thing. When we sign up, Mom will make sure of it," Nicole agreed, unable to resist her kids'

request.

"Thanks, Mom," Lana hugged Nicole tightly, burying her face against her mom's neck.

Nicole’s eyes softened as she embraced Lana.

The next day, when Nicole got to work, Lulu barged into her office, looking worried.

"What's wrong?" Nicole asked, seeing Lulu's pale face.

"NandoCorp and DillCorp sent messages..." Lulu began, but Nicole's phone interrupted with a ring.
