Ch. 311..315: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 311-315

Chapter 311

That probably meant that Riddle Corporation could lose the tender.

“What will happen if we lose?” Gloria did not want to hide things from her daughter, so she said in a whisper, “If we lose, we will lose everything that we have invested in that land.” Of course, that was not all.

Money spent on greasing the wheels, which were not small amounts, would also go down the drain.

So losing the tender meant hollowing out the cash flow and increasing the debts of Riddle Corporation. Gloria was afraid of putting too much pressure on her daughter, so what she told her was an understatement.

But Nicole could easily hear the worry and nervousness she implied in her words.

After all, this was the biggest investment that Riddle Corporation had bet on in years. Nicole did not go on asking but looked knowingly at Gloria’s somewhat tired face.

“You have a good rest, Mom.

I will go first.” “You’re leaving so quick?” Gloria asked eagerly.

“I have to study for my monthly exam, which is coming soon.” Nicole said with a nod.

Gloria could not argue with that and reluctantly saw Nicole out.

As Nicole waved goodbye at her, Gloria suddenly said, “Why don’t you wait a second? I will ask your brother to send you home.” Nicole shook her head and looked at the black car in front of her with a faint smile on her face.

“It’s okay, Mom.

Go back inside,” she said.

Gloria watched in surprise as Nicole walked toward the black car that she could not tell what model it was.

Nicole opened the car door, turned to look at Gloria, who was still standing in the doorway, and frowned.

She walked back again and brought Gloria into the house before she turned around and left. Nicole was worried that her mother would catch a cold as Gloria was wearing too little.

When Nicole came back to the car again, Jared tapped the leather seat with the index finger of his right hand.

She looked nonchalant, opened the rear passenger door, and got it when she saw it was now Max who was behind the wheel. As Nicole got in the car, Jared’s expression turned gentle.

“How’s your grandfather’s condition?” he asked: “He is still strong, recovering fast,” she said faintly.

Jared nodded gently, but he raised an eyebrow when he saw her expression.

“What happened?” Nicole glanced at him as if she did not expect that he could read her mind.

“Nothing,” she just said faintly in reply.

She was accustomed to solving all problems on her own and never depended on others. Jared looked at her with dejection in his eyes.

He wondered if it was because they were not close enough that she did not want to tell him about her problems.

But he did not show his emotion on his face, but just with a hint of a frosty look in his eyes.

He casually curled the corner of his lips and looked at Nicole with a little sense of emptiness and coldness in his eyes.

“If you need help, just let me know,” he said.

The light dimmed, and Nicole had not noticed his change of expression.

But she still felt his concern for her and nodded.

“I will.””

Chapter 312

When Max overheard the conversation between his boss and Nicole, he pretended to look back inadvertently.

He was shocked when he saw Jared looking down and fiddling with something in his hands. Nicole also saw the thing in Jared’s hand-it was a glinting dagger.

She immediately recognized it as the dagger he had held in Nottingbrook State, only that this time he did not sheathe it. The narrow-bladed dagger spun in Jared’s shapely hand.

It looked cool, but Nicole could not help but frown.

She gently put her hand to Jared’s hand, which was fiddling with the dagger, and looked him in the eyes.

“Stop,” she said.

Jared also looked her in the eyes, and his eyes lit up when he saw her concerns in her eyes.

He smiled and said in a low but gentle voice, “Okay.” Max, who was behind the wheel, saw what had happened and was in fright.

Jared would play with something in his hand when he was in a black mood, and he would fiddle with the dagger when his mood was extremely terrible.

So no one dared to talk to him at the moment like this. With this thought in mind, Max looked at Nicole with surprise.

As she could calm the angry lion, this really opened his eyes. Nicole watched with relief as Jared lowered the dagger in his hand.

After dropping Nicole back at school, Jared rolled down the car window and looked out at the scenery outside.

The early fall wind gushed into the cabin, and it felt unusually chilly, but Jared was unruffled.

He rested his chin on his hand and looked out of the window into the infinity. Max looked at Jared and frowned disapprovingly.

When Nicole was with Jared, he seemed to be afraid that she would feel cold and would almost never open the window.

But now that Nicole had left, the only person who could restrain him was no longer there.

Max sighed silently at the thought of this.

“Continue where we left off.” Jared suddenly spoke with a steep, frosty voice.

Recalling his discussion with Jared before Nicole came into the car, Max continued the topic with no hesitation, talking about what Michael had done over the years, one worse than the other, and it seemed that after half a year in office, the incidence rate at San Joto Central Hospital had more than doubled. Michael had been conscientious and worked hard for the first half of the year, but when he found what benefits his position could bring him, he gradually lowered his code of ethics and revealed his actual desires.

It seemed that what was presented before was only a show.

Max tightened his grip on the steering wheel as he talked about Michael’s evil deeds since taking office. Michael was such an unscrupulous man.

He put money over everything else.

He would ask the worst doctors in the hospital to treat those patients who were less wealthy, probably thinking that the patients could not do much about it even if something wrong were to happen. LIFT He had never gone on duty, and his favorite pastime was eating, drinking, gambling, and womanizing.

Not only that, he often targeted the beautiful female doctors and nurses in the hospital who had no background.

If they did not comply, he would threaten to fire them and stop them from finding jobs in all hospitals in San Joto hospital.

He had become a monster. Jared had a stern look in his eyes upon hearing this.

No wonder Michael dared to disobey him last time.

There was no reason to keep such a person any longer.

 

Chapter 313

Max did not hear what Jared said and looked back.

“We have heard nothing about Michael for so long.

Could it be…” Jared was abroad for the most part of the year, but he knew what was happening in Hustuaburg.

It was the Johnston family that appointed Michael to the position, but there was not a peep out of them when Michael had done such a terrible job.

Someone must have put sand in the wheels. Jared had apparently thought of this long ago, and he already had a candidate in mind.

Just that when he thought of that person, his expression would become glacial.

He lazily leaned back in the seat, looking at the lights and heavy traffic flying past the window outside with an assured look in his eyes. “There is no rush,” he said.

His voice was smug, and Max could tell there was a hint of indifference in it.

“They will show themselves.” Max was confused, but he would not question Jared’s decision.

He nodded his head and then said hesitantly, “There is news from my father: Mr. Rogers Sr. has changed his will.” “He has reduced the shares that his eldest son could get in his company family to a minimum of 2.8 percent, and his second son’s shares have also been reduced than before, probably only about 5 percent, and the rest…” Jared looked at the scenery outside the window with a sneer,” would be all given to Shawn,” he said.

Shawn, the person whom he saw at the Rogers family birthday party, was always with Mr. Rogers Sr. Max was surprised how Jared knew that but thinking of his boss’s ability, his expression calmed down again.

“Yes, and as far as I know, Mr. Rogers Sr. seems to have been looking for someone.” Jared looked unperturbed.

Mr. Rogers Sr. used to be the mover and shaker in the business world, but he was making stupid mistakes when he got old.

He even wanted to pass the throne to a real jackal. “He is not looking for someone.” Jared looked calm as he tapped the index finger of his right hand with a thoughtful look on his handsome face.

“What he is looking for is a wonder drug.” Infection to an external injury can cause poliomyelitis.

Patients with this condition will be tormented by endless systemic pain, nervous convulsions, intermittent memory loss, delirium, and even the final mental illness and death, and people who are exposed to this special disease usually end up committing suicide.

But the chance of being infected by this disease is low, and the most common cases are seen in children or adolescents with stunted growth. Jared narrowed his eyes at the thought of Mr. Rogers Sr.’s ashen face.

Mr. Rogers Sr. must have been invaded by some mutated strain by chance to be able to get infected with this disease at his age.

But there were few genuine coincidences in this world.

Someone must have been behind this, and the chance for Mr. Rogers Sr. to find a wonder drug was slim.

“Let’s go.” Jared pulled back his eyes and told Max.

He could not care less about what happened in the Rogers family.

Mr. Rogers Sr. had better pray hard, as no one could help him.

Chapter 314

Chapter 314 Nicole was getting a lot of stares on her way back to the dormitory.

June and Lulu were there and exultant, and when they saw Nicole enter.

Lulu pointed to the computer and said, “Come and take a look, Nicole.

After your brothers said you were from the Riddle family, those people on the Internet are frantically deleting their posts.” June was looking at her phone and then said to Nicole with a cheerful face, “I didn’t expect you to be so badass; you even saved Lulu’s brother.

Did you know Jimmy is the main operator of the campus forum? He has blocked all those posts that smear you and even banned those haters.” June and Lulu glanced at each other, both feeling extremely vindicated.

But Nicole was insouciant.

She did not really care what stories about her those people were making up every day, but seeing the two of them so excited, she could not help but smile. Lulu looked at Nicole and clenched her little fists.

“You may not know how bad their mouths are if you don’t surf the Internet.

Now serenity has finally returned to the world.” When the voices of the Riddle brothers came on the school radio broadcast in the afternoon, Lulu was on campus.

She could not be happier to see the awed expression on those people’s faces around her as Nicole’s identity was finally revealed.

Just that Nicole had told her not to reveal her identity to anyone, but judging by the Riddle brothers’ attitude, it did not look like they were against it.

So she spoke what was on her mind.

“Why did you tell me not to reveal your identity before, Nicole?” : June looked at Nicole in bafflement, as she did not know Nicole had told Lulu this. Nicole looked at the two of them and said calmly, “I didn’t want to cause so much trouble at the time, but now it doesn’t matter anymore.” Before this, she did not want to get too close to the Riddle brothers for fear of offending their fans.

But now, she did not mind because her brothers revealed the truth only because they wanted to protect her.

As Nicole was downplaying the matter, June and Lulu did not ask further as they knew Nicole did not take these things to heart. Nicole looked at the worried face of Lulu and patted her on the head, then looked at June and said in a gentle voice, “Let’s go out for a good meal after this.” Lulu and June both nodded.

The monthly exam was imminent, and they all were not in the mood to hang out now.

The hour hand of the clock was pointing at ten.

Nicole had cleaned herself up and was now lying on the bed, ready to rest.

She stared at the black mobile phone, waiting for the message that seemed to never come, and frowned in deep thought. The other party did not reply to her message, most likely because something had happened over there, and they did not want to tell her.

As it got later into the night, Nicole closed her eyes, allowing himself to fall into the deepest dream slowly. In the darkness, she was bound by her hands and eyes, struggling as she was carried away, ahead of

her, an endless abyss. She was just an insignificant person, and she had heard their discussion that it would be prudent to make an example of her first.

She thought calmly upon hearing that.

She knew it; whether she stood up or not, the outcome would be the same.

The question was why.

It was just a dream that she could barely remember.

Not the emotions involved were impactful. When Nicole woke up the next day, her eyes were still a little red, and that showed how emotionally affected she had been.

Nicole washed his face with cold water and then looked in the mirror at her frosty yet beautiful face.

She stood up and walked out with a wooden face.

It was a new day, and the sun would always rise.

Even if the past had turned into nightmares, it could still not stop her.

The weather was good.

Edwin was sitting in his swivel chair.

In front of him, a powerful computer blinked with red lights.

Chapter 315

He did not look at the stone-faced doctor standing across from him. “How much longer will it last?” The brunette, mixed-raced doctor asked.

“They seem to have hired highly capable hackers to steal our data.

The security wall we put up can hold them off for five more days at most,” Edwin sighed.

Rowan’s eyes filled with anger as he heard this.

“We’re business partners.

How do you expect me to go back to the big guy after such a huge mistake that you made?” Edwin felt resigned.

He rubbed his face and thought to himself, ‘I really messed this up, huh? This is the kind of business we run, but now, our reputation is at stake.’ His gaze became firmer as he turned to look at Rowan and said softly, “There’s still some time.

I’ll handle it.” Rowan’s anger slowly subsided as he looked at him.

“Who else can you ask for help? Even the best people you have were useless during the data breach, no?” He asked sarcastically. Because this was their first partnership, the information that Rowan wanted them to pass out was not of a high level.

However, the amount of it was large. He did not expect that someone as reputable in this field as Edwin would mess up. Though, Edwin was not angry at the mockery.

He gently stroked the mouse in his hand as he thought of what the advanced hacker had said to him.

He then thought of Preston’s reaction when he heard about Nicole, and his eyes welled up.

“Don’t worry.

I’ll think of something in five days.” Despite Rowan’s bad temper, he could not help but give a slight nod at Edwin’s sincerity.

“I’ll try my best to find someone who can help you.” Although there were tons of skillful people in the medical field, none specialized in this matter.

Edwin nodded as he heard those words.

He picked up his car keys, turned to look at Rowan, and slightly tilted his head.

“Where to? I’ll drive you.” Rowan waved his hand impatiently.

His eyes were stone cold as he looked at Edwin.

‘I didn’t even get to send Nicole off due to this mess,’ he thought.

He pulled out his phone to make a call and walked out without saying another word.

Edwin shrugged and went down to get his car.

The moment he drove out of the building, he noticed something strange.

‘Is that… a helicopter?’ Edwin had always known that Rowan came from a prominent background, but he had certainly underestimated the power this mixed-race doctor held.

His eyes then darkened as he thought about the hacker who breached their system. ‘Who is this person that is going against Rowan and his people?’ He suddenly realized he was in the

middle of a battle between great forces.

‘I am bound to suffer an unimaginable blow if I don’t solve this crisis.’ It was not what Edwin wanted.

But he was indeed in a crossfire. His face turned pale as he thought about it. Not only was he in a difficult position, but his self-esteem was also badly affected.
