Ch. 346..350: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 346-350

Chapter 346

Everything happened in a blink of an eye.

Nicole could not react at all to what was happening when Jared pulled away his hand, his voice sounding like a dream.

“This is payback.”

Nicole glanced at him as if some strings in her heart was being plucked. The person standing before her slightly raised his lips, and he looked like the prettiest scene ever. Nicole then covered her chest with a blank look.

‘Who could have withstood that?!

She turned her head around first as she walked to the other side. Her back was straight and if one were to look closely, it was an imperceptible stiffness to it. Jared looked at her back, the smile on his lips deepened.

He lazily followed behind her, but his pace was only half-a-step behind.

Looking from behind, their shadows merged together, and that man’s back looked like a protector, eternally guarding the girl’s peace.

Jared then led Nicole ahead. Soon, she saw a group of people at the foot of the hill, seemingly holding some kind of event there.

Nicole curiously went into the crowd to have a look, and she saw the sign hanging not too far away, with a large “Mount Daytonna Race” printed on it.

I

!

Nicole’s eyes lit up as she said to Jared, “Interesting, can I participate?”

Jared raised his eyebrow. “You know how to race?”

Il

He had brought her here just to allow her to relax and did not expect her to take the initiative to participate.

“Of course.” Nicole smiled. She had always loved racing, however, when she was with Mrs. Wallace Sr., she did not reveal it for fear of worrying the latter.

Now that she had nothing that she feared before Jared, she really wanted to give it a try. “Go then.” Jared was not surprised. Nicole was such a person that nothing would surprise him anymore.

She nodded and walked over to the registration booth in the front.

At this moment, a lazy young man was seated there in a daze as he bit onto a leaf.

Seeing Nicole walk over, he did not even blink as there was a tinge of impatience in his voice.

“Shoo, what’s a young lady doing here?”

This was the most dangerous race in the entirety of San Joto. This girl, with how pretty and weak she was, it was obvious that she was some girl a rich scion had brought over to spectate.

One need to know that those who would come, and race were generally from very wealthy

backgrounds

After all, one may need to change cars and accessories every few months, and that was not something an average family could afford.

Those guys who had registered all looked over and a pretty girl like Nicole was rare in San Joto as many began to whistle at her.

Nicole looked at the person at the registration booth with a cold and playful look, looking wild and free

“I want to run the whole course.”

Seeing that the girl was not joking, his entire expression turned sullen. Racing here was equivalent to gambling on a race, and the odds were even higher than normal. If she were to join the race, everyone with half a brain will bet on her losing, and by then he, as the banker, will lose everything!

He waved her off impatiently, looking at Nicole as if she was a money-losing prospect.

Nicole’s expression did not change as she pointed at the rule sheet before the young man, and her eyes squinted a little. “But it’s written there that any person who loves racing can participate, with no restrictions on age, gender or identity. So why can’t I participate?”

Chapter 347

Just as the man opened his mouth and was about to say something, he saw a familiar figure by the corner of his eyes. The latter had walked over to Nicole’s side and had stood somewhat affectionately beside her.

The young man immediately gawked. “M-Mr. J-Johnston?” Jared casually twirled Nicole’s hair with his fingertips and did not even deign to give the young man a look as he said, “Take my car out and let her use it.”

‘WHAT?’

The young man had seen generous people before but had never seen someone so generous before.

Giving such an amateur an intermediate level car was already equivalent to giving her the best. The young man had not expected Jared Johnston to let her drive his personal ride.

“Mr. Johnston, but that’s…”

A Koenigsegg, the most top-of-the-line sports car in the world.

It only needed 2.58 seconds to go from zero to a hundred kilometers per hour. It was build using the most high-end of carbon fiber and was the lightest of them all. It could reach a top speed of 900 and was considered the pinnacle of sport cars, being regarded as the soul of all sport cars.

Yet, for him to let this girl drive such a car, the young man’s face was trembling. It was deplorable.

Yet, this was Jared’s request, and he had no right to refuse, much less saying no.

The top-of-the-line supercars by the side were already in their positions with only a few standing outside, seemingly waiting for the race to start. A few of them impatiently shouted at the registration booth.

“Eh, Mack, what’s the matter over there? Why aren’t we starting yet?”

The young man quickly wiped the sweat off his forehead as he yelled back at the jeering crowd. “Shut up! What’s the hurry? You want to meet your maker that badly?”

Almost all of these people were from prestigious families of San Joto and had formed this car club for fun. There was no such thing as courtesy between these people. After all, their status was all about the same, it would be abnormal if they were too polite to one another.

The person being called Mack turned around and look at Jared and his voice became much more respectful. He then reconfirmed with Jared, “Mr. Johnston, you mean to take your car out and have this, uh, lady, drive it?”

Jared gave a faint “Yeah.” He had finally deigned to shift his gaze from Nicole onto Mack as he asked, “How many people today?”

“Fifteen, so far.” Mack replied.

Fifteen?

The corners of Jared’s lips raised. “That’s enough. Start the round. I’ll be the dealer.”

‘WHAT?’

This time, Mack was really flabbergasted. Normally they would wait until at least about twenty -five before starting the round. It was only then they would be sure to make a profit.

“But with Jared being the dealer…’

‘Alright!’ Mack gritted his teeth. In any case, with this woman around they would lose money for sure, so if there’s someone else to take over, he was all for it.

“Well, you’re the boss!” As they spoke, the Koenigsegg was brought out from the garage, the purple- gray car was low key yet exquisite at the same time, carrying with it the roar of cold steel. The car was placed on the sixteenth starting lane, the last spot. Trying to get first place was almost impossible but it also had the least of risks.

This was the safest method Mack had chosen out of consideration of Nicole’s safety.

He was very sure that Jared’s attitude towards this girl was unusual, and he cannot let anything happen to her here. Nicole’s expression was impassive as ever. She looked at this beautiful car and asked, “Is this yours?”

Chapter 348

Chapter 348 Jared nodded. “The one I have stored here.” Nicole raised her eyes a little as she gave Jared a somewhat satisfied look. “Good taste.”

Jared looked at her gracefully making her way to the car as a smile too appeared on his face.

Immediately after, he turned to Mack and tapped his right index finger lightly, his voice flat. “Half a million starting bet, no upper limit, no skulduggery.”

Mack hurriedly accented as he went to the other side to give orders.

Nicole walked on the track, and many looked at her with an eye for drama. The car attendant next to her handed her the helmet and protective gear. She then casually put it on. When the attendant saw there was no nervousness or excitement on her face, she pursed her lips.

‘What are you pretending for? You’re just a woman who happens to be a partner of a rich man. Why are you trying to show off your “driving skills” here?’ She reluctantly told Nicole the various precautions of the race, and towards the end of it, she casually told her this.

“A racer should change into a specialized racing gear, otherwise the protective equipment will not perform their best. If anything were to happen the danger will be exponentially greater.”

She had wanted to intimidate Nicole. Now that the race was about to start, even if Nicole wanted to change into one now, it was definitely too late.

Yet Nicole did not turn pale as she had hoped. She instead looked at the road conditions and the direction instructions before her. It was a two-lap race, from the bottom of the mountain to the top, and then from the top to the bottom, without stopping.

Seeing that Nicole just straight up ignored her, the car attendant stopped her feet angrily.

“Good luck!”

The way she said that did not sound sincere at all.

Everyone by the side were also looking at this woman who got onto the track last before the round started. All of them were sure that she had a backer, otherwise why would they let her occupy the safest position on the track?

“This woman does not know her place. She’s just a pretty thing, so why is she here participating in a race that is potentially life-threatening?’

Someone whispered in private.

“Eh, Joe, who are you betting on?” “What else? All in on No.16 losing, of course!”

There was no guarantee who would win, but the odds of betting someone losing was better than betting on someone winning.

‘Moreover, that woman does not look like a professional racer at a glance!

Ugler 348

Almost a good four-fifth of the crowd were of the same mind as Joe as they looked at Nicole with disapproval and contempt.

Nicole’s eyes were impassive. She was using the last few minutes to memorize the map of the track by the entrance and was very calm.

When all of the racers beside her saw this, they started laughing.

“Ah, what a waste of a good car.” They were all looking at this Koenigsegg with covetous eyes.

The man beside the person who said that rolled his eyes at the guy. This man was the most famous dandy of San Joto. He was taking a puff and when Nicole came his eyes immediately lit up and took a measure of her many times over.

‘I’ve not seen such a pretty one in a while!

Her face was fair and tender, her waist so thin you could grab it with the full of your hand, plus that long and slender legs…

 

Chapter 349

He had no interest in the cold and icy sports car. Pretty ladies, on the other hand, were up his alley.

Thinking of this, the man put off his cigarette as he walked over and knocked on Nicole’s window.

Seeing that Nicole’s icy-looking eyes looking at him impassively, a look of uncontrollable astonishment appeared in the man’s eyes.

‘She’s definitely gorgeous!’

Nicole looked at his lustful eyes and frowned coldly.

The man could tell that she was irritable, so he quickly put on a polite facade as he looked at her. Yet, his words were still repulsive. “Miss, how many days have you been with your man for him to let you drive this? Come with me and I, Solomon Freeman, will pay you double, alright?”

Nicole looked at his impassively, the emotions in her eyes were so faint as if she could not be bothered looking at a scum like him.

She turned away and quietly waited for the race to start. Seeing that he was just outright ignored, Solomon growled in anger. “Bitch, you’ll pay for this insult!”

As he said that, he adjusted his clothes as he cockily walked towards his own race car. He often come here to pick up girls and he had been generous enough that he had never been refused before. He finally ran into someone that well suited his tastes, but she had rejected him so mercilessly! He then saw a few of the racers in their cars sniggering at him. Thinking of this, a hint of cruelty appeared in Solomon’s eyes. He was on position 14, not too far away from Nicole’s car. He was very familiar with the roads here. Even if he was not as skilled at driving, taking care of a woman was still more than enough. “This is the price of that insult!’ When Solomon thought of this, a smirk appeared on his lips.

When the people by the side saw Nicole snubbed Solomon, all of them were surprised.

Most of the women who came here were generally after sugar daddies, even when someone was to risk their lives to challenge the course, it was also usually done to attract the attention of the rich, to inflate their worth. Yet, Nicole had straight up snubbed him!

‘Was she not attracted to Solomon’s superficial looks?’ Thinking of this, a look of contempt appeared on their faces.

‘This woman, she actually knows how to reel in the big fishes!’

Nicole did not bother with what the crowd was thinking. She had memorized the course map within the few minutes and her expression was very faint.

A few seconds before the start of the race, the betting was about to close. On the screen showing the bets placed, almost everyone was betting on Nicole to lose. Yet, within just a few seconds, the side of the turntable betting on Nicole winning suddenly appeared, making it a 50-50 bet!

Someone had used the power of a single person to bet against those who had betted on Nicole losing in a perfect confrontation!

The bet was 50-50, that mean the money the person betting on Nicole winning was the total amount of everyone who had betted on Nicole losing. The car betting here started at half a million, and almost eight hundred of the thousand odd people here had betted on Nicole losing, with many more adding on to the bets. One could imagine what a massive number that was. In an instant, the bet on Nicole winning had completely surpassed the bet on car No.3 winning. Some of the audience had not experienced this before and was completely stunned by the show of force.

Many were just gloating, and equally as many were stunned by the money involved. Many were also thinking that the person betting on Nicole winning had a screw loose in the head. Who would spend so much money betting on someone who clearly looked like someone who did not know how to race at a glance?

On the other side of the screen, the countdown at come towards the end. At the last three seconds, all cars were at their positions, including those towards the tail end of the track.

 

Chapter 350

Chapter 350 Gary, who was seated in car No.3 was focusing on the track. His eyebrows were a little furrowed, seemingly in a bad mood. Both of his hands were on the steering wheel as he waited for the call to run wild.

When it came to racing, Gary had absolute confidence in himself. He had started racing since he was fourteen, and ever since his second race, he had not lost a single one!

That was why even though many people betted on Nicole losing, many also betted on car No.3 winning

They were all veteran spectators and knew very well how to maximize their earnings.

Four-tenth on Gary winning, and three-fifth on Nicole losing, that way they will earn no matter what!

They were all doing their calculations in their minds, with each of them impressed by their own wisdom.

Mack looked at the screen where Jared had maxed out the bet on Nicole winning and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

‘Mr. Johnston is as ruthless as ever.”

Unexpectedly, it was the man who had been single all these whiles being the scariest when he finally gets a partner!

‘For him to do something as crazy as this without even blinking, he is indeed the model of my generation, and he is to be admired.’

Just as the countdown ended, Mack quickly closed the bet and once again wiped off the sweat off his face. He looked at Jared and found the latter had a blank look on his face. It was as if the lump of money he had just tossed in was nothing but a pile of garbage.

Mack sighed and felt that he could never reach this level.

As the signal gun rang, all of the cars sped off the starting point like an arrow being loosed. Nicole’s car was at the last position, so she did not slam the accelerator. Yet, with the car’s excellent performance alone she easily overtook three to four cars.

After that, it was all dependent on the driver’s own capabilities. Nicole quickly made a turn. She had already memorized the entire track layout and did not oversteer or taking the wrong path.

Even so, the two cars behind her quickly caught up and overtook her. Just like that, Nicole was second place from behind.

The entire race was broadcast on the big screen, and as Nicole had the biggest bets on her, she was given priority for the shots.

When the crowd saw that she was being overtaken even when driving such a good car, everyone could not help but to boo her.

Sure enough, betting on her losing was the right choice.

Recalling that someone had wagered a large sum on No.16 winning, many were actually filled with doubts.

Now everyone could see that it was probably her sugar daddy betting on her!

And the thought of a stupid idiot of a sugar daddy appeared in the minds of many.

This sort of person was known widely as a rich dumbass. Seeing Nicole was driving so casually, the operator could no longer bear to see it and swapped the live feed over to car No.3.

No.3 was a Pagani 760RS, and its capabilities could be said to be one of the best.
