Ch. 406..410: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 406-410

Chapter 406

He managed to draw Karen’s attention away as the latter bore a deep hatred for Nicole in her eyes.

“It’s all because of Nicole. She must’ve told our son something. Otherwise, no matter how rebellious Preston was, he never dared to talk back to me!”

When Dillon heard Nicole’s name, he also frowned a little in anger. He let go of Karen’s hand as he hissed. “You’re right. When I was almost forced to kneel back then, Preston did not react at all. Nicole must’ve done something to him!”

The husband and wife discussed about Nicole for a good while before Dillon finally remembered something important and looked on worriedly at Karen as he said, “If Preston is really close to Nicole, that means he will not help us and might get in our way too. What do you think we should do?”

Karen also had thought of this as she squinted, and a cold glint appeared in her eyes.

“Then we’ll do it ourselves.”

Dillon looked at her with surprise. A moment later, he lowered his voice as he said, “But Nicole is so on guard against us…”

Karen glanced at him and sneered, “I don’t believe she doesn’t have any weaknesses!”

Early next morning, Zeke appeared on time on the track field with two large dark eye circles on his face.

Nicole was already standing there as she calmly looked at her watch to confirm that he was not late before casually saying. “Your mission today is to run thirty laps. This is the number of kilometers you will need to normally run every single day. Once you are used to these thirty laps, I’ll add on other training.”

Zeke could not be bothered to say anything else as he started his new day of running.

Nicole looked at his face as a trace of emotion appeared in her eyes. ‘He is still, so, so far away from being able to start learning martial arts.’ By the time Zeke was done running, the sky was already bright, and as the orange-colored dawn light shone upon Nicole, Zeke’s heart inexplicably jumped wildly. ‘What’s going on? Did I run too much that I’m getting heart arrhythmia?”

He slowly stopped down to stop his wildly beating heart. His legs were so sore he could barely stand and needed to rest a good while before he could find his feet again.

Seeing that he was done running, Nicole did not say much as she turned around and headed to the classroom. It was already Friday and was the day of the Riddle family banquet, and she also had the Math Olympiad tomorrow.

She did not have much time left, with the monthly exam coming on next Monday.

‘So troublesome.’

Nicole sighed. She had never seriously tried to be a student before, and now she realized that trying to be one was harder than being a top-level hacker.

She then glumly walked toward the classroom building.

From afar, she saw Spencer and Samuel.

Assuming that they were waiting for her, Nicole walked toward them. When she got closer, she then noticed there was a thin figure standing beside them.

It was the angry Norah who had not gone home for several days now.

Samuel was seemingly trying to advise her. “Norah, you’ve been mad for a few days now. Mom was asking me, why did you not come in when you came to grandpa’s home the other day?” Nicole frowned a little. ‘Norah went back to the Riddle family manor?’ Why did she not know about this?

Norah’s back was facing Nicole, so she naturally did not see her as she lowered her head and pretended to be innocent as she said.

“I heard that grandpa was sick, so I wanted to go back and visit him… but now everyone only thinks of Nicole, and not me anymore… I’m no longer a Riddle. I’m ashamed to see grandpa.”

‘Ah, so the day she went back was the day Snow lost her pink diamond.’ Nicole’s eyes narrowed as she managed to connect something together. She then walked up, and she said coldly, “Is it because you’re ashamed to see grandpa or because you’ve taken something away at the door?”

Chapter 407

What Nicole said made Norah’s body stiffen. She then turned around as her eyes widened.

‘Nicole?’

‘Why is she here?’ She had waited here for Samuel and Spencer on purpose and finally found the chance to get them to persuade her to go home. Unexpectedly, she ran straight into Nicole here.

‘Isn’t she supposed to be in class right now?’ Norah wondered.

“Why are you looking at me so surprised? Feeling guilty now?” Nicole raised her eyebrow. She had felt that it was odd that Snow suddenly lost her pink diamond, yet only she and her brothers returned home that night.

Snow and Raine would not be so stupid to be stealing their own things. Nicole could not help but think, ‘Then the only suspect here was….’ Norah immediately panicked.

“What nonsense are you spouting? Why would I feel guilty?” She quickly played innocent. “I know you don’t want me to go back home, so I won’t, but don’t you try to frame me.” Nicole raised her eyebrow.

“I haven’t even said what you’re feeling guilty for, so how did you tell I’m trying to frame you? Unless… you knew what Snow had lost?” When she said that, Samuel and Spencer looked at each other. “What are you trying to say, Nicole?”

‘Did Snow lose something? How come we didn’t know?’ the Riddle brothers wondered. Nicole looked at the two and said coldly, “Snow lost her pink diamond the day we went back to visit grandpa.”

Norah’s face immediately turned red. “What does losing her pink diamond have anything to do with me? What could I get out of it?”

Nicole frowned a little. “It might not do any good for you, but the first person her suspicion fell upon was me when she lost her diamond. Perhaps, it is to, you know, ‘frame’ me.”

Norah’s heart skipped a beat. She did not expect Nicole to have guessed it.

Yet she cannot admit to it no matter what!

“I did not do that! Don’t you accuse me without proof!”

“Accuse you without proof?” Nicole laughed. “Then why were you standing at the door and did not go in?” “… I said it already. It’s because I was ashamed.”. “Really?” Nicole’s gaze became sharper, “Since you don’t want to admit it, then how about we search your dorm room then?”

This time, Norah was truly stunned. She had not gone back home for the past few days, so the pink diamond could only be stored in her dorm room. She thought that no one would suspect her, so she kept it there. After all, that pink diamond looked very valuable from the outset.

Yet, Norah did not expect Nicole wanted to search her dorm room. She immediately panicked a little.

“So, out with it. Did you steal the pink diamond, or not?” Nicole did not want to push Norah to the brink and wanted to give her a chance to admit it herself.

With Norah’s back to the wall, her brothers were no longer asking her to go back home as they seemingly believed what Nicole said and were looking at her suspiciously.

Norah could not bear it any longer, so she could only cry. “Nicole, I know you don’t like me, but you cannot slander me like this! Back then, mommy and daddy and my brothers all dote on me, and they had not given me anything.

“I don’t care about that pink diamond! Now, mommy, daddy, and my brothers all dote on you… Everything is yours now. I’m already not going back home, so what more do you want? Is chasing me out

of the house, not enough? Are you only satisfied when I’m finally sitting in jail?” Norah bawled as if Nicole was the one that was bullying her. Samuel and Spencer looked at each other and did not know what to say.

Samuel was the naive one and could not help but believe this little sister he had been living with for so many years.

“Nicole, let’s top suspecting Norah. Snow and Raine had been lying through their teeth. It might be them who are trying to frame you!”

 

Chapter 408

Nicole’s brows furrowed. She did not expect Samuel to be such a naive simpleton. ‘With Snow so concerned about Harvey, if he were to find out about her losing the diamond, wouldn’t she be afraid that he’d be angry? ‘No, she’d not tell such a lie.’ When Norah saw Nicole keeping silent, she thought that the latter had admitted defeat and continued. “I know, you’re afraid that I’ll fight with you for their affection… but w-we’re still family… Do you really believe Snow and Raine but not me?”

What Norah said made Spencer feel a little conflicted.

“Nicole, you should’ve told me earlier about what Snow and Raine were doing. I’ll try to investigate this matter. Before we have any conclusions, let’s believe Norah for now.”

Norah had not been home for a few days now, and it was pitiful for her to be alone at school. Nicole, upon seeing how gullible the two brothers were could not help but sigh. ‘However, as for evidence. if I want to investigate the matter, it’ll be far, far easier than anyone else,’ thought Nicole as her lips curled.

She gave a confident smile. “Alright, let’s wait until I’ve collected the evidence then. I’ll go back to class first.”

It was almost time for class, and she did not want to waste any more time with Norah. “Nicole…” Both Spencer and Samuel watched Nicole leave coldly and thought she was angry.

Norah took the opportunity to quip. “Samuel, Spencer, you’ve seen it yourself. With Nicole hating me so much… It’s better… if I don’t go home.” Samuel sighed. “No, you haven’t come home for so many days now. Mom is worried.” Although he felt that Nicole would never lie too, he was still unable to bring himself to suspect Norah.

“Enough. It has been many days now. Stop this nonsense. You should go home and appreciate the time you have with mom and dad,” Spencer reminded Norah. Norah, sensing something was not right,

immediately asked, “Why are you saying this, Spencer?”

Spencer did not hide the matter from her. “I accidentally heard Sean tell mom and dad that he had found clues about your biological parents.” “How could that be?” Norah was stunned, and her eyes widened. Both Spencer and Samuel were taken aback. ‘Why was Norah’s reaction so bizarre…’ Norah immediately realized that she had overreacted and quickly explained. “I… I just did not expect Sean to have found them so soon.”

Charter 408

Yet, a trace of panic flashed in her heart.

‘How could that be. ‘That family had always hidden their tracks. They shouldn’t be found in the first place…’ she thought.

“Yeah, we did not expect it to be so fast either, so… go home. After all, you don’t have much time left together.” Spencer’s tone was not as close as before and sounded more like a friendly reminder.

“I understand…” Norah dared not play coy anymore and could only nod in agreement. “We’ll be leaving first then.” Seeing that she finally agreed, the twins were relieved and said goodbye to her. While Norah watched the two leaving, her expression turned cold and sullen. – She did not expect Sean to manage to find the trails of her biological parents.

“They want to get rid of me just like that?’ “No way in hell… I will never allow you lot to get rid of me!”

 

Chapter 409

Norah snarled inwardly, ‘There is only… One daughter of the Riddle family, and that is me!’ Inside the classroom, Gary was looking at the questions in his hand as he frowned irritably.

He was not concerned about his monthly exam results, but due to the bet Nicole had with Mr. Kennedy on this Math Olympiad, he was under a massive amount of pressure. As he looked up and saw Nicole coming back and sitting down casually, she did or said nothing, yet she gave him an inexplicable sense of calmness.

Recalling her clear and moving thank you yesterday, his irritation at trying to solve the math problems dropped by a lot.

Jack, who was beside Gary, noticed his gaze, and a thought crossed his mind. ‘Gary seemed to be really treating Nicole differently.’

Seemingly thinking of something, he turned to look at June, who was quietly doing her revision, as a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

Vivian also saw how Gary looked at Nicole, and as she remembered what he said to her yesterday, a cold smile appeared on her face as she took out her phone and sent a message out. (Gary took another glance at Nicole.] Harvey, who got the message, turned off the screen before looking at Ms. Thompson before him. His smile was warm as ever.

“Ms. Thompson, I’ve understood what happened the other day and have met Nicole as well.”

Ms. Thompson gave Harvey a satisfied look. This grandson of Mr. Ellison had won her and the class countless accolades, so when she spoke to him, her tone would subconsciously soften. “Oh? Tell me, what was going on actually? Did Nicole greatly affect the overall grade of the class, or did she affect the grades of the top students in class?”

When Ms. Thompson recalled Nicole’s beautiful face, a look of faint disgust appeared in her eyes.

‘I could tell she isn’t a good student from a glance!’ Thinking of when Nicole had made a fool out of her back then, Ms. Thompson’s expression turned sullen as she hoped that Harvey could report Nicole in. Yet, when Harvey heard what Ms. Thompson said, he still maintained his smile as he said flatly, “Ms. Thompson, Nicole does indeed have a bad influence on the class.”

“As expected!” Ms. Thompson’s eyes lit up as if she had caught onto Nicole’s weakness. However, Harvey suddenly paused as he pivoted. “She seems to always have trouble arising around her. Probably because of her beauty, many would go to her class to see her, causing the high school division students to lose interest in their studies.”

As he said that, Harvey looked up at Ms. Thompson. “After all, the exam is on next Monday, so

shouldn’t you do something about the atmosphere in the high school division, Ms. Thompson?” Ms. Thompson’s expression suddenly turned glum. What Harvey had insinuated was that Nicole was innocent.

He implied that it was all the other students who ran over to see Nicole… and it was because of her beauty!

Ms. Thompson almost wanted to puke. ‘But Harvey will not lie to me, so there must be a problem with the students at the high school division!’ As she thought of this, Ms. Thompson stood up and prepared to go to the high school division building. Before she left, she suddenly recalled something as she asked Harvey with some trepidation.

” Harvey, Nicole has no special relationship with your grandfather, right?” . How could she forget that scene when Nicole directly called Mr. Ellison. She did not want to kick a brick wall a second time. Hearing this, Harvey had a glint in his eyes as he looked at her with some confusion on his face. “My

grandfather? Why would Nicole have anything to do with him?” He purposely answered with a question, looking like he did not know anything at all. Only did Ms. Thompson feel relief as she walked out. She whispered to herself.

“Just like what I said. There’s no way Nicole knows Mr. Ellison. She must’ve got his number by accident!”

 

Chapter 410

‘‘Mr.Ellison is a just and upright man; it was reasonable for him to put his manners aside when he heard Nicole say such unpleasant things.

‘Nicole may very well have nothing to do with his anger toward her" thought Ms.Thompson with a sneer on her face.

As if victory was at hand, she hurriedly said to Harvey, "Harvey, go back to your class first.I have something to attend to."

As she said that, she turned and left the office.She noticed the strange look in Harvey's eyes, but she still lugged her barrel-like waist as she stomped out on her stiletto high heels.

Soon, Ms.Thompson arrived at the corridor of the eleventh grade, and although it was almost time for class, Class B's doorway was still crowded and very noisy.

There was a look of puzzlement on Ms.Thompson's face as she could not understand what was going on.

Many of the students did not look like they were from the high school division.

There were even some from the university division, and she could not help but wonder.

"Did everyone in school come over here? What are they doing here?' As she came to the crowd, she grabbed one of the students and asked, "What are you lot gathering here for?"

It was so noisy it did not look like they were about to have their exams! When a boy saw that it was her, his originally irritable gaze immediately changed as he cautiously said, "Ms.Thompson, we are here to apologize."

‘Apologize? Apologize for what?' Ms.Thompson wanted to ask more, but that boy, who seemed to be from the twelfth grade, knew very well the grievances between Nicole and Ms.

Thompson, so he raised his hand and called out.

"Ms.Thompson is here! Let's leave!"

When everyone saw that Ms.Thompson was really here, they reacted quickly as they took their stuff and fled.

Barely a moment later, there was no one at the door of the eleventh grade.

Ms.Thompson had no outlet to vent the questions she had, so she was pissed and hated Nicole even more.

Ms.Thompson could not hold her irritation as she stepped into Class B.

The students inside the class had already heard that yell, so everyone was already sitting properly in their seats.

The class looked very peaceful and quiet.

Ms.Thompson ignored them and snorted coldly.

The boy on the first row looked at Ms.Thompson and sheepishly asked, 'Ms.Thompson, what are you doing here?"

Ms.Thompson looked up and sneered as she said, "What am I doing here? If I had not come here, you brats would have turned this place upside down!"

When she said that, her eyes were affixed to Nicole as if she was talking to the latter.

Nicole's expression remained impassive as she leaned back lazily on the car.She pulled out a book, not deigning to even look at Ms.Thompson, who was here to look for trouble.

Ms.Thompson could never stand Nicole's indifference, so she walked over and slammed on Nicole's desk.

"Nicole, how can you be so oblivious? You can't tell I'm talking about you?"

Everyone had witnessed Ms.Thompson being made a fool before Nicole and knew clearly what her words meant.

‘Ms.Thompson is here for payback!’ Everyone knew, yet they could only lower their hands and not speak.Nicole looked up impassively, and as she looked at Ms.Thompson, her voice had an obvious chill to it.

"What's the matter? Did I do something?"

Everyone looked at Ms.Thompson too.

'Yeah, what did Nicole do?"
