Ch. 511..515: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 511-515
Chapter 511
‘‘Chloe must have thought she is good enough and pays scant regard to me"
Looking at the self-satisfied Miley, Daniel had a faint sense of helplessness and disgust in his eyes behind the gold-framed glasses.
Chloe followed behind Alberto.
Alberto felt at ease handling the guests at the first few tables.But the further he went, the more difficult it was for Alberto to cope.
When he came to the fourth table, no one was willing to talk to him.
Chloe held the wineglass in her hand with resentment.
This was the first time she had ever been given the cold shoulder.She raised her head in hatred, wanting to take a look at these people.
Inadvertently, she seemed to see someone she knew.
‘Isn't that Snow?' Chloe turned and wanted to leave.
She almost immediately wanted to pull the ring off her finger, but the more anxious she was, the more difficult it was to take the ring off.
Snow was following Harvey, who was having a chat with the VIPs at the third table.Her eyes widened in surprise when she saw Chloe.
"Chloe?"
'Who?' Harvey looked back, raising an eyebrow when he saw Chloe.
He once met this woman in Nottingbrook State, not expecting that she was also from the Riddle family.He turned to glance at Snow and tilted his head slightly.
“Do you want to go over and say hello?"
Snow, who seemed to have seen Chloe struggle at the fourth table, was sitting at the third table, enjoying the compliments of the people around her.
She could not help but think of showing off.So when she heard what Harvey said, she nodded almost immediately.
"Why not?"
The two of them got up and walked toward the fourth table.
Seeing Snow approach, Chloe almost wanted to turn around and leave.
At this moment, a hoarse and magnetic female voice suddenly came from behind her.
The voice was special, obviously a smoky voice, much like the voice of a successful person.
"Thank you all for coming to the Holder Mansion for the party held for Lloyd, who has just returned."
Harvey did not look back.
When he heard this familiar voice, he had a disdainful look in his eyes.
The reason the Holder family had become so successful so quickly was inseparable from the Ellison family.
Snow was puzzled and wanted to look back, but she dared not, as Harvey did not move.
Chloe heard clearly the name that Nachelle had mentioned and stopped dead in her tracks, then looked back in disbelief.
The man who stood on the stage was none other than Lloyd, whom she had taunted last time.He was unsmiling, with extraordinary grace and poise.
Lloyd disregarded those gazes around him, his eyes scanning over the crowd, and he spotted someone he knew.
Chapter 512
Lloyd looked at the girl from behind and frowned, then ignored Nachelle, who was speaking, and walked off the stage toward the third and fourth tables.
Everyone looked at Lloyd with surprise, as they did not expect that he would be so rude to Nachelle in public.
But Nachelle did not mind.He was looking at his son dotingly and continued speaking, as if she had not been interrupted.
"My son is back, and I hope everyone can see clearly that he is my future successor."
Seeing Lloyd run toward hers, Chloe raised her head and was filled with excitement.
'I didn't expect that Lloyd would still come to me despite how I treated him last time.I knew he was genuine when he looked a t me in Nottingbrook State; his affectionate gaze almost drowned me.That look in his eyes could not possibly be fake"
Thinking of this, Chloe waited confidently for Lloyd, standing calmly in place, with pride in her eyes.
'I didn't expect that Lloyd was from the Holder family.So even if there is still a gap between the Holder and the Johnston families, the Holder family i s still in the same league as the Ellison family, which means they can compete with the Johnston family.I will have everything to gain and nothing to lose to be together with Lloyd"
Alberto looked curiously at his granddaughter and then at Lloyd, who was approaching in a hurry.
"What's going on, Chloe? You and Lloyd know each other?"
Chloe slowly and reticently glanced at Lloyd and nodded.
'That's right, Lloyd is coming for me, obviously.There is nothing wrong for me to admit in advance"
Alberto's face changed instantly.He looked at his granddaughter with pride in her eyes.
The guests at the fourth table had also heard the conversation between Alberto and Chloe.
When they saw Chloe's sworn expression, they were a little confused.
'Could she actually know the guy from the Holder family? Did we miss something here?'
Seeing that Lloyd was getting closer, many people became a little restless.
They looked at Chloe from time to time, almost wanting to say something flattering to Chloe.
But Lloyd stopped before he reached the fourth table.
"Turn around."
Everyone heard his voice, which was soft.He was anxious and did not feel the joy of finding her.
"This back of hers..."
Snow wanted to look back, but when she saw Harvey's face, she froze.
"Can you please turn around?"
Lloyd spoke again, his voice gentle and pleasant yet had a faint hint of anxiety.
Harvey did not know what Lloyd's intention was, but he turned around with a smile, looked at Lloyd, and said meaningfully, "Snow, didn't you hear Lloyd call you? Turn around."
Only then, Snow turned around cautiously.She looked slightly stunned when she saw the face of the man across from her.
The man had a prominent nose, deep -set eyes, and a sharp face as if he had undergone the most ingenious carving of the gods.
‘Isn't he the movie star on the silver screen?!”
Chapter 513
Snow did not expect him to be from the Holder family.
Snow instantly blushed at seeing that he was looking at her.She did not dare to look him in the eyes, just feeling that Lloyd and Harvey looked similar to some extent.
Before she could even feel puzzled, Lloyd spoke with a frosty voice, "You're not her."
His tone of voice seemed a little disappointed.
'Of course, she is abroad all this while.NO way she will appear here"
Then, instead of turning around, he walked straight back to Nachelle without looking back.
Chloe looked awkward, her expression freezing, and she clenched her hands.
'Why would Lloyd ask Snow t o turn around, but he didn't bother to look at me?! She could almost hear the mocking laughter around her.
Chloe finally could not bear it.
She reached out her hand to try to grab Lloyd, who was walking forward, the huge diamond on her finger glittering in under the chandelier.
Chloe was not conscious of this.
She had lost her deportment entirely as she just wanted to grab the man in front of her.
Alberto did not manage to stop her but watched her make such a disrespectful move.
While Snow was staring at Lloyd from behind, she seemed to feel a familiar flash of light in front of her eyes, but she just could not take her eyes off Lloyd.
She looked at Lloyd with emotions, as if she felt he had a very unusual feeling for her.
‘What kind of girl could cause such a man to search and wait for her tirelessly?! The thought of the girl causing such a wonderful man to become infatuated with her made Snow jealous.
While all eyes were on the farce here, the door behind them suddenly opened, and soon a brisk and schadenfreude voice came.
"It's been a while since we last met, Mr.Holder."
Everyone was stunned at hearing the voice.
Nachelle lowered her arm almost immediately and quickly adjusted her expression to reveal a solemn and gentle smile.
Everyone looked back.
As they were facing the light, they could not see who was at the door.
But when they saw Claus's attitude, almost everyone realized who it was—it was Jared from the Johnston family.
‘Wait a second! He didn't come alone"
Many people looked at the shadow next to the man, their eyes widening as they tried to take a closer look a t her, wondering which woman had such an honor of accompanying Jared.
Everyone knew Jared was notorious for his sexual abstinence.They could not believe that Jared would bring a female companion.
Jared and the woman walked in slowly, and their faces finally appeared in front of everyone.
People were full of surprise.
Jared was undeniably the best-looking man in San Joto, and he always attracted attention wherever he went.
But this time, people's attention was subconsciously distracted by the girl standing next to him.
As handsome as Jared was, he did not steal the slightest limelight from the girl next to him.She was beautiful.
Her eyes were slightly upturned, her demeanor cold, and she looked like a beautiful hibiscus with the coldness of a purple iris.
The black Victorian dress did not look out of place on her.
She seemed to be a princess from that era, with innate dignity, who came to this world.
Chapter 514
Everyone found themselves tongue-tied for a good while.
They could only look at the two and listen to the surprise welling up in their throats.
Both Snow and Chloe's attention were instantly attracted by two.
As they looked at the girl beside Jared, the raging flames of jealousy rose in their eyes.
'Why can't this Nicole just go away!' Nachelle Holder smiled graciously at Jared, and when she turned her eyes to his side, she was stunned.
‘This is.."
Stunned alongside her was Harvey.He looked on at the young lady beside Jared.
Deep yet difficult -to- put -to-words emotions welled within his eyes.
‘Such a beautiful woman should be mine"
He had never felt that Jared was so unsightly, so unsightly that he could not bear it any longer.
Harvey immediately walked over and Snow, who was staring at his back, yelled angrily at him.
"Harvey, where are you going?"
Harvey ignored her, his eyes seemingly being shrouded by a layer of black fog, and his entire person became extremely morose.
‘She is mine, and I'm going to take her back to my side"
Yet, the moment he moved, there was someone who moved much faster than he did.
Lloyd's pupils contracted violently the moment he saw the person come in.
He had been tracing her face on many of his sleepless nights.
He would never fail to recognize that face! This was his sin and his love, his salvation when he was in a dire situation.
Everyone saw that the man, who was so inhumanly indifferent, was walking anxiously toward Jared's side.
He looked at the girl with a look of serious reverence, his voice mixed with a sigh-like tone.
"I finally found you."
"Doctor."
Harvey was about ten meters behind the person, and when he saw Lloyd kneeling down before Nicole, he was stunned.
“What, what is going on here?"
Lloyd, at this very moment, made a very passionate invitation to Nicole.
"You've finally deigned to appear.Please come back to my side, my partner."
Everyone was shocked by this sudden turn of events.They had never expected the heir to the Holder family would say such a thing to a girl on such an occasion.
This was almost akin to a grand declaration of love.
Chloe looked at this scene before her and felt that her action in pulling Lloyd made her look like a clown earlier.It was both hilarious and ironic.
To think that she had told Alberto earlier that Lloyd was here for her was now a total joke.
She slowly put her hand down, and her nails bit deep into her palm, yet she was unaware of the pain.
It's that Nicole again! Harvey instantly stopped as the look in his eyes could not suppress the swirling emotions in it.
Was he supposed to be glad, or was he supposed to be surprised? He knew that Lloyd was looking for someone, but he did not know that the person Lloyd was looking for was Nicole! Claus looked at Lloyd and raised his eyebrows in surprise.
‘Wow, this Holder kid actually dared to do this before my boss.This is way overboard"
Looking at these deep affectionate eyes and the scorching hot words, if he was Nicole, he would have been moved.
Chapter 515
Claus subconsciously turned around to look at Jared's expression.
If there was a need, he would straight away kill this man, who had clearly crossed the line under his boss' instruction.
Yet, he only saw that Jared was slowly pulling Nicole's hand's up.His handsome face was layered with frost.
The moment he turned to Nicole, however, it disappeared.He smiled as he turned Nicole toward him and asked gently.
"Are you going with him?"
Nicole looked at Jared's extremely immaculate face in a daze.
The stray hairs on his forehead were combed back, revealing his full forehead.
His eyes were rolling with imperceptible emotions as if something was raging inside, much akin to the coming of a storm.
The place was so quiet that one could hear the sound of a falling pin.
‘What is this?’
'The young masters of both the Johnston and the Holder family are competing for a woman?’
'And the young master of the Ellison family wants to interfere as well?'
Many women looked enviously at Nicole, wishing that they could be in her place instead.
Many interest groups looked at the scene, thinking about how to extract a bigger benefit out of this.
Nicole ignored them as she held Jared's hand holding her face, and then she turned toward Lloyd, who was down on one knee before her.
Everyone heard her calm voice, and it was so clear even in this hall that it had gone from being silent to cacophonous.
"I was never yours, Lloyd."
"So, where did this talk of me coming back to you come from?"
After hearing Nicole's rather direct words, everyone's eyes widened in surprise.
The young master of the Holder family was rejected just like that! Many of the ladies were cursing Nicole's ignorance, but even some men muttered secretly to themselves.
"Regardless of anything else, no matter how powerful the Johnston family is, Jared's position as heir of the family is still not assured, while Lloyd had just been personally named as heir by Nachelle Holder earlier, and his position was secured, so normally one would choose Lloyd instead, right?’
Thinking of this, they looked at Nicole in contempt.
‘This woman is really not smart enough.'
Harvey looked at the scene before him, and he watched as Lloyd slowly got up without any change to his expression.
An inexplicable glint appeared in his eyes.He wanted to know how Lloyd would react in this situation.
Lloyd's eyes never left Nicole for even a single moment.
He seemingly did not mind being rejected as he just gently let out a smile.
In an instant, a veil of light seemingly fell upon hima s if the clouds had roiled and parted, revealing a bright radiance.
"It's alright." He said gently, "I will wait, I will wait for you to return to me, and before that..."
Lloyd's eyes finally moved away from Nicole as he looked at Jared, whose mood was nigh indistinguishable, as the smile on his face slowly faded away.
"So, you must promise me that you will not be at his side."
When Jared heard him call Nicole that, there was a fluctuation in his emotions.He looked on thoughtfully at Lloyd.
The latter was very calm, seemingly very proud because he shared a secret with Nicole.
The smile on his face widened, so attractive it was difficult to avert one's gaze.
‘No wonder this woman chose Mr.Johnston"
Everyone looked at this beautiful man and could not help but hold their breaths.
Jared's face was really a killer.
Jared did not seem to care what the others were thinking.He looked at Lloyd before him; his voice suddenly turned icy, like a blade ripping into the latter's flesh, causing a storm of blood to form.
"Speaking of which, it seems like you don't know her name at all."
