Ch. 706..710: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 706-710

Chapter 706

“Yes. Do learn well.” Nicole gave him an angry stare. She then turned back to teach them some moves.

“Training is over. You guys can now practice on your own. If you can perform these moves properly, both of you can spar. Do memorize them well.”

“Alright!” Zeke and Austin nodded their head. They were no longer at daggers drawn. They started to practice those moves Nicole taught them.

Nicole then went back to her class satisfyingly.

The lessons taught in the class were easy for Nicole. Teachers no longer kept a close eye on Nicole after they knew she was a genius. She could do whatever questions she wanted.

After two classes, Ms. Emerson mentioned the school anniversary celebration arrangement on the stage. “This year is Royal Creek Institute’s centennial. We’ll celebrate it with plays. We’ll also invite some special guests to watch the shows. The play’s theme of our class is set. We need two lead actors, two primary supporting actors, and eight secondary supporting actors.”

Everyone was excited about the school anniversary celebration. But Vivian was the first student to raise her hand as her eyes brightened. “Ms. Emerson, I want to become the lead actress.”

Ms. Emerson did not expect Vivian to be so straightforward. She then looked at Vivian up and down. She said awkwardly, “Vivian, you might be more suitable to play the supporting roles with your height. You’re not suitable to be the lead actress for this play.

Vivian’s face instantly turned pale when Ms. Emerson rejected her request directly. ‘I was always the first one to request to be the lead actress whenever there were plays. And I’ll always get it. I heard some directors were among the special guests this time. I was told that the Best Male Actor, Lloyd Holder,

would come too. He might also want to find a lead actress for the new drama, Lukewarm. I can’t believe Ms. Emerson to turn down.’

Vivian asked, “Who will be the lead actress then?”

Ms. Emerson did not select Nicole directly after she heard that. However, she could not help but glance at Nicole.

Nicole, on the other hand, looked like she did not care what was going on. It seemed like she did not want to participate in the play.

Ms. Emerson sighed, “I’ll nominate a few students. After that, you guys will cast your votes.” She thought, ‘People are discerning. They’ll know who’s the most suitable one to become the lead actress.’

Vivian was frustrated suddenly. But the poll would decide the lead actress, so she could not argue with Ms. Emerson.

Ms. Emerson then turned around and wrote two female students’ names for the lead actress role. One of them was Nicole.

While the nominees for lead actor were Gary and Jack. Jack did not expect he would be comparable with Gary. He was secretly rejoicing. He even could not help imagining the scene where he and Nicole were the lead actor and actress.

Suddenly, Gary kicked Jack’s chair. Jack’s hand that was supporting his chin slipped. Gary gave him a scare.

“G-Gary…” “What were you fantasying about?” Gary obviously noticed Jack’s anthomaniac. His eyes were filled with unhappiness. “I-I didn’t. I did not mean it. I’m hardly comparable to you.” Jack lost his nerve immediately. Gary snorted coldly. “At least you’re self-aware.”

“Ah… Of course.” Jack nodded his head.

Gary then said coldly, “Then, you know who to vote for later, right?” Jack froze suddenly. He could not help but sigh in his heart. ‘Looks like I’m no match for Gary

And sure enough, Nicole and Gary won after two rounds of voting.

After all, the other female nominee was unexciting. Her look was not comparable to Nicole’s either.

Lulu was chosen to be the supporting actress. While June was selected to play the role of the female lead’s best friend after she raised her hand to volunteer for it.

After seeing what happened, Wayne and Jack could hardly wait to raise their hand to grab roles. Finally, the two of them got the family servant and butler role together along with Bradley.

Chapter 707

Vivian stared at the results on the blackboard. ‘Ms. Emerson did this intentionally! ‘Other than Nicole, those that were chosen were good friends of hers in the class!’ What made Vivian the angriest was that Gary was voted as the lead actor! Vivian was jealous and brokenhearted at the thought of Nicole starring alongside Gary. ‘This was a golden opportunity. But Nicole took it away from me!’ Vivian was furious! 1 Ms. Emerson left without allowing Vivian to object.

Nicole was utterly surprised too. It was obvious that Ms. Emerson planned that. It seemed like she was afraid that Nicole would turn down the lead actress role. That was why Ms. Emerson made the class vote. Nicole was popular recently. Naturally, everyone would vote for her to impress her.

Nicole did not even want to participate in this pointless thing. But Ms. Emerson left right after announcing the results. It was obvious that Ms. Emerson was afraid that Nicole would reject the role.

Nicole sighed. She knew she could only talk to Ms. Emerson about it after school. Vivian walked toward her just as she thought about that. “Nicole, I want you to find Ms. Emerson to quit the lead actress role.”

Nicole was furious suddenly. She raised her head as she looked at Vivian’s justly face.

“Why should I?”

Nicole did not want the role initially. But after hearing what Vivian said, she did not want to quit anymore.

“Why? Because you’re from the countryside. You don’t even understand a single thing about the play. You’re not good enough for Gary too!”

There was a dead silence suddenly.

Gary’s eyes were filled with coldness as he looked at Vivian.

Nicole thought for a bit. “Oh, no wonder you were always against me these days. And you wanted to take the lead actress role so badly. It was all for Gary?” she smiled.

She then intentionally glanced at Gary. He looked embarrassed suddenly.

“Nicole, what nonsense are you talking about?” Gary did not want to be dragged into her fight with Vivian.

“Nonsense? Look at her expression.” Nicole smiled playfully. She knew exactly what was going on in Vivian’s mind.

Vivian’s face turned red suddenly as she glanced at Gary. She then said shyly, “Enough crap, Nicole. Just tell me whether or not you’ll give up the lead actress role!” Nicole stared at Vivian as she laughed like a flower suddenly. “Initially, I didn’t want to participate in this play. I was going to find Ms. Emerson after school to tell her about it. But I didn’t like your attitude. So… I decided not to quit.”

“What?” Vivian froze suddenly. She did not expect her action made Nicole change her decision. She was furious suddenly. “Stop acting nice! I don’t believe you wouldn’t want to play such a good character!”

“It’s just a play. It’s just to play the gallery to seek the special guests’ attention. Do I look like I lack attention?” Nicole raised her eyebrows as she asked the rhetorical question. It was completely silent suddenly. Indeed, Nicole did not need to fight for the role like everyone else.

Mr. Ellison and Mr. Wyance are the two biggest shots. She did not need to fight over the acting role.

Vivian was fuming suddenly. She knew she could not win the argument against Nicole. She could only stomp as she said, “Nicole, don’t flatter yourself! W-We’ll see!” ‘I’ll not lose to her!’ Nicole nodded her head as she smiled coldly. “Anytime.”

Vivian could not help but stomp as she left.

Gary felt an unexplainable excitement as she looked at Nicole’s face when she was provoking Vivian. ‘Does this mean Nicole wants to star alongside me in the play?’

Chapter 708

Gary felt inexplicably happy as he thought about that.

He could not help but look forward to the rehearsal.

After school–

Ms. Emerson told the participants about the rehearsal time. She then informed them to go to the rehearsal.

Gary saw Nicole pack her stuff to leave. He then did the same and chased after her.

Nicole did not look at Gary even though she knew that Gary was following her.

Gary was perturbed. He said softly, “Is this really your first time acting in a play?”

“Yes,” Nicole said coldly. “If you have anything that you don’t understand, feel free to ask me.” Gary smiled brightly. Nicole glanced at him as she said unhappily, “Gary, do you always feel superior whenever you do something? Do you always think that others need your help?” ‘This dude, he always says he wants to help me whenever he sees me. But I don’t need help from a weakling.’

“No, I don’t.” Gary curdled his eyebrows. He did not expect that Nicole would think of him this way.

‘She wasn’t wrong. I can only blame myself for being so self-righteous last time. I thought Nicole didn’t know anything about Mathematical Olympiad. Now that I know she’s a genius, I feel so stupid.’ Gary sighed as he said in a serious tone, “I didn’t understand you last time. I was wrong about you. This won’t happen again. You could ignore me if I said something that made you feel uncomfortable.”

He then walked ahead of Nicole right after he said that. Disappointment could be seen on his back.

Nicole frowned her eyebrows as she stared at Gary. ‘He’s weird. What happened to the aloof dandy?’ Soon, the students reached the shared rehearsal hall. They only realized that they were not alone in the rehearsal hall after they reached. Classes from the high school and university departments were there for rehearsal too.

Nicole looked toward there. She saw Samuel and Spencer. It seemed like they were both the lead actors for their respective classes. They stood at the center. While Stanley was standing in the middle of the crowd. It seemed like he was waiting for everyone to reach for the meeting.

“Gary!” A sweet voice could be heard, causing everyone’s attention.

Raine was there too. She stood beside Gary immediately after she saw him.

But Gary was not in a good mood. He did not want to talk to her. He then went and stood at the

center of his class. People were standing on both of his sides. Raine could not stand beside him. Raine noticed Nicole was standing next to Gary. “Why is she here?” She was anxious. ‘Does this bumpkin even know anything about play? And she actually came along for the ride?!

As a secondary supporting actress, Lulu stepped forward frustratingly as she said, “Nicole’s our lead actress!”

“What?” Raine opened her eyes wide suddenly. She felt aggrieved as she looked at Gary. “Gary, a-are you the lead actor?”. Wayne glanced at Raine as he said coldly, “Of course Gary is our lead actor. If not, who else could do it?”

Raine had a long face.

She did not expect Nicole to get the lead actress role and starred alongside Gary as the main character. She was fuming at the thought of them rehearsing and acting as a couple in the play. Jack kicked Raine

when she was down. “Raine, Gary’s very upset recently. He doesn’t have time for you. Please be self- conscious. Step aside, alright?”

Jack was straightforward. Gary did not have time for Raine.

Chapter 709

If it was back then, Gary would have definitely scolded Jack. But today, he actually did not even deign to look at her. Everyone could not help but gossip among themselves. ‘Back then, Raine had always said that both she and Gary were a couple, yet Gary had never said anything about it. By the looks of things, could it be that it was Raine who was just flattering herself?’

Sensing the gaze of everyone around her, Raine let out a wronged look. “Gary, do you really hate me that much?”

Gary could not help but glance at Raine, and as he saw her dolled-up face that was full of crocodile tears, he felt disgusted and spat. “Yes.”

Raine was completed stunned. She had not expected Gary to speak to her like this, without care of the Riddle family’s standing.

Instantly, she felt so humiliated she could only stomp her feet as she turned and ran out. “Eh! Raine!” Someone from her class chased after her.

Stanley saw the commotion and immediately maintained order. “The reason I called all of you here today is to arrange the timetable for the rehearsal hall. Have all classes arrived yet?” “Class A of eleventh grade is not here yet!” Someone reported.

Stanley nodded, and sure enough, he did not see Norah’s class, nor did he spot Snow’s class either.

Just as he was about to ask what was going on, someone suddenly came through the door. “Shit! The girls from Class A of the freshman year and eleventh grade are fighting!” “What?” Stanley’s expression turned sullen the moment he heard that. “I’ll go have a look!” Samuel and Spencer were afraid that their big brother could not control the scene, so they followed behind.

Everyone else looked at one another before following suit to watch the drama unfold.

“Someone from the university division is fighting the high-school division? Nicole, let’s go have a look!” Before Nicole could even react, Lulu and June had dragged her by the arms out.

Just as they walked out of the rehearsal hall, they heard the howling coming from the outer hall.

“Snow… you, are you sure you are hitting the right person?!”

“The person I want to hit is you! You diamond-stealing thief! You’ve been absent from school for a few days now, and I finally got my hand on you!” Snow’s shrill voice thundered, surprising everyone. “Is this the school beauty that everyone had admired?”

After seemingly losing her status, Snow no longer gave any hoots about her image. Ever since Nicole told her the truth, she had been waiting for Norah to return to school, but as she had been busy settling into her new life for the past two days, so she only returned to school today. Now that she had an avenue to unleash her pent-up wrath, how could she forgive

Norah?

“I did not! I did not steal the diamond!” As Norah cried and pleaded as Snow hurled abuse at her.

Yet it was useless. Her cousin was a few years older than her and was a little stronger. A few slaps were all it took for her cheeks to be flushed red.

“You didn’t? I’ve purposely retrieved the security footage from the manor and also asked the servants, and here you are still trying to lie your way out of things?” Snow snarled inwardly, ‘Both Raine and I had been toyed around by this b*tch all this while. She even used me as a tool, and today I’ll have my revenge!’

“No!!” Norah struggled, and when she saw Samuel and Spencer among the crowd of people, she rushed behind the two. “Samuel, Spencer, help me! Cousin Snow wants to beat me to death!”

Snow was taken aback for a moment when she saw Samuel and Spencer, yet the flames of fury in her heart burned bright. “Who’s your cousin? You’re nothing but a mutt that the Riddle family had picked up by mistake! Now that you’re out of the family, what right do you have to call my cousin?!” Everyone was stunned the moment she said that. When Norah told them that Nicole was her little sister that came back from the countryside, they had thought that they were blood-related sisters!

Only now did they learn that Norah was a fake daughter of the Riddle family!

 

Chapter 710

‘So, Nicole was brought back from the countryside because… she is the true daughter of the Riddle family!’ Everyone looked at Norah with disgust as they recalled her calling herself a daughter of the Riddle family. It turned out that she was just a fake! Norah had wanted to hide this matter until her graduation and did not expect Snow to let the cat out of the bag here and now! Norah gritted her teeth resentfully, wishing she could rip Snow’s mouth apart! Yet, at this moment, the crowd was on her side, so Norah could only seek help as she pitifully looked at Samuel and Spencer. “Samuel, Spencer.l. help me, please.”

Samuel hesitated somewhat, but Spencer had already recomposed himself as he said with a serious look on his face, “Norah, was it you who stole the pink diamond that Snow lost?” They had heard everything when they arrived. Snow struck Norah because the latter stole the pink diamond.

Norah had framed it on Nicole, causing everyone to think that it was Nicole who stole it. Yet, when they questioned her back then, Norah refused to admit it.

“I…” Norah still wanted to find an excuse.

However, Stanley then walked out of the crowd. “Snow said she had already pulled the footage from the manor’s surveillance camera. If you are lying, we can find out one way or another.” At this very moment, Norah’s back was against the wall, so she could only pinch herself and say sheepishly, “I… I just saw it being pretty, so I took it to have a look…” The three brothers all showed a look of disappointment. They never thought that Norah, who had been a good, obedient girl all this while, had really stolen something! Spencer pulled Samuel away and said, “You need to bear the consequences of your own actions.

“Samuel… Spencer…” Norah totally did not expect them to be so ruthless. Stanley then said with an icy look on his face, “Norah, you have already met your birth parents and left the Riddle family. We are no longer your brothers.”

When he said that, everyone was shocked.

‘So Norah had actually moved out of the Riddle family and have also met her birth parents.’

So, she had the Riddle brothers no longer have any relationship any longer. 1

Now those people who once envied Norah looked at her with contempt, as if she was just nothing but a liar.

Norah had never expected to find herself in a situation after leaving for a few days. Feeling so aggrieved, she glared at Nicole.

“Fine, fine… You guys just toss me aside after having her back, huh? I was the one living for over ten odd years with you guys, and you guys treat me like this?! Since you guys no longer acknowledge me as your sister, I do want brothers like you either!” 1

As she said that, Norah tearfully turned around and left.

Samuel felt sorry for her and subconsciously wanted to chase after her. Yet, he was stopped by Spencer. “Although the reality is cruel, she needs to get used to it sooner or later. Don’t give her false hope anymore.”

Samuel was at a loss of words for a good while. He also knew that he should not give Norah any more hope, so he stopped.

Seeing Norah leaving just like that, Snow was still not satisfied. “Where do you think you’re going!”

“Snow, enough!” Suddenly, someone spoke out from the crowd, and when Snow heard the voice, her body froze.

“This is a school, not a wet market.” His cold voice had an admonishing tone to it, and that caused a chill to run down Snow’s spine.

As she turned and saw Harvey’s face, she immediately lowered her head. “Harvey… why are you here?”

Harvey glanced coldly at her. “Why? You’re afraid that I would see you doing something stupid?” Harvey thought, ‘What Snow has done the past few days is so stupid. She’s getting more and more unsightly.’
