Ch. 721..725: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 721-725

Chapter 721

He wanted to give the best to Nicole.

Nicole instantly blushed upon hearing his proposal. “Let’s just keep things low-key.” She was used to keeping a low profile on everything, and she was still unaccustomed to it.

“You’re my fiancée, and I will certainly give you the best.” Jared smiled and had already decided.

Claus saw the opportunity. “Let me handle it, Mr. Johnston.”

He enjoyed organizing these things the most. “I promise it will be better and more fun than what a dumbo like Max could come up with.”

Jared’s face darkened, and Claus shut his mouth at once. But after a long while, Jared still agreed. “Go and don’t make mistakes.”

“I guarantee I will get the job done.” Claus smiled and continued to drive.

Nicole did not expect Jared to proceed with things just like that. She felt awkward and did not know what to say, thinking the engagement was too sudden.

As they arrived at the school, Jared took her back to his café for a cup of coffee.

Nicole had a look of satisfaction on her face while drinking the coffee handmade by Jared.

Looking around the café, Nicole suddenly asked, “Why do you want to open a café infront of the school?”

Jared’s hand paused, and he looked up at her. “Because there were signals of Lucifer here.”

Nicole’s face darkened as she finally understood something. It turned out that Jared opened the café here for her at first.

“Has my signal ever appeared here?” Nicole thought for a moment and suddenly recalled the phishing program. Her face sank. “The one who used the phishing program to catch me out was you.”

She and Jared had previously revealed their respective identities, and she also knew that Jared had put her on his wanted list, but she did not know at the time that Jared had used the phishing program to catch her.

“Of course, I wrote the program myself.” Jared let out an evilly triumphant smile.

“You wrote that program?” Nicole was surprised.

That she had nearly fallen into the trap of the program showed how capable the person who wrote the program was. Just that she did not expect that it was Jared who created the program. ‘Doesn’t this mean Jared’s hacking skills are as good as mine?’

“Yeah. Surprised?” He raised an eyebrow.

“Of course. If that program is really your creation, it will fetch a high price on The Hunters.” Nicole had a serious look on her face.

Jared smiled. “I’m not short of money. I wrote that program just to catch you.”

His expression looked explicit and fervent.

His stare flustered Nicole, and she rolled her eyes at him. “You have been getting better at teasing me lately, eh?”

Jared smiled. “You’ve been getting better at complimenting me lately, too.”

Nicole’s expression froze, looking a little bashful. “Who wants to compliment you?”

Jared did not expose her, and the two of them laughed and drank their coffee.

Just then, the café’s door opened, and several Royal Creek Institute students poured in.

Gary, the leading guy, saw Jared and Nicole and was stunned. Nicole and Jared also saw him. Jared’s face darkened, and he did not intend to talk to him. Smiles faded from Gary’s face as if he did not expect to meet them here.

Jack and Wayne also saw Nicole, but they met Jared for the first time. They involuntarily glance at Gary and immediately spot Gary’s abnormal demeanor.

Chapter 722

Gary and Nicole had been rehearsing together for the past few days, and he could not be happier. With Gary’s rejection of Raine, even fools could tell that he had feelings for Nicole. So no one expected to see Nicole sitting with a handsome man.

Gary’s face could not look sullener, but he said nothing but sat down with Jack, Wayne, and the others at an adjacent table and ordered coffee.

Jared had sensed Gary’s abnormality as soon as Gary came in. He glanced at Nicole and said, “He’s looking at you.”

Nicole ignored it, only giving Jared a faint acknowledgment.

After a few more sips and the coffee bottomed out, Nicole said, “It’s almost time. I should go back.”

“I’ll walk you to the school gate,” Jared thoughtfully said.

Nicole smiled. The two got up and left.

As they walked past Gary, Nicole did not even look at or say hello to him but walked straight out.

“Boss, did Nicole just ignore you?” Wayne was in disbelief. ‘The two of them have gotten to know each other better because of the drama rehearsal, but Nicole has just ignored Gary in front of that man? That man seems to be very special to her.’

“Don’t bother with her.” Gary was angry, but he did not want to get upset just because of Nicole.

But he could not help but feel depressed as he watched Nicole get into the car. By the time he pulled back his gaze, he had lost his appetite for the coffee. He left after sitting there for just a while. Tonight,

Gary could not sleep well, as his mind was full of Nicole.

The next day in class, he kept staring at Nicole, and Nicole kept ignoring him.

Finally, it was time for the afternoon rehearsals.

Gary could not bear it anymore. While on the way to the rehearsal, he stopped Nicole. “What is the relationship between you and the man of last night?”

Nicole looked at Gary with a frown, puzzled by his action.

“Does it have anything to do with you?” She looked not too happy, thinking that Gary was too nosy.

“Of course, I-I…” Gary almost slipped up and revealed his feelings for her.

Nicole pushed him away and said, “That person will soon become my fiancé. Think what you want.” With that, she left

Gary watched in surprise as Nicole left. ‘Fiancé? Is she going to get engaged to that man?’

His heart hollowed out at the thought of this. It was then that he realized he had cared so much about Nicole because he had fallen for her. But his realization had come too late.

Gary leaned feebly against the wall, feeling decadent.

Unbeknownst to him, Raine had taken all in from a dark corner.

‘Damn it, Nicole. I can’t believe that Gary dumped me all because of you. When did she hook up with Gary that it made him so obsessed with her? What a slut.’

This new revelation caused her to lose her mind, amplifying her hatred toward Nicole. ‘I will make Nicole pay the price today, no matter what.’

 

Chapter 724

Gary did not bother to talk to her, his face stony as he looked at the girl as if looking at a dead person.

“Whoever you are, I advise you not to pick a fight with Nicole again.” Instead of the usual playful look in his eyes, he carried a kind of ruthless indifference. “Otherwise, I’ll make you regret coming into this world. ” Gary’s eyes had never been so frightening.

The girl looked at him, trembling in fright. She scrambled to her feet and ran out like a bat out of hell. She could no longer care what Raine had told her.

Raine was stunned at seeing what happened, not expecting that Gary was still so protective of Nicole, despite Nicole having rejected him. “Why are you so protective of her, Gary?” She could no longer bear it and pointed at Nicole. “She has just rejected you, hasn’t she?”

Everyone was dumbfounded, and Jack and Wayne could not help but glance at each other.

‘No wonder Nicole looked so grave at the mention of Gary. It turned out that Gary had just confessed to Nicole. This is a big deal. Gary had never liked a girl in all these years at school, yet Nicole rejected him.’

Gary no longer cared about his ego. He looked at Raine with a frosty face. “That’s my business, and it has nothing to do with you. Don’t pick a fight with Nicole again; don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

He was now conscious of his feelings for Nicole and would not allow her to be bullied.

“You!” Raine’s face flushed with anger, and she glared at Nicole with resentment. “You’re super, Nicole.”

With that, she stomped her foot and turned away.

Jack looked at Nicole involuntarily, thinking that she would be grateful to Gary, not expecting that she would look even frostier than before. ‘A Nicole like this looks even scarier.’

Nicole did not see Jack’s frightened expression. She just came out from behind Gary and said, “I don’t need you to protect me at all.”

Nicole had always been indifferent, just like her words.

Gary bit his lip involuntarily, the detached look on his face fading, replaced by a warm and gentle expression. “You said that I might think what I wanted, I want to protect you, and you can’t stop me from doing so.”

People around them were all stupefied. None of them could foresee that Gary could go so crazy for a girl.

Both Jack and Wayne shrank from the sight of his action, thinking that Gary was too manly.

Nicole had a headache, as she did not know why Gary was pigheaded.

Seeing that the time was passing quickly, she interrupted by saying, “We have wasted too much time on this. Let’s rehearse.”

Only then did everyone come to their senses and go back to rehearsing.

Gary kept looking at Nicole with a feeling of emptiness inside him. ‘I just want to protect her. Why did she hate me so much? Is it really because of that man?’

It came to the anniversary of the Royal Creek Institute in the blink of an eye.

The coming of Lloyd and the directorial team to hold an audition for Lukewarm had already gone viral for a long time.

Today, someone spotted Lloyd’s director team at the Royal Creek Institute for the school anniversary celebration. Many people speculated maybe he came here to select the heroine.

By this time, Lloyd had arrived at the lounge prepared for him by the Royal Creek Institute, waiting for the celebration to begin.

Not long after, Anna knocked on the lounge door.

Chapter 725

“Come in,” he whispered.

The door was quickly opened, and Lloyd’s face appeared in front of Anna. He had not much expression on his face, yet he was graceful. Even though he was just standing there casually, there was a kind of extraordinary charm in him.

He looked at Anna with a faint sense of expectation in his eyes, but it was wrapped in a layer of unexplained emotions as if he was deliberately restraining himself. He lowered his voice and asked, “Did she attend the show?”

The reason he came was to see someone, but he was afraid of disturbing her, so he could only watch from a distance.

Anna looked at the tall and charming man with a helpless expression on her beautiful face. “Are you not inviting me to sit down and talk?”

Lloyd said nothing. His eyelashes fluttered gently, with his eyes shimmering as he looked at Anna and said slowly, “Please take a seat.”

Anna sat down and sighed before saying, “As you wish, she’s on the show.”

Lloyd’s eyes lit up.

“Really?”

‘I thought she wouldn’t take part, judging by her dispassionate personality. If that is the case, the crew

team wouldn’t be able to select her, and my dream of acting with her would not come true. Fortunately, she is taking part.’ Thinking of this, an otherworldly smile crept across his face with an almost inaudible excitement in his voice. “I really didn’t expect that she would take part. I still have a chance.”

Anna stared at Lloyd. She had not seen him smile like that in years. It was apparent to her that Lloyd really cared about the girl.

“Don’t worry. If she really has the talent, I will recommend her, too.”

He looked at Anna with a growing smile on his face and sincerely thanked her.

Anna nodded. “You’re welcome. I will leave you to it, and be prepared, as you may also have to speak on stage as a delegate today.”

“Sure” Lloyd agreed.

Anna gently closed the door with a hint of satisfaction on her beautiful face. As long as Lloyd cooperated with her well, she would have no problem helping him find a suitable heroine.

Inside the room, Lloyd was looking forward to meeting Nicole. He wondered how her preparation was.

Meanwhile, backstage, everyone had gotten ready. There was a waiting area for each class, with Class A and Class B next to each other,

Norah and Nicole became the focus of both classes, and people were talking about them in private.

“That girl from Class B is the biological daughter of the Riddle family.”

“Truth shall prevail. Just look at how pretty Nicole is; the same goes for her brothers–they’re so handsome”

“Yeah, Norah is pretty ordinary Before this, I wondered how she had such good-looking brothers. It turned out that she was not a biological child of the Riddles.”

They spoke louder and louder Getting pissed, Norah glared over at them, and they all immediately shut

After all, she was the leader of Class A. Norah chided them, saying, “Do you all have nothing better to do? Go get the props.”

Those girls knew she was using her position to take revenge for personal grudges, but they did not dare to say anything. They had no choice but to go get the props. Norah was irritable. She could not help but glance at Nicole in the Class B area. Bradley, June, and the others were all around Nicole, so she did not have to do anything.

While Nicole’s male partner was the handsome Gary, hers, after doing so much to get the female lead role, was a guy with a face only a mother could love.

“Norah, there is something on your head.” Her male partner did not know what she thought. He reached out to help Norah remove the debris on her head, but Norah was bent out of shape and smacked his hand away.

“Get out of my sight.” Norah glared at him in disgust.
