Ch. 811..815: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 811-815

Chapter 811

Jared smiled dotingly as he came to Nicole's side and hugged her.

"No way, no one is more important than you."

"Is that so? I'll forgive you this time."

"Mr.Jared, I've completed Miss Nicole's discharge procedures."

Max walked over to report.

"Good."

"Let's go, Miss Nicole."

Jared quipped playfully.

Nicole sniggered.

"So, Mr.Jared, shall we go walk together then?"

The two held hands as they walked out of the ward.

Just as they were going through the hall, an emergency stretcher was quickly pushed in Nicole's direction.

Fortunately, Nicole was agile and easily dodged the oncoming collision.

"Who's that? How can you be so reckless!" Jared hissed in anger.

He then asked Nicole, "Are you hurt?"

"No, it seems like an emergency case.Otherwise, they wouldn't be in such a hurry."

Nicole glanced toward the ER.She only saw a commotion over there, and that puzzled her.

"Why is there someone arguing at the ER? I'll go over to have a look."

Nicole was a kind person and could not stand to watch good people being bullied.

"You've only just recovered.You don't have to stand up for others."

Jared tried to stop her.

"It's fine.Just wait for me in the car.I'll come over in a bit."

As she said that, she ignored Jared's disapproval and went straight to the ER.

In the ER, due to her not being able to contact the patient's family, Joyce only performed simple first aid and did not plan to take the patient in for further treatment.

As a result, she was scolded by the people around her.

"How can you be like that? Where's your empathy and ethics?"

"Yeah, how can you not treat him just because he can't pay?! This is too much!"

"Stop making a commotion here.This is the emergency department.If you raise any more ruckus, I'll be calling security!"

Joyce ignored the crowd's protest as she adamantly refused to accept the patient.

"Make way, please.Let me have a look."

Nicole yelled.

The crowd made way, and Nicole walked to the patient's side.

"Nicole, what are you doing? This is a hospital, not a place for you to fool around."

Joyce was pissed off when she saw Nicole.

It was all because of her that Joyce was demoted to the emergency department and could no longer spend time every day with Martin.

Nicole ignored her as she straightaway went to treat the patient.

In her eyes, nothing was more important than the patient's life.

"His condition is serious; he needs urgent surgery." Nicole looked at Joyce.

Joyce swallowed her saliva as she glared hostilely at Nicole.

A doctor behind her walked up and whispered.

"Dr.Joyce, how about we perform the surgery first? Otherwise, who'll be responsible if anything bad happens?"

"We cannot reach this person's family.If he is unable to pay for the surgery later, who's going to foot the bill then?"

"Joyce McCarthy, is human life more important or is money more important now? If this person dies in the ER, you won't escape a lawsuit." Nicole reminded her.

"Even then..."

"Enough! Get him into the operating theater! I'll pay for his operation!"

Nicole could not be bothered to argue with her.

Every minute wasted was a minute lost in saving him.The other doctors realized the severity of the case.

After glancing at Joyce, they pushed the patient into the operating room.

"But who's going to be the chief surgeon?"

A nurse looked at both Nicole and Joyce.

"I’ll do it.Lead the way."

Nicole's presence was so great that the nurse dared not disobey her.

As she looked at Nicole's departing figure, Joyce angrily threw her notebook onto the ground.

"Nicole, you've shown off in front of me one too many times and humiliated me to no end.You've made an enemy of me!"

Chapter 812

"What are you lot looking at? Move along."

Only then did the onlookers disperse while still admonishing her.After disinfecting herself and putting on the operating gown, Nicole walked into the operating room and approached the patient.

"What's the patient's condition?"

"He's still in shock even after putting on the respirator." Nicole then carefully checked through everything again.

"It's probably a cardiogenic shock."

"Prepare for cardiopulmonary resuscitation and hook him up on IV."

"Get a matching blood type pack, prepare plasma."

"Roger."

"Prepare for surgery."

Nicole's determined gaze swept across everyone in the room.

After several hours of intense surgery, the light outside the operating room finally turned off.

Nicole slowly walked out of it after the patient was pushed out of the operating room.When Jared saw her, he immediately walked over and helped her to sit.

"You must be exhausted.Have a sip."

"I'm fine.If it weren't for me just being discharged, these few hours would've been nothing."

"You...Most people would've just dodged it, and yet you stepped forward yourself." Jared looked at her, slightly pained.

"But didn't it work out fine?" Nicole was very proud that she had managed to save a life.

"Yes, but have you thought of the consequences? If you had failed, that's a life lost." Jared was sweating profusely for her outside the operating room.

"I dared to take on the surgery because I have total confidence in it."

Nicole's confident look was extremely attractive.Jared dotingly pinched her nose.

"Fine, you're awesome.Happy?"

"Max, bring the car over."

"Yes, Boss."

When Martin returned to the hospital, he heard about Nicole's feat in the emergency department.

"Nicole, are you alright?"

Martin ran over and saw Jared helping her outside.

"I'm fine. Why are you here?"

Nicole looked at Martin with a puzzled look.

"I just heard about you in the hospital, so I rushed over."

"Your timing is impeccable; the patient is suffering from cardiogenic shock.I've already operated on him, but he's still in a critical period.This is a very special illness, and you need to carefully observe him for a

while.You're the best doctor here, and only you have the ability to be the main doctor of this special patient."

"Don't worry, leave it to me.You've just been discharged, so go and get a good rest."

Martin was worried that Nicole standing for long hours would affect the recovery of her leg wound.

"Oh right, Mr.Jared here has paid the patient's bill."

Nicole turned around and let out a pleased smile at Jared.

"Got it."

Martin nodded.

"Mr.Jared, the car is here."

At this moment, Max walked over.

"Let's go."

Jared then left the hospital with Nicole.

Martin looked at Nicole's departing figure and let out a long sigh before returning to the intensive care unit to check on the patient.

"How's the patient doing?" Martin asked the nurse to his side.

"The patient is stable after surgery."

 

Chapter 813

"Good.Continue to observe the patient.Let me know if there's anything."

Martin looked at the patient's condition again as he told the nurse.

"Yes, Dr.Martin."

Martin came out of the ICU to the emergency department and learned about what had happened before taking Joyce to the director's office.

Martin knocked on the door and saw that the director was on the phone.He then brought Joyce into the office as the director ignored them and spoke respectfully to the person on the other end of the phone.

"Yes, yes, for such a thing to happen in my hospital, I sincerely apologize.I will seriously deal with this and give you a satisfying reply." The director put down the phone with a grim look.

"Good timing.I just wanted to look for the two of you."

"Director..."

Just as Martin was about to speak, the director stopped him.

"Joyce McCarthy, explain to me now.What happened in the emergency department today that this call came to my office?!"

"Director, it's like this, a patient was brought into the ER, and I checked on him.I found that he was in a rather serious condition and needed surgery, but we were unable to reach his family.I thought that without his family's signed consent, performing surgery on him was irresponsible.I did not agree to perform the surgery to protect the hospital's reputation."

Joyce was trembling when she explained to the director.This was the first time she saw him lose his temper.

"So you're a stickler to the rules, a responsible doctor, eh?"

"Then why did you perform the surgery on the patient?"

"It was Nicole.She practiced medicine illegally.I did try to stop her, but she insisted on pushing the patient into the operating theater without his family's signed consent..."Joyce immediately latched onto Nicole's action.

"Director, if you want to sue Nicole, I can stand witness."

How Joyce wished she could see Nicole brought to justice.

"And you still have the gall to say that! Because of you, the best opportunity to operate on the patient was almost missed.If it weren't for Nicole ignoring protocol and working miracles, this hospital would have gone to hell with you!"

The director's eyes were red with anger as he smashed a cup onto the floor.

"How could that be, she..."

Joyce could not believe what the director had just said.

"What?! You have no idea who the patient is.His son is a multinational CEO, and it was his son who called me just now."

Only then did Martin realize why the director was speaking in a low voice just now.

"Martin, is this how you trained them?"

"I'm so sorry, director.I never thought that I would've caused such huge trouble for the hospital."

Martin even had to apologize on Joyce's behalf.

"Get out of my sight right now, and never step foot in this hospital ever again."

The director pointed at Joyce's nose as he yelled at her before turning around and no longer looking at them.

Joyce was already being scolded to the point of tears.She dared not even look at Martin as she ran out of the hospital with her head down.

That afternoon, the hospital announced Joyce's dismissal.In the manor, Nicole was biting on an apple as she surfed the web.

Suddenly recalling the weird mission earlier, she gave Zeke a call.

"Eh, Nicole, why do you have time to call me?"

Zeke was quite surprised when he got Nicole's call.

"Have you managed to find who's the person using the ID I asked you to check?" Nicole had no time to trade banter with him and went straight to the point.

"Tsk, I thought you missed me after not being in touch for so long.It turns out you're asking for something else.How disappointing."

Zeke pretended to be unhappy and sighed.

"Cut the nonsense.I'm probably intruding on your fun right now, right?"

"Bloody hell, do you have clairvoyance or something? No, I need to see if you have deployed spies near me."

"No need.You're not worth deploying a spy."

"Hey, those words pissed me off.I'm still someone who is only behind you, alright? I'm a mysterious figure that is beyond reach in the eyes of others, okay?"

"Yeah, right! If you don't tell me the results, you're a dead man."

Nicole was really tired of bantering with this idiot.

"Eh, calm down.I'll send all of the information over right now."

Zeke dared not provoke her.

"Alright, I'll be hanging up first."

Nicole opened her laptop and received the information Zeke sent over.She then carefully went over it.

"So it's the McCarthy family, huh..."

Chapter 814

"Jared, I'm going back home." Nicole called Jared on the phone.

"The driver will drop you off, and I will see you at your place at night."

"It's been a long day for you.Don't come tonight.I will see you at your company another day."

"Okay, then.Take care and have a good rest.If I find out you don't rest enough, I will fix you."

Nicole's heart almost melted at hearing Jared's last sentence.

"Okay, bye-bye."

Hanging up the phone, Nicole went straight back to her home.

"Good to see you back, Nicole."

Gloria was delighted to see Nicole back; she had not seen Nicole in days.

"Mom, what are you busy with?"

"I'm making you some snacks."

"How do you know I'll be back?"

Nicole looked at Gloria in amazement.

"It's Friday today.I figured you would come back this week, so I thought of preparing things in advance so you would get to eat when you came home."

Gloria wanted to make up as much as possible for some of the love Nicole had missed as a child.

"Thank you, Mom.I feel so blessed having snacks to eat as soon as I'm back."

"Here you go.Move over to the couch."

Gloria handed her a portion of the snack.

"Don't make anymore.This is more than enough.Come over.Let's have a chat."

Nicole sat Gloria down on the couch.

"Mom, where is Dad? I haven't seen him since I'm back."

Nicole had been back for a while and still did not see Daniel.

"Upstairs with your eldest brother in the room.They're working on a project."

"You've been getting better lately, Mom."

"Really? I feel much better since you're back, almost worry-free.Naturally, I will look much younger."

Gloria seemed relieved.

"I'm sorry to make you worry about me."

Nicole looked at Gloria and felt sorry.

Had she come back sooner, perhaps her mother would not have missed her so miserably.

"Silly girl, all parents worry about their children.I feel so blessed to have a sensible daughter like you."

Gloria stroked Nicole's hair.

"Mom, I'll make sure you feel the same all the time."

Gloria burst into laughter upon hearing that.Daniel was coming downstairs and happened to hear the laughter of the two.

"You two look so happy.What is it about?"

Nicole heard the voice and turned to look toward the stairwell.

"Hi, Dad."

"Glad to see you back, Nicole."

When Daniel saw Nicole, all his troubles seemed to have gone away.

"You haven't been back in days.How were you doing at school?"

Daniel and others did not know about Nicole's injury, and when Nicole called the other day, she had only mentioned that she was busy and would not come home for a few days.

"Everything is great.Just that I'm still busy with the sports day and can't come home too often.But after the sports day, I'll have more time."

Nicole used the sports day as a disguise.

"Really? Take care, then.Don't do everything yourself.Instead, let other classmates join you."

Daniel still felt sorry for her, afraid that the sports day would exhaust his precious daughter.

"Okay, Dad.Don't worry."

"Daniel, you don't look good.Are you not feeling well?"

Gloria asked with concern when she saw his face.

"Alas, just don't ask.You won't understand even if I tell you." Daniel looked hapless.

Sean saw Nicole, and instantly something came to mind.

"Dad, since Nicole is back, why don't you—"' During the last business deal, Sebastian had helped the Riddle family because of his relationship with Nicole.So, Sean wanted to try if he could also help this time.

 

Chapter 815

Daniel glanced at Sean.

"We will figure it out ourselves."

Sean, who was hopeful a moment ago, was instantly dejected upon hearing what Daniel said.

Nicole looked at the despondent two and asked, "Dad, is there something happening to the company?"

Daniel glanced at Nicole and sighed, "Alas."

"Don't sigh, Dad.Tell me what happened.Let's figure it out together."

Nicole was distressed to find his father, who had always been smiling, looking so tired today.

Knowing that Daniel was too embarrassed to ask, Sean said, "The Riddle family is now bidding on a project of an international company.

"The size of the project is so large that it is difficult to manage without enough capital, and the Riddle family's financial standing is still not adequate.But it is not completely impossible."

The only problem is the Riddle family has a fifty-fifty chance of winning the project on its own.Besides, there are a lot of companies out there that are eyeing this project.

"Whoever wins this project will sit on an equal footing with Johnston Group.So the Riddle family is also determined to win."

Sean looked at Nicole determinedly.

After listening to what Sean had said, Nicole finally understood and looked at them calmly.

"I know little about the project, but if there's something I can help with, I'll do my best."

"Sean, who is the biggest competitor with the Riddle family now?"

Nicole's thought was clearly organized, and her question was to the point.

"Except for a few lesser-known families, all that is left is the McCarthy family.A large corporation like Johnston Group has its own projects, and it won't be interested in such a project," Sean said with a thoughtful look.

"It's the McCarthy family again," Nicole murmured.

"Sean, just let me know if there is anything I can help with."

"Mr.Wyance seems to have a good relationship with you.Could you ask him if he can help?" Sean looked at Nicole tentatively.

"Mr.Wyance knows many people, but I'm not sure if he has any international connections.But don't worry, I'll ask him."Nicole looked at Sean.

"Thank you.I will have to go now; there are still a lot of things waiting for me to deal with back at the company," Sean said politely.

"It's all right.Don't worry.I will be at home with Dad and Mom." Nicole smiled at him.

"Dad, Mom, I'll go now," Sean said goodbye to Daniel and Gloria as he got up and left.

"How are you going with Jared?" Gloria smiled and looked at Nicole.

"We're fine."

Nicole blushed, looking shy.Gloria could tell that they were getting along well, judging by Nicole's shyness.

"Why don't you invite Jared over for dinner?" Gloria looked at Nicole.

"Not now, Mom.He has been busy lately.He will contact me in advance when he has time."

Nicole took Gloria's arm.

"Alright.What would you like to eat? I will make it for you."

"I like anything that you make."

"Such a sweet talker.Go take a rest upstairs.I will bring the meal up to you in a moment."

"It's alright.You can just call me.I'll go upstairs now."

With that, she went upstairs.Back in her room, Nicole turned on her computer and searched for the ID that the McCarthy family had used before.It did not take long for Nicole to hack into the ID's computer, which was full of information about joint venture projects.
