Ch. 851..855: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 851-855
Chapter 851
Class A once again failed to finish first, and the class teacher’s face sank again. When he saw Ms. Emerson look at him with a proud face and a disdainful look in the eyes, he got even more exasperated.
So he took it out on Norah.
"How did you train your classmates? Do you mind explaining how we lose to Class B in every game? Do you still want to be a class monitor?"
"I want to be a class monitor.I swear I will finish first in the next game to make our class proud.” Norah said timidly, but secretly, she had an evil plan in mind. Soon it was time for Vivian's turns for the relay race.
For the sake of prizes, she had given it all out during the training and done exactly what Nicole told her to doby spending most of her time with her teammates to build up their tacit understanding of each other. Vivian, Lily Moreno, Lulu, and June came to the starting line and performed some warm-up exercises, Nicole kept watching them.
As the four of them looked back at her, she gave them a nod of encouragement. With Nicole’s morale support, their confidence doubled.
At this time, Norah was smiling evilly from the sidelines, as if waiting to see their misfortune or something. “On your marks.” Bang! Lily, as the first baton, handed the baton to June's hand without a hiccup.
June was running parallel to a contestant from Class A but gradually falling behind.Meanwhile, Lulu was waiting anxiously at the relay point, cheering for June in her mind.
'You can do it, June.' The baton was soon passed to Lulu.
Seeing that the Class A contestant had gone ahead of her, she ran as fast as she could.But at this time, she felt a sharp pain in her foot.
Lulu ignored the pain, gritted her teeth, and continued to run toward Vivian. Nicole was watching and had also sense something amiss with Lulu —she knew Lulu could run faster than this.She looked at Norah, who was watching the competition triumphantly on the other side and began to suspect something.
But since the game was still going on, it was impossible to stop the game.
Nicole had no choice but to watch Lulu run and then hand over the baton to Vivian with a painful look on her face. While waiting for the baton, Vivian also noticed something was wrong with Lulu.
But there was no time to worry about that, as her rival was already one step ahead of her.
Once getting the baton, she wasted no time running toward the finish line. Just when everyone thought ClassB would lose the relay race this time, a miracle happened.
Vivian ran with all her strength and crossed the finish line in a burst of speed, barely milliseconds ahead of arrival.
The joyous expression on the class teacher of Class A faded in an instant.He glared at Norah with dissatisfaction and then sat down and ignored her.
“Vivian! Vivian!” Her classmates shouted her name.
This was her first time feeling the warmth from her classmates. But this was not the time for this; Vivian and June rushed to helpLulu back to the rest area.
After Lulu laboriously took off her shoes, everyone saw the blisters on her foot, and it was bleeding. Spencer and Samuel were here to cheer for the team.
But when seeing blood on Lulu's foot, Spencer immediately took her up in his arms and carried her to the infirmary. Lulu was in pain and could not control her expression.
But when Spencer carried her in his arms, she felt it heartwarming, and the painful look on her face eased up somewhat.
She leaned against Spencer's chest to cherish this hard-won moment. Nicole picked up Lulu’s shoes for examination with a grave face and found some hard plastic shrapnel behind the shoe lining. Norah had come over, wanting to amuse herself.
But before she could say anything, her eyes collided with Nicole’s piercing eyes. “If you think of getting any first place in this year’s sports day, perish the thought.You won't even get one." Nicole snapped.
"Isn't it too premature to say that, Nicole? The next game hasn’t started yet.Let's wait and see." Norah glanced at Nicole as if she had done nothing and then at Jack before she left with a sneer. To preventLulu's accident from happening to others, Nicole immediately told her teammates who were about to go on the track.
“Take off your shoes and check them carefully.Put them back on only after you find no anomaly.Alert me at once if you find problems."
"Nicole, I found some hard plastic in my shoes.” Jack pulled the thing out to show Nicole.
Chapter 852
Nicole glanced at all that. "It is exactly what I thought. Does anyone else have it?”
“I have the same problem, too.” Waynetook out the same hard plastic.
"Collect these shoes and hard plastic shrapnel and find someone to keep them,” Nicole instructed.
"Those who have finished the competitions, take off your shoes and put them on others.” Nicole arranged things in an orderly manner.
“The men’s relay race is about to start.All contestants, on your marks." Jack and Wayne put on the shoes that did not fit well and walked to the starting position.
"On your marks."
Bang! The men's relay race had started.
The male students of Class B were wearing shoes that did not fit, but they still overcame difficulties and smoked other contestants, successfully winning first place.
Once again, Norah's class had still failed to finish first.
Up next was Nicole’s game.She would not give Norah a chance to sabotage her performance.
The contestants from Class A stretched.
They picked up the shot and put it out forcefully; she achieved a fairly medium distance.
When her classmates saw the results, they all applauded.
Norah was delighted, as she thought there was finally something she could be proud of.
She looked at Nicole triumphantly.It was Nicole’s turn.
Norah was keeping an eye on her as she thought she could finally see how Nicole would embarrass herself.
Nicole picked up the shot, and everything was set.She glanced sideways at Norah before putting the shot out gently, and the shot flew beyond the farthest line.
Even the referee was stunned for a moment before making the announcement.
“Nicole just broke the record at 21 meters.She won first place." Everyone, irrespective of classes, went apes.
They all looked surprised.
“Nicole is incredible.I heard that she made a record distance during the training.I didn’t expect her to do this today.”
“Absolutely.That's farther than the national champion could achieve, right?" The students who watched the competition were all talking about it.
Norah's face turned pale, and her arrogant attitude was no more.Her class teacher’s expression had completely collapsed.
"Norah, what have you all practiced all this while? Is this what you all have got? The other classes have won all first places.You're a real disappointment to me." The class teacher said angrily and then left the scene.
Norah had worked hard to train her classmates , but she still could not beat Nicole.
She stomped her feet in anger and frustration.
"Nicole, why did you come to the Royal Creek Institute to mess up my life?”
In the following competitions, Nicole showed her strength and won first place in all the games.
It stunned her classmates and teachers.She now became famous throughout the school, and Ms.
Emerson felt very proud of her.
It was not just Norah who saw Nicole's success and fame.
Snow and Raine were also watching the eleventh-grade competition.
They all were pissed at seeing Nicole’s success.
"What has she done that she could take first place in all the competitions? Something must be amiss.” Raine would rather believe that Nicole hadcheated.
"Snow, it is your turn now." Some classmates called out to her again.
“Here I come.” Snow hurried over.
Because of the lack of intense training, Snow became physically exhausted halfway through the competition.She finished last.
Raine was slightly better than Snow but did not make it into the top three.
Chapter 853
"Exactly. She is also from the Riddle family, yet nothing like Nicole. Such a stark contrast.”
“If I were here, I would have been too embarrassed to stay here."
"Shut your dirty mouth.I'll cut off your tongue if you say it again." Raine stepped out angrily, trying to argue with them,but Snow stopped her.
“Don’t bark up the wrong tree.Nicole is the one to blame.If not for her, these people would not have taunted us.” Snow looked at Nicole with frosty eyes.
It had now moved on to pole jump, which was an event June loved.
After warming up, she walked to the field.But as she walked past Snow, a leg was quietly extended, tripping her up.She fell to the ground, injuring her palms and knees.
June had no choice but to give up the competition and let her substitute take her place, Nicole had previously signed up for all the events.
As some of her classmates liked to take part in some of these events, she gave way to her classmates while she would be a substitute .
Everything had gone on smoothly, and her classmates had also performed well.But in June’s turn, an accident happened.
Nicole asked Samuel to take care of June while she came onto the field.
The audience rose in a hullabaloo when they saw Nicole again.
"Nicole, go, go, go!" Nicole swept her eyes over her classmates, who were cheering her, then picked up the pole and launched it into the air.
She broke the national record.
The TV station had recorded her wonderful action, and there was thunderous applause from the audience.
Nicole enjoyed more fame and grabbed even more limelight.
This year’s sports day was concluded.
At first, Snow and Raine were expecting to see Nicole embarrass herself.
But things did not turn out as expected, and they had indirectly helped Nicole gain more fame instead.
So they left the scene in exasperation.
The TV station requested to interview Nicole, but she declined it and recommended Gary as the class representative for an interview.
Gary never liked to appear in front of the camera, but since Nicole had asked, he had no choice but to agree.
Nicole was thinking of going to the infirmary to check on Lulu’s foot injury, but she heard that Lulu had been back in the dormitory.So she went straight back there.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Lulu sitting against the wall.
Nicole came up to her and asked with concern, "Does it still hurt? What did the doctor say?”
“I feel better after seeing you." Lulu looked at Nicole with a smile.
"Silly girl, am I your panacea?"
"Nicole , how were the subsequent events going?” Lulu was injured and left the scene early, so she missed a lot of the actions.
“It was awesome.Our class has taken the most first place, and you share part of the credit,” Nicole said.
“Really? That is amazing.Do you know that our class has never won first place before? Had it not been for you becoming the class monitor, we would have remained at the bottom of the barrel.Thanks to you for giving us training.Nicole , you are awesome.” Lulu was genuinely happy.
“You’re wrong.It’s not my credit alone.It’s the result of everyone working together.Class B is the best!" Nicole was not carried away but remained humble even though she had scored so many firsts.
"Yes, Class B is the best!" Lulu shouted in the dormitory.
"Where is June? Why didn't I see her back?" Lulu was asking when June walked in slowly from outside.
"I'm back."
"June, how did you get hurt, too?" Lulu was taken aback, her heart skipping a beat at the sight of the bandage on June's leg.
Nicole stepped up and helped her sit down.
"What the hell is going on?"
"Before the last pole jump event, I accidentally tripped and fell.” June was disappointed that she did not get to compete.
Chapter 854
"You should have been more careful. Now Nicole is the only person who hasn’t been injured and could move around freely in the dormitory.” What should have been a word of concern coming out of Lulu's mouth turned out to be a little funny.
The three of them looked at each other and burst into laughter.
Suddenly there was a knock at the dormitory’s door.Nicole went to answer the door.It was Spencer and Samuel.
“Oh, my God.You guys actually came to the girl's dormitory?" Nicole exclaimed.
"Is Lulu here?" "Is June here?" Nicole could immediately tell why the two guys came.
“I will leave you guys to it.I will leave first, as I still have something to do.” Nicole actually did not want to be a third wheel here, so she left.
She came in front of the classroom and pushed open the door.
Ms.Emerson was excitedly praising everyone.
When she saw Nicole, she immediately invited Nicole to the podium.
"Nicole has done great today, and because of that, our class has become the envy of teachers and students in the school.Please give Nicole a big round of applause.” Ms.Emerson took the lead, and warm applause from everyone followed.
Nicole hurriedly motioned for everyone to calm down.
“Ms.Emerson, the honor belongs to all the students, and everyone's performance has exceeded expectations.” Nicole praised everyone instead of taking all the credit for herself.
“Yes, Nicole is right.It’s our collective honor.But it was Nicole who trained you all.So I have decided that during my class in the afternoon, you all may move freely.” Ms.Emerson had never been so happy as she was today.
In the past, Class A had always been outperforming Class B.
Today, she could finally hold her head high.
Vivian suddenly remembered that there were prizes given for this year’s sports day.So she took the opportunity to ask Ms.Emerson.
"Didn't you say that there were prizes for taking first place?” “I was so happy that I almost forgot suchan important thing.Anyone follows me to get the prizes?"
"I will go." Vivian was the first to raise her hand.
So Ms.Emerson took Vivian and a few others to collect the prizes.
Because their class had won too many prizes, Nicole, as the class representative , had only received a symbolic prize and the prize list on the podium of the competition.
After a while, Vivian and her classmates returned with boxes of prizes, and Ms.
Emerson instructed Vivian and others to distribute them to everyone.
They were all happy to receive the prize.
"Just as Nicole said, these prizes are all big-name items."
“Nicole couldn’t be lying.And I'm grateful to be in the same class as Nicole.Otherwise , these awesome prizes would have belonged to someone else.”
“You’re right.When I went out to collect the prizes, people from the other classes looked at us enviously.”
“Nicole, thank you.Had you not trained with us, we wouldn't have gotten these big-name prizes.”
“We’re sorry that we opposed you before this." Those students who had worked against Nicole during the training apologized to her now.
"When I see everyone has a prize in their hand, I know that our previous efforts are worth it.Let's forget the past, and remember today that we can do it as long as we want it hard enough.” Watching her once naughty classmates approve of Nicole, she knew she could never change Nicole's place in the class.
As much as she did not want to concede defeat, she no longer dared to be foolhardy now.She fiddled with the prize in her hand as she walked over to Nicole and whispered a thank you.
Nicole looked back.
When she saw it was Vivian, she complimented her, "This results from your efforts, and you should thank yourself.You have won four first places for the class."
Vivian was transfixed for a second, not expecting Nicoleto praise her.She seemed to have found a little sense of existence in front of Nicole, and she started to admire her.
After the sports day, the school announces a few days off.Nicole was carrying her backpack and was on her way to return home when she ran into Harvey.
"Nicole, the tender day of the Aegis Corporation project will soon arrive.Shall we discuss the bidding ?” Harvey asked.
He knew that this was a rare opportunity where he could spend time with Nicole alone.If not for Aegis Corporation's tender, the Riddle family would not have worked with the Ellison family, and he would not have had an excuse to see Nicole so often.
Chapter 855
"Okay, let's go to Riddle Corporation."
Nicole felt that since they were discussing the tender, Sean's office was the most ideal place as he had more comprehensive material.
Harvey did not dare to object.He was fine as long as Nicole agreed to meet him.So he drove Nicole to Riddle Corporation.
"Why didn't you make a phone call before you came so that I could make preparations, Nicole?"
Sean ran into Nicole and Harvey when he came downstairs.
"Are you going out???" Nicole asked when he saw Sean with a briefcase in his hand.
"I need to discuss a project with a client." Sean shrugged helplessly.
"It's okay.I will leave you to it.We're here just to discuss the tender."
"Okay.Steve knows where the files are.I'll call him and ask him to come down to meet you." Sean pulled out his phone and was about to call Steve.
"No, it's alright.We will go up and find him." Nicole stopped Sean.
"I'm really sorry, Harvey. Maybe we can go for dinner when I am back later."
Sean then hurried away.
Nicole and Harvey took the elevator up to the 36-floor, and Nicole said not a word to Harvey in the elevator.
As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they saw Steve standing there, greeting them.Nicole shook her head, knowing that Sean must have told him.
"You're quick, Steve."
"Sean said he bumped into you two downstairs and asked me to receive you two.He has got to go, as he has an appointment," Steve explained.
"Welcome to Riddle Corporation." Steve politely shook hands with Harvey.
"My pleasure." Harvey smiled politely.
"This way, please." Steve gestured.
"Why didn't you two make a phone call before coming? You almost caught me off guard." Steve glanced at Harvey.
"You sound exactly like Sean."
"We bumped into each other on the street, and the suggestion to discuss the tender here was an impromptu decision," Nicole said.
Steve led them to the conference room and sat down.
"Please give me a moment.I'll go get the files."
It did not take long for Steve to come back with all the files relating to the Aegis Corporation's tender.
"That's a lot of files."
Harvey looked at the pile of files stacking up together.He was looking for an excuse to be alone with Nicole.
With so many files in front of him, it could take them hours to read through them.
"Let's get started." Nicole just wanted to finish the discussion with Harvey as soon as possible so that she could go home and rest.
"Nicole, take a look at this." Harvey deliberately took a file and leaned closer to Nicole, asking for her opinion.
"What is it?"
Nicole could not see any problem.
"A multinational corporation as large as Aegis Corporation will surely want to give their projects to companies with a solid background, as reputation should be the most important thing for them."
