My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 867

My Wife is a Hacker by Summer Chapter 867

Chapter 867 "Not afraid? I'll see if you're scared." Nicole reached out and pinched Jared around the waist.

There was a suddenknock on the door.

Jared immediately put away his smile and sorted his attire before saying, "Come in." "Mr.Johnston, everyone is here." "Okay, you go first." "I have a meeting to attend." Jared lookedreluctant to go.

"You get busy.

I should go home too." Nicole stood up and walked out of the office with Jared.

Back at the Riddle Mansion, she found there was a hive of activity there.

While wondering why she walked straight inside.

Damien, Dillon, and Dexter were all in the house.

"Daniel, we are here to congratulate you on behalf of Father for your successful bid," Damien said.

"Thank you.

Our success has kind of made the entire Riddle family proud," Daniel said modestly.

"Daniel, I suppose it wasn't easy to win the tender bid, right?" Dexter asked.

"It's really difficult.

There were many powerful companies bidding for it, and some rivals were trying to undermine us," Daniel said with a long sigh.

"The good thing was that Sean and Nicole had risen to the challenge and still studied the tender seriously.

Together with Harvey's help, we won the tender at last." Daniel was proud of it.

"Daniel, that's just a one-sided view.

The success of your bid this time is mostly because of Damien.

If it wasn't for him, Harvey would not have joined hands with you guys.

He could have bid himself," Karen said disapprovingly.

Daniel glanced at Karen awkwardly.

Knowing her character and that everyone was here today to congratulate them, he did not want to refute her in front of everyone.

So he could only smile and remain silent.

Sean heard what Karen said and was upset.

He got up and went to the dining room, where he saw Nicole sit, and he asked, "When did you come back?"

"It's been a while. What are these people doing here?" Nicole asked.

"They say they're here to congratulate us, but their every word reeks of jealousy." Sean glanced at the three families in the hall, and Nicole shook her head.

Meanwhile, Damien was self-satisfied after hearing what Karen said.

Suddenly, the landline phone rang, and Damien, who was closest to the phone, picked it up.

"Hello? This is the Riddle family.

Who is this?" Damien asked bluntly.

"Hi, this is Scott Harmon. May I speak to Nicole?" Scott only had the phone number of the Riddle family, not Nicole's mobile phone number, so he called the house phone.

Hearing the name, Damien immediately sat up upright with a serious face.

"A moment, please, Mr.Harmon. I will ask Nicole over right away."
